Pokémon Go players are cheating in battles with a dangerous Discord bot

Pokémon Go offers a unique style of battling for the Pokémon franchise, but there is currently a Discord bot that is threatening the game with how easily it allows players to cheat. 

Over the last several days, Pokémon Go players and content creators have been signal-boosting warnings about a gameplay exploit that uses a Discord bot to scrape the game’s code during battles.
