Trainers, we have an incoming message from Professor Willow: “I’ve noticed an alarming number of reports from Trainers who have found PokéStops that look…discolored?” Trainers, please report any PokéStops that look different with #PokemonGO. pic.twitter.com/oxpXR7ZlSm

There seem to be unconfirmed reports that PoGo’ers are unable to locate Team Rocket pokemon stops since 12 PM Pacific / 3 PM Eastern, today. While there was no in-game announcement of enabling the Team Rocket encounters, the official @PokemonGoApp Twitter account did tweet out some teasers:
After taking a closer look with Spark, Professor Willow reported that Pokémon with some sort of mysterious aura were hanging around these discolored PokéStops. We hope they can get to the bottom of this! pic.twitter.com/MfzWa73WPN

Confirmed: Niantic tweets out that Team Rocket Invasion pokestops were not showing up.
Professor Willow has noticed that sightings of discolored PokéStops and Pokémon enshrouded in a shadowy aura have…suddenly stopped? 🤔 🔍 Hmm… This phenomenon keeps getting more troubling the more we investigate it. 😨
