Wswinney!
any friend(s) online
random friend(s) not online - surprisingly, this has got a few joiners

I've done a few other raids with "friends" from BO also, but Wswinney must have an insane poke collection based on number of raids. Although was only 3rd among my friends for the raid contest awhile back... Course I think number 1 was all of England.

my code for anyone who doesn't already have it:
6782 7179 5940





Just sent you an invite.

If you ever need a raid partner, let me know! I don’t really know anyone enough that plays around here to even talk about doing a raid. I’d love to get some nicer stuff out of the raids but flying solo doesn’t get you much.

I sure do appreciate all the invites and I do love to raid. If you or any of you IRL friends are interested I run a discord and we have 40 or so members and we all raid about as much as I do. So plenty of raid help. I can post it here or send you guys a link. We have people from Texas, Australia, England and few other places. The Australia one is nice cause we get a jump on raids

I removed you and added you back so you could complete your research. Go accept it and you’ll be good.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 - the difference is very noticeable to me. Not sure on battery usage as of yet. Thanks for posting this!

You can remove a friend and add them back as well and that works. You dont lose progress

I still play every day

Johto was... a lot lol. I messed up and 1) thought it was a 2 day event and 2) thought it started at 11am, not 9am (I woke up at 1030). I found trying to complete all the various challenges stressful - that was compounded by my late start (completely my fault). Even though I played all of the other hours, I ended up not completing the research. So it was the first time I didn't earn all the available collection challenge medals since they introduced them. That bummed me out. I did get 13 shiny including the guaranteed Gyarados and a Heracross. I had fun overall.

Sandshrew community day is one of the more love/hate type ones for me. Sandshrew is one of my favorites and I grinded them for a very long time to get the one shiny I have. It kind of makes him feel a little cheapened now but I'm looking forward to catching them anyway.

(sorry for the long write up!)

I might actually be in the minority here, but most of my action in PoGo is typically battling other trainers. I’ll usually play through 2-3 sets of five battles throughout the day.

I used to only use pokegenie to rank my mons but they added the raiding feature and I’ve been using it some lately.

I think that’s so it can access pogo but I haven’t logged out of it in a while. I’ll go look and see what it looks like.
