LEVEL 80 has been ACHIEVED! HUGE thanks to all my Pokemon friends for the raids, trades, and being partners on the grind!

I’d love to get an actual response from @ScopelyExplore about the obscene amount of bots and spoofers popping up daily.
I wish @ScopelyExplore took reports of cheating, spoofing, and bots seriously. The entire southern Denver area, well into the front range, is overrun with bot accounts. Trainers can’t stay in gyms for more than a few minutes. It’s driving so many new players away from #PokemonGo

Thrilled that this is a limited time event that I can’t play at all during. Looks like I’m striking out on Max Monday too. Awesome. @ScopelyExplore #PokemonGO

I tried to have a conversation with one of the guys running these bot farms. He threatened me and my kids. Reported to @ScopelyExplore. Again, no response. Exactly how far do these cheaters have to go before Scopley will step in? How many YEARS will they let this go on?

We need Scopely to take a hard stand against bots and spoofers. Capcha? Better verification? Something. Anything. These handful of trainers running thousands of accounts are pushing legit players away by the dozens. More even. Scopley needs to take action.

Hey @ScopelyExplore where did the Lego Pikachu raids go? Weren’t they supposed to run until 9/30? #pokemongo

Remember when #PokemonGO events used to actually have boosted shiny rates that were actually boosted? Did Scopely forget to actually boost anything? 🤔

WAIT. Did @ScopelyExplore @PokemonGoApp REALLY just postpone a major event and NOT post anything about it on social media? Half my feed is people leaving for it, half is sharing a cancellation link. Gotta do a WAYYYYY better job communicating. #PokemonGo

4 years in a row in Los Angeles? I miss when these big events changed host cities more often. The whole core concept of exploring your world isn’t really being fulfilled by going to the same place over and over.
Trainers, get ready to say “Alola!” to #PokemonGOTour2027! 🤩 🗓️Mark your calendars for these two in-person #PokemonGO Tour events: 🌏 Kaohsiung and Los Angeles: February 19–21 And don’t forget the global celebration: 🌍 Global: February 27–28 Stay tuned for more information! pokemongo.com/news/save-the-…

Hey @SiriusXMTurbo you’re running two tracks on top of each other

So last night’s spotlight hour was the BEST spotlight hour EVER? Putting a new costume from an event in spotlight hour is a great idea, and I hope they do it more often! #PokemonGo

REALLY disappointed that @portilloshotdog has stopped their planned expansion into Colorado. The market here is primed and ready for Chicago style food, with tens of thousands of transplants. Littleton was a PREMIERE location, with a Costco, Scheel’s, and In-N-Out. 😭😭😭😭

Hey @ScopelyExplore isn’t there supposed to be a 5k egg event going on right now? 🤔 #pokemongo

This is disgraceful. The event was down for almost two hours. People in my community lost many more than 2 raid passes, with some losing multiple remote raid passes too. The whole community gave up and went home. Day 1 completely shot. @ScopelyExplore MUST do better.
Trainers, we are investigating a short network disruption that affected raids in the Americas. As a token of our appreciation, all Trainers will receive up to two additional free Raid Passes during Day 2 of Pokémon GO Fest 2026: Mega Finale. Thank you for your patience.

Anyone else’s @PokemonGoApp raids broken?! We can’t do any charge moves, party, power or anything. Wasted three raid passes now. #pokemongo #pokemomgomegafinale

The $15 event ticket is OUTRAGEOUS. No additional daily raid passes. No bottle cap. Broken shiny boost. Not worth it in the slightest.
It's WILD paying this much for a FINALE and the shiny rate is MUCH worse than Community Day, a FREE event. Come on @scopely ... would it be really that BAD to let trainers enjoy an event ... feel like they won, not got ripped off 🙄 #PokemonGO
