Pokémon Center – NSB Guide

NSB supports the following regions for PokémonCenter (based on Billing profile assigned to task):

US, CA, UK, and AU (Auto checkout not working for AU).

Task Creation

1. Input:

   Enter the item PID (or item URL).

   Note: Safe mode supports Multi-inputs.

    

2. Size:

   Keep size field empty.

    

3. Proxies:

   High quality proxies are required, you may use ISPs or Residentials (DCs almost have no chances of passing).

    

4. Start On Queue:

   If enabled, all you have to do is create your tasks. Now, once the queue is live, NSB will auto-start these tasks.

    

5. Skip Browser on Failure:

   This option will skip opening a browser on declines automatically, instead it will show the following option to open the browser manually:

6. Click Advanced to enter Delays (keep them at default unless we provide other instructions).

PKC Modes

1. Safe Mode:

   • NSB will open a browser for each task to pass queue.

   • Once passed queue, the task will close the browser and continue to complete checkout.

   • The number of browsers opened simultaneously can be configured in NSB settings tab (Browser settings, Browser Limit field).

2. Queue Monitor Mode (Linked to Request and Safe Mode):

   • When running this mode, the task will keep checking if the queue is live.

   • It won’t checkout the item, it will just keep monitoring for queue.

   • Once it detects that the queue is live, it will ping Safe (if Wait for Queue ping is checked) and Requests tasks to start.

3. Request Mode (Linked to Queue Monitor Mode):

   • Task won’t open a browser.

   • It will pass queue and complete the checkout via request flow.

   • These tasks will be waiting for the Queue Monitor task to trigger that the queue is live.

   • It’s worthless to run request mode tasks without having a queue monitor task.

   • It’s the only mode where you can enter multiple inputs per task (separated by ;).

      

Queue Monitor and Request Modes are closely related and work together:

1. Running Queue Monitor tasks without corresponding Requests tasks is ineffective.

2. Request tasks require active Queue Monitor tasks; otherwise, these tasks will never enter queue.

    

    

Setup For Drops

1. Create your tasks with empty input (unless you already know what item is dropping).

2. The best setup is as follows:

   • 10-20 safe mode tasks (more or less, depends on your machine specs).

   • 1 Queue monitor task.

   • As many Request Mode tasks as you want.

3. Start tasks once queue is live on the site.

4. Once you know what the SKU dropping is, you may inject it by using (ctrl+I) or by clicking the pen icon in top right corner then clicking inject input.

5. NSB will try to solve captchas automatically, but you have to keep an eye on the opened browser as you may need to solve captcha challenges (GeeTest or H-Captcha).

6. For safe tasks, once a task manages to pass queue, browser will close automatically emptying a spot for other waiting tasks.

7. After passing queue, the task will attempt to checkout (except for AU region). In case the task failed to complete checkout, a browser will be opened so you can manually complete it.

8. Resis are recommended on PKC.

    

Automation

In order to simplify running on drops when you might be unavailable to create tasks manually, NSB offers PKC Queue Automation.

Simply create an automation card under the PokémonCenter group in NSB Automation tab (one card is sufficient) and keep NSB open. Once the queue starts, NSB will automatically create and start tasks using the provided automation details (number of tasks, billing profile/group, proxies etc…).

1. Tasks will be created with empty input.

2. Once the item is live, navigate to the #pokemoncenter-filtered channel on NSB Discord.

3. Click on the “Webhook Mass Change Link” button.

4. NSB will automatically update all your task inputs with the correct item SKU, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.

    

Note: Getting requeued is normal when running tasks.
