Question for UK players

[Illusionss]

For those of us that have downloaded Pokemon go early by changing region in itunes, when it is officially released in the UK do we have to start fresh? Or can we use the same gmail/trainer club account. Thanks.

Presumably if the version is the same when it gets released worldwide you wouldn't have to do anything over again. It might be possible for them to flag/ban the accounts that accessed early to remove the unfair advantage though.

From what I understand, it's linked to the email/Pokemon Club details you log into, I don't think it's just the physical app.​

So it would still keep old data?

This is my understanding, but nothing is confirmed. Please, don't delete the app just incase.​

I won't, I'll probably use my old phone to test it out

I'm 99% that just logging in with the same account you'll be OK. I'd also be very surprised if they banned or reset accounts that downloaded early.
