Players can invite friends to raids in Pokemon Go. This guide will help players learn how they can invite their friends to join them. Pokemon Go is one of the biggest mobile games in the world. Players can team up all around the world and come together to defeat challenging raid battles. To be successful in these raids, playing alone is not an option. Trainers could have the most powerful Pokemon in the game and not even come close to defeating a raid battle. Friendship and teamwork are required to take on 5-star raids, likely holding rare legendary and Shiny Pokemon. Here's how players can invite friends over to join them in raids.

Pokemon Go changed the world when it released back in 2016. Trainers would spend hours, exploring their neighborhoods, and spending that warm Summer in the great outdoors. The game at the time only featured the first 151 Pokemon from the Kanto region but as the game continued to develop new features, new generations of Pokemon released as well. Currently, the game is on the brink of releasing Pokemon from the sixth generation from Pokemon X and Y. It is likely that many six-generation Pokemon will appear in raids in the near future. Here's how players can invite friends to join them in raids.

Here is a step-by-step guide to inviting a friend to a raid in Pokemon Go.

  • Step 1: Join a raid. It can be a public or a private raid.
  • Step 2: Click the invite friends button on the right side of the screen.
  • Step 3: Invite up to 5 friends to join the raid. They can use Remote Raid passes or regular Raid passes.
  • Step 4: Wait for the friends to join the raid.
  • Step 5: Work together to win.

It's recommended to bring at least 7 other players when participating in 5-star raids. These 5-star raids are the most challenging in the game and contain legendary Pokemon. With the sixth generation of Pokemon right around the corner, it is likely that Pokemon like Xerneas and Yvetal will appear in raid battles in the near future. Playing with friends also provides bonuses like extra Pokeballs during the capture period of the battle. Also, continuing to build friendships in the game will provide experience bonuses. Players can raise these levels by sending gifts, trading, and participating in raids together. Pokemon Go is one of the best mobile games in the world.
