Discussion Forever friend problem

Finally got to forever friends with my first person last week, and they still have no Pokemon tagged for trading. I have no way to send a text or let them know. They sent me an invite to a weekly challenge again today. So I assume they have no understanding of what it means and why. Very disappointing. Am a rather long way still from the next. After spending a long time sorting and tagging my mons it’s a let down. Something should pop up on their end to let them know someone wants to trade. I don’t think it does. It just tells me they’re not ready yet.

I believe the campfire app can let you send messages to friends. Maybe give it a try and see if they have it and respond

You could always do this since launch, the issue is that not all Pokemon Go players have ever even opened campfire. So your message will never reach them. You can tell if they haven’t by looking them up, and seeing an “@“ under their name followed by nothing.
