About this deal
Currently, there is a Silent Mode feature but that is only for Pokémon Sleep functionalities and to silence the Pikachu sounds, but that doesn’t disable the vibration and lights. Hopefully in a future update this can be changed. Exclusive Special Research takes too long A monster that would be new to your line-up? Sorry, you’ll still have to get your phone out to snare the critter. Pokémon Go made a surprise appearance at Apple’s iPhone 7 and Apple Watch Series 2 launch event on September 7. Certain smart devices may not work with Pokémon GO Plus + even if they meet minimum system requirements.
You’ve been able to buy one for a while, or rather, Nintendo has been happy to take your hard-earned cash and promise to send you one at some point.
Customise your Trainer
Gameplay wise, it appears to work in a similar way to the hit mobile game that took over the world in the summer of 2016. You complete a sleep style dex instead of a Pokédex over time, just by sleeping. The longer you sleep, the higher your score.
The small gadget features an LED which flashes when a Pokémon or Pokéstop is nearby, accompanied by a vibration. Better still, if it’s a Pokémon you’ve already caught, you can catch it without having to access your phone – just press the button in the centre of the device. Pokémon GO Plus + is a new device that uses Bluetooth® Low Energy technology to link with the Pokémon Sleep and Pokémon GO smart device apps!The news follows Nintendo’s high-profile slot at the recent iPhone 7 and Apple Watch Series 2 launch recently. With Pokémon GO, use this accessory to spin PokéStops or throw Poké Balls automatically (and Great Balls and Ultra Balls too!). You can catch Pokémon without even pressing a button! Linking the Pokémon GO Plus + with Pokémon GO will also let you take on Special Research to catch a Snorlax with a nightcap. The Auto-Catch and Auto-Spin features are very handy and uncommon for other catching devices. When moving and you can’t play Pokémon GO it’s a great way to maximise catches and get items easily.
