Pokemon Go Thread #29: Are Friends Manectric? Are they?

[DoctorTwo]

Ooh look! A shiny new thread! Hello everybody.

@TheMShip, I am finished with Kyurem now so don't waste an invite on me (Debstonmon2), even if I am online. Happy to have a crack at something else though if you see any others you want to do.

@Katastrofe, yay so pleased that you both got one!

Thanks for inviting him! He didn't manage to catch it so if anyone else has him as a friend, he's got more raid passes and would love to try again!

He's DaddyXYCool.

Well done @Katastrofe!

@ignatiusjreilly will invite him again

@ignatiusjreilly what's his code? I'll add and invite.

Thanks TheMShip! It's 4915 9483 8800.

@Katastrofe thanks for inviting him again! Unfortunately it got away from him again but he said it was really fun.

I feel like the revive drought is finally over

@ignatiusjreilly oh no! We were left just 4 in the raid but we managed with a round of max revives. My DS9 pokeboys8000 has caught all 3 Kyurems from the 3 raids we did! Me and DS6 caught 2 out of 3 so we are done now. Don’t know if we are exceptionally lucky as we only sometimes manage a great or nice shot. Can’t see any other raids around than Kyurem!

He was really unlucky as almost every throw he did was a great curveball and he was using golden raspberries too. Glad you and your boys had better luck. He enjoyed the experience anyway!

I want a Kyurem I'm neveah if anyone wants to raid

Sigh the invites are glitching!

[quote bellabelly]@netflixismysidehustle, was it a good one? I might change my buddy to gyrados just so I can have enough candy to evolve a Magikarp with the special move that only works if you evolve within two hours of community day ending.[/quote]
It's zero stars.
I've got 2 red Gary and loads of regular ones (hundo, 2x98, 1x 96..) , 2k+ candy and 4 shiny Magicarp so I'm sorted for community day

Arrggh didn't catch it ! But thank you !

Yes!!! He finally caught a Kyurem. He is over the moon. Thank you @TheMShip

Yay, I got a 3 * Kyurem

Thank you so much for the invite, it was a lot of fun!

I'm fairly keen for a shiny magicarp, I've got 3 full gyrados and leads of candy but a shiny would be nice...

Fab! We both couldn't catch it but tbh were just so happy to beat one on our third try.

How are you all inviting each other? I haven't been checking in on threads frequently because.... Work... So seem to have missed some developments.

Dillite you can do remote raids now

I know about remote raids, I have been doing some when I have been lucky and stumbled across one with people in the lobby. But how are people adding each other to them and inviting each other? Or are all of you local?

There's a little invite button when you join a raid now, I think only if you're there in person, not if you're remote yourself? And you can invite anyone on your friends list.

I’ve managed to invite people to remote raids so you don’t have to be there in person

Oh that's really good to know thank you!

@dillite When you enter the lobby, you can invite up to five of your friends. There's a time limit - I think when the countdown gets to 30 seconds it's too late to invite anyone else so you have to be quick. People also need to be pretty quick to accept!
Another new change is that your remote raid pass doesn't get used up when you enter the lobby, only when the raid starts. So you can enter the lobby, invite up to five friends and then if only one accepts and joins, you can both back out without losing your raid passes.
