If you use one of these, your account might be softbanned or perma-banned, especially if you use a service that requires a Pokemon Go login to work.ĭo Any Alternative Scanners & Maps Still Work?įastPokeMap is working on getting back online so trainers can start using the service again. It’s worth bearing in mind that any third-party app that accesses Niantic’s servers is likely breaking TOS. I get that in new areas some Pokemon are impossible to find without it, but damn. Not even close too spoofing, but I’ve heard some people say they had caught 5 Snorlax’s in one night on the app, which just gives you such an unfair advantage in gyms.

They said that third-party maps and scanners are a form of cheating, so they don’t feel bad that the services no longer work. This company is just terrible imo.īut in the other threads, other trainers said they feel differently about the whole thing. I guess I’m done then, i am not going to mindlessly walk around looking for Pokemon that are on my sightings. Without FastPokeMap I wouldn’t have been playing this game as long as I have. The new Recaptcha security feature has shut down some players’ favorite maps and scanners. Now Niantic has disabled access through a new forced security update that’s affecting almost all third-party scanners. This took a lot of apps down for a while, but they were just starting to restore service when a new problem emerged. Problems with these apps and web maps first started cropping up when FastPokeMap developers disabled other scanners’ access to its API because the developers said it was draining their servers. Pokemon Go players sometimes used third-party trackers and scanners, like FastPokeMap, to locate nearby Pokemon. Does anything still work? And do any of the options not violate TOS?Īll Scanners & Maps That Accessed Niantic’s Servers Are Down A lot of other scanners and maps went down with it, including Quickmap, PokeAlert, OpenPokeMap, PokeEye, ScanGo, and more. Land's End didn't impress me (in terms of spawns - the view is incredible, though!) and Ocean Beach just doesn't have a lot going on so I wouldn't go there explicitly for mons.FastPokeMap, a favorite Pokemon Go scanner, has been broken after the most recent Pokemon Go security update. If you do end up in the East Bay, Lake Merritt in Oakland is nice to walk around and spawns a few Dratini an hour. SLM is also supposed to be great but it's the only "hotspot" I haven't yet made it to. And since you'll be in downtown SF it's probably not worth a separate trip. That said, it's a pretty big area so I wouldn't go there expecting to catch any rares just wandering around. The scene down there tends to be a lot of players driving around snagging rares off Twitter feeds - as s0measnguy said it's a desert biome and there are many Blissey/Chansey spawns every day (I acquired exactly 1000 Chansey candies during the event). It's a must-see.Īs far as the South Bay goes - there is a very dedicated community in San Jose with an active Discord channel.
Golden Gate Park is a huge nest (currently Misdreavus) and is absolutely gorgeous, so I'd definitely recommend a visit whether or not you plan on playing PoGo there. Be aware that the Embarcadero is a tourist hotspot and is usually insanely crowded on weekends, especially on nice days. Dratini are pretty common (1-2 per hour) and there is a local map,, if that's your thing.
The aforementioned Embarcadero strip (thanks GGTWNYC) extends past Ghirardelli Square all the way West to Fort Mason and is a surefire way to pick up water biome spawns. It's nothing particularly special, but rares will definitely spawn downtown (I heard there was a local T-tar this past weekend and I also caught an Aerodactyl on a visit yesterday). SF itself sees a lot of water/grass type spawns along with the usual commons. Longtime Bay Area resident - I lived in NYC for a while and recently relocated back to the Palo Alto area so I can definitely speak to the spawns in the SF region.
