Niantic have announced the next Pokémon GO features.
First are Raid invites which will allow for you to invite friends to raid battles regardless of the friend's location. In the menu, a + button will appear in both public and private lobbies. When you're at the raid in person you can invite up to 5 friends to join and they'll be able to see it in their Nearby or with push notifications. Your friends will use a pass when the battle starts
Next, you'll soon be able to add stickers to Gifts that you send to friends. Originally you'll be able to only send one of five stickers and you can only use them once. You can get Stickers by opening gifts and in the future you'll be able to purchase some from the shop
