Pokémon GO: Niantic Lowers PokéStop Submission Level Requirement to 38

 

In Pokémon GO, you can now submit your own stop suggestions starting at level 38. We will show you what you need to pay attention to for the requests to be accepted.

What's new? On the evening of November 10, 2020, Niantic announced a change to PokéStop submission of proposals. Previously, you could only submit proposals if you had reached level 40 as a trainer.

The Niantic team has now lowered this requirement. From now on, you can submit stop proposals when you have reached level 38.

What is the point? You can use this feature to influence how many stops or arenas appear in Pokémon GO. So you can photograph important places in your area and suggest them as a stop. If they are recognized, you will soon have one more chance in Pokémon GO to get items or fight in arenas and earn coins.

This is how you send stops in Pokémon GO.

How are you doing with the game? The function for submitting proposals is kept really simple.

• Launch Pokémon GO
• Now tap on the Poké Ball in the middle of the bottom screen.
• Now select the item "Settings."
• Now scroll down
• Almost at the bottom of the overview, you will find the "Player Tips" category.
• Here you have the opportunity to suggest a new stop.

Such graphite is suitable as a PokéStop suggestion in your area.

Then the game takes you by the hand and clarifies the decisive measures step by step. You need to mark the stop on the map, take photos, and write a description for the players and the reviewers.

Reviewers are community players. They then check to see if a stop suggestion also complies with the rules and if it should be ignored. If you want to control and approve stop suggestions yourself, you can do it from level 38.

What should I consider when submitting a stop?

There are guidelines: Niantic explains exactly what rules the paperwork must follow. There are ideal places for PokéStops:

• Historic places with an interesting history
• A work of art or special architecture (statues, paintings, mosaics)
• An insider or a locally known place (restaurants, hotels, etc.)
• Public parks, libraries, or cultural sites
• Transit stations such as train stations or stops.

Places that are not safe for pedestrians or that are on private property are not suitable. Also, temporary objects such as a Ferris wheel at the fair or other dismantled objects after a certain time are not suitable.

You can read the exact rules on the Niantic website. But we still have some recommendations for you on how your suspension proposal will be successful.

The chances are good here: At InafGo, we closely observe and analyze the stops in Pokémon GO. We noticed 9 places or things that almost always turn into PokéStop.

Churches and memorials are important stops in Pokémon GO that are tied to the history of a place. PokéStops are often created in these locations. City maps are also often used as stops as they are important for player orientation.
