No Redundancy Here
The concept of a raid is that you and a group of other players get together to fight a “raid boss” – just a big powerful Pokémon. Pre-COVID this meant physically gathering with a group of friends or strangers to catch ’em all.
However, there is now the option of remote raiding, which means you can team up with players around the world. Prior to the remote option I avoided raids at all cost. My introvert heart didn’t care that I was missing out on stardust, special candy, and the pride of defeating an oversized cloud demon. Now I battle alongside “friends” in Japan.
