The Pokemon Trainer Club Issue
Just a few weeks ago, “Pokemon GO” players were unable to log into the game for some unknown reasons. They initially thought it had something to do with their connection and/or mobile date.
Apparently, it is not, as it turns out to be an issuing in the Pokemon Trainer Club feature.
Basically, players who have this account were having a hard time logging in due to Niantic’s server messing up with the system.
