Surprising result: The majority of you are willing to cheat in Pokémon GO

Surprising result: The majority of you are willing to cheat in Pokémon GO
  • MaMU: “NO – I would not cheat. Then it would be like in every other game where you can enter cheats directly (e.g., via console commands, etc.) – within a short time you would have everything there is to get and the game would at that point no longer be worth playing. If I registered all Pokémon within a few days, why should I continue playing?”
  • Xpiya: “I mean, if you take away the going out aspect of Pokémon GO, it’s an incredibly bad game. It’s only the fact that you play it along the way, here and there on your smartphone that makes it interesting. Who wants to play a game like PoGO really actively and regularly from the couch? Even a visit to the dentist is more fun than that.”

Trainer Suggests Idea That Could Make Spoofing Uninteresting

To minimize the number of players who cheat in Pokémon GO, Niantic could also establish one or the other feature that makes spoofing less interesting. One possibility from the perspective of Pokehunter0815 is the allowance of trading over distances. He writes:

Niantic has begged with the decision to implement regional Pokémon and events for spoofing to happen. [… ] For example, if you could at least trade with Best Friends worldwide, what reason would there be for people who only want to fill their Pokédex to still spoof? Additionally, there should also be a simple chat function (which goes through Campfire, but only if everyone uses Campfire, and that feature isn’t really good) directly in the game. Battling worldwide works too, right? Why not the same logic for trading, including the pop-up window ‘Trainer xxx wants to trade with you…’, I would find that cool. Plus, a wish list of which Pokémon you would like to have and which ones you would like to give away would be perfect.

Whether Niantic will eventually introduce this feature remains to be seen for the moment.

What is your opinion on spoofing? Are you surprised that so many trainers would be willing to cheat in the game if they could be sure not to be caught? And would you perhaps do the same? Or are you strictly against cheaters? Feel free to let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers about it.

There is now surprisingly a new raid feature in Pokémon GO that trainers have been waiting for for years. We show you what it brings you.

Even a visit to the dentist is more fun than that.”

Trainer Suggests Idea That Could Make Spoofing Uninteresting

To minimize the number of players who cheat in Pokémon GO, Niantic could also establish one or the other feature that makes spoofing less interesting. One possibility from the perspective of Pokehunter0815 is the allowance of trading over distances. He writes:

Niantic has begged with the decision to implement regional Pokémon and events for spoofing to happen. [… ] For example, if you could at least trade with Best Friends worldwide, what reason would there be for people who only want to fill their Pokédex to still spoof? Additionally, there should also be a simple chat function (which goes through Campfire, but only if everyone uses Campfire, and that feature isn’t really good) directly in the game. Battling worldwide works too, right? Why not the same logic for trading, including the pop-up window ‘Trainer xxx wants to trade with you…’, I would find that cool. Plus, a wish list of which Pokémon you would like to have and which ones you would like to give away would be perfect.

Whether Niantic will eventually introduce this feature remains to be seen for the moment.

What is your opinion on spoofing? Are you surprised that so many trainers would be willing to cheat in the game if they could be sure not to be caught? And would you perhaps do the same? Or are you strictly against cheaters? Feel free to let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers about it.

There is now surprisingly a new raid feature in Pokémon GO that trainers have been waiting for for years. We show you what it brings you.

There is now surprisingly a new raid feature in Pokémon GO that trainers have been waiting for for years. We show you what it brings you.

In Pokémon GO, “spoofing” is a major topic in the community. For this reason, we wanted to know from you whether you would cheat if you weren’t caught. The surprising result of this inquiry is summarized here for you on MeinMMO.

What was the survey about? Although the developers of Pokémon GO promote honest gameplay, there are always trainers who want to gain an advantage in the game through so-called spoofing. They change their GPS location and cheat to move to a different place.

This cheating is not endorsed by Niantic and is punished at irregular intervals through various types of bans. However, we wanted to know how you feel about spoofing and whether you would do it if you couldn’t be caught. Below you can see the result.

The result of our survey

Here is what you decided: In our community survey from March 15, 2023, we wanted to know if you would cheat in Pokémon GO if you could be sure not to be caught. Every reader could vote once in the survey. So far, 3,233 readers have participated in our survey – with a surprising result (as of March 18, 2023, at 21:00). Here is how you voted:

  • 1,107 votes (34.2%) for “No, cheating is out of the question for me”
  • 1,005 votes (31.1%) for “Yes, then I would do it regularly”
  • 818 votes (25.3%) for “Yes, I would try it once”
  • 303 votes (9.4%) for “I am already spoofing”

Thus, about 66% of the participants (a total of 2,126 votes), which is the majority of trainers, would be willing to cheat in Pokémon GO or at least try it once. 303 of them (about 9%) are even currently cheating.

Only 1,107 readers (approximately 34%) stated that cheating would not be an option for them, not even if they couldn’t be caught. This means that just over a third of participants would continue to play honestly.

Why is the result surprising? Normally, trainers who spoof in Pokémon GO are often criticized in the community. Particularly cheaters who disadvantage other players, for example by repeatedly throwing them out of gyms, are a thorn in their side.

It is all the more surprising that a large majority of you would be willing to cheat yourselves. However, there are good reasons for this, as some participants revealed in the comments.

How I feel about the topic of “spoofing” can be read here.

Reasons Players Would Be Willing to Cheat

Some trainers who indicated in the survey that they would be willing to spoof have explained their decision in the comments under our post on MeinMMO as well as in our Facebook group.

It becomes clear that they would mainly use this option for the content that Niantic currently makes difficult for them, such as trading with friends in other parts of the world. But also to complete their Pokédex or to collect Vivillon, some would be willing to travel digitally to other regions.

Regional events also play a role in the decision. For example, you can read the following comments (via MeinMMO & Facebook):

  • GedoensPuni: “Yes, I would do it. For regional and shiny [Pokémon] and for the last gifts for Vivillon.”
  • Luke: “If it were legal, I would try it. As long as Pokémon GO doesn’t change that there’s no possibility to play in a small village and no way to create a PokéStop. Niantic should give all players the same chance and not make it so you have to drive several kilometers just to be able to spin at least a few [PokéStops]. Niantic practically forces honest players to find ways to play normally.”
  • Sly M.: “Yes and no… I think if you live in a village it’s harder, and I could imagine it. In the city, if you are healthy and have the opportunity to go out, probably not.”
  • Rocco G.: “I only made a small spoofer because I was missing Ocean Purmel. I couldn’t wait anymore and the unresolved task annoyed me. If I spoofed, then just to move away from home because there are people who can’t move properly, who are sick, live in a village with zero stops or gyms, and have no way to quickly go somewhere. So spoofing is only to move your character and catch monsters, but there shouldn’t be any teleporting possible. Such a feature could also be unlocked for a few hours a day, practically for village players and those with limited mobility.”
  • Mario W.: “Maybe, but only for regional Pokémon and regional events.”

Are you still missing Vivillon? We show you from which regions you need friends:

Reasons Trainers Would Not Cheat

Spoofing ruins the fun of the game: However, numerous contributions can also be found in the comments where trainers explain that they would never cheat. And this also has clear reasons from their perspective (via MeinMMO & Facebook):
