RELATED: Pokemon Go’s New Gigantamax Feature Seems Doomed to Failure

The player said he had done nothing to justify the strike, which is what people usually say when they are in danger of losing access to Pokémon Gobut in this case (and many others today) they are indeed false warnings. Many other actors within the Pokémon Go subreddit corroborated reports like these by saying that they had also received warnings and, in some cases, been banned outright.

“I was in the middle of a raid a few hours ago when my account was suspended,” said one Pokémon Go said the player. “I’ve been playing since day one, I’ve never (cheated), I don’t even know how to cheat in this game. I appealed but got no response. 30 days without reason.

While one might expect that the summit Pokémon Go the post in today’s subreddit would be about Gigantamax Venusaur, Gigantamax Charizard and Gigantamax Blastoise, the post is more about this fake ban issue. Almost everyone is saying the same thing thing there – they didn’t do anything wrong, and Niantic doesn’t help much outside of sending canned responses urging players to follow the rules. No one knows why they are banned or if these bans will remain, but many players are slapped with a 30-day ban. If these are not reversed, it means that the people concerned Pokémon Go players will not only miss Gigantamax events but also Halloween events which are also in progress.

Pass Pokémon Go events rarely went smoothly, and in most cases when something goes horribly wrong, events can be rescheduled or players can receive some form of compensation to make up for lost time. Once Gigantamax Weekend is over, it wouldn’t be surprising to see something similar happen when it comes to all these bans.
