[[How to Datamine Pokemon Go]]  aka How to Extract and Decode GAME MASTER File. This is an easy and simple guide for anyone interested in decoding the GAME_MASTER file and exploring it on their own.
 
 
 
==1. What is the GAME_MASTER File?==
 
In short, the GM file is a configuration file that [[Pokemon Go]] downloads when it’s started. It’s a file that defines a huge amount of the game: [[moves]], [[DPS]] values, costs, requirements, rewards, etc… It’s a very important file and a majority of Pokemon GO websites use it to create accurate Tier lists, move sets, etc. Game Master is downloaded from Niantic’s servers once and saved on your local Android device, as it’s a rather big file. Pokemon GO Hub has devised a utility to decode the GAME_MASTER into a human readable format.
