You can very easily brick your device and if you’re not comfortable with potentially breaking your phone, you shouldn’t do it. Period.

Pokémon Go is, by all accounts, a fantastic mobile game that has spawned a legion of dedicated fans the world over. But just because a game is great doesn’t mean it can’t be broken.
I’m going to teach you how to completely break Pokémon Go (on Android), catch any Pokémon you want, anywhere in the world, and, truthfully, ruin the entire experience for yourself. If you’re loving the game right now, I’d recommend you stop reading right here and move on with your life. Cheating in Pokémon Go takes a lot of the fun out of it, and can sour you on the entire experience. If you cheat, you’re a bad person.
This is your last chance to turn away.
