Gym rechallenge timer?-
« on: March 12, 2012, 05:22:03 pm »
I was wondering if there was an official gym rechallenge timer in place, expecially now that it is just a battle.

Is there one? I was under the impression that it was a 3 hour time wait. Any light on the subject?

3 hour wait is correct

Thanks Ice for clarifying that.
 
I'll set mine for 3 hours, I figure that's fair and doesn't allow badge farming for people who can obviously stomp me. I think it's fair also since there is no more course at all, and it is just a fight.
 
Thanks!

3 hours isnt really fair. but unfortunately its the rule. I think all gyms should be standard 1 hour wait. and maybe a 2 or 3 challenge limit per day.
What you dont understand is now that parkour is gone. Most gym challenges will last almost no time at all. meaning a 3 hour wait time is just an excuse for gym leaders to be lazy.
Its simple. You either be a gym leader for the fun of it or you dont. Its silly being a gym leader then being lazy by making challenges wait 3 hours

Thank you for your input, Archie. I like the idea of a max challenge per day idea. Is that legal, 1ce, or what be your thoughts? I figure if the rechallenege time was so short, farming or trying to farm would be an issue of the badges.

I thought 3hrs gives time to train, go do other things, and gives more of a mystique/ specialness to gym battles.
