I have set my google play store to canada and connected with a VPN + registered with a canadian gmail account
but all i can do is click register/unregister
anyone done this successfully yet outside of canada?
Unable to do anything but register; using nordvpn.
I tried doing the same steps but still unavailable. I think we actually need to swap Play Store region adding a payment method and eventhough I’m not sure this works if you try it will block region swap for 365 days.
I think our only hope is waiting the APK and then use VPN, as I did with Pokemon Masters beta.
I can, restart google play with VPN ! Then you will success
Thank you so much for this info! 
And have lots of fun!!!
I actually even set the play store region to canada but I still have only the register/unregister button 
True, hopefully sometime this week!
You’re actually playing? I can get to the ‘register’ page in the play store, but not download.
I’m still just registered for now. Hoping it will let me download soon!
how do u restart Gplay? been stuck on registered for 5 days now. havent turned off my vpn either.
