Pro Tacktics – How Gyms Work In Pokémon Go
If you've played Pokémon Go somewhere with a reasonable population, you've probably already seen a huge Snorlax or a giant Lapras towering on top of a local gym.
While taking down these enormous creatures might be an impossible task for your scrappy crew led by an intrepid Zubat, did you know you can actually team up with a few friends to pile on one of these giant opponents and take the gym down as a serious underdog? You and your friends (or even just a random person at the gym from the same team) can unite and take on enemies that would be impossible alone, then stack the gym up and reap the rewards.
Discover how to pull it off and more about the gym system in this short episode of Pro Tacktics!

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
