# Pokemon Center
Our Pokemon Center module supports **guest checkout** only, making it one of the simpler and more consistent modules in Stellar. It’s primarily used for Pokémon cards that often return to stock without notice. *** ### **Video Guide** {% embed url="" %} *** ### **Preliminary Checklist** Before setting up tasks on Pokemon Center, make sure you have everything below prepared: * [ ] **Profiles** > Create and save your checkout [profiles](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-profiles-tab/how-do-i-add-a-profile) under the **Profiles tab** in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info. > > If your profiles are not properly set up, you may encounter payment decline errors. In most cases, these should be considered **profile declines**, not true card issues. Pokémon Center can reject a profile for several reasons, including mismatched billing information, address inconsistencies or previously flagged details. Ensuring your profile information is accurate and consistent greatly reduces the chance of these declines. * [ ] **Proxies** > - **ISP proxies** – Recommended for some of your tasks > - **Residential proxies** – Recommended for majority of your tasks > * Save both proxy groups under the **Proxies tab** in Stellar. > * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/stella-proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies * [ ] **Run on Local PC** > It's recommended to be on your local PC for Pokemon Center instead of running on your server. * [ ] **Create Captcha Harvesters** > Create at least five [captcha harvesters](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-captchas-tab/how-do-i-set-up-the-captcha-harvester) in the Captchas tab, you don't need to sign into YouTube (Gmail) for Pokemon Center. It's not recommended to use a proxy in the captcha harvesters proxy field as it uses the task proxy. * [ ] **Cook Group Access** > Optional but recommended. Your [cook group](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) can help you find product URLs, SKUs and early restock alerts. *** ### Supported Modes **Guest Mode**
*** ### When to Use Each Mode * **Guest Mode** → These tasks will wait in queue then ATC and checkout the product(s) you have inputted into your tasks * It's recommended to create at least 5 - 20 tasks per profile * There's usually a total task limit of 400-500 tasks running at the same time *** ### Profile Selection Select the profile you want to use under the **Profiles** dropdown.\ Your billing and shipping info from that profile will be used automatically during checkout. *** ### Proxy Setup For the best performance: * Use **ISP proxies** for some of your tasks. * Use **Residential proxies** for majority of your tasks. If you need reliable proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential options. *** ### Region Select the correct region\ If you choose the wrong region, you will not be able to checkout items. *** ### Products (URL or PID) You can live edit this field while tasks are running but needs to be done before your task enters the ATC process #### URL Find the specific product page.\ Example:\ Multiple URLs should be separated by commas:\ `url1,url2,url3` #### PID The Product Identifier is inside the URL. Example PID: **701-03742**\ (Including the dash is required.) Multiple PIDs can be entered like this:\ `PID1,PID2,PID3` {% hint style="warning" %} You must enter random numbers (ex. 127817190) in this field so your tasks can enter queue. You then want to edit all of your tasks to the correct Product URL or PID thats restocking. Your [cookgroup](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups#whats-a-cookgroup) should be providing you with this product information. {% endhint %} *** ### Coupon Enter any promo or coupon code normally. *** ### Delay You can live edit this field while tasks are running but needs to be done before your task enters the ATC process Recommended delay: **10000**\ Stable for queue movement and cart attempts during heavy traffic. *** ### Module Unlock Delay If you don't want your tasks to start immediately after our Pokemon Center module is unlocked, you can enter a delay here. This is to help reduce your tasks of passing queue too fast/early. If you want to use this option, it's recommended to enter anywhere between `30000` - `60000` (Ex. `40000`) *** ### Quantity (QTY) You can live edit this field while tasks are running but needs to be done before your task enters the ATC process #### Recommended QTY You can use **99** on restocks but some items may reject high quantities or can lead to errors like incapsula block; **1–2** qty is much safer. It's always best to check with your [cookgroup](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) for the products max qty to maximize your checkouts. *** ### Minimum Cart Quantity You can live edit this field while tasks are running but needs to be done before your task enters the ATC process Enter the minimum number of items you want to purchase.\ If your cart does not reach this number, the task will not submit checkout. Minimum Cart Quantity ensures that Stellar will **only proceed to checkout if your cart reaches the number of items you specify**, regardless of which SKUs were added. If the minimum isn’t met, the task will not check out. **Example 1:**\ Minimum Cart is set to **3**.\ The bot carts **2 ETBs**.\ Because the total is **below 3**, the bot **will NOT checkout**. **Example 2:**\ Minimum Cart is set to **1**.\ The bot carts **3 tins and 1 ETB**.\ Because the cart contains **at least 1 item**, the bot **WILL checkout**. **Example 3:**\ You run **3 different SKUs**, each limited to quantity 1 at **$9.99**.\ SKU 1 adds, SKU 2 adds, SKU 3 is out of stock.\ Your cart total is **2 items**.\ With Minimum Cart set to **3**, the bot **will not checkout**, helping you avoid paying shipping on a small $19.98 order. **Important:**\ Stellar will always attempt to **add all SKUs first** before checking whether the Minimum Cart requirement is met and proceeding to checkout. *** ### Catchall Enable this if you want Stellar to use your [Catchall](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-settings-tab/catchall-email-guide) email from the Settings tab. *** ### Endless Mode #### Endless Mode Enabled: After each successful checkout, task restarts automatically.\ Disabled: Task stops after one successful order. #### Endless Limit Enter how many successful orders you want before the task stops. *** ### Skip 3DS **If you're in US or Canada, leave this option disabled** Enabled: Bot attempts to bypass 3DS for faster checkout. This may increase payment declines depending on your bank.\ Disabled: Normal checkout flow. You may need to approve authentication manually if required. *** ### Rotate Profiles on Decline It's recommended to use this feature as it will allow you to rotate your profile to another profile in your profile group in the case that Pokemon Center declines your payment / profile. *** ### Captcha Provider Captchas appear in queue and at checkout. You can either use [Bot](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-captchas-tab/how-do-i-set-up-the-captcha-harvester) or [2captcha](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-settings-tab/how-do-i-set-up-2captcha) Recommended setup: * **Only use** [**Bot**](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-captchas-tab/how-do-i-set-up-the-captcha-harvester)**, you have to solve captchas manually inside the captcha harvesters you created.** The captcha harvester windows will automatically open when it's time for you solve captchas * It's recommended to enable the "Auto Click" option inside each captcha harvester * You could use [2captcha](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-settings-tab/how-do-i-set-up-2captcha) for some of your tasks but it's not reliable and could fail solving captchas You do not need Youtube (Gmail) login but signing in can improve stability. ### **Auto-Solve Captcha Feature** Stellar supports **auto-solving Captcha on Pokémon Center (PKC)** directly through our in-house solver. #### **Auto-Solve Options** * We recommend running a **mix of both (with and without Auto-Solve)** for best overall performance. * **Auto-click can safely be enabled on all harvesters.** Auto-solved CAPTCHAs can be processed either locally or via server-side handling. When using the server-side option, no additional setup or local resources are required (current harvester limit: 10). If using local AI, be aware that it will consume your system’s resources. It is recommended to test local AI performance to ensure your system can efficiently handle multiple harvesters. *** #### **Proxy Recommendations for PKC Captchas** Through internal testing: * **Clean ISP proxies** performed best overall * **Residential proxies** also worked well in some cases * Pokémon Center has increased **proxy protection** especially against one-click captchas Using clean, unburned proxies is critical for consistent captcha success. *** ### Error Messages & Fixes * **Module Disabled** * *Possible cause:* Normal behavior * *Suggested fix:* * Module is locked when no Pokémon Center queue is live * Either the module isn’t unlocked yet **or** restart your task/bot * **Incapsula Block** * *Possible cause:* Usually a proxy issue * *Suggested fix:* * Try different proxies * Use premium sticky residential proxies (Stella Premium Resis recommended) * **Captcha Pool Not Found** * *Possible cause:* No captcha solver key saved * *Suggested fix:* * Enter a captcha solver key in **Stellar → Settings → Captchas** * **Full Data Dome Ban** * *Possible cause:* Proxies are banned * *Suggested fix:* * Try different proxies * Use premium sticky residential proxies (Stella Premium Resis recommended) * **Payment Decline** * *Possible cause:* Pokémon Center website / payment processing issue (usually profile-related) * *Suggested fix:* * Treat as a **profile decline**, not a card issue * Ensure billing info matches exactly * Check address consistency * Avoid using previously flagged profile details * Keep profile information accurate and consistent to reduce declines * **Getting Homepage** * *Possible cause:* If looping or stuck, it’s site-related * *Suggested fix:* * Let tasks run **or** * Restart affected tasks *** ### Summary Pokemon Center is one of the most stable and consistent retail modules in Stellar. With the right setup, solid proxies, good captcha solving and smart delays, users can consistently secure Pokémon cards.
