As "Pokemon Go" continues to garner international recognition, an array of ingenious methods to beat the system have surfaced online, from attempts to sell accounts, phone cases and even drones.

A new video rolled out earlier this week has again raised the stakes for "Pokemon Go" hacking, featuring one-of-a-kind hardware-based solution to deal with the problem of having to step outside the comfort of their homes and take to the road to catch Pokemon.

Rather than using software to trick the GPS data dished out to the "Pokemon Go" app, this recently discovered method involves putting the phone in an radio frequency shield box, and utilizing a signal generator to spawn a bogus GPS signal which the phone - and the Pokemon Go app - receives and adopts as the "location" of the device, The Verge reported.

While this looks like an easy way to cheat the system, it is not sparred from flaws. Average "Pokemon Go" players may not even have the tools required to imitate this setup in their own homes - a signal generator, RF-shielded box, and a slew of other electric pieces of hardware - but even if they could, they'd still need to develop the software in order to control the avatar in the app to move around.

Besides, deceiving the game like this is against Niantic's rules, and will likely get a player banned if he gets caught.

Getting caught is quite likely, as though the hack replicates movement by modifying GPS signal, a player could still get caught for not displaying the matching accelerometer data to coincide with it, or for quickly teleporting from considerable distances by cheating the signal to sudden change location.

Nevertheless, the hack is quite impressive and is an indication of the kind of efforts the "Pokemon Go" community is willing to put in to play the hit augmented-reality game without having to actually play the game.

In other news, "Pokemon Go" can now use automatic bots to trick their GPS. Arrays of "Pokemon Go" bots are up for grabs, offering free trials and an affordable automation tool. Ideally, each of these operates in the same manner by providing artificial data to "Pokemon Go" servers and replicating a player who can play for hours.

This is how it works:

First of all, the user will provide coordinates to indicate a starting point; along with their "Pokemon Go" accounts details for authentication process. The bot then starts searching for nearby Pokemon and replicates a walk to the closest creature by sending fake GPS coordinates to the "Pokemon Go" server at the right time. As soon as the bot is near a Pokemon, it can use a basic API call to catch the character, and quickly move on the next target, ArsTechnica reported.

The "Pokemon Go" bots can perform a slew of other tasks such as trading duplicate Pokemon for resources, collecting new Pokeballs at Pokestops, evolving Pokemon, incubating and hatching eggs and shortlisting Pokemon to catch.

Users can opt to ignore specific Pokemon based on their current needs and stats.

Tests show "Pokemon Go" bot can help a player earn an average of 50,000 experience per hour, as a result of which, a player can reach level 15 in less than a day, simply by operating in the background.

That said, "Pokemon Go" players are encouraged not to try this at home.
