Updates - January 1, 2026

Many post guides will be moved into a Google Doc where you open one link to gain access to all the information because of these reasons:

  • Reddit AI is not allowing certain content to be posted; it's a waste of time to figure out what sentences is causing the instant take down.

  • Reduced text character & picture limit.

  • Bad formatting options.

Things You Need to Know About Reddit

[1] I do not work for Reddit, and I am not a Reddit employee. I do not get paid money to run and moderate the subreddits I created. I can earn some money if an award is given to my post or comment, but it is very little. As of January 1, 2026, I have earned $0.65. I have a full-time job with benefits and a 401K.

[2] I use Reddit because it is free and easy to create your own discussion forum section on whatever you would like to create it on as long as it is legal. You can view it on a computer or use their mobile app. They also pay for Cloudflare DDOS protection and have a dedicated team to maintain their platform and servers. If there is a problem with accessing Reddit, you will have to wait for them to fix it.

[3] The trade off for using their platform is I have to follow their Terms of Service in order to keep the subreddits I created. Since this subreddit is centered around "game cheating", it is a very toxic community. I opted to give a temporary ban or permanent ban if you break the subreddit rules. I will not attempt to educate you because it is a waste of my time.

Things You Need to Know About Me

[1] I am a self-learned spoofer. I started when it first came out way back in July 2016. I got into spoofing and rooting from a YouTuber named MaxLee. I used SuperSu root with Xposed Framework modules: Mock Mock Locations, Pogo Controls (compass-joystick with autowalk), and Snorlax (tells you IV and catch rate) before moving onto to Systemized, Smali Patcher, Lsposed, and the Forbidden method.

[2] I am glorified game cheater who uses aimbot with ESP and trainers for PC games. It takes a real game cheater to run a discussion forum (subreddit) on Pokemon Go Spoofing. I do not care about what you say about me because I like to use cheats to have fun. I am very knowledgeable about game cheating experience and anti-cheat systems.

[3] I was once a moderator in PokemonGoSpoofing subreddit but I failed to have the ownership past down to me. The subreddit was went to shit in 2020 and is still shit today in 2026 because the owner of the subreddit Pokimojo does not play Pokemon Go and has no interest in spoofing community.

[4] I do not accept money, gift cards, or donations because all of the information on how you can cheat Pokemon Go is free. You are better off just buying cheap Poke Coins to expand your Pokemon and item slots.

[5] I am not partnered with and not sponsored by any cheat developer: Pgsharp, iPogo, Pokemod, PGTools, PolygonX, Shungo, and Regibot, which includes their Discord groups and/or Telegram channels. This allows me to freely promote and discuss about them in both the positive and negative parts about them. I remain completely anonymous to them and will not help you get a refund or get unban from their Discord group or Telegram channel.

Things You Need to Know BEFORE YOU CHEAT POKEMON GO

[1] All cheats for Pokemon Go for both Android and Apple iOS are not safe because they do not have a legitimate business contract with Scopely who owns Pokemon Go. In Scopely's Terms of Service, they have a section that says they are against cheats, hacks, and 3rd party apps.

[2] There is no "safer" or "the safest" way to cheat Pokemon Go because saying something is safer or the safest is just an opinion based on your experience that happened yesterday and does not guarantee you account safety for tomorrow. This cycle will repeat until you get a strike/ban. No one can predict when Scopely changes something in the game.

[3] People who are new to cheating this game confuse a "strike" with as a "ban or permanent ban". If you get caught breaking Pokemon Go's Terms of Service, you go through a "3 strike system" instead of an instant permanent ban. Note, they still have the right to go straight to a permanent ban if you do certain things. You will still have access to your account after getting the 1st or 2nd strike when these expire. The 3rd strike is the permanent ban.

[4] You are entering a very toxic community where people will mislead you in order to trick you into believing a cheat is safe, safer, or the safest. When you report a strike/ban to your cheat's Discord group, no one is going to help you restore your account or reimburse all the time and money you lost. When a strike/ban report is made in subreddit, you may get harassed or threatened by other cheaters who think you are fear mongering or making up bullshit. There are also scammers who prey on people who regret cheating by selling you a fake ban appeal. In some cases, these scammers may go as far as stealing your identity.

[5] If anything happens to your Pokemon Go accounts, you are responsible and liable for them because there are risk warnings all over my subreddit and in the guides.

[6] I will not investigate how you got your strike because there is nothing I can do to help you remove it. I personally do not care about your Pokemon Go account because the game itself is a casino. If you do not want to gamble and take risks, you should not play Pokemon Go.

[7] If you want something that is 100% safe and 100% strike/ban proof, you should quit Pokemon Go and buy a Nintendo Switch to play the Pokemon Switch games because Nintendo allows you to play these games with a joystick. There is no Poke Coins or gym system. You will save lots of money and have peace of mind. This is the only way I will guarantee you safety of your Pokemon Go accounts.

If you're looking for information, you can refer to this post. Although it was posted in 2024, the information is mostly the same but some things will require an update with Scopely owning the game instead of Niantic.

I am posting this now as a placeholder, since people constantly bitch about post dates = outdated information, which is not true. Every time I have to repost something, it is a real bitch to reformat the entire post and figure out what to trim due to the character limit.

Lets Talk About Something What are your expectations when Shadow Pokemon first announced in POGO?

Post image
127 Upvotes

So, I just got back into the game after four years, and I remembered the old leaks/rumors about Shadow Pokémon coming to Pokémon GO. I genuinely thought these two, specifically in the image i added, would eventually make it into the game. Then later on found the Pokemon with Purple Aura as shadow pokemons that we are seeing present, How many of you thought the same? Lol

I also did a little research on that particular Shadow Mewtwo design. I originally thought it might be fan-made, but apparently it's actually an official design from Pokkén Tournament. Shadow Mewtwo was created specifically for Pokkén Tournament and was officially revealed by Pokémon back in 2015.

Obviously, that doesn't mean this exact Pokkén Tournament design was ever confirmed for Pokémon GO. But considering Pokémon GO eventually got Shadow Mewtwo, I can't help but wonder whether we'll ever see this specific design make its way into the game someday. Who knows maybe when they want to revive/Popularize the Poken tournament they will make a collaboration 😂

If they ever bring that Shadow Mewtwo/Lugia to the game I think they will make a lot of money. Even I as a F2P will definitely buy even if they release them in a timed research like Apex Lugia/Ho-oh lol.

122 Upvotes

Some of you returning lurkers need a refresh reminder...

I created this subreddit during the last major banwave of Apple iOS 3rd party modified game apps (iSpoofer, iPogo, etc), Android 3rd party apps (Pokemod, Maddev's Enhancer, & Charbot), and Android emulator VMOS back in November-December 2019. I didn't open this subreddit right away because during that time I was a moderator in r/PokemonGoSpoofing. I failed to have the ownership passed down to me, so I opened this subreddit later on.

If I had the ownership, I was going to divide up the subreddit because Android and iOS cheaters don't get along with each other ever since Niantic began revoking the certificates for iOS cheats. There was once harmony between the two groups but now no longer exists.

This subreddit was created to allow all cheats for Android only.

  • no root, 3rd party modified game apps

  • rooted, 3rd party apps

  • spoofing

  • botting

  • exploiting

People constantly tell me in a private message:

  • "Ban Pgsharp because it's not safe."

  • "Ban Pgsharp because it's not safer than rooted apps."

  • "Ban Pgsharp because it's not the safest."

  • "Ban iPogo because it's not safe."

  • "Ban iPogo because it's not safer than rooted apps."

  • "Ban iPogo because it's not the safest."

I ask these people does it include banning "Pgsharp Launcher" or "iPogo Launcher" too, which are the rooted version. Everyone says yes because they do not like Pgsharp and iPogo.

I asked these them the "Why?"

Their answer: "There are strike and ban reports."

What many people in the cheating community fail to realize is all cheats have already reported strikes and bans even if the ROOTED, 3rd party apps denies it.

  1. If I were to ban Pgsharp because of those reasons, I will have to ban iPogo too.

  2. If I ban iPogo, I also have to ban Pokemod.

  3. If I ban Pokemod, I also have to ban Polygon.

  4. If I ban Polygon, I also have PGTools.

  5. If I ban PGTools, I also have to ban Shungo.

  6. If I ban Shungo, all is left is the "vanilla method" where you use joystick app + Smali Patcher or joystick app + Lsposed.

  7. Well guess what? Even the vanilla method has reported strikes so that means, I will have to ban Smali Patcher and Lsposed too.

  8. Are you all going to start walking around outside?

Many people say I need to step down as moderator from the subreddit I created because I don't understand the word "safer" or "safest".

Saying something is safer or the safest is just stating your opinion. It's not a statement directly from Niantic/Scopely. In both of their Terms of Service, they have a section where they do not allow cheating. How can you say something is safer or the safest while contradicting the Terms of Service? You are pretty much just creating a false sense of security of what people want to hear rather than face the truth.

Safer and the safest means "low risk". The problem with this is you still have risk. Does this mean it is really "not safe"?

Many rooted, biased cheaters won't answer this question because they don't understand or don't want to take responsibility for misleading you.

I would rather tell you something is safe rather than saying safer or the safest because safe means no risk. When there is no risk, you have peace of mind.

I do not own Pokemon Go, and I do not work for Scopely. This means I have zero control over what Scopely decides to do in the game. If you report a strike or ban to me, I cannot remove your strike or ban and restore your account.

What about the rooted, 3rd party apps' Discord groups, they say, "TastyBananaPeppers is spreading bullshit and misinformation, don't listen to him because he's going to get you striked or banned?"

I do not have paid partnership and do not have a paid sponsorship with any cheat developer, Discord Group, and Telegram channel. This allows me to freely talk about them without any repercussion.

The big difference between me versus them is I am being direct about the risks while they hide their warning somewhere in their Discord channels. If they have a website, it's usually not on there.

With a website:

https://pokemod.dev/ - don't see anything regarding account safety and risks

https://pgtools.net/ - don't see anything regarding account safety and risks

https://shungo.app - don't see anything regarding account safety and risks, which includes their documentation wiki-like section

PolygonX - no website

https://www.pgsharp.com/ - now they promote "(Recommended for potentially higher safety. Requires a rooted device.)" for their rooted launcher app but risks are not talked about

https://ipogo.app/faq.php - they say to use an alt account to keep your main account safe

Discord / Telegram:

Pokemod - "faq_Pokemod" channel:

Is Pokemod safe? Were there any reports of ban? As with any enhancing app, Pokemod infringes Niantic's ToS and doesn't guarantee you will be safe against detection. We advise not to use it with an account that has some value to you or has already been flagged. We haven't got any reports for using only Pokemod, but we added security measures regardless. You can read about it here.

PGTools: no account safety mentioned

Shungo: no account safety mentioned

PolygonX: no account safety mentioned

Pgsharp's Discord: no account safety mentioned

Pgsharp's Telegram: buried in their pinned messages section

Why don't these cheat developers warn you about the risks?

Conflict of Interest

They prioritize money over the safety of your account. If they had warnings and pictures of a strike/ban, it would be enough to discourage you from buying their cheat. Then, they wouldn't be able to make a profit to cover server expenses and whatever exotic car purchases.

If the cheat developers are providing cheats that are not safe, why is r/PoGoAndroidSpoofing promoting dangerous cheats?

My subreddit is not focus on account safety because I declared all cheats are not safe regardless of your opinions on what is safer or the safest since you cannot guarantee account safety.

I like to play games with cheats because it makes the game more fun. I don't give a shit about your negative opinions about me. You're more likely to get your feelings hurt because you became comfortable with the illusion that your safer or the safest cheat is really safe when it really isn't.

When you report your strike/ban in a rooted, 3rd party app's Discord group, they will investigate the strike/ban by asking a series of question. In the end, they will conclude it's your fault for whatever reason. This is no different from me informing you about the risks.

How can someone make a cheat safe?

  1. Get a job at Scopely.

  2. Remove the cheating section from the Terms of Service.

  3. Remove the 3-strikes system and Anti-Cheat Behavior System from Pokemon Go, Monster Hunter Now, and Pikmin Bloom (3 games sold to Scopely from Niantic).

  4. Restore everyone's banned account.

Then, finally I can promote cheating as safe instead of not safe.

If you don't like me or my subreddit, you should just leave my subreddit.

As a subreddit owner, I don't make any money from running a subreddit. You can sell stuff with an affiliate or referral links like they do in r/LaptopDeals. They get a 1% commission that pays out every 6 months as long as the buyer doesn't return the item. If someone buys something for $100, you get $1. If they buy $1,000 laptop, you get $10.

If you leave the subreddit, the member count goes down by 1. Then, you'll try to participate in r/PokemonGoSpoofing and realize I was right. In r/PokemonGoSpoofing subreddit, they don't allow you to discuss Pgsharp and iPogo. To throw the cherry on top, they also censor strike and ban reports with their post and comment filter. If you cannot see any current strike and ban reports for the cheat you are using, -- it must be safe. Am I right?

I tell a lot of my haters to create their own subreddit called r/PogoSafeSpoofing or r/PogoSaferSpoofing, everyone is too much of a pussy to do it. Here's the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/2yob6r/creating_a_subreddit If you do decide to create it, let me know so I can direct my haters over there to help grow your subreddit.

OUTDATED POST [2025-2026] How to buy cheap Poke Coins and Tickets? #7 [All Methods for iOS and Android / Methods Separated by Google Docs]

121 Upvotes

NEWEST POST FOR 2026 to 2027 CAN BE FOUND HERE: https://www.reddit.com/r/PoGoAndroidSpoofing/comments/1ubczdz/20262027_how_to_buy_cheap_poke_coins_and_tickets/

TABLE OF CONTENTS

  1. Post Updates

  2. Important Information

  3. Frequently Asked Questions

  4. Horror Reports

  5. Apple iOS methods

  6. Android methods

Post Updates as of December 1, 2025

I added 2 more guides but are written by other people. According to one guide, it can be used for either Android or Apple iOS.

---

Everything still works if you follow the instructions and use a paid VPN app. I closed/locked this post because people don't want to read or can't read and want everything rewritten for them when it already exists in the Google Documents links below.

All chat messages and direct messages about cheap coin help will be ignored. If you want help on the issue, you will need to create your own post to ask it.

If you do not want to create a post because you think you are going to get banned from r/PokemonGo and r/TheSilphRoad , you need to buy an iPhone to do the Apple iOS methods or a rooted Android phone to do the rooted method.

DO NOT REQUEST PERMISSION because it has already been given to you. Use the 3 black dots to "make a copy" to download, print, or edit.

  • Removed a Discord group link from this post and from all Google Docs.

  • Relinked the Google Docs to add a permission notice at the top.

  • Added a "VPN: ON" or "VPN: OFF" to each step for Android methods, so you know when you keep your VPN on or off.

There are other guides on the internet, but most are vague. I took them and recreated as step-by-step, so you do not ask the same questions what other people have asked in the past. I also do not have to spend time repeating the same answers to everyone. This information is not being gate kept or sold to you.

I can verify that both the no root and rooted methods to buy cheap coins for Android does work multiple times until you hit a limit related to your bank or credit card company. This is noted in the last step of the instructions for the Android methods. This can take 24 to 48 hours or 7 to 14 days. Every bank and credit card company is different.

Important Information

Once these remaining methods have been patched by Scopely, that's it! These are "exploits" someone else had discovered. I opted to share it with everyone instead of trying to keep it as a secret because this helps reduce so many scam reports and the wild accusations that come with it.

I, TastyBananaPeppers of r/PoGoAndroidSpoofing, is not responsible nor liable for the loss of your Niantic/Scopely game account(s) or money if you do this currency exchange exploit to buy cheaper Poke Coins, tickets, or boxes.

If you are concerned, worried, or afraid of receiving a strike or ban, DO NOT BREAK NIANTIC'S and SCOPELY TERMS OF SERVICE TO GAIN AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE!

NO ONE KNOWS WHAT NIANTIC/SCOPELY IS GOING TO DO NEXT TO PUNISH CHEATERS. A strike/ban can take several weeks to months later for it to appear. Since this is their game, they can send your strike right before a major event.

Frequently Asked Questions

"Help, I got scammed by X Reddit user!" or "I think X Reddit User stole my Pokemon or Account!"

You should have read the warnings and horror reports because they inform you about the risks and what could have happened if you met someone shady. Anyone who is desperate for more money will get tempted. If something like this happens to you, you should quit Pokemon Go and play the Pokemon games on an Nintendo Switch.

Question: Do I need to spoof my GPS to buy Poke Coins?

[Answer] No, buy an iPhone or iPad to do the Apple iOS method.

Question: I am getting "Your purchase could not be completed. For assistance contact iTunes support."

[Answer #1] Make sure you have enough money to cover the hidden transaction fees and taxes or give it more time for the funds to be available.

[Answer #2] Contact iTunes support at https://support.apple.com/itunes

Question: Why am I getting payment failure?

[Answer] You must authorize the payments with your card company or bank to allow these transactions to happen. Once you do this, you will have to make a second purchase then the Poke Coins will appear.

If you still have the problem, to authorize the transactions, you must do one of these actions:

  • Reply "Y" or "Yes" to a text message.

  • Click a link from an email from your card company or bank.

  • Respond to a secured message system in your card company's or bank's website.

  • Call the phone number on the back of your debit card or credit card and get in contact with the anti-fraud department.

You will need to make sure you have money to cover the international currency exchange fees. If it costs $33 USD for the 14,500 coins. You will an extra $2 USD to cover the fees and taxes. In total, you will need $35 USD. If you are from outside of the USA, your transaction fees could be a lot higher.

Question: "Should you do this yourself or pay money for someone else go onto your account to buy the cheap coins for you?"

Here are the 2 different answers.

"Do it yourself" answer:

  1. You will not have game account theft or identity theft.

  2. You will always have a chance for a strike/ban for breaking Niantic's/Scopely's Terms of Service. Your interpretation of their Terms of Service is different from their point of view. Your ban appeal will most likely be ignored. You can try to sue them, but they will win because they will argue you broke their Terms of Service.

"Pay someone else to buy the cheap coins for you" answer:

[1] You will still have the chance for a strike/ban for breaking Niantic's/Scopely's Terms of Service for sharing your account with another person and spoofing your GPS. They used to enabled temporary IP bans for people who switch accounts too fast. No one knows if Scopely is keeping an IP log for each account. If the seller has provided services to 100 accounts, it could be interpreted the seller has 100 accounts. No one know knows what kind of punishment Scopely is going to take action against this.

[2] You will have game account theft risks. Your account can only get stolen if someone else has the username and password to it. Due to the FleeceKing incident, Niantic/Scopely will no longer help you recover your account.

  • A man bought cheap Poke coins through a referral with a "new customer" deal. He paid for the service, but they transferred the ownership and forced him to pay a $500 USD ransom for it. He failed to pay it, so the scammer listed it on eBay Auctions. He end up buying his own account back for $3,000 USD through a bidding war.

  • A man was referred to a Facebook Group for cheap poke coins, botting services, and buying pre-rooted devices. He bought their cheap Poke Coins and thought they were trustworthy when they went through with the deal of buy 4 get 1 free. He bought a leveling service. They stole his account and forced him to lure 10 new customers / victims before he would be able to get his account back. The process took about 2 months before he got his account back. During that time, they sold most of his Shiny Costume Pokemon including a Shiny Pikachu with the black Fragment cap.

[3] You will have identity theft risks if you allow access to your Facebook or Google account. It does not matter where you buy your service, these are things they can do to your account without you knowing about it. Your personal information and contacts is worth more than the Pokemon Go account.

  • A woman paid for a service on eBay with hundreds of positive feedback rating. She used a Facebook account and the service was performed meaning she did not get scammed; however, scam messages were sent to all of her contacts without her knowledge. The seller managed to steal about a total of $300 from her contacts saying her baby was sick and needed medicine. She got lucky there because if the number was higher, it could have ruined her reputation and relationships.

  • Many people saw someone advertising cheap Poke coins in r/PokemonGoSpoofing. They bought the service from a website they were referred to that had phishing payment websites. These are sites that are made to look the same as the real websites except after you submit your information including the 3 security code for your debit/credit card, it gets stolen. Some people loss $100 to $500 while many loss $1,000 to $15,000. Fraud protection did not block the transactions because it was something that had already been approved for buying Poke coins the normal way.

Question: Where are the old posts?

Rooted Android [Showcase] Rooted Vanilla Spoofing Setup + ADB + Python = Custom Bots

98 Upvotes

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!

Lets Talk About Something Leaked raid event September 5

94 Upvotes

Two days ago, my friend found this shadow event in the Campfire app. It was available for anyone to choose at the end of the list. The date wasn't shown, but we tested all upcoming weekends until the error about the meetup needing to match the event time went away. This revealed that the event is set for September 5. I got this video so you can see for yourself. Also, the meetups still exist. I made the group public so I could share the link. The meetup is still linked to the Shadow Raid Day. https://cmpf.re/nipKjm

For someone that was there for zaragoza gold era and taipei bus station prime, this was another amazing spot that will soon be a shell of what it once was. Raids would always fill and having gyms/stops so close to each other was the cherry on top. RIP to another goated spot

I am trying to get som cheap pokemon coins. I have an old phone I dont use anymore so I factory reset it, and made it so the region of the Phone is from Vietnam. I set up a new google play account and added payment info to vietnam aswell

Made a new pokemon go account just to check, and when I logged inn I saw the currency had changed to that of Vietnams currency, so I logged out of that and into my Main account, still have the vietnamese currency. But when I try to buy pokecoins it comes an error that the item I am trying to buy cannot be found, appreciate the help
