I love the game! However there are a few recent updates that have myself and just about every other player pretty ticked off. as someone who grew up watching the original Pokémon air on tv, begging my parents to buy the $3-$4 pack of trading cards, it’s a kid from the 90s dream come true. The infuriating updates are for items in the shop, you used to be able to buy 3 mobile raid passes (allows players to invite others to battle remote raids together) for 250 poke coins which is roughly $2.50 USD, but they RAISED the price to almost $2 for a SINGLE pass… also you’re able to send gifts to friends in the game and you can postcard gifts in an album, which I thought was really cool debut as having friends in Australia and other “across the pond” locations being from east coast USA except there used to be no limit on how many you could add to your album and with that recent update you now have to pay to buy additional “pages” for said album… im sure I’ve spent a couple hundred prior to these updates but since the increase I’ve noticed less raid invites obviously from more players being less abled to even play remote raids on their own ultimately resulting in less invites for friends to join in the battles. Hopefully they’ll come to their senses and realize how detrimental this has been to the experience. Ninantic is a MULTI BILLION dollar company and it seems like a rather greedy change to the app assuming remote raid passes are one of their top sellers in the shop.
