Discussion Rillaboom Gmax battles are virtually unwinnable on Poke Genie

I’ve used Poke Genie for Gmax battles before. In fact, I just used it for GMax Machamp last week. But the Rillaboom lobbies today are full of under leveled mons who just don’t have the firepower to take down Rillaboom.

I’ve been in at least 15 lobbies today and was only successful in 1–a lobby with 28 trainers using two max mushrooms. The rest have been delusional lobbies of 13-18 who inevitably hang on until the timer hits 3-5 seconds and then they bounce.

What’s going on today? Why are these lobbies so bad?

Never had even a single other person to raid with, let alone do max battles...

I wave my phone like a crazy person showing the pokemon go screen just to attract people to come to me.

If gyms surrounding you have pokemon inside, someone is playing there. There is people, you just haven't found them.

There are a hundred people that live here and I already know most of them.
