Pokemon Go was better before they added Remote raids and they should heavily restrict remote raids in a smarter way to undo the damage they did.

I think they should do a few things,

  1. Implement distance limits
  2. implement friendship level requirements to send invites
  3. remove or significantly increase the daily remote raid limit
  4. completely remove the inventory limit of remote raid passes. With the implementation of a daily limit of participation, there is no reason to restrict inventory of those remote passes.

Ingress > Pokemon GO

Well I haven't played in years, but I was super active in Ingress right until Pokemon Go became a thing. I found it so fun and innovative, and PG felt like Ingress with a skin, so it didn't hold my attention at all.

Eh, apples and oranges.

They're both AR-Geo games, built on the same engine, but they have TOTALLY different gameplay loops.

Ingress is a team turf war.

Pokemon Go is at its core a collection game.
