Semi-automatic creation of Pokémon Trainer Club accounts, with prompt for manual CAPTCHA entry.

Pokemon Trainer Club Account Creator 2

Script heavily based on the original PTCAccount, by jepayne1138.

Description

Semi-automatic creation of PTC accounts, with manual user intervention required for CAPTCHA input. This script is built on Selenium, which utilises a browser for automation rather than pure HTTP requests.

Installation

This script runs on Selenium using ChromeDriver. See the Google documentation for platform specific installation.

OSX Installation: brew install chromedriver

Once ChromeDriver is installed, install PTCAccount2 from Github using pip:

pip install git+https://github.com/Kitryn/PTCAccount2.git

NOTE: Google Chrome (the browser) must be installed for this script to work!

Use

Command line interface:

After installing the package run 'ptc2' from the terminal to create a new account. Optional parameters include --username, --password, and --email. Use --help for more commands and command line interface help.

Example 1 (Create entirely random new account):

> ptc2
Account successfully created.
  Username:  BcZvTnlTMwHsa6v
  Password:  WgZApVU5edTBMCs
  Email   :  [email protected]

Example 2 (Create a new account with specified parameters):

> ptc2 --username=foo --password=bar [email protected]
Account successfully created.
  Username:  foo
  Password:  bar
  Email   :  [email protected]

Extra options:

• --birthday: Specify a birthday. Must be between 1910 and 2002. Must be in YYYY-MM-DD format.
• --compact: Compact the output to "username:password"

As package:

import the ptcaccount2 package to create new accounts in your own scripts:

>>> import ptcaccount2
>>> ptcaccount2.random_account()
{"username": "BcZvTnlTMwHsa6v", "password": "WgZApVU5edTBMCs", "email": "[email protected]"}

Specifying your own data:

>>> ptcaccount2.random_account(username=<your data>, password=<your data>, email=<your data>, birthday=<your data>)

Note: birthday must be a string in YYYY-MM-DD format.

Troubleshooting

OSX installation

Some OSX users may run into an issue which points to an error occurring in line: create_account driver = webdriver.Chrome() This may be related to brew install chromedriver installing a 32bit version rather than 64bit version.

To fix, see this issue to make brew install the 64bit version of ChromeDriver.
