    We all know that Chansey is one of the best Pokemon to use when trying to raise the Prestige of a Gym. The high HP combined with low CP make him a great option to exploit the mismatch in CP levels. But I'm looking for other combinations.

    I have a favorite bar that happens to have a Gym, so while I'm enjoying a few beers, I was going to try to level up the Gym as much as I could by myself. So I was looking for great combinations to place at the Gym for getting as much prestige points as quickly as possible. Back when I was a noob about training at gyms, I remember getting 800+ Prestige points Attacking using an Exeggcute, but cant remember what was Defending ...

    So I'm planning to try this one:

    Attacker - Charmander - 503 CP 53 HP Ember/Flameburst - should get STAB
    Defender - Parasect - 994 CP 81 HP

    Based on the formula P = 500*D/A, I should get 988 Prestige points

    Thoughts? Suggestions?
     
    if im with a group then we put in a medium level (1000CP) Parasect, Venomoth, Dugtrio, Primeape, Rapidash, Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan or Pinsir and then everyone can attack it with something half the CP and win to gain extra prestige quickly. For most of those listed above there is a pokemon that has super effective and STAB against it but is resistant to the defending pokemons attacks
