Ask HN: Any Niantic engineers or staff here who can help me?

2•jedberg•1h ago
My son got a hold of my wife's phone and tried to be "helpful" by trading in all of her zero star Pokemon to clean out her Pokédex. He ended up trading in over 100 of her Pokemon.

Unfortunately this was mostly her 2016 Pokemon, including a bunch of Eevees and Squirtles, which are her favorite, as well as bunch of other rare ones.

I contacted support and got the standard AI answer "we can't help you". But as an engineer I know there is always a way. :)

Can anyone help me get my wife's Pokemon back? Or just revert her account to April 22?

Her birthday is on Sunday so this would be a great present for her (she is quite upset that he killed her 10 year old account). :)

Thanks!
