This afternoon I checked our Raid group chat as there was some Raid activity going on in the city. Then I saw I got a text message from sweppman asking me if I had an EX Raid Pass for today's EX Raid at the Wooden Playground Gym. I told him I didn't have one and then he asked me if I wanted to have one. I said sure Wynaut? When he an invite with his Pass to me he said he sent it and then told me I had about 20 minutes to get to the Gym xD Because that EX Raid was apparently taking place today!

So I prepared myself to go outside and managed to make it to that Gym in time for the EX Raid to hatch. I was talking with him a bit there too. He said that he suddenly thought of me, didn't see me in the list of people attending that EX Raid and then decided to ask if I had a Pass for it or not. Since we already exchanged some before. Next time I have an EX Raid invite for a Gym where he doesn't have one I'll be sure to remember to give him one in return again!

The Raid itself went really well as we were with a big group of people. None of my Pokémon fainted, that's how easily we were able to beat it with this group. I was able to catch this Deoxys from the Raid with the first Premier Ball using a regular Razz Berry. I should've used a Pinap Berry instead for extra candy I guess! It's my 2nd highest CP Deoxys out of the 7 I caught so far. This one has 87% IV.

After this Raid we headed towards the local park with the Wooden Tree Sculpture Gym, where a level 4 Raid was going to hatch. Once everyone was there we waited there for a minute or two for it to hatch. It was an Alolan Marowak, not my favourite but I still did join in that Raid battle to use my free daily Raid Pass.

Looks like you had a good day! I don't get to do much in the way of high level raids, the groups in my area have basically fizzled out, and most of them are on Facebook. I deleted my FB 6 years ago, so I couldn't even join if I wanted to.

Yeah indeed!
Aww that's sad to hear :( Oh yes that's annoying :/ Perhaps they have a Whatsapp group too? In my city there used to be a Facebook group chat and one on Whatsapp. The Facebook chat kinda died as we started mostly using the Whatsapp one. Perhaps if you see some other players you can ask if there is a Whatsapp one or so too?

Nah, it's all Facebook.

Ah damn :( I hope you can find some people eventually to do some raids with regularly
