Asia CD reschedlue exploit?

If you knew a mate/family member etc in asia, can you do your trades/what not, get your luckies, then ask them to log on to your account and evolve for meteor mash during beldum day V2?

Yes you can spoof it, which is really what your question was.

Lets not get into the debate of what is/isn't considered spoofing- I'm asking for a yes/no because i'm not sure if there is a mechanism by niantic to combat this- (e.g. must have asia tag to evolve during CD? Who knows)

As far as I'm concerned niantic cannot tell if you've legit bought a plane ticket to asia and just so happened to play for CD or if you've account shared unless you made it blatantly obvious by by logging in straight away after. Just wanted to double check that

If they want to detect it, they can. They can certainly flag accounts that only log in during CD and never played in the area before or after. They can detect if the login is from a different device etc...

Don't think the new device argument holds any weight. Device information is accessed through the google api which will register a new device whenever you wipe your phone or upgrade your phone or even just perform an OS upgrade.

Unless of course you're saying i'm not allowed to factory reset my device....:)

The account activity thing can be a thing of concern though, even though such monitoring is costly and is not as clear cut as spoofing apps detection, for example.

Yes, but we had an hour to do that legit after CD.

I gave my brother (and nephew) a level 36 account last week in June. I'm in America, they are in Sweden. I had an EX raid I wanted to "solo" during that first week that I gave it to them. It went back and forth several times, it took several simultaneous screwups for me not to see any spawns or be able to do any spins here. It was fine when it stayed over there.

Another safer answer/approach, give them the login on an alt and set up for them to evolve some untraded 600cp+ beldums. Then trade those to yourself. Or stop playing your big account in preparation for the flight.
