Niantic wants Pokémon GO players to give a shout out to their fellow Trainers during Rising Heroes

Remember that Trainer who traded you a Pokémon to help you complete your Pokédex?

How about the Trainer who opens your Gifts every day?
Or the Trainer you adventure with every Community Day?

Give them a shout out in the comments or tell their story using #RisingHeroes! pic.twitter.com/exlPk0XPf5

Remember, Trainers: a heroic deed is honorable whether you’re recognized for it or not.

Check in on your friends. You’re not bothering them. It may seem insignificant in the moment, but sometimes the smallest things can make a huge difference.
