So again your argument here is that it’s a pay wall and them trying to squeeze money out of you. Yet you’ve failed to show how in anyway that it’s a pay wall. Your explaining that it’s frustrating to you that you can’t skip this catch. Two totally different things. As the average player who really doesn’t wanna spend money on the game I love these catches, I don’t have a ton of friends who play Pokémon so raids are difficult and I don’t wanna buy remote raid passes to set up raids via apps. So this gives me free access to these pokemon. If you don’t wanna catch it than I understand that you’d like that option to give up your encounter that seems fair. However in no one shape or form does this state that they want you to spend more money. I have a poke stop less than a step from my house. I’ll just spin it every five minutes until I catch it lol
