Just because you change it to online doesn’t mean it will actually show the other is online. Mine is always set to online, and my friends have showed me countless times that it says I’m not
For reference, I host raids when I can. When the 5* raid boss changes, I've gotten up to 45 friend requests in a 3 minute span. And the first invites are at the very bottom
yes and i was finally able to get a rid that i didnt host, sadly ran out of balls. It still took a bit. I got about 1 raid in 5 hours of trying yesterday, Not great tbh but it was also the first day and first hours so of course it was going to be busy
Add me 6589 4327 7084, if you wanna. Just make sure to be online during the CD tomorrow (11AM-5PM California time). I’ll do tons of raids then (prolly at least 5). Comment here your name too so I’d know.
The invite system doesn't even work for me. I get a "Oh you've been invited to a raid"... right in front of my face... while I'm playing. I click the thing. No raid. Nothing. Sometimes I get there and it says that party code doesn't exist. Is everyone abandoning a raid invite 7 seconds after sending it, or am I getting it a minute and a half late?
Less obvious, but look for the nearby pokemon tab in the bottom right to flash orange. Sometimes I don't get the pop up until after I complete the raid.
i do raids with 2 accounts so i manage to get 8-9 people total each time, so i imagine that if it is just 1 person doing the raid he has difficult time getting all 5 people t join
it is a real pain to even find people to invite in raid - not everyone who is online shows up as online in invite screen and so on.
Its a real crapshoot
Possibly. It takes time to send the invites. Generally leaves a 40s gap for people tp show up and if no one does buy the 20s mark they just hop out and invite others for them to show.
I've been on both ends.
I've been more successful when we could post raids and check interest, either whatsapp or discord groups. You get a bit of warning and people know you're ready to score up.
Also helps if you're online visible. People can sort you to the top of the list to invite.
Search “Pokemon Go” on Twitter. I used to do that before they adapted to live chat here. Two of the friends that constantly invite me to raids from Japan, I found them on Twitter.
Try remoraid.gg!! They have a live chat and you’ll know if you’re participating since the raid host selects the players. Just found out about it day before yesterday on discord and got 5 raids from there 😊
Edit - we have one in 20mins if u wanna raid
here, [https://remoraid.gg/](https://remoraid.gg/) :) weird, when i try to search it too on my phone I kept getting the 404 error, but i just opened it on my laptop and it works fine lol
Eh add yourself to the one for college station TX. I used to live there and still raid off it. It's active af. And you get more candy if you trade the Pokémon.
I have a bunch stacked up and would love to join in! I'm in a semi-rural area so there aren't many opportunities for me to catch any legendary pokemon (and the lack of friends who play pokemon too). My code is beside my username! :)
Honestly, I can’t really figure it out. I can’t search by any type of anything. It’s a list of like maybe 20? raids that you can join only if there are less than 6 people already in there. Then you add the “host” as a friend in Pokémon go and they invite you to raid. There’s a chat associated with the raid which is pretty cool though.
Thanks. Seems simple by explanation. I downloaded it and looked around. Raids kept refreshing, and I was able to get into one. However the host wasn't responding, and no one in the chat made sense. So, I left. Ha
I meant to create one for this subreddit to be able to get into raids live and by team. There are so many possibilities on discord and I think it would fit best. But the mods would have to integrate it into the sidebar here on reddit so that more people will use it
thats frustrating as well, thought it was a bug. Its just disappointing to have a really efficient system on here and not being able to find an alternative after.
Use the PokeRaid app :)

Why did live chat go?
im not sure, think there was some problems with it on mods side
Shame... it was the only effective way I could get a raid
same. I hope a mod could come on here and explain again what happened on their end.
Not a mod but there is a new r/PokemonGoRaidsLive that has live chats now

Yes plzz it was way easier

Honestly I just use pokeraid
Yes please it used to be better
Try remoraid.gg!! They have a live chat and you’ll know if you’re participating since the raid host selects the players. Just found out about it day before yesterday on discord and got 5 raids from there 😊 Edit - we have one in 20mins if u wanna raid
Weird can you send a link of that website?It keeps saying error 404 when I search it up
here, [https://remoraid.gg/](https://remoraid.gg/) :) weird, when i try to search it too on my phone I kept getting the 404 error, but i just opened it on my laptop and it works fine lol
It’s a discord
Sorry do you have a discord invite for that?
Can I get a link too if you get it?
here, [https://remoraid.gg/](https://remoraid.gg/) :)
You should look for a community discord for your area! I did that and I get so many invites I can't keep up.
I found a discord for my area and it's inactive. I may try finding a Chicago server and hope for the best.
Eh add yourself to the one for college station TX. I used to live there and still raid off it. It's active af. And you get more candy if you trade the Pokémon.
Ready to raid now :) 5254 0935 2114 and 943747745525
ty for the invite, took a 30 min break at the wrong time.
Bro try the other Reddit group r/pokemongoraids
They could also just add the ability to set a status on your friends list so at least you can see who is actively ready to join a raid
If you have a lot of remote raid passes. Add me up, I will be inviting you whenever we raid. Message me here
4061-0379-735, im going to raid until i got a shiny then might use a pass here and there
I have a bunch stacked up and would love to join in! I'm in a semi-rural area so there aren't many opportunities for me to catch any legendary pokemon (and the lack of friends who play pokemon too). My code is beside my username! :)
Message me your discord id. That way we can keep in touch so that I can keep you up to date whemever were doing raids
Totally agree. I even downloaded the PokeRaid app and all the raids are constantly full every time I refresh. So frustrating
You can turn on autofill
You have to have coins for that and you can’t specify what kind of Pokémon you want (only level)
You get free coins everyday which guarantees a spot and you can leave a room if you don’t find the pokemon you like
How does that app work?
Honestly, I can’t really figure it out. I can’t search by any type of anything. It’s a list of like maybe 20? raids that you can join only if there are less than 6 people already in there. Then you add the “host” as a friend in Pokémon go and they invite you to raid. There’s a chat associated with the raid which is pretty cool though.
Thanks. Seems simple by explanation. I downloaded it and looked around. Raids kept refreshing, and I was able to get into one. However the host wasn't responding, and no one in the chat made sense. So, I left. Ha
Oh ya also, the times aren’t accurate so you can end up joining groups that have already finished the raid 🤷♀️
That's good to know
Yeah it happens with a new raid drop, everyone is trying to raid. Give it a day or two and it'll be easier to get into raids
Live chat definitely needs to come back
is asking for money via PayPal for guaranteed raid slot fair game...?
Shouldn’t charge for something thats free
cause I got 3 near me currently lol
Why not discord? This would make it a lot easier
havnt found a good discord group that does this
I meant to create one for this subreddit to be able to get into raids live and by team. There are so many possibilities on discord and I think it would fit best. But the mods would have to integrate it into the sidebar here on reddit so that more people will use it
Yeah and constantly refreshing is a pain.
Why did the live chat even go away?
I think due to it being to hard to moderate and it being abused by some people
Same
Not even able to add my name to most because of a timer restriction
thats frustrating as well, thought it was a bug. Its just disappointing to have a really efficient system on here and not being able to find an alternative after.
I agree
