Bizarre Decisions From the Pokemon Go Community are Contributing to Unrest and Annoyance
It’s a known fact that Pokemon Go took over the world by storm upon release, pushing players into the real world to find, catch, and collect hundreds of Pokemon. It’s a unique experience that you’ll never find in any other game.
One of the most essential parts of the Pokemon Go experience is Raid Battles, as they’re one of the best ways to get Pokemon with high IVs. The game’s raid system brings the entire community together, but sometimes, this particular aspect can take things too far and ruin the experience for everyone.
Pokemon Go Moltres Raid Remote Raid Ends in a Disaster
There’s no doubt that the past few weeks have proven to be quite bittersweet for Pokemon Go fans. While the community was excited about the Mega Rayquaza makeup event, it turned out to be another horrendous experience for many trainers due to various reasons. Amid that, some users aren’t happy about the community either.
In a new post on the official Pokemon Go subreddit, user WaterHale1983 shared their experience and frustrations doing Moltres raids with random players in the community.
The Redditor was trying to take down the legendary bird with another trainer. Instead of helping in the raid, the other trainer decided to lay back and leave all the hard work of dealing damage to the Redditor.
Obviously, there’s no way for only one player to take down the legendary bird. The raid ended up in a complete disaster, as the Redditor ran out of time and couldn’t beat it. In the end, they lost their Remote Pass and the opportunity to capture the rare Pokemon!
It’s not the first time we’ve witnessed such issues. Since the introduction of Pokemon Go raids, we’ve constantly heard players complaining about such annoying problems. It’s really time for Niantic to stand up and revamp the raiding system in a way that punishes people who don’t contribute to raids.
Pokemon Go’s Rumored New Raids Could Save The Game
In the eight years since its debut, Pokemon Go managed to become a top-dog mobile game staple and then fell in popularity due to repetitive gameplay and terrible developer changes. However, the next Dynamax update could be the change that brings the game back to its glory days.
We’ve seen theories about the Gen 8 update for the game for months at this point, but the recent leaks have revealed that Dynamax and Gigantamax features are finally coming into the experience.
Galar’s Dynamax and Gigantamax gimmick will debut with various new Pokemon for trainers to challenge. They will most likely appear in their super-sized forms at various Raid locations and revert after being captured.
This means trainers can get some of their personal favorites with a brand-new form to activate and utilize, pushing them to go out and capture mons they might’ve already registered in their PokeDex.
These new types of raids will likely pose new challenges. The encounters might be challenging to beat, or the Pokemon in the raids might have access to special moves in the Dynamax form. It’s truly going to shake up encounters and force trainers to think about their strategies twice before going into the raid.
Do you think Niantic needs to revamp Pokemon Go‘s raiding system? If so, let us know in the comments.
