Help me with this guyz. I am from India so I thought it might be helpful over here.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to get back into Pokémon GO, but I'm getting the message "There is no game account linked to this username....." I didn't delete my account and I can't log in via PTC or my Google account. Using a second account, I can no longer find my actual main account on my friends list. I contacted Pokémon GO support using the second account and received the following response: "After a careful review of your case, we have concluded that the account you are attempting to recover does not meet our criteria to proceed with the next steps of account recovery. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide any further assistance regarding this matter. Regrettably, we have no additional information to offer on this topic."

Hi there,

With the festival of lights coming up for India I would really appreciate it if somebody were to add me as a friend to invite me to the raid via joining or RSVPing. I'm trying to get better at actively pursuing regional costumes and I'm going to start here.

Please add me and when the time comes invite me to a raid

Thank you !

Pokémon GO players: how did you see the PokéStop scanning feature? (Short questions for a university paper)

Hi all. I’m a student, writing a paper. My case is the PokéStop / AR scanning feature in Pokémon GO, and I’d love to hear how players experienced it.

From 2020, Pokémon GO let players at level 20+ scan PokéStops with their phone camera in exchange for in-game rewards. Niantic later said these scans helped build its 3D map and a “Large Geospatial Model”. In 2025 Niantic sold its games to Scopely and spun off its mapping and AI side as Niantic Spatial. In December 2025 Niantic Spatial announced a partnership with Vantor, a company that works on positioning for drones and vehicles where GPS doesn’t work. Vantor’s customers include defence organisations.

In June 2026 several outlets reported on this. The details are disputed. Niantic Spatial says scans were one of several inputs to its models, that no scan data is shared with Vantor, and that players opted in under the terms of service. It’s unclear whether any specific system was trained on Pokémon GO scans.

I’m not trying to prove a point either way. I’m interested in how players understood the feature at the time and how they see it now.

Questions (answer any or all, short answers are great)

1. Roughly how long have you played Pokémon GO?
2. Did you use PokéStop scanning or AR mapping? About how often?
3. When you scanned, what did you think the scans were used for?
4. Did you feel the game explained who would use the scan data and for what?
5. How much did the rewards affect whether you scanned? Did it feel optional?
6. Had you heard about the reports above before this post? What do you make of them?
7. Niantic Spatial says players agreed to this use in the terms of service. Do you feel you agreed to it? Why or why not?
8. Has any of this changed how you play, or how you think about scanning?

How I’ll use your answers: I may quote short answers in my paper, without usernames, and only with your consent. If you’d rather I didn’t quote you, just say so in your comment. Feel free to DM me instead of commenting.

Thanks!

Hello all, just wondering if anyone has a Vancouver bg eevee. I originally played as a kid in 2017 and as a young adult got back into it this May. I’m from Vancouver and was so disappointed to learn city safari already came here. I don’t have many good pokemon but if anyone has an excess somehow or at least an extra, I’d love to trade!

I need player to play Pokemon go in veraval so please dm

Hi everyone!

I’ve recently started playing Pokémon GO and am currently at Level 35. As we all know, Pokémon GO is a community-driven game, and you miss out on a lot if you can’t attend local meetups.

Personally, I find it difficult to attend meetups regularly, which makes participating in raids quite challenging. So, I’m looking to connect with a few players who are in the same boat.

We can form a small group, start with 1-, 2-, and 3-star raids, help each other out, and gradually work our way up to tougher raids while catching some great Pokémon along the way!

I’m also happy to participate actively in remote raids and help out wherever possible.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, let’s connect, build a small community, and get started ASAP! 😄

Happy catching, trainers! 🎮⚡

Aiming to catch em All! Plus some good buddies along the way. Do hop in and add ✨️

I didn’t get a single Lake Guardian Max Battle yesterday. I’m from Maharashtra, India, and all the Max Battles I came across were regular ones featuring Pokémon like Sneasel, Bulbasaur, and others.
Did anyone else experience this, or were Lake Guardian Max Battles spawning normally in other parts of India? Just curious to know if this was a regional issue or if I somehow missed them.

Hi, I am almost new to pokemon go and I want to start participating in raids. I can participate remotely. Let me know if there are some groups which have members participating in raids on an active basis. BTW, I play from India.

I have been playing pokemon go for 2-3 months now. I don't have too many great Pokemon's as of now but want to grow eventually. I am open for remote raids etc etc. I don't know much about the game as of now as I have been playing solo. Recently I figured out what 3 star IV's pokemon are. Please feel free to add me as a friend. I recently got Lucky Trinket which I have no Idea of how to use.
