"Please Niantic, allow us to do distant lucky trades"

#PokemonGO: I've moved away from long time friends about 2 months ago but I've been able to stay in touch with them through discord and other means of messaging along with the rest of the community members back home who I've been playing with regularly. I know that Niantic's goal is to encourage face to face interactions but this wouldn't work so well when best friends who've move away from each other for various reasons. The odds of getting a lucky friend per best friend is very low in the first place, so I always thought this restriction didn't really make much sense especially since we can already do remote PvP battles.In my case and I'm sure many others who are in the same boat as me, feeling the need to resort to account sharing to be able to do lucky trades with friends back home wouldn't be something Niantic would be happy with but this is exactly what this pointless restriction promotes. I also have no idea when Ill get the chance to see them again so it's either I resort to account sharing or wait for however long till I can do lucky trades with them again because I don't plan to delete them from my friends list. So please let us do remote lucky trades, the odds are already low to keep this mechanic balanced. via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/2MMzCtJ
