Finding friends is an important part of the game Pokémon GO. Sometimes this even offers players considerable advantages.
How to find friends worldwide in Pokémon GO
Finding friends in Pokémon GO is not always easy. Especially if you know hardly any or no players in your own circle of friends. It can be even more difficult to find friends all over the world.
- A good way to find friends is to use the PoGo GUIDE site. Here, every registered player can post his or her friend code and thus attract the attention of others worldwide. If you don’t want to become a member, you can simply ask for the friend codes that have been posted.
- Players who are looking for friends for the Pokémon GO game worldwide can also exchange their codes in the PokémonGoFriends subreddit. Here you can also either post requests yourself or use the shared codes to find new friends around the world.
- The Pokémon GO Friend Codes page has a single purpose. The sharing of friend codes around the world. So this page is also the perfect place to go to find fellow players.
- On Gamepress there is also a list of codes from trainers all over the world. If you want to post requests yourself, you must first register. Alternatively, you can use the codes shared there without registering.
That’s why it pays to have friends worldwide in Pokémon GO
Theoretically, you can also play the game Pokémon GO completely without friends. However, some tasks cannot then be completed. Trainers can also send each other gifts, which can contain hatching eggs, items and stardust. Having friends all over the world is especially rewarding.
- If you hatch eggs from foreign countries, the country of origin is considered the Pokémon’s capture location. If you then swap this Pokémon with another trainer, you will get a corresponding number of swap kilometres and more sweets.
- Friendly trainers can invite each other to raids all over the world. For this, you also need a special long-distance raid pass. Since some Pokémon or special forms only appear regionally in Raids, you can also get Pocket Monsters that are not actually available in Germany.
- You can only get the Pokémon “Purmel” if you save enough postcards in your album. For this you need friends and girlfriends. The special thing about this Pokémon is that it can evolve into Vivillon. This comes in 18 different forms. Which one your Purmel gets depends on which region of the world the postcards came from. So without having friends all over the world, it’s almost impossible to get all the forms of Vivillon.
