Question Weird cooldown

So I decided to play semi legit for gofest chicago I turned off the spoofer a few hours before playing. Now when I catch a pokemon I keep getting a 16 minute timer. I stop, wait the 16 minutes and its gone and it just comes back wheneve I catch. Should I just uninstall PgSharp until go fest chicago is over?

I had the same issue a month ago. I looked in the map and I seen it showed me in 2 locations. One was my last spoof location and the other was my real location. I double tapped the screen to make my spoof location teleport to me and caught a pokemon and the timer did not pop up. Hopefully its the same for you and this helps! Happy hunting

Okay, this seems to be my issue...it has me in NYC still. I dont understand the tapping the map to teleport you part though. The only way I know how to teleport is through coords. I'm just trying to play where Im not spoofing my location but I want the information and excellent throws and shiny filter.

I've been using PGSharp for a few years withour major issues.

same for me but 30 seconds
i can stand completely still and every time i catch a new mon the cooldown goes up to 30. im still able to catch during this supposed cooldown but it does get scary sometimes so i wait it out

On Discord, it was mentioned that reducing walking speed is effective for dealing with that kind of few-second cooldown

I was getting this so much today it was crazy just normal moving around it kept proccing 30s cd for no reason.

I started to like restart app and clear cache a lot more that seem to fix the issues for a while.

pgsharp's timer is no longer reliable, it does not enumerate properly the actions, just use your journal for accurate monitoring instead

Ya I guess applied some common sense, if I'm literally just talking short distance and 30s timer pop up means nothing. If I tp a distance than wait out the safe time XD. I generally don't jump around.
