EX Raids - Changes to ex gym eligibility

Interestingly in a cell that has 2 ex eligible gyms, 2 days ago one had the ex raid gym tag and the other didn’t, yesterday and today it has swapped from what they were 2 days ago.

How/where do you find out what the cells are and what gyms are eligible?, I didn’t know you could do that.

Theres a few options:

You can see ingame wich gyms are EX-gyms by just tapping them and looking at the top right corner (new since last update).

Yup exraid locations got changed.almost the whole east side of our city is EX gym.1 of them that was a EX Raid gym,didnt have the icon “EX RAID GYM”.Very strange…

Thank you.

yesterday I found something about that lvl 13 cells are involved. 2 gyms can be EX in the same lvl 13 cell, but not host an Ex-raid at the same time. Can’t find it atm.

Yeah that was the old system. In the new system im not sure that still applies…

My EX gym at the park 45 minutes away was removed and put on the gym next to it

Can you keep an eye on both and check if that Ex Tag on the Gym(s) changes from week to week.
There’s been a thought that that Tag might change with a rotation schedule.
None of this can be proven or disproven yet as it’s too early.
We’ve got a couple we are watching atm.

Gyms locally have had the tag swap back and forth between them within the same level 14 cell.

It’s hard to know if it’s Niantic’s messing with it trying to get it setup the way they want or if that’s exactly how it supposed to be.

The next lot of Ex Passes didn’t come out this morning. Today was the day the came out last week.

Yeah but last weeks wave was an odd one. Raids 5 days after the invitations… Thats not supposed to happen i think.

I’ll let you know in 21 hours.

I have 1 EX gym near by, but the closest gym could be EX before the change. Now it ain’t. Checked the label. It isn’t. :weary:

The ex-raid gym tag appears to swap weekly between eligible gyms in the same level 14 cell when there are 2 or more.

Can you get two in 1 week? i asked this before but no answers.

I don’t believe you can. My town has tried on many occasions to trigger 2 in a week, many times only 1got triggered, but when both were triggered no one got passes to both.

1 from game invite.
Then 1 more (at a time) from friend invites. I heared of people doing 4 on the first day. But you cant hold 2 friend invites at the same time so you have to get new ones after youve done the first friend invited raid.

Obviously Niantic doesnt want this so that might (or already has) change.

Hmm so only from a friend cant recieve from game okay.

You can though gifting, not from regular invites.
