How To Play Pokemon Go On Your Computer?

Pokemon Go has earned its place as one of the most viral mobile applications of all time. It has already surpassed Tinder and Twitter in terms of downloads and daily users. According to the latest data, people are spending more time playing Pokemon Go as compared to Facebook.

This location-based augmented reality game is being played by millions of people all across America. Nintendo is working to expand its availability in other regions and bring along more people to this Pokemon-party.

To play the game, you need to walk around and catch Pokemons. For this purpose, the game uses your smartphone’s GPS. So, if you are thinking of using an Android emulator like BlueStacks to play this game on your PC, you need to do something more.

Things to Download

Bluestacks:

Kingroot: (Download for Android)

Pokémon GO: (Download latest version)

Step by step tutorial (if only want to spoof, start at step 2):

1. Clean install Bluestacks.1b. Disable camera by going into REGEDIT on your computer and going to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BlueStacks\Guests\Android\Config". Press camera and change the '1' to a '0', save and you're done.2. Install and run Kingroot and wait untill fully rooted.3. Restart the Android Plugin by clicking the gear wheel and press restart.4. Download GPS Spoofer, but do not install it yet.5. Install Lucky Patcher, allow it root acces and press "Rebuild & Install".6. Press "sdcard", "windows" and then find the GPS Spoofer apk file (I put it in "Documents").7. Press "Install" and let it install as a system file.8. Restart the Android Plugin by clicking the gear wheel and press restart.9. Open GPS Spoofer and uncheck everything, but check "Expert Mode".10. Choose a location in GPS Spoofer and spress the start button.11. Open Pokémon GO, log in and play! (If you want to move, select a new location in the GPS Spoofer app)

COMMON ERRORS:

"Failed to detect location." (if this doesn't work, then do the teleportation fix)
Change the GPS to High Accuracy, move your location on GPS Spoofer and restart Pokémon GO.

"Pokéstops not working/Pokémon fleeing after 1 Pokéball?"
You probably travelled to fast and got soft-banned, don't worry, it only lasts around one hour.

"My player keeps teleporting between locations."
Install an app from the Play Store called "DisableService" and allow root (obviously), search for the service "Fused Location" under System tab and disable that service. Then reboot. Doing this trick will disable your real GPS and then no teleporting will be happening. If you want your real GPS back, just enable "Fused Location" again and reboot.

"When I try to disable AR, everything freezes/crashes."
Disable camera by going into REGEDIT on your computer and going to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BlueStacks\Guests\Android\Config". Press camera and change the '1' to a '0', save and you're done.

"When I start Pokémon Go, I get a grey screen."
Either close Bluestacks entirely and relaunch Bluestacks or uninstall Bluestacks and redo the tutorial with Bluestacks for Windows 7/8.

"When I throw a Pokéball, the game crashes."
Delete your Google account from settings and restart Pokémon GO.

Note: While this game is free, playing it on PC is against the terms of Pokemon Go–so use this method at your own risk.
