Can I win a gym battle or do I just need to survive?
I recently took over a gym that was being held by a single Flareon. I started the battle with a strong Vaporeon (lower level, but with type advantage). I got the Flareon down to a sliver of HP left while my Vaporeon was around 75%. At that point, attacks seemed to just stop dealing damage. The Flareon took out my Vaporeon, and then my next Vaporeon, and my next Pokémon! With my fourth, I only attacked once, and then just dodged every attack until time ran out. Once time ran out, the Flareon fell over on its own (I hadn't attacked recently) and I won.
Can I knock out the last gym Pokémon, or do I have to just survive until the time runs out? Is there some special move or item that can prevent a Pokémon from being knocked out?

How do I win a gym battle in Pokemon go?
Every ten minutes you have a Pok\xe9mon in a Gym, that Pok\xe9mon will earn a Pok\xe9 Coin up to 50 Pok\xe9 Coins per day. So, if you five Pok\xe9mon in Gyms for 60 minutes, you'll earn 30 Pok\xe9 Coins. In 100 minutes, 50 Pok\xe9 Coins, and 120 minutes, still 50 Pok\xe9 Coins.What do you get for winning a gym?
Gyms are points of interest found throughout the world where Trainers can battle the Pok\xe9mon of rival teams. Trainers from opposing teams battle for control of the Gyms. Each Gym can have up to six Pok\xe9mon assigned to defend it.an EPIC battle for infinite CLOUT to decide (once and for all) which Pokémon type is better
