Everything You Need To Know About Pokemon Go Plus

Please feel free to ask your question(s) in the comment section, this post will be updated as new questions come up. 

What is Pokémon Go Plus?

It’s a small Bluetooth device that links to your smartphone. You can wear it on your wrist or clip it to your clothing and it will vibrate and light up when in-game events take place, such as a Pokémon appearing nearby.

What else can it do?

It can actually catch Pokémon for you without getting your phone out of your pocket or bag. When it lights up you can press its button to automatically attempt to catch the creature. If you’re successful it will light up to let you know you’ve caught it. You can only use standard Poké Balls and catch Pokémon you’ve caught before with this method.

Won’t it drain my battery even more?

It could do, but The Pokémon Company says it will use a low energy Bluetooth connection, plus you can keep your game in sleep mode, saving energy from it having to illuminate again.

Is it out yet?

It was originally scheduled for release in August, but Nintendo recently announced it was delaying the launch until September. No specific reason was given for this at the time.

So, Nintendo is making these?

Yes, while Nintendo is only a part-owner of The Pokémon Company and investor in Niantic, it is the company handling these accessories, which should prove to be very popular and useful. The delay of the launch may prove critical though.
