Last weekend, for the first time ever, I won a Raid Battle in Pokémon Go. And it wasn’t just a standard Raid, but a legendary Pokémon battle — the most anxiety-inducing, important Raid battles of all.

Imagine how stoked I was to be surrounded by enough high-level trainers to actually defeat Kyogre, the legendary Pokémon featured in Raid battles nationwide for a limited time. And then imagine how not-so-stoked I was when I remembered, ah, yes, Raid Battles are a two-step process ... and the second step is so frustrating that I’m almost utterly turned off the co-op feature entirely.
