The most popular Pokémon Go map scanner, FastPokeMap has tightened their security and closed down third party API access to stop others from scraping their data. This means that many trackers that depend on their API will stop working.
Pokémon Go has a number of rare Pokémon, but some of them are harder to find than the others. Today, we will discuss on the elusive Porygon and how to catch one.
Pokémon Go is still the top five grossing app on the App Store even after the craze has some how calmed down. The fun part of the game is going out and catching Pokémon which brings back nostalgic memories.
Part of the reason to go out and catch Pokémon, apart from growing a stronger team for gym battles, is to fill up the Pokédex. Of course, it will get more and more difficult as you progress. Not to mention that some Pokémon are region specific. So unless you travel around the world, there is no way to catch ’em all. That is one of the reason why some will resort to cheating.
Pokémon Go Gen 2 is in the pipeline, and there are information about it every now and then while the development is in process. What do we have to prepare before its official release? The good news is that some of the Gen 1 Pokémon will be able to be evolved to a stronger Gen 2 Pokémon once it is released.
We will list down the Pokémon that you would want to collect candies now and will be able to evolve once Gen 2 arrives. So let’s get started.
Pokémon Go introduces the appraisal system since update 0.35.0 for Android and 1.5.0 for iOS. You can get an appraisal from your team leader and roughly know the IV stats of your favorite Pokémon.
Since this update, the IV calculators just got better by incorporating the in-game appraisal results in its calculation. You can get more accurate IV and no more vague results like 10 or 20 different possibilities of IV for a single Pokémon.

To calculate the IV of a Pokémon, open the IV Calculator. Then key-in the CP, HP, and Stardust required to power-up the Pokémon. What follows next is the result of appraisal from your team leader in-game. IV result from the calculation is more reliable since it matches with what your team leader says.

As the rush for Pokémon Go calms down, Niantic is working towards getting rid of cheaters. Botters, GPS spoofers, and scanners are being aimed. Rooted Android devices have been caught in the crossfire.
Niantic has broken its silence and confirms that they are behind the lockdown for third party services trying to access their servers last month. Recently, they have sent out warning to all trainers who are continuing to play on version 0.35.0. With the latest update of version 0.39.1 for Android, they have enforced a security blanket where older version of Pokémon Go would be forced for an update when trying to login.
The game developer expressed that third party services are hindering stability of the game and hinted at plans to improve third party integration.
“We have read your posts and emails and we hear the frustration from folks in places where we haven’t launched yet,” as stated in the post. “We want you to know that we have been working crazy hours to keep the game running as we continue to launch globally.”
Pokémon Go is going through a major nest migration right now. This round, the migration has been randomized further with changing spawn points as well.
Unlike earlier nests migration, there are some changes with spawn points as well:
Although we can’t confirm whether these changes is a buff or a nerf, the reports are indicating that Niantic is adding more spawn points rather than rearranging them. At the same time, the nests migration is on-going globally. There are hardly any nests that are not affected.
Players have also noticed that nests can spawn evolved Pokémon now. Some players reported Venusaur, Jolteon, Machamp, and other higher tier evolution Pokémon spawning on their respective nests.

Pokémon Go is going through the third major nest migration. Nests in Pokémon Go are real world locations where the same type of rare Pokémon spawns massively. There have also been reports of changing spawn points buzzing all over Reddit.
Both Charizard and Arcanine are high CP Fire type Pokémon. Combined with its high base attack, it is not easy to defeat Charizard without some type advantage.
Here are the strategies and best move set that is super effective on Charizard.
