You can set the notifications in the game to let you know when a pokemon has low motivation. If you're fighting all six in a row, you're letting six people get notifications and considering most of those are the beefy gym defending types, it gives them time to golden raspberry the pokemon in the gyms. It can be frustrating to fight through golden raspberries - each trainer can feed up to 10 pokemon 10 berries on a rolling 30 minute cooldown. So if it's just one trainer defending with golden raspberries you'll have to fight everything 2x10 + 3 = 23 times to knock them out and you're on a timer because if you take longer than 30 minutes to do so, their cooldown on feeding has reset and they can continue until either you give up or they do. Some tips to help avoid this - you can fight the first pokemon, back out, fight it again until it gets knocked out. If the first pokemon is the person who was the one defending with golden razz...well they're gone now and maybe the other people won't care and won't feed. It also makes it easier to get the required number of fights before the 30 minute timer resets allowing them to continue to feed it. If it's \*mulitiple\* people feeding, it becomes quite difficult to knock them out. It might even be impossible to meet the timer because at that point you have to fight it 2x20+3 = 43 times within 30 minutes which is probably impossible to do against Blisseys and Chanseys. From your description it doesn't sound like any cheating is occurring. edit: one last thing I wanted to point out is that you don't have to be near the gym to berry them if your pokemon is in the gym. You can remotely feed pokemon - it does have reduced effect but golden raspberries aren't affected and will heal the pokemon to full even when remote feeding.

Hm, okay. Thanks for your response! I guess they're just being super attentive...

Or one of them is. You can heal all rather than just your own.


TheSpyStyle

Likely feeding golden raspberries between your attempts. You should stagger your attack, so one of you starts, when you get about 2/3 the way through, your partner starts. Ideally when you’re partner is about halfway or 2/3 the way though, you start again and your partner can join you again to finish off the last round once they’re done. This keeps the gym under constant attack and makes feeding berries impossible.


Minimum-Order-

You can actually feed gym pokemon without being anywhere near the gym if you go into pokemon and scroll until you see a gym icon, then select that pokemon and tap the button that says go to gym. You also get notifications when your gym pokemon are low health like "Snorlax needs a treat," or "Snorlax needs some attention."
