Say a red team gym with 7000 Prestige has three Pokemon defending it, a 500 CP Golbat, a 700 CP Pinser, and a 1500 CP Snorlax.

As a blue team member you attack the gym and defeat the Golbat and the Pinser but the Snorlax takes out all your remaining Pokemon.

Will the gyms prestige go up, down, or be unchanged?



Best Answer

Prestige of gym will go down if you defeat at least one defending pokemon, e.g. the first in line.

Thus, stack your team for the fight accordingly - be sure your line up will beat the first.

Note; the autogenerated suggestion is not always the best line up.

Depending on the CP of your pokemon's vs the defending pokemon the amount of prestige lost and XP won will vary.
