Concerned businesses can report issues to the game鈥檚 developer

Players of the hit Pok茅mon Go game will go to great lengths to 鈥渃atch 鈥榚m all鈥, including in some cases trespassing on building sites, .

The hit 鈥渁ugmented reality鈥 game hides 鈥減ocket monsters鈥 and playable interactive locations in the real world. This can be a problem if that includes your under-construction project.

So what should you do if digital monsters pop up on your site?

Niantic, Pok茅mon Go鈥檚 developer, has an online form to report and request the removal of interactive locations within the game known as 鈥渟tops鈥 or 鈥済yms鈥.

These in-game locations have been known to be inaccessible to the public without trespassing, either because they are on a construction site or on private land. This can be because the game鈥檚 engine is based on out-of-date mapping data.

But what about the digital monsters themselves? Niantic doesn鈥檛 currently have a reporting system for errant Pok茅mon.

It is likely this is because Pok茅mon only ever appear in a location temporarily, unlike the fixed stops and gyms.

The game also frequently warns players not to trespass upon loading the game. A typical message reads: 鈥淒o not enter dangerous areas while playing Pok茅mon Go鈥.

But for players minded to avoid these warnings, the game could still potentially tempt them into trespassing.

The game constantly alerts players if there are Pok茅mon nearby, a function that might lure reckless players into restricted areas in their efforts to hunt them down.

Third party apps also exist that scan a given area for Pok茅mon and pinpoints them on a map, with an estimate of how many minutes they鈥檙e likely to be there before disappearing. Could this tempt players onto building sites as well?
