Pokémon go stop

I’ve got accepted for a restaurant I work at for a pokestop but it’s well well over 48 hours they said it would take to appear so any info on when it should pop up in game it’s really frustrating being a small town player

Wayspots are subject to inclusion rules for each of the games.

The below article gives details as to how the S2 Cell system is reported to work within Pokemon Go.

There 3 or more possible reasons why your Wayspot hasn’t appeared.

  1. It is in the same cell as an existing Wayspot.
  2. It has been accepted in an area that has blocked Wayspots from appearing.
  3. There was a Sync issue.

If you are able to give details such as Co-ordinates and the title of the Wayspot, we can check to see what could have happened.

While Pokémon Go states that you are nominating a PokeStop, you are actually nominating a Waypoint for use by the Niantic map. The various games draw from this map using rules which may be different for each game. Pokémon Go uses S2 cells and allows 1 waypoint per L17 cell. If there is already a PokeStop or Gym in the L17 cell, the one you had accepted may appear in other games but not in Pokémon Go. We can look into this for you if you provide the location in question. The can be found just below the Supporting Photo in the email you received when you submitted the nomination.

Not everyone plays Ingress and has access to the Intel map with the overlays. This is why we ask for the location, so we can look for them, especially if they aren’t interested in Ingress.
