Pokémon Go’s Ban Wave Lends Weight to the Rare-Quest ‘Injection’ Trade, and Fans Suspect an Inside Job
Pokémon Go players are reportedly receiving 30-day account bans for acquiring rare Pokémon through 'injecting,' a method that grants access to unauthorized questlines. This practice, which has been rumored for over a year and involves selling these rare creatures for hundreds of dollars, suggests a potential internal leak or server hack. Developer Scopely Explore has not yet commented on the situation.
