I am facing the same problem and I resolved it by issuing using the following command

sudo gem install cocoapods --source http://rubygems.org

OK, I just had this problem. If anyone seems to have this problem DO NOT change directories.

Load up terminal and straight away add the line -

sudo gem install cocoapods

Worked for me.

Make sure you have Xcode installed in your Mac. After opening for the first time you need to accept the Terms & Condition and may need to install some components. Once it is setup and working, then install Pod:

sudo gem install cocoapods
