Niantic Struggles with Remote Raid Changes and HearUsNiantic Movement in Pokemon Go.
Niantic has commented on the recent changes to the Remote Raid Pass system in Pokemon Go, stating that the decision to add limitations and adjust the pricing was difficult but necessary. Internal data showed that some players were doing dozens or even hundreds of legendary raids in a single day without leaving home, which was antithetical to the game's original vision. The changes were made to get the game back to what the team first envisioned, with a focus on physical locations in the real world and fostering local communities. The comments came during an interview discussing the new Shadow Raids, which begin on May 22.
