Five accepted Wayspots not appearing in Pokémon GO after more than one month

[AlexAxfow]

Hello,

I am reporting a possible synchronization issue with several Wayspots that were accepted on August 5, 2026.

I have five Wayspots that are still marked as ACCEPTED in Wayfarer and are visible on the Wayfarer map, but none of them have appeared in Pokémon GO, even after more than one month.

The affected Wayspots are:

• Grafiti de arte urbano
• Emblema del Consejo Comunal
• Mural “El Esequibo es de Venezuela”
• Mural “Venezuela Toda”
• Mural histórico del Esequibo

All five were accepted on August 5, 2026.

I understand that not every accepted Wayspot necessarily appears in every Niantic game, and I have already checked their locations and made sure that the nominations were properly separated. There are also several existing PokéStops and a Gym in the surrounding area, so I would like to confirm whether these Wayspots are being correctly processed for Pokémon GO.

The important point is that all five Wayspots are visible and accepted in Wayfarer, but none of them are appearing in Pokémon GO after more than 30 days.

Could you please check whether these Wayspots are affected by a synchronization issue, or whether there is another reason why they have not been added to Pokémon GO?

I can provide the exact coordinates and screenshots of the accepted nominations if needed.

Thank you.

Welcome to the forum.

Have you read this topic?

Why an accepted Wayspot may not be used in Pokemon Go (S2 cells and Pokemon Go)

tldr: See this article for an explanation of S2 cells: https://pokemongohub.net/post/article/comprehensive-guide-s2-cells-pokemon-go/ [Updated July 6, 2026] Although the Pokemon Go in-game prompts suggest that you submit a new “Pokestop,” you actually submit a new *Wayspot* to the database. (The Web Submit form reads “wayspot.”) An accepted Wayspot can only become a Pokestop/gym if it is alone in a level 17 S2 cell. Staff have acknowledged there is an additional step after acceptance for inclu…

If you do provide the coordinates we can check for you.

Hey @AlexAxfow ,

Thank you for submitting these Wayspot nominations! While some nominations may be deemed eligible by the community of reviewers on Scopely Explore Wayfarer for inclusion into our location database, they may not necessarily be added into every game. After a nomination is approved by reviewers, there is an additional automated review that determines whether the nomination is an appropriate fit for each particular game. Each game has their own set of criteria for this step, so some nominations may be accepted into one game but not another.

The most common reason that an eligible nomination is not added to Pokémon GO is because the nomination is too close to existing PokéStops or Gyms. If an existing game location is removed or the criteria changes, the nomination may appear within Pokémon GO at a later time.

Please keep in mind that while this is a common reason, it is not the only one.

Best,
