Should your Pokémon get knocked out at any point, you have a five-second penalty before respawning the first time, 10 seconds the next time, and it’s unlikely you’ll ever have time for a third.It almost never goes like this. Instead, when playing online via the Poké Portal, should you be lucky enough to get past theYou launch your first attack, and it knocks off far less of the Pokémon’s HP than you’re expecting. The Pokémon responds, but the attack takes ages to happen.
Or perhaps you’ll have a very different version of this, where for no understandable reason, the six-star Charizard you’re battling suddenly seems to lose most of its health in one inexplicable leap, and you get to catch it before it even buffs its HP.Or perhaps my favorite: the one where you’ve got the Pokémon’s HP down to zero, but for some reason, it doesn’t faint. So you all do another attack against its empty HP bar, and then it blasts you out of the raid as losers.
As I say, any of this cavalcade of tedium happens only if you fluke your way through the lobby. Here, you’re offered eight raids to choose from, but should you fail to get into the first you pick , all the others on-screen will have been filled and started long ago. You then have to sit and wait for the “Check for new postings” button to ping live, which takes a minute and 30 seconds , and repeat the process until you’re randomly lucky.
Since such raids are the only way to get certain Pokémon, not least Charizard, and a means to catch monsters exclusive to the version of the game you don’t have, they aren’t just a frivolous bonus. It’s an extremely frustrating experience, from the sluggish menus, to the unlikely chance of getting into a raid, to the huge wait before you can reload the available ones, to the enormous chances of all that time being wasted.
I don’t have a solution. I just want you to know it’s not just you, and it’s certainly not good enough.
Did Pokemon hurt you Kotaku
This is the only part of the game where I've had any real issues.
Finally something we came agreed on
I typically find Kotaku’s articles annoying, but I 100% agree with this one. Especially the whole segment about the lobby/trying to find random online raids. It is undeniably bad.
I just got Legends and I like the style and gameplay. Decided to hold off on S&V for now.
I haven’t tried any raids online yet. Hopefully gets patched before I reach the endgame content.
They are so frustrating :/ you never know what exactly is happening at any given moment
I failed a raid last night bc we all attacked and almost one shot a 5 star mimiku and it bugged out and wouldn't attack so the timer just ran out
