The first problems arrive at the new Pokémon GO gyms

Just a couple of days ago (June 19) we announced that Niantic was beginning to release one of the new Pokémon GO updates that they plan to release soon. We began, then, to wonder, thinking about whether the news that it brought with it could be enough reason to re-engage the millions of players who have fallen by the wayside. Among the news we announced was the great idea of being able to remotely feed any Pokémon we had guarding a gym.
The 'telebaya' is not yet possible
Niantic, through its official Twitter account, has announced that it has had to temporarily deactivate the possibility of sending berries remotelyto Pokémon in gyms. They simply claim that they had to do it to correct a mistake. Hopefully this new option can be made available to all players again sooner rather than later.
We”™ve temporarily disabled the ability to send Berries to Pokémon defending Gyms through the Pokémon info screen to resolve an issue.

The problem that occurred with this remote berry shipment was related to the maximum amount of berries. A Pokémon trainer could only feed their Pokémon in a gym with 10 berries. What has happened? That at a distance that limit of berries has ended up disappearing.Soon the rogue commanded: many users began to send many more berries than allowed.
Pokémon gyms and their problems
At the end of June, Niantic released an update in which the gyms were the protagonists. In this way, the raids and a new system of collecting pokemonedas were activated. Previously, any trainer received a pack of 10 pokecoins for each new day spent in the gym. Now, instead of making it easier to collect, the game made it much more difficult. After the update, the trainer received one coin per hour of defense from the gym. Currency that you received only at the time the Pokémon was defeated. The more gyms there are, the lower the probability of getting a single coin, since they could barely make it to the hour of permanence.On the contrary, if a trainer spent too much time in a gym, by not being defeated, he would not receive anything either.
And to this we must add a recent bug or failure of the game in which no coach received a single coin. This bug, recognized by Niantic itself, made it impossible to collect coins, leaving the trainer without rewards... so the gym system was totally useless.
With the new raid system, in which a number of trainers could team up to battle a strong Pokémon in a gym, there was also controversy. To be able to access a raid, the trainer must have a pokémon of at least level 35. Although this level has already been lowered to 31, access to raids is still very limited.

Other Features in New Pokémon GO Updates
- A new information icon on the screen about how a particular Pokémon was caught.
- The trainer who successfully completes a foray inside the gym will be able to spin the photodisc.
- A new search system among your pokémons collected
At the moment there is no news that these new updates of Pokémon GO have failed or do not appear properly. Of course, to send the berries to the remote pokémons, we will still have to wait a while. We will be attentive to a new note from Niantic in this regard.
