More PokéStops and Gyms Coming to India and Indonesia - Discussion

The 4 stops. The gym you can see from the coordinate also, it is pretty close.

I know.. But to what end? We already have a shortage of power stops as it is… I’m not gonna risk public outrage.

I agree but I would probably report it as soon as I get the chance because these are not even usable safely and I know some hardcore players which would literally risk their lives for a Gmax gengar or a Dmax legendary.

@PkmnTrainerJ I have a question, when will we get the new ones after these are removed?

Then I will report them as soon as we get new… Or old ones back. I still want to do max monday runs with my community.

Depends on whether there’s any other imports in the area I suppose.

I understand @Rhinos998 not wanting to report, but for me personally, I don’t have a strong affiliation to one game that uses Wayfarer over another, so I’m good in trying to make sure the map is accurate and that nobody does something stupid at a Power Spot. I’m sure we can all recall early stories in both Pokémon GO and Ingress of players taking risks just for a game.

I am all up for reporting if it has safety risks, I have also mentioned in one of the above replies that I know some people that put their lives in risk for some dmax or gmax pokemons.

Yes, sorry I tagged the wrong person. Meant to reply to you and tag Rhinos which I’ve now updated

It’s okay, BTW if I already have other wayspots in a cell with a pokestop/Gym when will the new power spot be added?

All this feedback about specific places and the outcome is really helpful. Especially about how many and tge kind of locations that are popping up.

:people_hugging: to those whose situation is not good.

Update : now the falinks at the church disappeared… :sweat_smile: Whats going on?

The system still updating perhaps? fingers crossed

I see a few active Power Spots in your active play area. “FINVASIA”, “LynHill Softwares (OPC) Private Limited”, “Vismaad Mediatech Private Limited”, “WHMCS Global Services | WHMCS Development Company USA, UK, India”, “Web Monde”, “Digi Rush Solutions” to name a few.

Thanks for replying but all of these are at least 5kms+ away lol. It’s an IT office area and I checked and yes it’s indeed populated with a lot of spots.

Also I do wonder how many of these private offices would like random crowd for Pokemon in front of them but anyway very minor point lol.

Anyway since I was looking I also I just checked my whole city and to be fair to Niantic resurgence has happened but in approx. 80% of city. I am not checking how many of these are eligible or not lol.

That said I cannot figure out any pattern for left out spots/neighborhood. I can only speculate and I hope I am wrong but it seems like wayfaring(the thing Niantic wants you to do lol) coupled with this update in 2023 is to blame. I am thinking I already had 50+ Pokestop in my view maybe if they were like only 30 I would have a lot of wayspotsleft for the double dip that has happened ((some wayspots → Powerstop)*2 → Pokestop).

Edit: I’ll add more context I just looked more closely where can I possibly and realistically go regularly w/o vehicle and ignoring safety on road(this is not a slight at Niantic everyone in India does this). The best option I have is 2 Powerspots(~1 km) and then it’s minimum 2km-3km(so x2 journey from home to spots.) for 2 different places with (2+1)/(2+1) spots respectively.

Previously I went around and could comfortably hit 6/9 spots(7 if I am feeling spicy lol) in 3.5 km round.

Also apologies for so many brackets and possibly cryptic writing. :folded_hands:

These dont need to meet wayfarer criteria as imports, and they dont meet removal criteria so they are not “invalid”.

You have multiple pokestops in lvl 17 cells?

There are pictures higher up in this thread that appear to show multiple POI in L17 cells, along with people saying this has happened.

Oh, I didn’t know that thanks for the info

Yes, and i provided pictures as well as coordinates. You can check..

So just confirming this is it right? Can I stop coming here everyday hoping to see a magical update? Seems like they’ve done all they possibly can.


This is the gym + pokestop picture, I remembered to take a screenshot today..
