Next we are going to proceed to give you a few tips or advice so that your Pokécoins account rises as if you were the Wolf of Wall Street versioned to Pokémon Go. The point of this is that consigas earn those coins in no time so that you are much more effective in your time within the Pokémon Go video game.

  • Visit the pokémon gyms every day and don't miss one or you will be ineffective:

As we have told you, we are talking about what this is the only free method to get pokecoinsTherefore, you will have to defend gyms on a daily basis to get the most out of each and every one of them, without leaving one behind. If you play every day, one of the main tasks that you should not forget is to approach each and every one of the pokemon gyms dominated by your team (as we mentioned earlier, you choose this team at account level 5) so that you can leave in them to your Pokémon generating the coins. If there are no gyms of yours nearby that are under your team's control, Try to team up with other friendly pokémon starters to conquer a nearby gym and thus be able to farm those daily coins easily.

  • Look for gyms with a low influx of Pokémon trainers:

Also try to go for gyms that may be difficult to access so that it is very unlikely that other trainers of the enemy team will conquer them quickly and lose the opportunity to generate coins in it. To give you an idea and make your own calculations based on your area, with about 5 and 10 gyms of medium difficulty large amounts of Pokémon Go game coins can be generated.

  • You must defend the gyms at the best possible times for this:

You have to take this point into account because in this way you will not waste time. There are very specific hours of the day, such as during the hours that people work or also school hours in which many players will be in high school, it can also be during the night or very early in the morning ... You have to find your perfect schedule that works best for you to leave your Pokémon defending and thus generate the coins without no attack or problem that interrupts that farming. This is one of the points that you must take into account the most to be effective. The schedule matters, and a lot. Make things easy if you can avoid stacks and you will get more coins in Pokémon Go.

  • Keep in mind that it will be much better if the gyms are far apart:

This is something that would be ideal, in order to hinder the enemy team but not essential. If you get the conquered Pokémon gyms to be far apart, you will have a greater chance that the enemy team does not conquer two in a row and thus your Pokémon continue to generate the pokecoins without any problem. This is ideal if you get it because that way you will avoid them being able to conquer you one by one and have to move or abandon being satisfied with a single conquest. As a tip we can tell you that a distance of approximately between medium and a kilometer, or even a little more if possible, would be the ideal thing for someone to give up on conquering another gym. 

  • Use your defensive Pokémon to defend your gyms by conquering:

This is logical as you will be realizing but there are many people who do not apply it and easily lose their gyms. You will have to play those Pokémon that have greater defensive power, that is, you must bring out the power of the Pokémon on your team with better defensive attributes. If for whatever reason you still don't have any with good defensive attributes, here are a few examples that you should capture to better defend each pokémon gym:  Snorlax, Umbreon, Vaporeon, Steelix, Blissey or Lapras.

Finally remember that it is important that cures your Pokémon with berries in order to give them greater motivation and that they can resist the defense of the gym for much longer. Try to get each Pokémon to stay defending for 4-8 hours per gym, then switch to another defensive Pokémon on your team.
