I had this same problem and solved it as follows:

sudo gem install cocoapods-try

After which I had a subsequent error when trying to install cocoapods:

ERROR:  Error installing cocoapods:
cocoapods requires cocoapods-trunk (~> 0.1.1)

Which lead me to try:

sudo gem install cocoapods-trunk

Finish up with one last sudo:

sudo gem install cocoapods

And you should be good to go! Hope it works for you!

I believe some unwanted problem may have occurred while installation, give a try by Uninstalling the cocapods and re installing it again like this :-

1) Uninstall CocoaPods (choose to uninstall all versions):

sudo gem uninstall cocoapods

2) Remove old master repo:

sudo rm -fr ~/.cocoapods/repos/master

3) Install CocoaPods without sudo:

gem install cocoapods

4) Setup CocoaPods and Master repo:

pod setup

"sudo" keyword is used to tell OS you are giving command as an Admin, so do write sudo while installation (just mentioning for the safer side)

Hmm... do you have the admin right for the Machine ?, try with sudo then, sudo gem install cocoapods
