PokeGyms are a much different mechanism that those known from other Pokemon games.
There are couple of different features of the Gyms, which are described further on in this chapter.
Find the Gym first.
Much like the Pokestops, the Gym has to be approached first, before it can be interacted with.
Repeat this process several times, and the Gym will be available for you to capture.
Now, you have to place a Pokemon there, and the Gym will belong to your team.
Conquering the Gym is but a beginning.
Now you should probably hold it.
Every gym has its own prestige level.
Every prestige level allows to add another Pokemon to the Gym.
Gym level 5 allow to place five protecting Pokemons within it.
Every Pokemon provides 10 Pokecoins every 21 hours.
Having 5 Pokemons in a Gym will give you 50 Pokecoins every 21 hours.
Fighting for control is about getting the Gym’s prestige down to 0.
