There’s no topic for Suicune Day, so I’ll post my experience here. Yes, I actually got the chance to participate in a raid event for the first time!
I went to the nearest city (35 km away) for Suicune Day hoping I’ll be able to find a group of players to raid with. I arrived at the city center at 4 p.m. and I noticed a group of players with their cell phones in their hands! They had already done 1 raid and they headed to the next gym. I joined them. There were around 30 players! I finally met a player I was best friends with in the game. We did a special trade (look at the new Pokedex entry thread to see what I got 
). I also added 3 new players as friends in the game. I did 16 raids with the group (had plenty of premium raid passes that I had bought from boxes for previous events). I caught 15 Suicune, 1 fled from me. I got so many rare candies, several TMs and other items. I finally achieved the bronze medal in Battle Legend badge. I caught 4 Suicune with great IVs. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a shiny 
.
All in all, it was a great experience 
. But I still think we need Lucky Raid Passes or something to make solo legendary raids possible. I missed so many of these events and I can’t go to the city every time there’s a new event. It’s nice to have people to play the game with you, but it’s not always possible if you live in an area where no one plays (or not many people) and it’s not a big city.
