'Pokemon Go' Top Cheats, Tricks Updates: Niantic Taking a Step to Ban Bot Users
The cheating days of some "Pokemon Go" users are now over as developer Niantic traces bots and GPS hacks. Niantic said that the terms of service for the phenomenal Gotta Catch 'Em All game clearly states severe punishment for anyone caught cheating, the worst of them is being permanently banned from the server.
Similarly, Niantic already introduced the soft-ban for suspected cheaters. It includes limited access to the server for several hours and the punishment is further elevated because of numerous reports of more advanced technical cheats being employed.

Niantic also stressed that fair game is the utmost ethos of "Pokemon Go" so players with an intent of cheating will face lifetime block. These fraudulent acts include modified and unofficial emulators, use of false location in GPS, third party software and counter engineering "Pokemon Go" clients.
Several unofficial fan sites also offer in-game hacks to "Pokemon Go," including addition of character generated through bots. Some seasoned trainers are also opening multiple accounts, replicating the Pokemon catch and selling them to other users when they reach high levels.
"Pokemon Go" retains the right to ban anybody found guilty of cheating without prior notice. However, Niantic clarified that they will provide an appeal service for "Pokemon Go" trainers. It would give trainers the time to counter and recover their account if they were unjustly blocked from the system.
Sticking to the Straight Way
The best way to beat the game is still going straight and fair so players are encouraged to use these fair "cheats and tricks" to conquer the game.
Hunt Pokemon in groups to avoid any accidents or untoward incidents. Remember that once a creature spawns, all players within the vicinity can catch it even if others have contained them already in their Pokeballs so no need to race against each other.
The foremost advantage of hunting in packs is the safety it provides. Players can avoid getting hit by a rushing car or getting victimized by robbers in dark and secluded areas.
Turn off your Augmented Reality to avoid draining too much juice and make it easier to catch Pokemon creatures. AR is a term that is popularized by "Pokemon Go." On a side note, it is sometimes deemed as the culprit why trainers find it harder to catch these monsters. The trick is to turn it off, then give it a green light only when there is a Pokemon nearby.
Force quit the app when it crashes especially if you are in the act of catching a Pokemon. It sounds irritating when Niantic servers crash because of strain from millions of users. However, sometimes players can count these as a blessing. When you force quit the app in the act of throwing a Pokeball, sometimes these monsters are automatically included in your Pokedex or they are still in the vicinity when you turn it on again.
