How this status checker works

Who's Down Today monitors Pokémon GO independently of the company that runs it. We send reachability checks from our primary location every 3 minutes and record response time, HTTP errors, and timeouts.

Pokémon GO does not publish a verified public incident feed, so this page does not invent an outage from a single failed request. A failed check from one location can be regional, caused by bot protection, or a transient network issue. We prefer "status uncertain" over a false major outage.

This page can show when an issue started, how long it lasted, and the type of error observed. It cannot see internal systems, so it does not claim a private root cause unless the provider publishes one. Read the full methodology.

Frequently asked questions

Is Pokémon GO down right now?

No. No, Pokémon GO is not down. Who's Down Today shows Pokémon GO as operational based on the latest official signals and independent checks. If you still cannot reach pokemongolive.com, the issue may be local to your connection, DNS, VPN, browser, or device.

Is Pokémon GO down for everyone or just me?

Who's Down Today currently shows Pokémon GO as operational from our monitoring location, which means pokemongolive.com is responding normally to our checks. If you are still having trouble, try another browser, device, or network, and check DNS or VPN settings.

What should I do if pokemongolive.com is up but I still cannot access it?

Try opening pokemongolive.com from another browser, device, or network (for example a mobile hotspot). You can also disable a VPN, flush local DNS, restart your router, or check whether your internet provider is having issues. If the site works elsewhere, the problem is likely local rather than a confirmed Pokémon GO outage.

How does Who's Down Today check if Pokémon GO is down?

We combine independent HTTP reachability checks with public status information where it exists. Pokémon GO does not publish a verified public incident feed, so this page does not invent an outage report from a single failed request. A single failed probe is treated as a possible transient or regional failure, not an automatic global outage. Bot protection, geo restrictions, and HTTP 403 responses are not automatically classified as downtime.

What does a Pokémon GO outage mean?

An outage on this page means recorded incidents or failed checks indicated that Pokémon GO was not responding normally. That does not always mean every user was affected. Some outages are regional, some affect only certain features, and some appear as errors or slow responses instead of a full failure.

Can this page tell me the root cause of a Pokémon GO outage?

Not exactly. We can show when an issue started, how long it lasted, the public incident title, and symptoms such as timeouts or slow response times. We do not have access to Pokémon GO's internal systems, so we cannot identify a private root cause such as a failed deploy or database incident unless the provider publishes it.

How do I report an issue with Pokémon GO?

Use the report form on this page if Pokémon GO looks down for you. Reports are anonymous, rate-limited, and used only as supporting evidence alongside official sources and independent checks.
