I only add irl people or my old accounts so i can trade with myself
Flavlless
Why wont you chat with them and maybe go on a vacation for some poketrading and chill.

A chat system might solve this issue and make long distance trading so much more possible. Why is it not implemented till now?

I don’t know most of my Pokémon go friends; they’re from poke genie raids.

I have 9, and 6 are in within 10 minutes driving distance!

I have like 60 friends I dont know from using pokegenie. Good for vivillion postcards though! I almost have a full collection.

Been sending gifts and raiding with my gf since 2018 and still haven’t been lucky friends. Ive never had a lucky friend since I’ve been playing! I feel like they don’t exist lol

I have someone in Israel who is a lucky friend 🥲

I really wish they would add *some* form of distance trading.
They could keep the region Pokémon exclusivity by adding a stipulation that you can only do this trade for something that exists in your Pokedex already.
Something like the Rocket Takeover event, where maybe for 24 hours, you have the opportunity to do 1 single unlimited distance trade with a lucky friend.
And maybe this event happens like 3-5 times a year, or however many times they want to do it.

I have 10 lucky friends and know none of them IRL either

They’ll add limitless exchange range once, nobody plays the game anymore.
DaveRedfox
I have 90 friends, I know only 1 irl and she doesn’t really play as often as me, lol

Wish Niantic would help the community out with long distance trades,I’m a player from South africa and we can’t organize shit to play together,so for now I’m just basically playing com days and wasting my time
thedeadsigh

I have 152 “friends” on Pokémon go. One is my brother and the other one is an ex- co-worker. Both of them don’t play anymore. Then there is a friend of a friend of a friend. My friend says we’ve met before but I’m not so sure because I got his code from twitter and he lives in another city. None of my friends live in the city I live in.

In a similar boat. I have multiple “friends” that have spread all over the globe after they lived here for a little while training at the military base near by.

My most recent lucky friend lives in Uruguay. I live on the east coast of the US. I think I have a few out in Germany or the Netherlands, too.

I recently got my cousins to start playing. So yesterday all six of us siblings grouped up to defeat a Regidrago.
Most fun I’ve had on this app.

I’ll be honest, didnt even know you could have lucky friends

My boyfriend is jealous of all my lucky friends because he’s not one my bestest ultra lucky friend. Even though I have no idea who most of the people are. 😆
Agent_B0771E
The friends I personally know in my list never connect lol.
Also it would be kinda nice to have more range to see last connection, it doesn’t make sense that 2 days, 1 week and 1 month give the same message. At least it should go from “X days” to “1 week or more”
remyrawr2
What?? Does everyone get info of recent activity on the friends list??
ParasaurolophusZ
Just fly across the world and visit them in person, one a day, without any means to communicate.
That’s how Niantic devs think friends are supposed to work in this game.

I have 396 friends I know like 10 max irl.

Lucky friends aren’t all that, it’s just as easy to delete them as it is regular friends. When friends stop sending gifts and you need room its not a big deal to get rid of them
AmphibianImpressive3
I know 1 person IRL out of the 381 people on my friends list.
Waffles340
I have 12 lucky friends and none I know irl. They’re not even in my region 😭😭
rca_2011
Ironically this is the real issue with the spewpa release. It incentives you to add friends you don’t know and to do the work that you’ll never be rewarded for. Vivillion needs revamped.
WeeCountyGamer_09
Going lucky friends with someone should let you do at least one long distance trade. That way, it helps when adding people you don’t know irl/who live abroad.
Feeling_Wave5202
You can find friends without using a spoofing app. I’ve got over 100 that I’ve never actually met in real life.
ogskizz
I finally made lucky friends with a guy I know from bumping into each other at professional conferences, he lives a few states away. So now I just have to attend a boring 3-day conference to get the chance at my first lucky Pokemon. F
