Ya comparatively tougher. Tried a 6-Pokémon gym this morning and couldn't take it down after 4-5 rounds of battle. And pple are healing them! Team work is best!

Totally agree. So pissed after standing there 30-40 min and I couldn't even gun them down. All the feeders...zzz..

Apparently you can get the raid passes even if level is below 35. Can start accumulating the passes. 

 

Longest gym held today was 16 hours... in exchange for 16 coins.. 

 

Coin rewards adjusted: now it's 1 coin for 10 mins. My tyrannitar was parked for 3 hrs 10 mins, so got 19 coins, which isn't too bad. Now is easier to park; when everyone starts strategizing later...arrggghhh! :doh:

Took part in 3 one after another.  My estate had 4 Raids lined up.  Wristache now....:frustrated:

Took down a Blastoise in the first, Arcanine then Gengar.  The rewards - 3 x TM, some weird silvery balls, rare candy and golden berries.  And revives, which I threw away.  Used up both my raid passes and my prem raid pass.  Time to rest.

I believe the weird silvery ball you're referring to is the Premier Ball.

Oh ok.  Then they are better than the Ultra?  I guess I'll just keep them for "emergencies" hahah.  Dark Eggs.... :P

Talk about a crowd at the market.  There were at least 25 aunties and ah peks and maybe 2-3 kids going after the Blastoise.

Eh it has the same catch rate as a regular Pokéball, but it's meant for special events in the main games, I presume that Premier Ball is just rewards purposes and bragging rights for those who clear the Gym. :P

So did you manage to catch the boss pokemon i.e. the one hatched from the raid egg? I just tried a level 1 Raid this morning and fought a 5000+ CP Typhlosion, used like 4 Premier balls to catch it and found that - when caught - it had been nerfed to a 800+ CP Quilava, but a high CP one (haven't checked IV yet...) Wondering if that was a bug, or does anyone really end up with a mega-poke e.g. 10000 CP or somethin'?

Just tried a gym raid against a giant snorlax. but timed out before we could take it down :( There were only 3 participants including myself even though it was an mrt station.. Arrgh wasted my raid pass

 

How high was the snorlax's CP? What level was your raid i.e. the 'demon' faces at the bottom of the egg before hatching...

Definitely nerf lah, otherwise will be ridiculously high.

 

Did one successful raid, entered a raid quite late so most of the heavy work all done, i only tap like 3 times and got to share the loot, but probably lower share, only 2 special candies, 1 premiere ball to catch the boss and some golden razz.

 

App crashes like mad, fight one pokemon can crash 3 times. Gym takeover also harder, have to fight the same mom 3-4 times, so if there are 6 mons it'll take a long time.

Yup.  Low CP, PesB IV.  So returned for the candy.

So the best is when you have your Pokemon parked in the gym when the raid starts, technically your mon will be stuck in there for an hour right?

Yesh!!!

 

 

Good luck to everyone else here with your raids.  Do try again just after midnight to get a new raid pass!  Or shop in the store for premium passes.

Hope you catch the Level4s!

1. You can use the raid to "shop for" missing pokemon in your pokedex.

 

2. Example: I don't have Tyranitar in my Pokedex. Over next few days, I will be looking for raids where the boss pokemon is a Tyranitar

A successful raid will give me a Tyranitar.

Hahaha, you still have to be successful in catching the Pokemon though. My friend used up all his balls on Tyranitar but still failed. :P

Raid requirements are already lowered to level 28 or something.  One of my neighbourhood aunties is level 28 and she joined in the lvl4 raid at the market (squeals and all).

The latest update from Twitter is that Level 25 and above can join raids. :)

I did that twice yesterday, timing is really important, yesterday's total haul was 31 coins. 

 

Fought a Lapras boss yesterday with a band of strangers, most of them got FB/B whereas I got WG/B... ugh.

Seems like both servers and user phones under pressure, esp. older phone models and some Androids...from what I gather reading the FB pogo group posts. Just don't panick, calmly reboot and re-enter the Raid. Your Raid pass lasts for the entire one hour (if you're there right from the beginning), so keep calm right up to catching the Raid Boss! :ph34r:

The bugs/lags are really bad.  Bf and I both got hung out of catching the raid boss yesterday, him using iPhone7 and me Samsung S7.  Luckily we got our raid rewards though.  Had a friend and her hubby drive us all around yesterday, managed to get 3 T-tars, 1 Venusaur, 1 Snorlax and 2 Arcanine raids before retiring for dinner.  

 

For those of you planning to take over gyms prior to a raid, do note that you have to complete the takeover 10 seconds before the raid.  We got kicked out of one with the message "Raid Boss has taken over the gym". at the 10-sec mark, just as we were about to deal the killing blow.

Thanks for this important info, i was also about to deal the finishing blow when i got kicked out.

 

Killed my first tyranitar in raid, luckily there were a few other (5)player and a few (3)hacker if not we cant kill it before time out..

Are there a lot of pokestops and gyms around that area? Some people have noted that where there are, the game play will lag like crazy.

Ooo, btw does the game crash alot on iphone 7? Think its terrible on iphone 6&+. 

 

The timing to occupy gyms before egg hatch really tricky, failed miserably yesterday, last few seconds got booted out and wasted so many potions and also wasted my raid pass yesterday.

This is one of those times where spoofers' presence are appreciated lol

 

Did you manage to catch it? I won against the tyra raid boss with perfect moveset, but ran away despite using up all the golden razz berries and premier balls... I almost bawled my eyes out

i think there is around 3 gyms and a few pokestops. me and my friend notice that the gym location and actual stop is exactly at the fountain but nearer to the road near the exit of the mall's carpark

Yes only time i am happy to have spoofer around. but i hate it when i holding a gym that going to start raid and spoofer took it down min before the boss hatch.

I caught it with 3 balls remaining, it kept deflecting the balls. it have iron tail and stone edge.

The same raid boss spawn different moveset, example: my lapras got water moves but my friend got ice moves from the same raid.

Today I think I got spoofed by a bot. Took down this entire fresh gym by myself, all six fully-motivated pokemons (cuz the Raid would be starting in about an hour). Kicked them all out and placed my Blissey in...and found that the gym couldn't change colour! This was at Chinatown's Sri Mariaman temple...not sure if it was a bug, but 5 mins later, after leaving the gym, the original colour's team took over again.

 

Should I report this to Niantic? :swear:
