Pokemon-go – the maximum gym badge tier

pokemon-go

Recently, there was a gym rework. One of the new features is that you obtain gym badges by participating in different activities related to individual gyms.

It is known that you can get Bronze, Silver and Gold gym badges (Source: Personal Experience), but I am wondering if there are any more tiers after Gold? If so, what is the amount of Badge XP required? It could possibly be something like 100 * 5 ^ ( x – 1 ) for tier x , where x_1 is bronze. Am I correct?

Best Answer

The following amount of Badge-EXP (BXP) is needed to level up your Gym badge:

Gym Badge Tier // BXP needed // BXP total

  • Basic // 1 BXP
  • Bronze // 500 BXP // 500 BXP
  • Silver // 3500 BXP // 4000 BXP
  • Gold // 26,000 BXP // 30,000 BXP

Received BXP rewards for interacting with the gym:

  • Adding a Pokémon to the Gym (+ 100 BXP)
  • Holding a Pokémon at the Gym (+1 BXP per minute)
  • Defeating a defending Pokémon (CP of Pokémon defeated divided by 10)
  • Winning a Raid battle at the Gym (+ 1000 BXP)
  • Feeding a Berry to a Pokémon (+ 10 BXP & 20 Stardust)
