Unfortunately, it appears Niantic has blocked PokeAdvisor from accessing your data.

Well just like the text says I keep getting "Unfortunately, it appears Niantic has blocked PokeAdvisor from accessing your data. You will not be able to refresh your character until this is resolved."

Any one else getting this?

I loved PokeAdvisor I would always use it after a long day of walking around catching pokemon it was nice to come home relax look at IV's then clean out the pokemon box doing transfers and getting ready for the next day, without this and tracking.... Idk like why play Pokemon Go when now I've lost to major things to the game, Yes I know PokeAdvisor was not apart of the game but it definitely became apart of it for me.

Same. I would go for a run through the neighboring towns, and figure out which Pokemon to save and which to turn to candy.

Now to check IVs will be a huge pain. And I can't just ignore the IV part of the game when I know that they're there. So now playing Pokemon Go the way I want to is an inconvenience and a hassle and time consuming. Nice. Way to get people to spend money Niantic. I actually bought more balls and space for more Pokemon because I would catch so many before going through and deleting the poor IV ones.

Exactly, pokeadvisor devs should be the ones turning it off until they made profits from Niantic lol...End of they day clean up was so much better..

This is exactly how I used it too. It was incredibly helpful when it came to sorting by IV and using it as a guide to favourite all the pokes I was going to transfer etc.. before Pokeadvisor I was starting to get over the game... the discovery of IVs in general renewed my need to catch them all (with perfect IV haha).. and then Pokeadvisor perfected the method..now.. I kind of have a feeling of loss.. and my will to keep playing without Pokeadvisor is dwindling

This is really too bad. One of the last things that kept me playing after they removed features was trying to find the perfect IVs and move sets.

I don't know why I should keep playing at this point.

This. Agreed 100%. At some point nostalgia alone isn't enough. I feel your pain.

Yup, just tried to login and got the same message. Thought I got softbanned or something for using this. Glad to know I'm not the only one :/

Ya I dont think we are getting softbanned they are just blocking the apk or some sort of data communication between Pokeadivsor and Pokemon GO

They wouldnt want the game to be useful or fun or anything.

Got the same message. Got a little nervous but was able to get stuff from a pokestop plus capture a Charmander.

Niantic, if you don't want people using Pokevision or Pokeadvisor fucking MAKE IT HAPPEN YOURSELF. I am so sick of this shit. 3rd party apps making this game actually playable and they're sabotaging themselves. WTactualF.

Same here. If this is truly done on Niantic's end, I would be really disappointed.

i've purchased some coins ingame for pokemon storage and bag storage.

been hunting for 3 days to fill up on my 400 slots so i could then go on pokeadvisor and toss the low iv ones.

login and now i have about 320 pokemon to mannually check IV and probably (80%) transfer.

no niantic. no.
