"Pokemon Go Players Analyze Challenges of Catching Shadow Lugia in Local Raids"

Pokemon Go players are criticizing local Raids in the game, which require players to be physically present at the Raid location. Many players find this system frustrating, especially when the rewards are not guaranteed and the difficulty level is high. Rural players are particularly affected by this issue. Some players suggest allowing multiple completions of the Raid at the same gym as a possible solution. It is unclear if developer Niantic has plans to address these concerns.
