    How you can download Pokemon Go in South Africa

    Pokémon Go may not be officially available in South Africa yet, but that doesn’t need to stand in your way.

    For what it's worth, I calculated the SHA-256 checksum of the latest version of Pokemon GO (0.29.2) on APKMirror:

    Won't there be any repercussions for downloading it with work around when the game officially releases here?

    Nah.

    Niantic isn't blocking users outside the countries it has launched it in the game itself, they're just limiting the distribution of the installer for now to spare their servers.
