If you need Tokyo Pokémon GO coordinates that are actually worth the teleport, this page is built for this. We jumped to each candidate pin in-game, counted the PokéStops and Gyms in range, and kept eleven spots that cleared at least 400 combined POI—you'll see the exact numbers beside every coordinate below.
Here's a quick verdict, if you want raid lobbies that fill quickly, start around Shinjuku Gyoen or Ikebukuro—the gym density there beats everything else on this list. If you want to grind items, Akihabara usually gives the most spins without hopping pins. And if you've never spoofed Tokyo before, Shibuya Crossing is the pin we'd suggest first: compact, easy to recognize on the map, and hard to land in the wrong block.

Tokyo Pokemon GO Raid & PokéStop Routes We Tested
These are the multi-pin sessions we used after the POI scan. Each jump
These are the multi-pin sessions we used after the POI scan. Each jump
Four-pin gym sweep (west → north)
Chains the four highest gym-density pins. Best on Raid Hour (Wednesday 18:00–19:00 JST) when lobbies fill fastest.
- Start: Shinjuku Gyoen — (84 Gyms)
- Then: Shinjuku Kabukicho — Wait ~30 sec after last action
- Then: Shinjuku Station East Exit — Wait ~30 sec
- Finish: Ikebukuro Sunshine City — Wait ~4 min (~5 km)
Stop-farming triangle (central → east)
Hits the three highest PokéStop counts. Use joystick movement at 4–8 km/h between pins instead of teleport-hopping block to block.
- Start: Akihabara — (556 stops)
- Then: Ueno Park — Wait ~2 min (~2 km)
- Finish: Kinshicho Station — Wait ~3 min (~4 km)
Skytree corridor (east Tokyo)
Lower spoofing traffic than the Shinjuku–Ikebukuro corridor. Good for Community Day loops and incense sessions.
- Start: Ueno Park —
- Then: Kinshicho Station — Wait ~3 min
- Finish: Tokyo Skytree — Wait ~2 min (~2 km)
Tokyo Pokemon GO Coordinates by Ward: What Each Pin Logged
We grouped these pins by ward in this part. Each write-up below is what we logged in-game after jumping in—not a travel-guide blurb.
West Tokyo Pokemon GO Coordinates: Shinjuku & Shibuya
Shinjuku Gyoen
35.6914, 139.7002
Our scan logged 84 Gyms here, more than any other Tokyo pin on this page. Raid lobbies filled faster here on a Wednesday Raid Hour test than at Shibuya, even though Shibuya has more total POI nearby.
Shinjuku Kabukicho
35.693840, 139.703549
Kabukicho sits about 400 m from Gyoen, so we jumped between the two pins with just a 30-second wait. We tested at night, and the foot traffic kept gyms turning over quickly.
Shinjuku Station East Exit (Metro Promenade)
35.691230, 139.704140
This pin puts you on the covered walkway east of JR Shinjuku—not at Sensoji Temple in Asakusa, which sits about 9 km away. Stops here line the Metro Promenade (メトロプロムナード) from the station concourse to the department-store row.
Shibuya Crossing
35.6595, 139.7006
Good first pin if you are new to Tokyo coordinates—the scramble crossing radius is compact and easy to joystick around. Total POI is mid-pack on this list, but the area is familiar enough that you will not land in the wrong block.
Ikebukuro Tokyo Raid Coordinates
Ikebukuro (Sunshine City)
35.72924, 139.71923
We counted 79 Gyms here on our scan, second only to Shinjuku Gyoen. Reddit players already recommend this pin for GO Fest raid trains; our test matched that: lobbies filled within a minute on a weekday evening.
Central Tokyo Pokemon GO Coordinates: Akihabara, Tower & Roppongi
Akihabara
35.6984, 139.7730
This is lead pin on our item-grind test: 556 stops in range, the highest on this page. We ran a Star Piece here during a Community Day replay and hit dense lure chains along the arcade rows without leaving the pin radius.
Tokyo Tower
35.6586, 139.7454
Tokyo Tower is a landmark stop, not a farming anchor. We found 35 Gyms, fewer than the Shinjuku pins, but tourist footfall kept one 5-Star lobby active during our evening check.
Roppongi
35.663648, 139.730871
Lowest POI on this page (425 total), but useful as a bridge between Shibuya and Tokyo Tower. We used it as a cooldown pit stop—~2 min from either pin—rather than a long session anchor.
East Tokyo Pokemon GO Coordinates: Ueno, Kinshicho & Skytree
Ueno Park
35.7156, 139.7750
531 stops in our scan—the most of any park pin we tested. We joystick-walked the museum-and-pond loop at ~5 km/h and stayed inside the dense stop ring without teleporting again.
Kinshicho Station
35.6965, 139.8142
Less spoofing traffic than Ikebukuro in our tests. Solid 472 POI if you want an east-Tokyo session without the Shinjuku–Ikebukuro crowd.
Tokyo Skytree
35.7101, 139.8107
Only 30 Gyms—the fewest on this list—but pairs with Kinshicho after a ~2 min hop. We used it as the last stop on the East Sweep route, not a standalone raid anchor.
Tokyo Pokemon GO Cooldown Times Between Coordinates
In this part, we will show the logged waits after spinning or catching at the first pin, then jumping to the second. Pokémon GO measures cooldown from your last location-confirming action. For the full distance chart, see our Pokémon GO cooldown time guide.
| Jump | Distance | Wait before spin / catch |
|---|---|---|
| Shinjuku Gyoen → Kabukicho | ~0.4 km | 30 sec |
| Shinjuku Gyoen → Shinjuku Station East Exit | ~0.4 km | 30 sec |
| Akihabara → Ueno Park | ~2 km | 2 min |
| Shibuya → Shinjuku Gyoen | ~3.6 km | 3 min |
| Shinjuku Kabukicho → Ikebukuro | ~4 km | 3 min |
| Tokyo Tower → Roppongi | ~1.6 km | 2 min |
| Ueno Park → Kinshicho | ~4 km | 3 min |
| Kinshicho → Tokyo Skytree | ~2 km | 2 min |
| Shibuya → Ikebukuro | ~7.8 km | 5 min |
| Los Angeles → Shibuya | ~8,800 km | 120 min |
When we ran the Raid Marathon route, the countdown timer stopped us from spinning at Kabukicho too soon. PoKeep Location Changer has a built-in cooldown timer, it tells you how long you should wait between hops, just paste your first pin, follow each hop, and wait for the timer before you spin again.
How to Use Pokemon Go Tokyo Coordinates
This is the workflow we followed during testing:
Step 1. Paste a pin from the scoreboard into PoKeep and confirm the map marker matches the ward you expect—especially for 35.691230, 139.704140, which spawns at Shinjuku Station East Exit, not Asakusa.
Step 2. Play the session at that pin. Count what you actually need—raid lobbies, stop density, walking room—before jumping again.
Step 3. Check the jump ledger, wait out cooldown, then teleport to the next pin in your playbook.
