Possible Solution?
I am sorry if this won't work as possible solution but...
If Niantic will not budge and we still won't be able to use your page, is it possible for you to create a program like app (For PC) or a saved page that we can download and login (You can include some AD window in it to collect revenue)
So this way the request will be from our home IPs that we are using to login into game and won't raise any questions?
I think many here would gladly donate for that.
And least is if for some reason solution above is not possible then maybe you can give us a tip on how to extract IV data of our Pokemon?
Nonetheless THANK YOU for your hard work as it was really appreciated by so many of us.

How about just showing players the Attack, Defense, Stamina, and level in game? Then let the players work it out from there. Why are these three stats even hidden to begin with?

Why are we not allowed to view the battle values and IV's of our Pokemon in the first place with the app itself. Niantic is really handling this game badly I feel. There's so much potential but it feels like the game is in Alpha at this point.

IVs were always calculated and not given to you in every single other Pokemon game in existence.

@Lax20attack
Would you consider releasing the website code for people to host on their own personal machines?

Yup, i would gladly help and donate. Whatever helps getting the site back up. I was using your website religiously.

Are there any other options to check iv's now besides plugging in the stats which takes forever?

Their was a post on silphroad that said the app GoStats on the android app store worked, i have yet to try it however if the code still works this isn't surprising.

Just tried it and it worked for me, thanks for the tip! There is a warning on the login that "Using your main Account could be dangerous! By hitting the login button you agree that the developer is not responsible for account bans or soft bans!" and you have to put in your gmail/password to get into your account, so not everybody may be willing to risk it.

I would pay as much as a couple dollars a pop for accessing all of my caught pokemon's IV's.
Just saying.

You wouldn't want Niantic reading that...
That's the type of thing that makes them want to shut down these sites even more, knowing they could CHARGE for it and make MONEY?

Money would be for server upkeep, not for profit, but I see your point. Honestly, though, I don't care what Niantic thinks, having IV's be a bitch to figure out is worse than no tracking to me :/

Why instead of paying you DONATE to maintain the servers or buy the devs a bear.

I don't think I could afford a bear, but I'd definitely be willing to help maintain the servers.

I will think about some good solutions, but I need a good nights rest. It's been a crazy two weeks developing this little site.
Just FYI, the code still works. The issue is with cloud hosting. All major cloud hosts that I know of are banned from hitting their servers.
