Pokémon Go Adds RSVP Planner for Raid and Event Mapping

If you're a Pokémon GO trainer who loves taking part in Raid Battles, the game’s brand-new RSVP planner is here to revolutionize how you plan and join events. Whether you're teaming up with friends or connecting with fellow trainers in your area, this feature makes coordination easier—and more efficient—than ever before.

We've all been there: arriving late to a Raid, struggling to locate your squad, or accidentally heading to the wrong Gym. With the new RSVP planner, those days are over. This tool removes the guesswork from meeting up, helping you stay on top of local Raids and ensuring you never miss out on the action.

Know Who’s Coming and Where

One of the standout features of the RSVP planner is the ability to see which players are planning to attend specific Raids. On the map, you’ll get a clear view of upcoming events, including how many trainers have already confirmed their attendance. This gives you a better idea of whether it's a solo mission or a full-group effort.

You can also receive invites to Raids hosted by others, set personal reminders for event start times, and access detailed information such as scheduled time slots. It’s like having a built-in Raid calendar that keeps you fully informed and always ready to go.

Never Get Lost Again

Worried about finding your way to the Raid location? The RSVP planner includes helpful navigation tips that guide you straight to the event. No more circling the block or second-guessing your route—just smooth, stress-free travel so you arrive right on time.

A Social Step Forward

The social aspect of Pokémon GO has always been one of its strongest draws. From the early days of discovering Pokémon in the real world to forming friendships through shared Raid victories, the game has always encouraged players to connect.

With the RSVP planner, Niantic continues to build on that foundation. It’s a smart balance between offering flexibility and promoting real-world exploration. Whether you're catching up with old friends or making new ones, this feature helps bring players together in a meaningful way.

Best of all, the RSVP planner is already live—so don’t wait! Jump into an event near you and experience firsthand how much easier (and fun) coordinating Raids can be.
