I've noticed since yesterday. While it catches most of others like Magikarp, Pinsir, etc---- I'm just more interested in Dratini and Larvitar at the moment. Please see attached sample screenshots, seems my PF doesn't detect them for the moment?
check your catch settings man. It might be because of that, you did not prioritize it as a rare pokemon to catch
Can you try clearing/deleting the settings, and manually updating them again? Just make sure you back up your transfer logic first because that one's a hassle
I've done a reset --- created a copy and removed the cache folder. Then input everything again, key, user/pass, coordinates. It started but only walking now. I didn't check the other settings --- the default setting is "keep 3 highest IV".....oops!!! Lucky it didn't work and I have stopped it now.
I have moved around sydney dealing harbour to circular quay, north sydney. The same thing. It catches other Pokemons. I didn't check how many other types but I have seen Pinsir, chasey, pidgey, phyduck, etc. But no matter how I put my self next to dratini and larvitar, PF doesn't see them.
https://www.thebuddyforum.com/threads/account-flagged.340216/ new algorithm of niantic. Flagged account aren't allowed to see rare pokemon. After that I checked my account. I was flagged, I got the red warning using third party application.
I believe i have the same problem at the moment on my bot... does any1 know how long does this flagg thingy lasts for?
One of my accounts shadowbanned without red wanning . So, I think once your account blinded, you can never catch any rare pokemon, worse than hard-banned
There is no confirmation that a shadow-ban will remain permanent, in fact some information seems to point in the opposite direction, but it does sound like the OP is having a situation like that.
