This whole in-person raiding crap might make a little bit of sense if Niantic attempted to make it easier to connect with other trainers or somehow funnel trainers towards the same gyms. I see familiar names in gyms, sometimes when I'm attacking a gym those people will actually jump in on it, but without running around in a 4 block radius loudly shouting, I'll never ever know who those people are. 10 gyms in that 4 block radius and 3 raids going on, even if people all went out in a 20 minute span to do in-person raiding there is a 0.05% chance all of the players congegrate at the same gym and join the battle in the same 2 minute window. Everyone just passes each other in this game like ships in the night.
It's astonishing that there still isn't any in-game tool to let nearby players or friends know that you're about to raid or that gym has lobby going on. It's laughable that they're trying to make this social game while giving zero in-game tools to organize anything. I think this is nice attempt to incentivise players to raid together for mutual reward but you are right, if this succeeds, it's because of coincidence or group formed outside the game and most likely organized in app not made by Niantic
Yeah, at the very least I’d be more willing to do in person raiding if when the egg pops up to announce an upcoming raid, you could indicate “Interested” or “Going” so I can get an idea if there’s other players meeting up at a particular gym or if there’s more people showing interest in another area gym I can walk to.
For what it's worth, the Chinese rip-off of Pokemon Go has a chat-like function where people can click a button to announce that they're in a raid lobby and anyone who sees it can click to instantly open up that lobby and join the raid from afar.
I'm in the same situation, and so I won't be doing these raids, but are we really missing out on anything? It's just gonna be basically the same Pokémon as the one spawning for 3h, so it won't matter for us.
I'm in a busy college town and no one raids near me. I even joined the towns pokemon go Facebook group. They stopped posting there so I've given up in person raids.
I mean if remote raids get phased out I'll just never do anything but 1-3* raids again. I've played since day one and have never done a local group raid and it will never happen.
I mean same maybe once a month when im at the big gym in my city at maybe 17.00 excactly when a raid starts then i might get to do some legendary raids
Exact same. I have kids and I’m not fuckin organizing a raid in person. I am in my local discord but it legit is not worth the effort to me. Remote passes are perfect.
That's me too. I recently got my GF to play again (not sure if she will stick with it tho) but for the bigger raids, it's not enough. I know there are a lot of people playing around me because the gyms are always changing, but I haven't seen one (There are some offices around here, so they're probably there).
Niantic acts like everyone who plays Pokémon has a group they play with or everyone gets together like some kumbaya circle jerk on community days. Stop forcing people to do things they don’t want to do and shouldn’t have to do to play a damn game.
I think it’s because of the benefit that it comes with. It gets spawns of Deino in a radius of 300 meters. Though this feature being added is very concerning to the future of remote raids
It is not because of the benefits that come with it. Those "benefits" are smoke and mirrors. I believe Niantic wants everyone out, running around, and generating data for them to sell. This would then mean they'd really like remote passes to go away.
We all knew from the moment and the way remote raids were introduced they would eventually be faded out. Not sure why people hold this idea theyre a permanent feature.
And I have no doubt they want to do that. They want people to go to gyms to generate data, which is where they make the REAL money. COVID was their worst nightmare because it showed how boxed in/limited in scope the game was. All of the features they were forced to employ in order to stay afloat during the pandemic are coming back to bite them in the ass, because it goes against their whole “mission” with the game.
With each passing day, they make the game less accessible to (semi)rural players, again... Although this particular instance is insignificant, I believe it marks the beginning of the end of remote raiding in general. I can see myself walking away soon enough, especially with lowered legendary encounter rate in GBL and their insistence on removing remote passes from the weekly box.
And Niantic keeps holding the 'we hate disabled people' sign. I can walk but I get fatigue and the weather can be a factor too. (Don't get me started on what feels like 60% of recent research and special tasks seeming to involve 'walking around a lot' as a task. They're tryng to brute force it.
I'm so annoyed, i have like 18 local raid passes that i don't use. I don't have the ability to just go out places raiding, i usually rely on remote raid and invites. It sucks Niantic is trying to kill this aspect of the game.
andddd disabled players lose yet again. I assume this means they're eventually going to do away with remote raids altogether and when that happens I'll be fully done. and because very few sympathize with that they won't give a shit either
People are just being reactionary, if you're playing that CD there's no reason to do these and you only get the benefit of the post-CD spawns if you're there in person so there's no reason to do it remotely
Would be a waste of a remote raid pass, why would you want use one for just one Zweilous after whole a community day of catching Deinos? Also the benefit of the raid is so Deinos spawn around the gym.. so again why use a remote raid pass?
Exactly this. There is no benefit to a remote pass since the rewards are local to the gym. I suppose it would be nice to have them count for the people that are there in person, but this may be so they can mitigate any support requests.
Not everyone lives in a place that has enough people doing raids, and won't be able to solo it, so they have to use remote raid passes to get into a raid with enough people to win it.
What is the actual point of this? I can't see how they make any more money by people running around that just staying in doors. Like, where's the profit here?
I was an on again off again player for years but lately Niantic has blown all popularity, loyalty, and good will with their greedy anti player moves. I deleted the app and don’t plan on re installing. Don’t be evil… late stage capitalism sucks.
Had a serious medical problem come out of nowhere that has left me bedridden. Thanks Niantic for making this literally unplayable for me since I can't leave my house
I feel like if they're so determined to reduce the use of remote passes, a compromise could be that you can't use remote passes on smaller, solo-able raids from 1-3*. Or that you can use a remote pass to join a raid that you were invited to, but you need to be at the raid in person in order to send invites. That way you still have to go out in order to raid your local gyms, but you aren't being punished for not having any friends in your area who play.
Why would you want to remote raid into a feature you don’t get the benefit of? If they allowed remote they would get spammed with “bug” reports that people aren’t getting their Deino spawns after 4 star raids
I would say it would be beneficial for small/non-existent communities where they might not be able to get enough people together to raid. Of course the remote raiders still don't get the bonus, but I'm sure some moneybags people would raid Zweilous just for the XL candy.
Yeah, I just think people are looking for things to be outraged by tbh. It’s been a thing the community has been doing a lot recently and go fest being a shambles has made it worse.
I would love to hear more about why you think that. I don't see how adding a new feature to a CD shows that Niantic wants "no players", but maybe I am missing something.
I believe logical. Think about it..if you use a remote raid pass for a raid in say patis and you live in USA then how can you able to benefit from that 30 mins. deino spawn around that gym !?
It actually makes sense though. The Zweilous itself isn't really interesting (because it's Deino com day and Zweilous can't be caught shiny), but the bonus it gives. You will be getting Zweilous spawns around the gym where the raid was defeated. This only makes sense if the players that defeated it are actually there.
WHAAAATTT okay listen, I live in a place where there are quite a few Pokemon go players, but there is never enough people at one gym at the same time, you have to cycle through a bunch of different ones through the area. And I just can't do that on foot 🥲
Welp I guess I'm done playing since this is probably going to happen until they phase out remote raids entirely. Before remote raids I used to use 3 accounts on 3 devices with a friend or two because of how impossible it is to link up with anyone that happens to be playing in my area. I'm not going back to that. That was far too much effort and money and time that I no longer have.
Uh, the only people still playing in my area are weird adults that actually get mad that anyone has the gall to throw into a gym(even though they're gyms I have nominated for our small town). Guess I'll just skip these raids.
This makes sense because why would you remote raid a Zweilous that can't be shiny (or even if it can) after having Deino for three hours at 1/25 shiny rates.
How is it in anyway harder for a spoofer? A spoofer can be right there at the place of the raid. What, people would be able to tell they aren't there? What are they going to do? Report them? There's 80 meters that they could be inside of which could end up as a false report. You could say they could look at the gps data, but why would someone spoof on the otherside of the world for a Zweilous raid for Deinos? They would do one close to them. This does not effect a spoofer in any way. Niantic is not doing this for spoofers.
I mean, why would people want to spend a remote raid pass on this 4 star anyway? You don’t benefit from the extra spawns. The only “way” I could see this if you ran out of other passes and remoted in from a distance.
I can see what you’re saying since remote players don’t get the spawns around the gym, but allowing remote raiders to take part in these raids may give a person who can’t play during the regular 3 hours a chance to get at least a single Pokémon out of it compared to absolutely nothing
So that then it can’t be soloed and you need to bring more people to take down the raid. 4-star raids were removed a while back because getting 3 people to choose a tyranitar over say a mewtwo just wasn’t reasonable for most people. Bringing them back this way forces multiple players to interact with a raid in person without allowing for players who aren’t there to even get a chance at the Zeweilos, for better or worse.
Is there any difference between the way Koreans/Japanese players do raids? When I get remote invited, I see up to 12-15 players. I'm a Korean American newbie player who just started last summer btw so please be kind in your response or just don't say anything at all.
Korean/Japanese lobbies are usually full. Americans use apps to invite people to raids or invite friends but the most I've seen is 12 players when the pokemon is new. Now it's less with all the changes that are happening.
Y'all gotta be kidding to legitimately be mad at this. The deino spawn ring is AROUND THE GYM you raid, how tf are you even gonna be near if you're raiding from another town or country. Consider it an extension of the comm day not a new raid boss, stg y'all do anything to be victims here.
The joke is your post, actually. 1st, complaining at A BONUS. 2nd, who on earth who want to remote raid this after 3h CD and no possibility of shiny or getting the 30 min deino spawns next to the gym with CD boost shiny rate??
That makes me sad… I’m kind of the same but with other games but I don’t get made fun of or at least if I do they never do it to my face they just… stop playing with me so if I play a multiplayer mode it’s almost always by myself 😥
This is the 2pm to 7pm after com day. Doing it remotely wouldnt benefit the person doing it remotely. After defeating the Zweilous in the raid Deino will be spawning around that gym for thirty minutes at the same shiny rate as during com day hours.
Welp this is something I’m ignoring. I live in the suburbs and work in an industrial area. No gyms or stops accessible without driving and gas prices are too high to waste on a damn Zweilous
my town has a total of 5 gyms, all of them spread pretty far from one another, and i’ve never once seen a full gym here. WHO is niantic expecting me to raid with exactly?
how do you even use the premimum battle passes? i’ve got like 30 and throw them out because i’ve never been able to use them. someone help a future pokémaster out 🙌🏼
Jokes on you, I don't have remote raid pass to use in the first place.
They're trying to get people to use their standard Premium Raid passes. Heck, I'm still sitting on 15 that I've had since before COVID.
Jokes on you... I don't have any friends anyway!
Why should i do this raid first? The shiny rates of the spawn is the same, i don't want waste a raid ticket for this lol.
Jokes on you I lost both my leg.
This whole in-person raiding crap might make a little bit of sense if Niantic attempted to make it easier to connect with other trainers or somehow funnel trainers towards the same gyms. I see familiar names in gyms, sometimes when I'm attacking a gym those people will actually jump in on it, but without running around in a 4 block radius loudly shouting, I'll never ever know who those people are. 10 gyms in that 4 block radius and 3 raids going on, even if people all went out in a 20 minute span to do in-person raiding there is a 0.05% chance all of the players congegrate at the same gym and join the battle in the same 2 minute window.

hopefully they will not reduce the distance you can start a raid though.
[удалено]
Guess I'm not doing those because absolutely no one raids around my area
Good fun for people like myself who live in a village where probably about 3 people play
I'm in the same situation, and so I won't be doing these raids, but are we really missing out on anything? It's just gonna be basically the same Pokémon as the one spawning for 3h, so it won't matter for us.
As a rural player, eliminating remote raids would 100% eliminate my interest in this game.
Raids nobody will be completing:
I'll be at a family thing around 2 gyms during the whole community day, a good handful of us play hopefully raids spawn there
I’m a solo player in a rural setting, I’ve literally never seen another player do a raid near me. RIP
same lol, rip these raids
I wonder if this is solo-able with it's big fairy weakness
I'm in a busy college town and no one raids near me. I even joined the towns pokemon go Facebook group. They stopped posting there so I've given up in person raids.
Frankly this is a problem even in surburban settings.
I feel sorry that you are forced to play this game. I'll pray for you .
Even PokeGo is forcing us back to the office.
I mean if remote raids get phased out I'll just never do anything but 1-3* raids again. I've played since day one and have never done a local group raid and it will never happen.
Same. I did a few raids by organizing over Discord, but I don't have the time or energy for that anymore.
I mean same maybe once a month when im at the big gym in my city at maybe 17.00 excactly when a raid starts then i might get to do some legendary raids
Exact same. I have kids and I’m not fuckin organizing a raid in person. I am in my local discord but it legit is not worth the effort to me. Remote passes are perfect.
Same 100%. Remotes were such a godsend.
That's me too. I recently got my GF to play again (not sure if she will stick with it tho) but for the bigger raids, it's not enough. I know there are a lot of people playing around me because the gyms are always changing, but I haven't seen one (There are some offices around here, so they're probably there).
Tbf. Do you honestly think Niantic is gonna get rid of their main money maker?
Niantic acts like everyone who plays Pokémon has a group they play with or everyone gets together like some kumbaya circle jerk on community days. Stop forcing people to do things they don’t want to do and shouldn’t have to do to play a damn game.
I think it’s because of the benefit that it comes with. It gets spawns of Deino in a radius of 300 meters. Though this feature being added is very concerning to the future of remote raids
The bonus spawns only apply if more than 10 people complete the raid in person. Don’t know why Niantic seem to think I have more than 10 friends.
It is not because of the benefits that come with it. Those "benefits" are smoke and mirrors. I believe Niantic wants everyone out, running around, and generating data for them to sell. This would then mean they'd really like remote passes to go away.
You need 10 players raiding to get the spawn bonus. Good luck!
We all knew from the moment and the way remote raids were introduced they would eventually be faded out. Not sure why people hold this idea theyre a permanent feature.
loud audible sigh
I actually sighed loudly as I read this 🤣🤦🏻♂️
-pats on back- it's okay buddy. We still have the console games.
Ah my reason to fully justify not getting the $1 community day pass
And I have no doubt they want to do that. They want people to go to gyms to generate data, which is where they make the REAL money. COVID was their worst nightmare because it showed how boxed in/limited in scope the game was. All of the features they were forced to employ in order to stay afloat during the pandemic are coming back to bite them in the ass, because it goes against their whole “mission” with the game.

Didn’t you hear? Go Fest 2022 was a huge success, so why not use the same formula
just got that email, i thought they were joking but they were serious…
In what way is this at all “the same formula” as go fest
Thanks for shitting on your rural and disabled players again, Niantic!
I'm so annoyed, i have like 18 local raid passes that i don't use. I don't have the ability to just go out places raiding, i usually rely on remote raid and invites. It sucks Niantic is trying to kill this aspect of the game.
You can use your raid passes in GBL at level 20. You'll need just 1 win for a chance at a legendary, it's not great but it's better than wasting them.
Jokes on everyone. They got rid of 2-star and 4-star raids out of laziness.
They will see that nobody does their fucking raids because not so many people play as before
Ok cool I won’t be doing it
andddd disabled players lose yet again. I assume this means they're eventually going to do away with remote raids altogether and when that happens I'll be fully done. and because very few sympathize with that they won't give a shit either
If they delete remote raid passes I might just stop playing entirely
This is their blatant attempt in getting people out and stop remote raiding, it’s like they don’t like people shelling out remote raid pass money 🤨
Not necessarily, but they want to force people together, as they need their data to sell
They like the millions they make selling people’s data. You even allow them to collect gps data when you ain’t using the app
Booo Niantic Boooo
Isn't deino going to be the community day mon? Wouldn't that make this raid pointless to use any kind of pass on in the first place
People are just being reactionary, if you're playing that CD there's no reason to do these and you only get the benefit of the post-CD spawns if you're there in person so there's no reason to do it remotely
This feature is active from 2pm to 7pm, so with these raids, you can have access to Deino after the CD too.
Would be a waste of a remote raid pass, why would you want use one for just one Zweilous after whole a community day of catching Deinos? Also the benefit of the raid is so Deinos spawn around the gym.. so again why use a remote raid pass?
Exactly this. There is no benefit to a remote pass since the rewards are local to the gym. I suppose it would be nice to have them count for the people that are there in person, but this may be so they can mitigate any support requests.
Not everyone lives in a place that has enough people doing raids, and won't be able to solo it, so they have to use remote raid passes to get into a raid with enough people to win it.
This so much. So many people here just wanna be mad for the sake of being mad lmao.
You may be in a community of more frugal Trainers. I assure you plenty of people would be raiding Zweilous remotely if they could.
Some people just complain for the sake of complaining.
As a former longtime Ingress player, trust me, I commiserate. This is what started happening when Niantic essentially abandoned the game.
They cant abandon pogo. It’s literally where all of their money comes from
What is the actual point of this? I can't see how they make any more money by people running around that just staying in doors. Like, where's the profit here?
They sell your location data which isn’t as profitable if you’re playing in 1 place all the time
I was an on again off again player for years but lately Niantic has blown all popularity, loyalty, and good will with their greedy anti player moves. I deleted the app and don’t plan on re installing. Don’t be evil… late stage capitalism sucks.
Had a serious medical problem come out of nowhere that has left me bedridden. Thanks Niantic for making this literally unplayable for me since I can't leave my house
This is because the rewards are Pokemon that spawn at the gym, meaning you wouldn’t get any rewards if you use a remote pass
I feel like if they're so determined to reduce the use of remote passes, a compromise could be that you can't use remote passes on smaller, solo-able raids from 1-3*. Or that you can use a remote pass to join a raid that you were invited to, but you need to be at the raid in person in order to send invites. That way you still have to go out in order to raid your local gyms, but you aren't being punished for not having any friends in your area who play.
Niantic: We're not happy unless you're not happy.
Niantic is making themselves look like pricks
Now imagine if they partnered with EA for FIFA GO
Why would you want to remote raid into a feature you don’t get the benefit of? If they allowed remote they would get spammed with “bug” reports that people aren’t getting their Deino spawns after 4 star raids
I would say it would be beneficial for small/non-existent communities where they might not be able to get enough people together to raid. Of course the remote raiders still don't get the bonus, but I'm sure some moneybags people would raid Zweilous just for the XL candy.
exactly, i dont get people sometimes
Yeah, I just think people are looking for things to be outraged by tbh. It’s been a thing the community has been doing a lot recently and go fest being a shambles has made it worse.
So they just want no players now? Is that it?
I would love to hear more about why you think that. I don't see how adding a new feature to a CD shows that Niantic wants "no players", but maybe I am missing something.
Is anyone really surprised at this point? The benefits wouldn’t be nearly as useful to people raiding remotely anyway.
I can't say that I'm happy about this
To be fair... The point of the raids is the unlock Deino spawns around the gym so that's pointless with remote raids
It is the beginning of the remote passes removal... I can hear it
I already have like three evolved Hydreigon. They can keep their Deino Community Few Hours.
I believe logical. Think about it..if you use a remote raid pass for a raid in say patis and you live in USA then how can you able to benefit from that 30 mins. deino spawn around that gym !?
*People playing in remote areas or with small population*
[удалено]
these are only for the com day added bonus
Let's all go together. That is one raid I'll be interested in physically attending.
Give me a heads-up, I'll gladly join you.
Nothing against you but with how serious things r the past few weeks I would just avoid making such jokes.
There's no way they're actually removing them for good?
If they try, the outcry will be deafening…
I do believe, given the opportunity, they will.
So this is how they bring back 4 star raids. Well, it's better than the EX raid system, but not by very much
It's coming back too.
It actually makes sense though. The Zweilous itself isn't really interesting (because it's Deino com day and Zweilous can't be caught shiny), but the bonus it gives. You will be getting Zweilous spawns around the gym where the raid was defeated. This only makes sense if the players that defeated it are actually there.
Niantic not understanding their audience evidence #69,420,713
Niantic is not a game company. They are a data and analytics company. Remote raiding cuts into that data generation, so it reduces their profits.
Niantics audience not understanding who is making the game
WHAAAATTT okay listen, I live in a place where there are quite a few Pokemon go players, but there is never enough people at one gym at the same time, you have to cycle through a bunch of different ones through the area. And I just can't do that on foot 🥲
I just want 6 hour community days. I work weekends. I don't have time to sit at a random gym for 30 minutes catching Pokemon.
Yeah, they are really trying to push the in-person raids and tbh it better be Zweilous for this or else I'd be very angry.
And you have to have ten people play in the raid
Eventually they will have to give that up because there will be almost zero uptake on these raids
Yeah niantic is fucking all you with no lube and no permission.
Wow...they really hate their comminity
Welp I guess I'm done playing since this is probably going to happen until they phase out remote raids entirely. Before remote raids I used to use 3 accounts on 3 devices with a friend or two because of how impossible it is to link up with anyone that happens to be playing in my area. I'm not going back to that. That was far too much effort and money and time that I no longer have.
I’m so glad I quit this game. Every update I see on this sub breaks my heart
Joke is on Niantic, I already have a Hydreigon 100% from GBL
Why waste the time raiding something that cant be shiny when shiny odds on deino will be great
Uh, the only people still playing in my area are weird adults that actually get mad that anyone has the gall to throw into a gym(even though they're gyms I have nominated for our small town). Guess I'll just skip these raids.
Board Room at Niantic, Friday night, sometime mid-covid, some booze involved.
So, they are trying to eradicate RRP
I mean, if you don’t want my money Niantic, go right ahead. I won’t buy the remote raid passes and I won’t do the raids.
We should all stop playing
god pogo is making the worst decisions possible wtf
I've stopped playing because of Niantic's horrible decisions. God I miss playing Pokemon go in quarantine
This makes sense because why would you remote raid a Zweilous that can't be shiny (or even if it can) after having Deino for three hours at 1/25 shiny rates.
How is it in anyway harder for a spoofer? A spoofer can be right there at the place of the raid. What, people would be able to tell they aren't there? What are they going to do? Report them? There's 80 meters that they could be inside of which could end up as a false report. You could say they could look at the gps data, but why would someone spoof on the otherside of the world for a Zweilous raid for Deinos? They would do one close to them. This does not effect a spoofer in any way. Niantic is not doing this for spoofers.
I mean, why would people want to spend a remote raid pass on this 4 star anyway? You don’t benefit from the extra spawns. The only “way” I could see this if you ran out of other passes and remoted in from a distance.
I can see what you’re saying since remote players don’t get the spawns around the gym, but allowing remote raiders to take part in these raids may give a person who can’t play during the regular 3 hours a chance to get at least a single Pokémon out of it compared to absolutely nothing
What the fuck, ive literally ONLY used remote passes (except ONCE) since TWENTY-TWENTY. For T W O YEARS
Niantic says, GTFU samurai, it's time to lose that fat earned during the pandemic.
Why is Zweilous 4 star raid if for example Taranitar or Agron were 3 stars?
So that then it can’t be soloed and you need to bring more people to take down the raid. 4-star raids were removed a while back because getting 3 people to choose a tyranitar over say a mewtwo just wasn’t reasonable for most people. Bringing them back this way forces multiple players to interact with a raid in person without allowing for players who aren’t there to even get a chance at the Zeweilos, for better or worse.
Is there any difference between the way Koreans/Japanese players do raids? When I get remote invited, I see up to 12-15 players. I'm a Korean American newbie player who just started last summer btw so please be kind in your response or just don't say anything at all.
Korean/Japanese lobbies are usually full. Americans use apps to invite people to raids or invite friends but the most I've seen is 12 players when the pokemon is new. Now it's less with all the changes that are happening.
Cool so us disabled people can just get f*cked... again...
It's just another moronic attempt to phase out Remote Raids.
Y'all gotta be kidding to legitimately be mad at this. The deino spawn ring is AROUND THE GYM you raid, how tf are you even gonna be near if you're raiding from another town or country. Consider it an extension of the comm day not a new raid boss, stg y'all do anything to be victims here.
Complainers gonna complain.
Another reason why I am glad I quit. Niantic be playing games with us seeing how much bullshit ppl will put up with and still pay money. F that.
The joke is your post, actually. 1st, complaining at A BONUS. 2nd, who on earth who want to remote raid this after 3h CD and no possibility of shiny or getting the 30 min deino spawns next to the gym with CD boost shiny rate??
Pokemon go is going down hill
Just leave the house nerds
I think it is a fun idea and hope to do a few.
This is a fun idea only for the big man at niantic selling your data after you run around
Never been in a raid with other people. Anytime I post about this game publicly in my community I get made fun of 💀 y’all just let me remote raid
That makes me sad… I’m kind of the same but with other games but I don’t get made fun of or at least if I do they never do it to my face they just… stop playing with me so if I play a multiplayer mode it’s almost always by myself 😥

Unsure if you’re joking or not but if not you sir need to get in the bin
Yikes. Do you work for niantic or something?
This right here is why people should delete the game.
Pokemon go players when they have to go outside
[удалено]
they expect us to raid in a 3 hour event? lmao fuck this
I guess this is what Niantic thought when we said we needed an incentive to raid in person
I got like 15 of those premium raid passes lol now I can finally find uses for them.
This is the beginning of the end for remote passes
Well guess which raids I wont take part in…
This is the 2pm to 7pm after com day. Doing it remotely wouldnt benefit the person doing it remotely. After defeating the Zweilous in the raid Deino will be spawning around that gym for thirty minutes at the same shiny rate as during com day hours.
this is specifically attacking me i swear, lmao
Jokes on you I'm still doing mewtwo
So dumb
Welp this is something I’m ignoring. I live in the suburbs and work in an industrial area. No gyms or stops accessible without driving and gas prices are too high to waste on a damn Zweilous
All I got are premium passes. I’m good
How do u even use the premium passes I've bmnever used one and how do u get remote raid passes
How do you use the premium passes? I couldn't figure out how when doing an in person raid the other day. I could only use the regular ones
Is the shiny even available on the mid form? If not why would I even bother when it's base form has a community day coming up?
I think it's because they allow the community day to be extended under that gym for 30 more minutes, in person only.
We thought Niantic was listening, but they weren't SMH my head my head
Awh what the fuck is this...
The event box doesnt give raid passes anymore and my town is really, really inactive..
my town has a total of 5 gyms, all of them spread pretty far from one another, and i’ve never once seen a full gym here. WHO is niantic expecting me to raid with exactly?
I mean you can't even farm them anymore,
I think the point is to restrict to regular raid passes because they spawn deino at that gym.
Why use your passes or give them your money for this?
But why....?
Man honestly I'm lucky if I have just the regular raid pass since I dont play every day. That's honestly kind of shit
Of course this is the day I’m driving across the country 😔
how do you even use the premimum battle passes? i’ve got like 30 and throw them out because i’ve never been able to use them. someone help a future pokémaster out 🙌🏼
This is just one of many, I'm sure. I'm quitting.
This is just making me not want to play even more
This is pure ableism. This makes me so angry.
I’d understand if it was any of the 1-3 star raids but c’mon a 4 star raid you need a bunch of people… I guess not many of us are getting Zweilous
Remote passes might probably disappear in a relatively short term
If they disappear, so will 99% of Rural players.
The hell
