Pokémon GO is taking the world like crazy with people all over the world looking to take on their local gyms and become the one true Pokémon monster. After recent events where people have been injured playing the game, people are now able to stay a little bit closer to home when it comes to playing the game thanks to the ability to request your Pokémon GO stops and gyms at locations around you.
The new form, available on their website, lets you fill in a request for a new location within the game. The reasons currently accepted for a new location are as follows:
- Current Pokéstops or Gyms are in dangerous locations
- A lack of local stops
- A new landmark has appeared
The name and location of the stops are required, with the ability to provide specific coordinates if you want it in an exact location. Now for the bad news, currently Niantic Labs is not accepting requests for new stops and gyms, possibly due to the number of server issues they’ve had to content with given the global launch of the latest augmented reality game. The exact message reads:
“Thanks for your interest in adding PokéStops and Gyms to Pokémon GO. While we’re not currently accepting new submissions, we’ll keep your city in mind in the future”
