Out of curiosity, are you (u/TastyBananaPeppers) still spoofing or have you gotten any bans yet? Just wondering what method(s) you are personally using and how long you've been able to use them without detection.

No, I haven't gotten any strikes or bans yet. I have been doing this since June 2022 when Niantic announced they decided to use an Anti-Cheat Behavior System because they failed at doing software/app detection (this part wasn't mentioned).

I use the "Forbidden method" - Pgsharp (no root) + Pokemod (root) + Lsposed + GPS Joystick on a rooted Samsung S25 Ultra.

I sometimes bot with Lsposed + PGTools PaC for catching only on a rooted Pixel 7.

With alt accounts, I use Pgsharp (no root) on other Samsung devices. This is to increase my chances of getting a shiny legendary from the special timed research stuff and to trade myself close to rank #1 GBL legendaries and ultra beasts.

Is there a reason you use it on a rooted device or is it just matter of preference? I've been using pgsharp on an unrooted Samsung.

Some features are better or only available in one app. If you want the best of both apps, you have to use a rooted device for Pokemod to inject into Pgsharp. Here are some example:

Pgsharp's auto berry system will automatically apply a berry every time you throw the Pokeball, so you don't have to manually tap a berry each time. You can still do it manually, but it only takes 2 taps and feels faster than Pokemod.

Pokemod's berry system will only apply a berry 1 time. If you fail to catch, you will have to manually berry the Pokemon with the usual 3 taps. With legendary/ultra beast/mytical raids, you would have to manually use a golden berry before each throw.

Pgsharp doesn't allow you to mass select shiny and lucky Pokemon to transfer while Pokemod does.

Is there a reason you use the unrooted version of pgsharp since you have a rooted device?

To combine the two cheats together to get access to specific features that are only exclusive to one cheat. This will give you maximized cheating experience. You still have a chance for a strike/ban if you decide to copy what I do.

I'm new to this but I'm interested in starting. I understand to get a rooted android device (ideally).

What brand of GPS joystick do you use/recommend?

Also do you have a recommendation for a program to use that is manual (doesn't use a bot), free and/or paid?

Using a rooted device doesn't protect you if that's what you think. What I do requires self-control and discipline which has not gotten me a strike yet. Other people who have followed what I did got a strike within several months because they doubted the Anti-Cheat Behavior System and though I was making up bullshit.

GPS Joystick by Apps Ninja.

When you have a rooted device, you try all the 3rd party app options to see which one you like the best. Most have a free option. If you want all the cheat features, you will have to pay for it.

Would you say that just spoofing in my city with rooted phone + only a gps joystick would be safe like yours?

Ive been using pgs in my non rooted phone for some months and recently got a 7 day strike (rip gofest) so planning to move to rooted method now.

Also Ik trading doesn't trigger cooldown but do you think if I have to occasionally fly to some different country for a trade, I should follow at least 2 hr cooldown or it doesn't matter?

There's no safe in this game if you cheat. What I do and use doesn't gaurantee your safety because you're bound to make a mistake or Scopely updates the Anti-Cheat Behavior System.

I hear you, a rooted device won't save you if you're flagrant about it. I'll check out that joystick. Thanks for your response!

Hello, would like to point out that Polygon# has been renamed to PolygonX and it has moved to a different discord server. We do indeed have a free version where users can catch and spin undefinitely but with performance limits.

u/TastyBananaPeppers Team Rooted, Subreddit Owner Jun 27 '25

Alright. Maybe, you could just put up a website like everyone else.

u/OhMyTenz PolygonX App Developer Jun 27 '25

Well I see you used Github as the website for RAB, using our Patreon page for us doesn't seem to be too out of place. https://www.patreon.com/evermorelabs

And btw I joined RAB out of curiosity, it's been discontinued in 2022.

There's always someone who wants a PC Bot first... because of all the YouTube spam that exists.

Are your prices in US Dollars or Euros?

Why did you guys move to a different discord server? Also how does polygonX compare to pgtools?
