Pokemon Let's Go is now out and the Poke Ball Plus is an accessory that is supposed to make the game more immersive, and it also gives you Mew. Today we're going to take the Poke Ball Plus apart and see what makes it work inside.

This thing appears to be the same size as an unactivated Pokeball from the anime (they hit the center to prime/activate it, at which point it grows to throwing size). _Neat._

@ElysetheEevee 5 жыл бұрын

I think someone did the math somewhere I saw and it is actually around 20% larger than the dormant PokeBall state in the anime. Then again, the anime kind of changes the scale of it in its unenlarged state over time. At first they were teeny, now they're a bit heftier. Make of it what you will, I suppose.

The regular joy cons will give you carpal tunnel, because the analogue sticks are directly above and below the face buttons, instead of more inwards so your thumb can swoop down to them better. It's the same reason why the psp is so awful to hold, but the small psp go is much comfier.

I've repaired phones and stuff before but I have never seen something so delicate that it scared me to take it apart. Maybe it's just something about this toy and what it is or represents to me.

@TheMythey 5 жыл бұрын

There IS a speaker in there! It makes sounds when you capture a Pokemon, and it plays the Pokemon's cry. Right before you receive Mew via Mystery Gift, it rumbles and you can hear the Mew's cry, it's such a nice touch! Also, like someone else commented, it plays the Pokemon Center jingle when you plug it in to charge. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! It ALSO doubles as a Pokemon GO plus accessory; it connects to your Pokemon GO app via your phone's Bluetooth connection, so there's that piece of tech in there too.

@b_silver1926 5 жыл бұрын

After playing quite a bit with the pokeball and the joycon, i can say this. The joycon has more buttons and makes it easier to navigate the menus and stuff. However, the poke ball feels so much better! It has much better rumble and just,feels really good in your hand. Its so satisfying feeling your pokemon get captured with each shake of the rumble. With the joycon the rumble is still there, but it just doesnt feel as good. So your preference depends on if you want better menu navigation or a better feeling controller

I enjoy playing with both joy-con and pokeball plus. Neither are really perfect. The motion controls can be a little wonky at times leading you to waste a few pokeballs. You use the button on top as a back (B) button and joystick as the select (A) button. You wiggle the controller in place of the Y button. The biggest issue I have with the pokeball plus is when I try to select something buy clicking on the analog, I sometimes accidentally press a direction at the same time. Definitely takes some getting used to but still pretty cool.

I did get it to connect to my phone as well (don’t save the device to your phone, causes connectivity issues within Pokémon GO, it worked right away for me after I removed it from remembered devices). Successfully caught a few Pokémon with the Poké Ball Plus. Haven’t tried it for spinning PokéStops yet though. Which says it will do automatically as long as there is a Pokémon inside.
