Pokémon GO: Pokéball Plus shows new feature

The new Poké Ball Plus has a special feature that makes playing Pokémon GO significantly easier. The ball automatically spins PokéStops. That sounds really useful for many trainers.

If you don’t want to spin PokéStops on your phone, the new Poké Ball Plus might be a good option for you. Because, as the official website of Pokémon Japan states, the ball automatically takes care of spinning stops.

How does the gadget work?

If a Pokémon is in the ball, it automatically spins stops

What kind of ball is this? The Poké Ball Plus is a gadget that appeared alongside the console games Pokémon Let’s GO Pikachu/Evoli. This gadget can be used as a controller for playing Let’s GO Pikachu/Evoli on the Nintendo Switch.

You can also purchase it separately and use it for Pokémon GO.

In combination with Pokémon GO, the ball functions similarly to the GO Plus. It vibrates when Pokémon are nearby and tracks the distance you cover.

This is how the automatic spinning of PokéStops works: As hypeable reports, the ball has another feature that was not previously known. If you load a Pokémon from Pokémon Let’s GO into the ball, the automatic spinning function is activated.

If you visit a PokéStop with a Pokémon in the Poké Ball Plus, you don’t have to spin it manually. The ball does that automatically.

And what if the ball is empty? If you don’t have a Pokémon in the ball, it only vibrates when visiting a stop. You then need to press the button to spin the stop. Just like with GO Plus.

What the fans say about the Poké Ball Plus

On Reddit, user kokong7 writes, “There’s a lot of negativity about this device. I’m really looking forward to it, especially with this feature.”

Twitter user CattyMintgum writes, “Oh man, pay-to-win, right? No, seriously, that sounds useful. I miss 10,000 PokéStops a day.”

Overall, players are excited about this feature, which will greatly simplify playing Pokémon GO. Now you’ll miss no more PokéStops. The downside is that the Poké Ball Plus is larger than a GO Plus.

Comparison to the Pokémon GO Plus

Similar features: The functions of both gadgets are almost the same. Both devices ensure that you don’t have to hold your smartphone in your hand while playing. Catching Pokémon and spinning stops are done with a simple press of a button.

The automatic spinning of PokéStops is something that the Pokémon GO Plus does not support out of the box. So there is a significant advantage with the Poké Ball Plus.
