The best map for "Pokemon Go" players is the Pokevision app that takes data from the game's servers, using the game's own API to help discover the Pokemon hidden in their midst.
According to PCWorld, Pokevision taps the game's API in order to provide a real-time view in the locations of the nearest Pokemon in the game. Each Pokemon location features a timer. The Pokemon disappears when the timer expires.
The Pokevision site claims that its map provides real-time live Pokemon locations that can "be found exactly at the marked spots." The Pokevision map is not showing Pokemon lured by incense, as those are not shown to the world at large but only to the player who lured them or the players nearby.
Pokevision may be the best map in the "Pokemon Go" highly-popular game because it is the ultimate cheat. Scanning an area with Pokevision help players find rare Pokemon across the current map.
There are, however, some downsides of Pokevision. Because this is one of the web's most popular maps for the "Pokemon Go" game, the site's servers are getting overloaded. Depending on the number of users accessing the game and the site, the Pokevision site is going up and down, according to the site's Twitter feed.
Another issue is the fact that Pokevision is, at least at the first impression, great only at showing where to find Pokémon in some major cities such as downtown San Francisco, London, the Santa Monica, Calif. Pier. However, it is possible to find Pokemon near a given location, if the player drops a location peg by clicking on the map.
According to the website vg247.com, Pokevision is a good option for those "Pokemon Go" players who want to enjoy the outdoors and find wild Pokemon. The newest feature to be introduced in Pokevision app is the ability to deselect certain Pokemon at the player's choice. This way, players of the popular "Pokemon Go" mobile game can focus their time only on those Pokemon they actually want.
