:D I am pretty happy with finally getting to do that! I live in a coastal town, not exactly a big city, so when gyms hit level 6 or so they tend to stay in that team's hands until you get something like a group all in the same team visiting (my neighborhood Valor lvl8 gym got taken by Instinct the night of a theater performance, hah, and one gym nearby always gets taken over by Mystic when there's a football game on...)

I just had a lot of revives -- over 50 -- and a ton of potions. Looking back on it now, I think I could have played the whole thing a lot better; if I'd tried harder to dodge Solar Beam, for instance, I'd have gotten through lvl 8 to 6 faster, ahah. I can see the gym from home, so I did have time to prepare, in terms of planning my attacking lineup beforehand. Then it was a matter of adapting things once I started fighting since, for instance, one Exeggutor there had a really deadly moveset, another one was much less dangerous than its CP made it appear, etc.

It um took me quite some time, too, so I made sure to bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated XDDD Actually came in super handy since I was there for over an hour.
