Man I wish I could do that. Parents would flip out. Maybe one day. For now I'm just kinda stuck staring at the raids from a longing distance.

Aww that's a shame. Everyone I've met so far has been really nice and there've been plenty of girls too. But I get why your parents wouldn't want you meeting up with strangers... does that include us? XD

I have a group at uni going which is cool. Just saw a Zapdos pop up!!! Trying to get enough people to go get it right now xD

Send me a Zapdos....I need one.

Yeah actually it does. There's a reason I've never met a friend from the internet before. It's why I eagerly await getting my own car so I can meet people halfway. Also trying to work on my parents on letting me spend a semester in Melbourne. So far the only obstacle is that if I choose to become a double major I have to spend a semester in Spain which means no semester in Australia. Otherwise my mom is totally onboard with Australia being my semester abroad location.

I was able to hold down a gym for about 3 hours and then lost it. The first time I've really played in several months because of my crap phone and service provider.

I haven't played this in a long while. I think early April was the last time I opened it.

Does it still take a long time to start up and crash often? That was the killer for me. If it was quick, stable, and didn't crash all the time, I'd probably still be playing it, but the whole take forever to start and then crash ten seconds into it was just too annoying to deal with. ._.

I check on it regularly, mainly for legendary raids. (Which are redundant now because it isn't actually popular enough to get large crowds together in one area to get the legendaries now without official events)
It takes a few seconds to log in and hardly ever crashes. When I went to a pokemon go event recently it crashed a lot but that is because thousands were connecting to the servers and there was a pokestop with a lure every 5 spaces. I think it is much more stable now and definitely worth a casual play, but I'm slowly losing interest in it again.

I think the idea of raids are cool, but it still needs other things. Trading with other players and battling wild Pokemon to build CP would be nice possibilities.

Just tried a Zapdos raid a few hours ago. In a group on Discord for my community and a Zapdos spawned at the church not even two houses down from me. We got a group of 7 and took out a 42k Zapdos. Beat it with seconds to spare. Only one of us caught it (and he caught it on his first ball). Sadly I didn't catch it. Haven't even caught one legendary yet.

Aww. I've battled 3 now and couldn't catch any D: Hoping to have another shot today(last chance!!!) It's so hard to get numbers for raids though. I wish they'd make another way to get them or require less people!

Try searching around your community. Someone set up a Discord chat for it and we have number of people posting about raids and getting groups together. Haha, there's even an "airdrop" section so people that can spawn somewhere can help if you give them a location xD. I'm hoping to try again soon.
