The new Pokémon GO Plus+ is a catching gadget that automatically catches monsters for you. Unlike its predecessor, you can even choose the balls. First images comparing sizes have now surfaced.
What kind of device is this? In February 2023, the Pokémon team introduced the new catching gadget. Unlike the GO Plus, which catches Pokémon or spins stops at the push of a button, the new Plus+ is supposed to be able to act automatically. You can even choose the balls it uses to catch in Pokémon GO.
A user on Reddit has now shared new images of the Plus+ showing how large it is compared to the predecessor.
