My Pokémon's HP and CP increased, but unsure why (GO)?

Did you power it up, if not it must have been from the friendly or enemy gyms. Hoped this helped.
I put my Vaporeon on a gym last week and when I checked it after a couple of days, its CP had increased by 211. I didn’t level up as a trainer while it was defending, but would have been unable to power it up myself anyway, as you can’t do anything with your Pokemon while they’re sitting on a gym.
I have only found a few posts from players about this happening. I know some Pokemon have had their CP boosted to balance things out etc., but I thought it meant the CP cap had been raised, not that they could be boosted just by sitting in your inventory or whilst defending a gym.
Maybe it was a one-time boost to help with the balancing out issue? We’ll see.
