No, being successful in the game requires players to truly explore the world around them and collect as many creatures as possible to add to their collection or send to Professor Willow. Pokémon GO Gyms and Pokémon Go PokeStops form the core mechanics of the game.
Pokémon GO Gyms are where you will do all your battles in the game. Each one is controlled by a team where you can pick them up. Once a Gym is controlled by your team, you can train against the leader of that Gym. PokeStops are how you get extra items and upgrades that would otherwise require you to purchase Coins through the iTunes App Store and Google Play Store.

Pokémon GO Gyms Details
It is unlocked when you reach level 5, Pokémon GO Gyms are part of the game’s zone control mechanism. After unlocking them, players are asked to join one of the game’s three different teams. Blue, yellow and red to fight for control of Gyms. Teams are also known by their special names: Instinct, Mystic, and Valor.
Gyms appear as rising waypoints on the game’s map. Their colors change depending on which team is currently controlling them. When a player becomes the Pokémon GO Gym Leader, their creatures are added to the waypoint on everyone’s map as a kind of protector.
Fighting in Pokémon GO Gyms
If you are a member of a team that does not control the gym, you go there to fight the creatures left behind by the members of that team. Defeat successfully enough of the creatures they leave behind and you will lower the prestige of that Gym.
Beat them all and you can claim the Gym for your team and leave behind a Pokémon of your very own. Leaving a creature behind to defend the gym is the only way for players to earn Pokémon GO Coins without spending real money. You will need to beat the entire team there to be successful.
Creatures you leave behind will not be returned to your collection until they are defeated.
Training in Pokémon GO Gyms
Pokémon GO Gyms have their own levels that govern how many creatures can be left there at a time. Helping to level up the Gym means players can drop more creatures to protect it. Therefore, it is difficult to hang for long in low level Gyms.
If it’s a Gym your team already controls, you can battle the Gym leader’s Pokémon to gain XP for your Trainer. The training requires you to take on the entire remaining team there with a single Pokémon.
