Just got mine this week. It was autocatching at around 25-33% catch rate and quite a bit of pokemon were fleeing which was a little disappointing. I did the mod to it. Now it can autocatch with the ultra/great balls and the catch rate increased to around 75-85% Made a huge difference and definitely worth it.
idk if they changed the rate after the autocatch great ball/ultra ball fix but my catch rate with normal pokeballs is at like 80% and if I manually catch pokemon with great/ultra balls my catch rate is like 80-90%, I love this device so much and it tracks my sleeping and types of sleeping as well as any other features that some phone apps that charge a $25-50/yearly subscription offer. The battery life is amazing for me too.
Having the phone locked and driving the 22 miles from work to home I caught 77 Pokémon and 2 of them were shiny. Most times it would take hundreds of catches just to get a shiny and this was merely hit or miss. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@SyNKevN there are so many. The ones that hurt the most were chikorita, dratini,unown O, wooper (before the com day), phantump, drifloon, murkrow, and worst of all, TWO shiny Halloween event pikachus. After the first one I turned off my autocatcher. Decided to get something to eat so turned it on. And of course while I’m ordering food a shiny pikachu appears.
@@Jazzamonroe I am so glad I dont care about shineys, back in the day (151 tcg days) there was no such thing... it was called a holo, but a digital shiney one (is it even any dif? ) means nothing since you want 100% iv more than anything.
@@OnceShy_TwiceBitten I mean, if u just want pure strength.. i guess get 6 good pokis for every element and some for meta pvp? Thats just your playstyle mate. If people enjoy having their digital pets in different color, which makes them more rare from the rest where u catch a bunch of those. Why not? Also how is that not a flex, just like a holo having your strongest or even just your favorite pokemon in a special design!? I guess this "OG tcg player" never had their shiny gyarados on their gameboy :D Edit: Theres only a little bit of content where you would actually WANT the 100%. So actually i care less about that than if its shiny even tho i like strength too :)
That would be convenient. I'm just happy for the Ability to throw Greats and Ultras now (even if only via Button Throwing) I got it for not only for Go. But for Sleep as well (And that Nightcap Snorlax is adorable)
It's good for many many things... If you can't really play com day or any spawn boosting event, set it to ultra balls and hope for the best. It's been great for me, regardless of the Pokémon or Shinys that have fled... Thoughts on it months after initial review?
true, the amount of items and pokemon you get, far outweigh the ones that run away. At least for me this is how I felt. I also live and work in locations that have more than 2 pokestops at all times so it really maximizes the potential that way.
doesn't it do poke stops automatically? So why bother clicking? I wish it didnt vibrate so fucking much, it wears the battery down... is annoying etc. The knock off versions are better cus they dont come with vibration, or rather they allow it to be toggled.
I wish there was a way to change which Pokemon talked out of it, instead of just the default Pikachu voice. Like Pokemon, we get it Pikachu is the mascot, but you don't gotta shove him down our throats XD
Hey great video and I appreciate your take on it. I honestly can’t see myself playing the game without the go plus. I’ve been using an auto catcher for a couple years and it is a great help. To summarize great video.
Really useful video! I was just wondering if you can switch off the vibration for Pokemon Go? in the main settings (3:16), that's an option but I guess it may not apply to the Pokemon Go Plus+ device..?
I made a account 12-16-2016 and was curious and downloaded the game again last week. So many new things on the game now.
@@Nene_760 yes they are always adding new things!
@heyitsjsomp it's gonna be my new hobby lol I was lucky enough to have a pokestop in my front yard so I can just spin it every 5 minutes 😆
@@Nene_760 omg that is great luck!!

Pro tip. Never look at the journal. Lost shiny unown, eevee, dratini, and many others because of it during go fest lol.
That's the price you pay for convenience. Now tell us the Shinys you did get with the plus, lol.

Super helpful info! I feel like they could easily add an option to auto give a pokemon a certain berry to increase the catch rate
Omg if you could add which berry to throw that would be so helpful!

Oh goody a review for pokemon go plus. ❤
Hope you enjoy 😊

Wow, that WAS an honest review! Good job!
Thank you! 😊
Love both of mine. I modded one and left the other stock for Pokémon go it’s the goat

I understand the feeling. I personally don't mind Pikachu speaking to me while connecting or disconnecting.
Omg yes like if it was your buddy from pokemon go was the voice!
@@heyitsjsomp Yeah like for example, in GO my partner is Eevee, it would be cool if the Plus+ emitted Eevee cries.
@@AirknightTails Fair enough.
@@cynderrrrrrr yes what a great idea!
I've had the 2016 pokemon go plus but is this a good upgrade auto catcher for a beginner?
I would say they provide about the same quality. It has been awhile since I have used the original plus tho
Hey great video and I appreciate your take on it. I honestly can’t see myself playing the game without the go plus. I’ve been using an auto catcher for a couple years and it is a great help. To summarize great video.
Thank you! It's honestly all a personal choice people all play it differently. Also I recently used it and it let a shiny get away 😭
I haven’t had one shiny encounter since I got this… dose it lessen the chance or something?
@BrandenJames-ud7ow i do not believe so, I used it once during a spotlight hour and it did encounter a shiny but it ran away
Really useful video! I was just wondering if you can switch off the vibration for Pokemon Go? in the main settings (3:16), that's an option but I guess it may not apply to the Pokemon Go Plus+ device..?
Mhh I've never actually tired if I'm being honest I'm sure you could
I have one and the vibration is not optional. The only thing about it I don't like.
@@brianbrewer2909watch a tutorial you can get the vibration out if u cut a wire inside it
Something tells me you’re a Pokémon fan. Not quite sure what it is lol
Wow not sure how you figured that out lol
either that or just has a really specific taste in Animalistic plushies
@@millymazilla 🤣🤣
@@heyitsjsomp hey we don't judge here hahaha you fly your hyper specific animalistic plushy collector flag high gurl
Is there a way to release pokemon as soon as u catch it with plus plus, or do u manually have to go into your phone afterwards to release them?
I believe you can only do that manually on your phone
I believe you can only do that manually on your phone
Oh i see thank you!
Mam! Irregardless isn't a word... I don't think.... 🤷
Pokémon go plus plus is worth it! (IMO)
i loved listening to your voice without any background music
sad 'n cute.
Hello, does Pokémon GO Plus + throw balls super or perfectly?
I'm not sure exactly what kind of throws it produces, but it does tend to miss. I have missed a shiny before
No, I believe it is "Nice" non curveballs. So biggest circle possible. Center straight throw.
Is there any way to use pinap berry ??
Not that I'm aware of
Is the Pokémon go plus plus good to use
Watch the video I full to make that opinion 😊
I’m home go Pokémon player. OK I’m trying to get to level 50. I’m on level 43.
Should I buy the Pokémon go plus plus is a good to use in Pokémon go
Did you watch the video?
Another pro tip. There’s a mod video for this device on UA-cam. Makes it so you can auto catch using great and ultra balls.
Link ?
I can tell you are from the mid west lol :)
