seriously, if every time that someone asked "is this game still alive?" (in various ways of asking that)....i would get a nickel....i would get enough money to buy Niantic... LOL
Amen to that. I hear it so much "LOL Is anyone even still playing that? No, I don't think they are. It's totally dead." Meanwhile gyms are changing hands at a higher rate than ever, groups are organized to play together, and even more stuff is happening or coming out monthly. Just because people don't see everyone walking around with it going doesn't mean it doesn't happen at all anymore.
Yeah, it's nice being able to actually get into a gym for a bit and get some coins.
Tell me about it. Off the previous gym format, I had maybe 70 coins? Rare to get in, rarer to stay in. Now, I've been able to buy a pokemon box upgrade and several incubators without paying a dime. There's someone on my way to and from work who keeps claiming two side-by-side gyms for Mystic and putting in something like a Raticate or a Clefairy. I can usually grab a space in one or both of them. It's great. And I love the gym tracking. I'm going on vacation next month and can't wait to add some gyms from the other side of the country to the list!
I had the best experience with Pokemon Go recently. I spotted a Zapdos (one of my favourite Pokemon) by a gym near my place, which is in a suburban area and not very busy for Pokemon Go players. To my surprise, a whole group of people started showing up. They told me that there's a Facebook page for our area with about 300 people in it. Since joining, I've constantly had other people to go do raid battles with in my area. It's been great!
If you're in a more suburban area and having the same problem, try searching for Facebook groups for Pokemon Go. You'll probably find some too.

EEEEE! Third generation Pokemon just appeared. And the game has weather now! And battle parties!
I've enjoying watching the in-game snow as much as the RL snow and keeping an eye out for the newbies! I just got my first one, a Gulpin.
