When does your pokemon get CP at a gym?
I went to a friendly gym and battled the lowest player and won multiple times, enough to up the gym level and leave my Ratticate there. However his CP is still 313. I thought the purpose of friendly fighting was to increase CP for your pokemon. What am I missing?
Best Answer
One point to clarify from Bluerex, is that you can get the Defenders reward (10 gold coins and 500 stardust) whether you are the gym leader or not. So far there are no extra benefits from being the gym leader except for showing off your high level Pokemon (compared to others in that gym). I guess your Pokemon in the gym has a little more security as the lower level Pokemon need to be removed before your's does.
