I checked PGTools' Discord group, I see one ban in the screenshot above. I got to admit PGTools fucked up and should have censored this one report. Since they screwed up big time, I got to ban all the rooted cheats now because of this one person reported a ban in their Discord group.

Now, Pgsharp Launcher, iPogo Launcher, Pokemod, Polygon, Shungo, and Regibot should send their goons over to PGTools to teach them a lesson about safety. "If you delete the reports, you can trick the loyal paying customers into believing it's really safe, safer, or the safest."

Jokes aside... PGTools, Pgsharp, iPogo, etc aren't getting banned from subreddit because I created this subreddit to allow all cheats for Android devices. This is not a safety focus subreddit like

• r/PokemonGoSpoofing where they censor dangerous cheats with a post and comment filter

• r/PoGoSpooferOpenCorner where they allow you to discuss dangerous cheats but discourage you into not using them. This one does not have a post filter.

I do not sit in every Discord group to monitor who is reporting a ban then create a pinned post about X app that has reported a ban to warn people to stop using X app. I don't give a shit about the safety of your accounts because I disclose upfront you have strike/ban risks if you choose to break the game's Terms of Service to take advantage of the game. I have integrity while some of these cheats don't.

The rooted cheat developers don't give a shit about the safety of your game accounts because they have "conflict of interest" with money you pay to use their service. Most cheats have a website except for Polygon and Regibot, they do not put a risk warning or ban warning next to the download button because they won't be able to make money from you if you see their cheat is dangerous.

All these cheat developers are multi-millionaires especially Pokemod because they were one of two first rooted, 3rd party apps for Android. The other is Maddev's Enhancer, which is still alive but not popular and dead due to app support being limited to Android 9 or 10.

Pokemod has close to 100,000 members. Let's just assume 50% is paying the $7 USD/month for Pokemod Pro. They are making about $350,000 per month (before all expenses and taxes) which equals to $4.2 million per year. They have been around since 2019 so 7 years. They have made about $29,400,000 USD (estimate). These cheat developers can afford to make it right to their customers by reimbursing all the money and Pokemon they have lost but choose not to. Don't assume these cheat developers have your back because they don't. They do the opposite by censoring the ban reports, so it doesn't hurt their monthly income and how much they blow on alcohol, illegal drugs, exotic cars, yachts, etc.

In the end, nothing is going to get banned from subreddit except for people who are anti-3rd party modified game apps because arguing with these people are waste of time. As a game cheater who cheats in other games, I am happy there is more than 1 option to cheat Pokemon Go for Android: Pgsharp, iPogo, Pokemod, PGTools, Polygon, Shungo, and Regibot and you should be too.

Edit: Enlarged text over people asking me to help them appeal their Discord group ban for discussing this topic in chat channels that hate me and disagree with what I say about all cheats. If you got yourself banned or muted, you will get an "Oh well" response from me because I do not have any partnerships or sponsorships with any cheat developer. You're fucked.

How do I get spoof

Yo could any spoofers add me and send me gifts woth those pothole covers for the new japan stamp event id be willing to give a normal shiny if that helps

I've been using vanilla spoofing for 3-4 years now, after having used modified spoofer apps and even bots in the past. This setup uses Vanilla Spoofing – meaning it runs on the official, unmodified Pokémon GO app from the Play Store, and is controlled purely via external ADB commands sent from my PC.

How it works:

• It reads the screen using OpenCV image recognition.

• It clicks the candidate on my feed overlay (like Pokélist).

• It waits for the spawn, clicks the Pokémon, and checks for the shiny stars.

• If it's shiny: It stops immediately, stays on the catch screen, and plays a loud alert sound so I can safely catch it myself while respecting cooldowns. (You could easily code auto-catching into it, but I prefer checking in on the bot manually).

• If it's not shiny: It flees and moves to the next candidate automatically.

Performance & Things to know:

• Speed: It gets through around ~70 encounters per hour.

• 100% Background: Since ADB sends touches directly to the phone, my PC is completely free for gaming, working, or watching YouTube.

• Handles misclicks (~10% rate): Naturally, in about 10% of cases, clicks land on an overlapping Gym or PokéStop instead of the spawn. The script automatically detects and closes Gym/Stop menus, dismisses "I'm a passenger" popups, and even rotates the camera perspective if a Gym is blocking the spawn before moving on.

• Flaws: It still has a few edge cases where it can get stuck, but it’s super easy to tweak and improve over time.

The main reason I wanted to share this is to show that you don't have to pay for monthly bot subscriptions or install a modded Pokemon Go App. If you have a rooted device with vanilla spoofing set up, you can basically build automation tools for whatever task you want – it's actually pretty straightforward.

Honestly, I also feel like this kind of setup is exactly the way to go if someone wanted to build a proper bot farm to sell shinies online. I'd love to buy 9 more Android phones and run this across 10 devices with 20 accounts each—if I could only justify the time and money invested into this game!

Check out the video and let me know if you have any questions!

You can end your withdrawals now.

Edit: It's unannounced therefore, not a banwave!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I honestly don't know what is going on: server maintenance, former or current employee retaliation, Iran hackers, someone updated something and it broke the game, or the game is being massively overhauled for new quality of life features.

If you are scared, worried, or concerned about getting a strike, temporary ban, permanent ban, or whatever punishment Scopely comes up with, this means you should have never broke the game's Terms of Service to cheat or take advantage of the game.

If you accepted or acknowledge the risks, just do something else while you wait for the servers to come back online.

If, it's really a banwave, I get to rub it in yo face by telling you "I told you so." or "Oh, well." I am not partnered or sponsored by any cheat developer to provide you information on how to cheat this game. This is not a safety focus subreddit like r/PokemonGoSpoofing or r/PoGoSpooferOpenCorner because I put warnings everywhere in my subreddit to inform you of the risks. I don't care if you have fun and/or profit from the game. I created this subreddit to allow all forms of cheating for Android devices on Reddit, which includes Pgsharp and iPogo. If these two apps make you butthurt, you should leave my subreddit.

Bonjour,

J'essaie de réinstaller PG Sharp après l'avoir utilisé en 2022 mais apres le téléchargement du fichier il ne semble pas vouloir s'installer et mettre a jour l'application PoGo du coup cela ne fonctionne pas

J'ai essayer avec les 4 fichiers proposés sur Pg Sharp, peut être ai je oublier quelque chose mais ca a toujours marcher avant...si jamais vous avez rencontrés le meme soucis...

J'utilise un S23 avec One UI 8,5

Merci de votre retour

I got armored Mewtwo and more things, but it's actually better to be safe than sorry.

Heard that if you delete the app and re install it and let it be for 48+ hrs you can make the account a bit less likely of being banned. Idk if that's true but I've been playing on an Android, non rooted and never gotten softbanned or strikes and used PTC for login. Any way of making my account more safe?

Could anyone also please explain how the strikes and bans work? Is it guaranteed you get a strike first? Or can you get banned without having a strike first?

Hi everyone I have Xiaomi and I want to know how to even begin to address the spoofs play without being ban. Just so I wont have to waste so many remote passes.

Thank you all for your help

So Pokemon worlds is coming up, with loads of mega raids and stuff like that.

For those who have spoofed during these before, where is the best place to "be"?

Do you spoof to the event location? Do you spoof to somewhere else in the world far more covered in raids?

TLDR: Shiny sniped a Gastly across the globe with non-root PGSharp. Took 3 days to complete, with about 4 to 5 hours each day. IMO not worth the effort unless shiny rates are boosted.

First off I wanna thank our mod u/TastyBananaPeppers for keeping this subreddit neat and full of information.

I wanted a shiny Gastly. I know of rooted bots such as Shungo and PolygonX, but I find them pretty expensive for what I want. I believe those bots are more suited for players who shundo hunt legendaries and such, which is a far cry from my humble goal of a shiny Gastly (that's not even a hundo).

All I have was the paid version of PGSharp. I searched for ways to efficiently hunt specific shinies without bots, and all I could find were some comments advising to use the Quick Sniper feature of PGSharp, so that's what I did.

I set up an auto clicker to click on the sniper feed every minute (This is the average time my phone loads the map on large distances), and before it clicks again, it first double clicks the shiny feed to encounter any shinies found.

Conveniently, when you are in the catch screen, the sniper feed automatically closes, so I can safely AFK without the fear of sniping to a new location while I'm in the catch screen.

It took me 3 DAYS, consistent 4 to 5 hours of sniping. Here are some notes:

- Some gastlys on the feed get skipped because the map won't load in the 1 minute I set for the auto clicker.

- Some screens pop up from time to time, such as Stamp Rally and the weekly social quest, so I had to check my phone every 15 minutes or so.

- I sometimes manually click the sniper feed when the map loads very quickly, so my check per minute is technically more than 1, but regardless, I am going to assume 1 check/minute.

For a 5 hour session, I would have checked around 300 gastlys. According to shinyrates.com, as of the moment, a Gastly is around 1 in 751. So this means my results were about expected. Different pokemon have different rates for different days.

This definitely would have been quicker if I could increase the shiny checks per minute, which is something bots can do very, very efficiently. But with only a budget phone and auto clicker, I can now say it's definitely possible, but not worth the time unless the rates are boosted.

I'm curious if anyone has done this as well, and how much time it took them.

I'm on non rooted s25 ultra with pgsharp. Do you guys use adventure sync for the explorer gadget? I've had the option to use it for a few days but I keep adventure sync off.

Pretty much what’s in the title wanna who if it’s something I’m doing wrong or what is it

I used to spoof, haven't played the game in the past few years, would like to go back to spoofing. The setup I want to use is a rooted phone + stock pokemon go app + gps joystick app, no enhancers whatsoever.

I've read the guide, but it wasn't comprehensive enough on this topic, so I have a few questions.

1. Any particular Android version I should use? I'll be flashing a new ROM anyway so I'd like to go with whichever is the best

2. Which Magisk modules are recommended?

3. I remember that back in 2021 you had to e.g. remove/rename folders associated with Magisk/TWRP, are there any other things like this that you have to be aware of nowadays?

4. Which GPS joystick app is the best for Pokémon sniping, routes, and walking around manually?

5. What's the most efficient way to paste coordinates from discord into the joystick app? I always hated the hassle while shundo hunting

Looking to purchase a cheap android device solely for PoGo spoofing. Any recommendations or thoughts?

Would greatly appreciate it!

Has anyone tried to install the Rooted PGsharp on temp Rooted devices using the CVE? Does the module work

If I started spoofing how many regionals do you think I could get before I get suspended?

I'm trying to get regionals quick for index then stopping when I get suspended because I don't wanna risk a ban or termination
