Adding Poke Stop
Ibanslayer-PGO
Posts: 2 ✭
Hello community new here and also been trying to add a new stop. But keep getting the error saying Piodescription. I've changed numerous things trying to help the business owner submit his card Shop to become a pokestop. It's a Pokémon Sports cardshop.
Here are screen shots of what I've typed. Can anyone help me out of what I'm doing wrong. Thank you in advance.

I would guess the problem word is "moon," which is good because that's not an essential part of the description.
I believe this could be eligible, but you will want to make sure the following things are fixed:
^ this.
Pokemon Go is not a free advertisement space. A hobby shop is an eligible subject, but that nomination - with that image and that description - is not. The overaggressive word filter has saved you from the frustration of rejection!
I'd add to the above, make your main picture a photo of the logo on the door. Don't include the window so you don't have to worry as much about reflections. Also, make sure your photo is level. Reviewers can be very picky about photos and might reject your current one because it's tilted.
I'm looking at this with fresh eyes, and to add to my earlier advice and that of the commenters above, I also recommend:
I thought about suggesting the actual store name as the title, but I was concerned some confused reviewers might reject it because "No game references in title or description". May be safer to submit with a generic title and edit after it gets accepted.
don't mention pokemon go in the description
I would reject it even without the mention of Pokémon Go because it seems to be a blatant attempt by the business owner to get free advertising. It you want a Pokéstop at your business, pay for a sponsored shop.
If it's a great place to socialize, it doesn't matter if it's a business or not. Nowhere do the criteria say "reject businesses so they can give us money to buy stops". The nomination should focus on the socialize aspect and not sound like an ad, though.
