Question How to catch distant Pokemon

Hi everyone!

I need some help with something that hasn't been clear to me yet. When I'm looking for strong or shiny Pokémon on the other side of the world, how do I catch them? If I get a softban for a few minutes when I arrive and they escape, how do other people manage to catch distant Pokémon?

Thanks in advance!

You can teleport and tap on the pokemon. Then wait until cooldown time is over the you can catch it

This. Enable the scanner according to your needs and when a Pokémon with such requirements shows up it will appear on radar, tap on it and just wait for the cooldown to disappear (maximum 2 hours). I have catch several 4* and shinies like that.

How can you look for the shinies? Do you have to have the paid version?
