I know S2 cell and there is no other pokestops nor gyms in this level 17 S2 cell.

  • Have you checked “in person” using the map that shows up when you start a new nomination? The map we usually use is out of date since the sale to Scopely in May 2025.
  • Did you pin the nomination at the correct location, It’s possible that the location was moved during Review. You can also check this in the map described above.

・Yes. i’ve checked in person.

・There might be a discrepancy between the location I applied for and the actual location, but it’s only about 1 or 2 meters.

1 or 2 meters is basically not measurable by eye on satellite… peoples interpretation of 1 or 2 meters almost always ends up being more like 5-10 meters.

Well without an up to date map (we have been promised one “soon”) only staff could confirm the exact location.

Assuming the “error” was only 1 or 2 metres it could still have taken it over a cell line in to an occupied cell.

If you are willing to post the GPS Co-ords that you positioned it (shown in the email received when you 1st nominated) we could take a look with what we have now but I am 99% sure it will be to do with occupied cells, either something else appeared in the cell or yours was moved in to a neighbouring cell.

The GPS coordinates is
(34.716832, 135.007185)

I have just checked the (out of date) map.

If the co-ords are the ones you used when nominating they do fall in the middle of a (as of May 25) empty cell.

So unfortunately I am unable to confirm one way or another…

The co ordinates you give plus the photo all appear to add up. And that is within a cell.
When you check in person. What does the screen show?
Is yours there as an orange pin at that correct location?
Are there anything else on the screen?
