Outside of the Android model where it does the auth for you upon request and only hands the app a token, I don't really see how you don't open yourself to this attack.
iOS really doesn't provide a way for other vendors in an inner ring of consumer trust and power to deal with this. While I'm not a fan of the decision to give full access to Pokemon Go, I didn't find it surprising that it did so on iOS and I had to make a conscious decision to "trust" Pokemon Go as part of the process.
