Pokemon GO: All Known Glitches and How to Fix Them

Gym Glitch

What is it?: During a gym battle, an opponent’s Pokemon will drop to 1HP and not die, regardless of what you do. None of your attacks will affect the Pokemon and if you restart the gym it has a chance to lock you out of even using it.

Solution: No official word from Niantic. However, it is possible to wait it out. Sometimes the game will reconnect and the battle will continue, though the time for this is wildly inconsistent. If this does happen, we recommend letting the opponent Pokemon knock yours out so you don’t end up being shut out from using the gym entirely. While it may cost you a few potions, it’s better than the game completely glitching out on you.
