Pokemon Go players have slammed fellow trainers who keep leaving their Raids at the last second, as they keep losing and wasting their passes.

Pokemon Go’s Raids have proved to be a key part of the mobile pocket monsters game since they were first introduced.

In completing the numerous types of Raids, players can benefit from receiving useful rewards. However, they have come under fire many times by trainers for a whole heap of reasons, especially surrounding their lackluster rewards and the changes made to Remote Raid Passes.

Now, players have instead targeted their criticisms towards Pokemon trainers in the game that keep leaving their Raids at the last second and making it too difficult for them to complete.

Pokemon Go trainers call for players to avoid leaving Raids

Pokemon Go player GamingCanuck0 demanded that fellow trainers: “Stop leaving raids!”

“5 level 35+ players are enough to beat the tier 5 Raids. Why does everyone wait till the last few seconds to leave? I’ve lost so many Remote Raids because people want more than 5 players,” they said.

Various players agreed and revealed their own experiences.”That just happened to me. Whole team bailed, and I ended up wasting a Remote pass. Annoying as hell,” they revealed.

Another added, “I totally agree, I lost 2 Passes because of that, people are just scared, I hate this.”

While others suggested that an in-game chat would be useful. “I’ve noticed that if there’s 4-5 players and one player commits by clicking ready, then the other players are more inclined to stay. Niantic should make a limited in-chat feature for Raids,” one player commented.

The OP approved of the idea and further suggested adding phrases like ‘we can do this’ or ‘this won’t take long’ and etc. Other players can click thumbs up if they agree.”

Whether Niantic hears the cries and makes changes in the future remains unknown, although the developers have not made any major changes to how Raids work since they were first released.
