cooldown question

[u/gabrielebivona]

Im kinda newbie to spoofing and I know about cooldown but I don’t really understand how it works. Does it start from the last action that you make or its a general rule?
Because I haven’t used the app in 4 hours and now I wanna go from NY to Tokyo, so my question is if I can start catching pokemon right away or do I have to wait the 2hours?

These actions trigger a cooldown:

- Catching or attempting to catch a wild Pokémon, raid boss, or research reward Pokémon.
- Dropping a Poké Ball accidentally on the encounter screen (counts as a throw).
- Feeding a berry to a wild Pokémon or a raid boss.
- Spinning a PokéStop or Gym photo disc (even if your bag is full).
- Placing a Pokémon in a gym.
- Feeding berries to a gym defender while standing near the gym.
- Battling a gym defender.
- Using an auto-catcher device (like a Gotcha or Pokémon GO Plus) to spin or catch

As long as it’s been two hours since you have done that you should be fine.

wow that’s very informative. I think I fed my mate to gain hearts, is it still considered as ‘feeding a berry’

[u/Awwdamn65 → u/gabrielebivona]

Your buddy doesn’t count but if you fed at a gym it would

Oh nah just my buddy, but thank you a lot!

If you haven’t used the app in 4 hours, you can teleport and start catching

2 hours is a distance based thing

At max distance the cooldown is 2 hours

For example pokemon worlds event happened at san francisco and a pier 39 is also in san francisco (a common spoof spot)

Now if do things that can trigger cooldown(feed berry to wild mon,throw ball,spin pokestop/gym) your cooldown starts But if it is close the cooldown is way lower in this example the cooldown is 30 min

But best practice is when you teleport somewhere and catch something after you are done wait 2 hours regardless just to be safe

After 2 hours you can tp to any place and start catching

oh that’s cool, so technically if im shundo hunting I could just not use the app for a 2 hours and start tping around and just catch the shundo?

[u/Sarvan_12 → u/gabrielebivona]

Yes hunt for a shundo catch it give the game a 2 hr rest or play different parts that don't affect the cooldown like remote raids,gbl,hatching eggs buddy boosting etc
