Do I have to physically return a gym to retrieve a pokemon when the gym is defeated?
I'm thinking about leaving my Vaporeon at the gym near where I work. I know that I might be lucky to keep it there one or two days, but darnit, I wanna do it. So if when the gym falls, do I need to physically return to it to get my pokemon back?
