First Gym Challenge: Tips & Strategy Guide
1 The simple trick to complete the challenge is to gather all the Wooloo without them scattering around too much.
2 To do this, make sure to chase the flock while running from left to right. This way the flock will push themselves at the center.
3 On the other hand, if a few Wooloo gets seperated, chase them back towards the flock.
4 Besides the Wooloo, you can avoid battling the Trainers. Go to an opposite direction and make sure they are facing the other way.
5 There is no deduction when you do not defeat the Gym Trainers. It will not affect the Gym Challenge by doing so, but if you want to challenge the Trainers, check the How to Beat the Trainers section.
