Title: Packet sniffing / interception for pokemon?
Post by: ajhalls on October 06, 2016, 04:54:49 pm

Just curious about something crazy :) I have been cheating on Pokemon using a bot to play for me. Let's bypass all the ethical conversation about that  ;) They just released a new update that broke the bot program. One of the best features was the detailed stats of the pokemon in your inventory that you would get as part of the login cycle. Assuming I don't use the bot again, is there any way for OpnSense (or an add on package) to log the traffic and allow me to analyze it for what was sent and received when I log in on the wifi using the official app? I realize it isn't likely to be plain text, but maybe I can run it through the code from the bot to decompile it into usable info.

You can use the "packet capture" page to capture traffic or run tcpdump on the shell.

Hi ajhalls,

Best thread ever! :)

Fabian is right, this should work for you. It'll also allow you to download the capture.


Cheers,
