Pokémon Go now lets you join Raids from your friend list

Pokémon Go simplifies raiding with friends! Now, you can easily join raids directly from your friends list if you're Great Friends or higher. No more hunting for invites – just hop in and help out! Prefer to solo? No problem, you can easily opt out of this feature in the settings.

It's a small but significant update, especially as the holidays approach and many players will be looking to coordinate gameplay. This change makes collaborating on raids much easier and reflects Niantic’s growing responsiveness to player feedback.

For complete details, check the official Pokémon Go blog. This seemingly small tweak is a welcome addition, improving the overall social aspect of the game.
