Niantic has responded to the HearUsNiantic movement and the controversy surrounding the Remote Raid feature in Pokémon Go. In an interview, Pokémon Go director Michael Steranka and senior producer John Funtanilla acknowledged the community backlash but stated that they believe their recent decisions are necessary for the longevity of the game and align with their mission. They also mentioned that the team has been working on new features for the game that will be released over the course of the year. Niantic has no plans to reverse recent changes to the game.
Pokemon Go players are urging each other to continue the boycott against Remote Raid changes ahead of the Togetic Community Day event. The boycott was organized in response to an update that increased the price of Remote Raid passes and introduced a daily limit.
