Report Botting Accounts

[ArcaneKnight]

Hi, during the event I've noticed a number of accounts that seem to be suspicious and I suspect are botting to farm eevee tokens (and other events)

The accounts in question are

Spoiler

Dotter222
Garold76
Garold86
johannsen21
kiki82
kobe2408
Miriam90
miriram90
Mj100
Prost8569
Taillow92
Yuki321
Yuri3211
zangoose89

There are a few indicators that make me suspect these are one person botting

• They always appear together in groups of 4/5 on either Route 3 or Route 9
• These groups always appear at the same time and log out at the same time
• When the time is correct to find eevee, the accounts begin to move together (With a consistent delay)
• Many of their non-ot pokemon come from another account within the group
• Most of them have been registered during last years christmas event
• Despite this barely any of them actually redeemed an eevee (Christmas)
• They seem to have been active during the star wars and halloween event as well but all unique event mon have been transferred with many ending up on kiki82
• When I first witnessed them they also made the mistake of using Garold76 and Garold86 together on the same map, its unlikely these are two people

 

This may need to be looked into further if possible to see where the promo codes are being redeemed or where large transfers of pokemon have occurred incase their are other accounts but I'm confident these ones are at least being used to farm events using a bot or some other method of automation

Thought I would update this with a few more accounts that I've found including

• Viza (Likely the main account as it's the one linked to discord)
• VishTraining
• Aegon
• Rosai (Possibly)

I've also collected some evidence to showcase what I mean by the accounts acting strange and how they link together.

Screenshots can be found here. (Links to an album due to there being a few of them and didnt want to clutter the post up too much)
