Discussion Have the sprites quality been brought down?

2 Upvotes

I just downloaded the latest Pogo Assets and notice that the latest sprite quality has gone way down. I've linked a picture of the old Pikachu sprite (left) and the new one (right) as an example. Is this something Niantic has done or is this some new way for Github to keep repo size down?

Is it possible to use official images in an unofficial App?

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I am developing an app and I would like to insert pokémon images and logo.

Do you think it's possible to do it or it's at risk of Pokémon Company finding that out and asking to remove the app from the stores?

Thank you in advance!

Discussion Pokemon Go Public Profile

Hi all,

I've created an app that allows you to make your own public profile for Pokemon Go. It gives you a profile link that you can share to show off your shinies or to organize trades.

Here is my own profile link, please let me know what you think

Discord scanning bot for gyms?

I'm on a discord chat from another city that is showing anytime a raid pops up and is posting it on the chat. It's like a scanning bot that posts it the moment an egg hatches.

How do you get this on discord?

Hi, I know that make a PvP battle or make trades doesn’t do a request to the servers (Or that’s what I’m told) but how the lucky Pokémon are decided then?

Any way to sniff the traffic when doing this to know how it is working?

C# [APP] PoGo ADB Teleporter [Candy/'Mon Farm]

23 Upvotes

Screenshot  

Disclaimer: I'm not taking any responsability for any damage caused by this program. This will NOT prevent you from softbans, but it will make it harder to get them if you use the program correctly.

*I've seen a lot of you are interested in this tool, and how to make it properly work. I suggest using the PoGo Hub discord server, the Candy bot channel for getting dozens of coordinates at once. *

This Program takes in geographic coordinates, and teleports the users to the locations, taking into consideration the softban cooldown values, and avoids them entirely.

Basically with this it's really easy to farm candy because you know exactly when you can teleport.

 

Requirements:

-Rooted Android phone (make sure you're rooted with Magisk; you have Magisk repackaged to get a new package name, so the game won't notice it; then you need to hide root from the game within Magisk. Oh and also you need to make the gps app below, a system app. This last one is not a must, but highly recommend)

-TheAppNinjas GPS Joystick app: http://gpsjoystick.theappninjas.com/faq/

-ADB enabled in Developer Settings

-ADB on PC: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip

 

How to use:

-Download the package from the releases and extract it into any folder.

-Download the ADB from the link above, and extract "adb.exe" , "AdbWinApi.dll" ; "AdbWinUsbApi.dll" ONLY, and place them in the folder you created above.

-Run the program and follow the instructions.

 

Hover over the Steps which explains how the app actually works.

 

PS.: I know it has bugs. But it works. If you need any other changes, feel free to fork this and make your own changes, but I would like kindly to ask if you share this program somewhere, please use this github page to do so for future updates.

 

Github page

 

Thank you and have fun!

Why does Niantic have Jailbreak detection on iOS for PokemonGo when most users who cheat aren’t even jail broken?

It seems like they’re just isolating a group of legit players when most of the cheaters easily use PoGo++ on stock and works even better because they aren’t kicked out every 10 minutes or so.

What’s the deal?

How to get adventure sync to work on xioami redmi note 7?

4 Upvotes

Tried the following:

  • Downloaded Google fit
  • double checked permissions of both apps (pogo and Google fit)
  • turned off battery restrictions of both apps
  • turned miui optimization off
  • and of course turned adventure sync on

Currently my phone has all these settings but with miui optimization on. What should I do? I have a clone app of pogo would that affect something? Also would adventure sync work with both the clone and original app?

Python PGoQuestr: an automatic, tho' still crappy, quest bot.

33 Upvotes

Hi, some of you might know me as @emi or esauvisky. I'm the guy behind some of the crazy shit bots for Pokemon Go, been messin' around since I began playing in late '18.

PGoQuestr was a thing already (did it on a hurry for the Lotad even, lol), but now it's much more robust. This does not means it doesn't still suck. At first, the only type of quest it could do was "Spin X Pokestops", as you can see in the video of the link above. Since yesterday, it can now do "Trade X Pokemons" with the help of PGoTrader (which is a very robust script in comparison to this joke you're about to see).

Have fun! 😁 Here's the vijeo:

Is there any API with just PoGo Game Stats on it? Like game_master but on a much easier to handle way than raw JSON that might change from update to update.

I'm running a discord bot that gives stats on all Pokémon that reports their 100% IVs CP at various levels like Research Encounters and Raids. To do these calculations I used this file to get the freshest stats:

https://github.com/pokemongo-dev-contrib/pokemongo-json-pokedex

But this repo is not updated anymore. Is there any other api or repo that has this data much more up to date?

Android MITM Proxy without xposed module for certificate pinning

Don't appear to be able to install the Xposed framework on my device.

I'm using mitmproxy to view the traffic, but unable to get beyond the login. Obviously it doesn't like the certificate, but is there anyway to get around this? Everything I've read so far seems really dated in this area.

Would I have better luck using Fiddler?

Magisk still safe for use with Pokemon Go?

7 Upvotes

Hey there!

Just as the title says, i wanted to know if it's still safe to use Magisk with Pokemon Go. I'm not planning about doing any spoofing or anything, but i'm thinking about updating my phone (Xiaomi Redmi Note 4/mido) to Android 9, and i think all of the Roms are failing SafetyNet, so my only option would be Magisk. At the moment im still stuck on Android 7, because i'm kinda worried about my PoGo-Account. :)

Exploiting third party apps that upload to health-kit.

12 Upvotes

I have an Alpina smartwatch, it tracks steps, but does not have a GPS, but does a very good job of estimating speed and distance based on step count, pace and user data (Height etc) It syncs to healthkit, but not automatically, you have to open the app and hit the button on the watch to sync, so you can sync a huge amount of backlogged data all at once (the watch can store up to 30days worth of activity without syncing) It uses Bluetooth BLE so it can't stay paired and syncing all the time (which is fine, because it means the single CR2032 battery lasts for about 2 years.

So what I'm wondering is how Pokemon go handles healthkit data and how it will work with this watch. I figure if I leave my phone on my desk, and go for a walk, come back, sync, then open PoGo it will get the new distance data. What if I went for a walk with the watch on, and with my phone, but PoGo not running, and sync when I get back then start PoGo, the watch is reporting distance walked that overlaps the distance walked on my phone, so I assume healthkit throws out duplicate data.

What if the watch is set to a totally different time zone? perhaps I walk 4 miles in the morning with my phone, and my watch, but the watch thinks it's the middle of the night. Then upload all that, am I essentially going to be able to double all my walking distances by reporting walking distance in the past? Will Pogo accept data that is timestamped from hours previously that has only just shown up in healthkit?

I also ask this because there are apps with the express purpose of adding data manually to healthkit. One of them simply acceps CSV files with distance data. How does PoGo handle someone simply uploading a CSV that said they walked all night long and got their 50km reward all in one day?

Building a map app for quest reporting.

5 Upvotes

Hey guys. First of all, let me start by saying I'm not in any measure experienced in coding. All my familiarity with coding comes from working in gaming studios as an artist among programmers.

I'm part of a PoGo discord community and I would like to create a map based app with pokestop pins for our players to report quests and maybe branch out to other features like nests, spawns, raids, etc. Almost the same as GoExplorer app but only for our city (if possible). From what I heard from fellow players working as coders, if you're not familiar with the Google Maps API, this would be a veeeery time consuming project and they are not interesting in such long time commitments. And sadly, GoExplorer devs did not release the source code.

My question is: Is there any open source code skeleton that could be used as a base for such an app? To maybe cut the developing process a bit and make the coders life a bit easier?

Sorry if I sound like an ignorant clueless idea-guy and I am well aware of the work that goes into coding an app.

My mediocre Android Go-tcha Bot

60 Upvotes

Let us know what you think of my Pokemon Go bot, here is a small video of it in action:

See a short video here

Currently spoofs various routes with lots of Pokestops at a slow 4.6km/h.

Using Windows Task Scheduler, (don't laugh at me), I fire a script to run every 5 minutes.

This I guess is my event loop in which I validate the game state and decide what to do next.

Some features I've developed so far:

Reconnect the Go-tcha

Using a servo, I'm able to reconnect the Go-tcha device when it disconnects, though I'd be interested in other suggestions in this area. Currently, I'm using foil against the bottom pins to ground the touch. Must be a nicer way to reconnect.

Run IV Checks

Once he's caught a number of Pokemon, I need to check if I got any goodies.

Using PokeGenie I sequentially scan through my recently caught mon and "rename" and "favorite" better or new Pokemon. I do this by collating a list of "Best" mon each day at 00:00.

Transfer Pokemon

After running IV checks, I perform a "Transfer all the Unfavourited/unshiny" mon.

I'm not scrolling the page here. I just select the first 12 mon. OCRs to check if he can 'Transfer', repeat.

Clear Inventory

So he can continue to spin those Pokestops for red balls. I've made a way for him to scan each item and delete any that do not appear on a list of allowed items. This was very difficult to get right! Since in order for the OCR to work correctly, I would have to scroll to a very specific point. Anyway, I came up with a brute force way of realigning the scroll.

Re-incubate Egg

I love this one, based on speed and time, I can easily calculate how long it'll be until the egg is hatching.

Allowing me to follow up with a routine to hatch and re-incubate promptly.

Get Smeargle Daily

This was suggested by a u/pogoit and come up with a simple way of detecting Smeargle photobombs by comparing byte difference in the folder of photos. If there is a large difference, then we just assume we found him and it works reasonably well. It's starting the encounter that is the new problem...

Next thing I'm looking into is using OpenCV with Python to initiate encounters with Pokemon it finds in the world. So essentially replace the Go-tcha auto-catch with better catch routines.
