New wave of EX Raids – Largest wave of EX Raids appears to have rolled out in Europe and Asia

Trainers,

Reports are coming The next (and largest yet) wave of EX Raids appears to have just rolled out, travelers, this time including new regions and sponsors.

Ex Raids are now being tested in Europe and Asia in Addition to USA and Japan.

Reports indicate that the EX Raids are being appeared in several sponsored Gyms in EU and Asia: Starbucks, Jio, and Unibail. The only area where EX-Raids are reported in non-sponsored is in Chester, the UK where an event was previously held.

We believe that EX Raids will soon expand outside non-sponsored Gyms in Europe and Asia, as the same pattern is followed by Niantic through release in Europe and Asia, Sponsored gets first and then rest.
