Pokemon Go: Players believe game is reviewed by bots on Play Store

Amid the controversy surrounding Remote Raid costs, some players are speculating that Niantic is recruiting bots to give five-star reviews on Play Store and App Store. Niantic surged the price of Remote Raids from 100 Pokecoins to 195.

Consequently, players have spoken out against the price increase, which has impacted rural and disabled users. In response, 90 thousand people have signed a petition on Change.org to bring back the old Remote Raids.

Furthermore, Pokemon Go trainers have started striking against Niantic by either deleting the app or refusing to buy the in-game items. Now, users are convinced that the company has been generating five-star reviews and deleting those that expose the game.

Are bots providing Pokemon Go five-star reviews

Many screenshots have emerged on IMGUR depicting simple five-star reviews of the game. Examples of the compliments included “great” and “very super,” which reviewers wrote in the few days before the Remote Raid cost adjustment.

Moreover, Reddit user flyingswordfish posted the so-called fabricated reviews on the Pokemon Go subreddit. “At the risk of Pokemon Go itself I want Niantic to go down hard because of this change,” FlavorfulHades wrote. “Hope there’s someone more versed in weird legalese who knows who to report them for this,”

How to Sun Stone in Pokemon Go?

Sun Stones can only be acquired by spinning PokeStops and Gyms. With a measly 1% drop rate, getting one of these stones is pretty tough. To make matters more difficult, Sun Stones drop alongside the game’s other Evolution items, which means players’ chances of getting one are very slim. This is because players can end up with a different item instead.

How to get a Sun Stone fast:

• Spin as many PokeStops and Gyms as possible.
• Visit a popular area with lot of PokeStops to maximize the spins in a short period of time.
• Players will receive a special evolution item on the 7-day streak of PokeStop Daily Bonus. If you’re lucky, it could be the Sun Stone!
• Event-exclusive Field Research tasks that reward evolution items like the Sun Stone.

To evolve the chosen Pokemon with a Sun Stone once players have met the above requirements, all players need to know are these steps:

• On the Pokemon Go app, players need to click the Poke Ball icon.
• Select ‘Pokemon‘ to open Pokedex from the menu.
• Find the creature to evolve and select it.
• Now, players will see ‘Evolve‘ displayed underneath ‘Power Up‘ if they meet the requirements.
• Viola! Their Pokemon will now use the Sun Stone to evolve.
