Guess I get to fight my first Mewtwo next tuesday (blurred out location for obvious reasons)

o.o how do you get one of those?

o.o how do you get one of those?

I just attended a couple of gym raids in my city today, one of them is known amongst our group for giving out invitations. I just got lucky that I got one, as did several others who went to that gym today for various raids. I would check any known group pages for your area and see which gyms have given invites in the past and try to raid on that one whenever possible.

I am just incredibly relieved it falls on a day I don't go to work. Then again, even if it did... I would call in sick.. :X

Oo congrats. Are the EX raids a permanent feature now or limited release?

[Raire]

Yep. I check the stats first but then I get taken to the top

Do you know any way to fix it?

I don't think it's a bug - and if it was I don't think it's possible to fix

This Problem needs a new update with a bug fix - it's not supposed to happen.

Having a higher level doesn't really seem to change much as far as raids go. Maybe a lvl 40 person could take on a level 3 raid just barely, but thats about it. I'm 31 and stuck doing the level 1 and 2 raids for a rare candy here and there

That's the point of the game - coming together to defeat Pokemon. C;
The higher your level the better your Mons can get, so it will just be easier or you need less people to defeat the raid boss.
But yeah even at almost level 35 I can also only do level 1 or 2 raids solo OTL

But like I've said a million times before, you need actual active players in your area to do so..... and living in a fairly small city, in a country that has never had a devoted pokemon fanbase, and well after the games peak popularity has gone down.. yeah there's no way it would work.

It's disheartening that so many players can't get to everything the game has to offer, and by no fault of their own..

That was always the same for Pokemon though. I still remember the days with my old Gameboy and nobody to trade with.. missing out on special event Pokemon even now.

Haven't played Pokemon Go in a couple of months. Just re-opened the app to remember that I have 6 pichus. I am a pichu magnet.

They still have trading options, though. Worldwide ones, while I think pokego had said we'd only get local ones.

look, even if you don’t have groups around or live in a rural area, if you go out to the city or an amusement park occasionally, you can play the game. i live in an area where the only thing i can see is part of a road on the very outskirts of the map. no pokestops or gyms around for at least 5 miles. but i still love the game, and anytime i go anywhere, i open it up and do whatever i can.
just because you live somewhere inactive, doesn’t mean you can’t take day trips out to a city, or even a local park.
i personally don’t do many raids, and am more here for the collecting aspect, if you go to any amusement park, you’ll find a raid party.
