Hard to reach arenas should reward mor
Yesterday, i went for a hike in the french alps. It was a challenging hike for me, 7.5 kms, 600 meters uphill, took us about 5 hours to complete.
After having climbed for 2 hours+ and being absolutely dead physically, my friend and I reached the summit, to be greated by an outstanding view. Damn that was worth it. We picknicked up there and stayed half an hour or so. At one moment, i thought i'd open pokemon go and nominate that christian cross, which was planted at the summit, as a new pokestop.
Low and behold, the pokestop already existed. In fact, it was a gym. Inside, ONE pokemon, from team red.
Poor lad was stuck there for 213 days. Kicked him out, felt as if i should release him.
I felt bad for the guy. He hiked, as myself and my friend, for 2+ hours uphill, got his pokemon there for 213 days, and... he's gotten 50 gold pieces.
That's it. No more, no less. Even worse, had he gotten his 50 of the day already, he'd get his pokemon back empty handed.
Shame.
If you read this, at least you enjoyed the view, the hike, the stories, and hopefully you got 50 coins out of your pokemon. It has come back now, feel free to put it back in another gym for even longer. You're welcome
