So we set out to create a feature that captures this feeling of growing a friendship. As you get to know someone, you become closer and your friendship is strengthened. When tight-knit friends take on a Raid Boss, even a small group can be mighty.In the real world, friendships build over time.

This adds more rewards and incentives for actions they're already taking and can be especially beneficial for smaller groups of Trainers that battle together.

Great Friends will receive not only an Attack bonus to help them take down a Raid Boss at a much faster rate, but also extra Premier Balls to catch the Pokémon when the battle is complete. Plus, how exciting would it be if one Trainer sent a Gift from a special vacation spot or an exclusive event?When designing this feature, we wanted friends to be able to help each other directly in Gyms and Raid Battles by activating bonuses. It's intentionally sentimental and brings two Trainers together in their travels. We want this to mirror the feeling of when a friend gives you a present from a store you enjoy or sends you a postcard from a far-off land. When receiving a Gift from a friend, Trainers will see a postcard from the PokéStop or Gym where the friend acquired the Gift. Gifts are initially obtained by spinning the Photo Disc at a PokéStop or Gym. After two Trainers have become friends, they'll be able to send each other Gifts. Once a Trainer shares their Trainer Code with someone, that person can then send them a Friend Request.
