I always try to stay positive about Pokemon GO.
That being said - I think I can speak for a majority of the player base & say Mega Mewtwo is going to be the biggest chase for Global raids.
Not even from a background collector standpoint - but with 30ish raid bosses each day - Mewtwo (or whatever you are chasing) will be severely watered down with other raids.
Nothing is said yet about what will have backgrounds - but I'm willing to bet everything will.
The 1 saving grace will be that ONLY Mewtwo will have one, which makes sense with which ones were recently datamined (the purple DNA one & the Legendary raid one)
For an event that is 10 years in the making and will have a ton of returning players, this is WAY too overloaded for a 2 day event.
People even said Global Kalos Tour & the lead up was too much 😅
Do I think they will change it? Not in the slightest.
The whole idea of the "what's your favorite" and then Global being free is to try & draw in returning or new players - only for them to get slapped with 1-30 minute raid of your chase raid boss on the other side of the city.
I really hope @PokemonGoApp@scopely@NianticHelp really reconsider at least for future events to majorly decrease the amount of different raid bosses. The last thing they should want is GO to feel more like a chore than fun.
Again this is just my opinion - feel free to agree/disagree but please keep it civilized 😊
