To be honest there is no point to gyms apart from the bonus of 10, because I levelled insanely quick from the get go I was able to hold over 20 gyms at one point and some for over 2 days, but you quickly realise you can't defend it no matter how high level you are if your being attacked by 2 or 3 plus people at once I just stopped all together.
Well car lolWhat the hell. Are you spending money on this, or do you just not have a car?
And what the heck kind of battery life...
You must not want to catch 'em all then.
Shinies are rare and hard to get. It's the thrill of the hunt, and since they're different (it's more than a slight difference, btw...Shiny Ninetales for example is light blue when the normal one is tan/orange) from normal Pokemon they're worth it to catch even though they don't have a separate dex entry. I mean, who wouldn't turn down the opportunity for a red Gyarados???
Plus when you've already beaten everything in the game and caught all the normal Pokemon, finding Shinies gives you something challenging to do.
If Pokemon Go had Shinies it would be awesome, though I feel like if they do add them you'll have to pay for them.
That wasn't the only channel I'm subscribed to where it popped up either. 
Sweet. I wonder what they'll do with the legendaries. Them being just rare might be okay, but I guess Niantic could just as well do something like special events or whatever.
I can.
