The importance is more than just enforcing rules. Good VPN detection stops UK players from encountering unfair competition. Without it, players from regions with different in-game economies or easier catch rates could join UK contests. It also allows the developers control server traffic and organize local events, like UK-only tournaments or seasonal challenges. If detection stops working, everyone’s experience is harmed. That’s why it’s a fundamental part of the game’s security.
