The Official Pokémon GO Blog just announced a new update on EX Raid invites. The developers of Pokémon GO have initiated a series of updates to improve Trainer and Gym selection. A system glitch resulted in many Trainers receiving EX Raid invites from a gym they hadn't visited in months. This failure, as announced by the blog itself, has already been conveniently resolved, and future invitations will be much more suitable for them to work correctly.
Pokémon GO improves EX Raid Battles
In addition, the developers at Niantic have also made a couple of changes that will directly affect the invite process. First of all, they have made changes to the way gyms will be selected. While EX Raids will continue to take place in parks and sponsored sites, the number of gyms that will meet the requirements to be able to run a Raid will increase. In addition, the average number of Guest Trainers per gym will also be higher, as certain changes have been made to the way they are selected. Thanks to these two changes, many more Trainers will be able to enjoy EX Raids.
The quality of the EX Raids in these locations needs to improve, they say so themselves.In this regard, Trainers with a higher level Gym Badge now have higher chances of receiving an invite for an EX Raid at that location. Similarly, Trainers who complete more Raid Battles (anywhere) in the week prior to sending EX Raid Battle invites will now have a higher chance of being selected.
Next, the blog post thanks any feedback users have shared over the past few weeks and also apologizes for any impediments to the game that the last batch of invites caused. The developers are, in their own words, constantly monitoring the user feedback on various social media and support channels, so please keep sharing your feedback on through social networks.
