When a Facebook Friend imports their data into Pokémon GO, your Facebook Profile name and photo will be used along with your Trainer name, so Friends can recognize your Trainer profile. We will only have access to a Friend List consisting of Facebook Friends who are already on Pokémon GO and have also chosen to import Facebook Friends.

Note: Niantic won’t have access to a list of all your Facebook Friends.

In Map View, navigate to your Trainer Profile. If you manage to reach a high level with your Friend, you will have many bonuses, including increased Pokemon Attack and earning more Premier Balls, but this is only if you are in Raids or battles together.
