PGTools: Three automation modules — PaC, PaS and PaH — for rooted Android only
Visit the PGTools websitePGTools is an automation suite, not a calculator. PaC farms stops and catches, PaS shiny-checks, PaH hatches eggs — and every module needs a physical, rooted Android device. Emulators and virtual machines will not run it.

Root is not optional
PGTools states it plainly: you need a physical, rooted Android device. Virtual machines and emulators will not work, and neither will an unrooted handset. That is the single most common reason a download fails to run.
Every phone we ship is a physical device rooted with Magisk 30.7 and hidden with Zygisk, which is the environment PGTools expects.
- Physical rooted Android only — no emulators or VMs
- Free APK download; licence activation is arranged with PGTools staff on Discord or Facebook
- Final and Beta builds are published at v6.0.6, supporting Pokémon GO 0.425.1
- Data Hub (v2.4.2) is a separate app supplying Rocket coordinates with grunt type and gender filters
PaC — the farming and catching module
PaC is the workhorse. Spin Mode only spins PokéStops and Gyms for fast item farming; Catch Mode runs Normal, Fast or Ultimate Catch, the last scanning and catching in the background.
Around that sit catch filters, berry feeding before a throw, enhanced catching with Excellent Throw, Curveball and Expert Handler, PokéBall priority and minimum/maximum ball counts, and Touch N' Go to return to the map after each action.
- Transfer and keep filters by IV, shiny, hundo, shundo, 0% IV, egg hatches, quest catches and XXS/XS/XL/XXL size
- Mass transfer, mass evolve and purify, plus evolve before transfer
- Show IV instead of name in inventory
- Item management with automatic use of Mystery Box, Gimmighoul Coin Bag, Daily Adventure Incense, Incense, Star Piece, Lucky Egg and Lure Modules
- Auto hatch eggs per-incubator, buddy feeding and petting, quest and Special Research completion
- Visual Disguiser and Screen Feature to cut lag, heat and screen burn
- Incognito name, friend gifting tweaks, encounter/catch/spin limits, config import and export
PaS — the shiny checker
PaS exists to check spawns for shinies and rare stats without you watching the screen. You can set the starting cooldown by date, time and last-action coordinates so it does not act inside a soft ban.
Filters cover species, level, specific IV targets for hundo or PVP, gender, form, costume and size, with an exclusion list for anything you never want caught. It teleports in-app, so it runs without a joystick.
- Set starting cooldown from your last catch or action
- Shiny, IV, gender, form, costume and size filters plus an exclusion list
- Enhanced catching, preferred PokéBall, berry before catch
- Unset buddy — helps with shiny and shundo Zorua
- Notifications for checked, caught and remaining cooldown; encounter and catch limits
PaH — the egg hatcher
PaH is narrower: it keeps incubators loaded and eggs moving. It auto-spins a PokéStop when egg space frees up and auto-opens friend gifts to pull in 7km eggs.
Transfer and keep filters, mass transfer, IV-instead-of-name, item management, buddy handling and the same Visual Disguiser, Screen Feature and gifting tweaks come along with it.
Where PGTools fits alongside a client
PGTools automates what happens once you are somewhere. It does not replace a joystick client for free-roaming play, so most trainers pair it with iPogo or PolygonX for movement and let PaC or PaS handle the grind.
It is also the heaviest usage pattern on this site in ban-risk terms: continuous background automation looks far less human than manual play.
