What is PokeAlert?
PokeAlert is a mobile app designed for players of the augmented reality game Pokemon Go. Its primary purpose is to help Pokemon Go players efficiently locate and catch rare Pokemon that randomly spawn in the real world locations where they live and play.
The app works by continuously scanning user-submitted reports of Pokemon spawns and sending notifications in real-time to players when rare or high-IV Pokemon spawn near their GPS location. This allows players to quickly travel to that spawn point and attempt to catch the Pokemon before the short spawn timer expires.
Some key features of PokeAlert include:
- Real-time notifications when rare, high-IV, or shiny Pokemon spawn near the player's location
- User-submitted Pokemon sightings ensures a crowd-sourced network of spawn reports
- Ability to scan multiple locations to track spawn points in different areas
- Filter options allow customized scanning for only certain desirable or rare Pokemon
- Available as a mobile app for both iOS and Android devices
By leveraging user reports and geolocation services, PokeAlert provides an efficient way for Pokemon Go players to improve their chances of catching those elusive top-tier Pokemon needed to advance in the game.
