Can you go back and read the full text of the email message that tells you it was accepted? It tells you that not all accepted Wayspots will show up in each game.

I know the prompt tells you that you are submitting a “Pokestop” but you are actually submitting a Wayspot to the Lightship database, which can only become a Pokestop or gym if it is alone in a level 17 S2 cell. This is a good article about S2 cells and PoGo: https://pokemongohub.net/post/article/comprehensive-guide-s2-cells-pokemon-go/
If you would like to give us the name of the wayspot and the coordinates, we can check on the map for you to see if this is the issue.

9.950245,76.299691 this is the coordinates of the location
I don’t see anything blocking this in ingress, but ingress does not show all wayspots, so I could be missing something.
Someone with access to the full database will need to check
hey there,
The location you submitted is blocked from Pokemon GO by the Wayspots “Best Bakers” at 9.950508, 76.299972 , as they share the same L17 S2 Cell. if the locations are already correct, then there is nothing else you can do.

to visualize this, here is a pin showing the location kawin gave
i know ingress did not use a lot of imports, so i would guess “Best Bakers” has a photo like this
It is in India, which does have a good number of imports, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it is one.

Ohh thanks for showing that
Is any other way that it can be done
I am not sure I understand your question. Some of these imports are not correctly located. You can check that and submit a location edit if it is not. You can also add a photo. I can’t tell if it is correctly located or not from Google Maps.
Sometimes I confuse people, so let me be clear: do not do a location edit on any Wayspot that is already correctly located just to put it in a different L17 S2 cell. That is considered abuse by Niantic.
I think you are wanting to remove the “Best Bakers” Wayspot, and I do think this is a bad import, as Google Maps satellite and Street View do not show a Best Bakers store in this area. It does appear to be a chain bakery, as I was finding other stores, but none around the streetscape walkway. Here’s just some of the results I found:
If the Best Bakers Wayspot is in PoGo, you may be able to request removal. If you’re not seeing it in any of the games, you can use the Wayspot Removals link at the top of the forum, which is also at this link:
You do not need to be the property owner or manager of the area to use the link above to request removal. Just provide as much info as you can.
Correct it states that wayspot is accepted and may not be in Pokémon go but in other games , My experience is one of my waystop is in pokemon go and ingres and the other wayspot is only in ingres. So why not both games like the last wayspot?
Hi @jmmorales2007,
Niantic currently has 5 games (Ingress, Pokemon Go, Pikmin Bloom, Peridot, and Monster Hunter Now). Only the first two of those games allowexperienced players to nominate wayspots. If accepted, these wayspots are eligible for all the games. But each game has inclusion rules (either proximity or density based on the game).
Your first accepted wayspot met both the proximity distance for Ingress and the density rule for Pokemon Go. While your second wayspot failed the density rule for Pokemon Go.
I’d recommend reading the link that @cyndiepooh inclded above as that article explains the density rules in detail : https://pokemongohub.net/post/article/comprehensive-guide-s2-cells-pokemon-go/
