Honestly the best thing about this device for someone like myself who plays Pokémon go only on certain weekends. I commute a lot back and forth to work during the week and being able to leave this thing on in the background to spin stops and stock up on items during the week is nice so when I have time to go out for events during the weekend I have plenty of items.
"New Super Pokemon Go Plus+ U Lite"
That's very long to spell
Deluxe
& Knucles
Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry Series
Someone went to Nintendo Advertising Summer Camp….
They could've easily just have made this into a better PokèWalker and it would atleast serve some functionality.
for sure, i still got my pokewaler but shame it only holds 3 items, 3 pokemon
The pokeball plus is essentially a pokewalker
Wish they'd make pokewalker accessory with way more functionality than the original that wouldn't become obsolete as soon as the next game came out.
Thanks for opening it up. I was considering to do so myself and attach an NFC sticker with a Pikachu amiibo data in it. So it could double as an amiibo. Seems like it would fit.
Go++ is my new favorite programming language
I'll buy one if they go on sale. If it at least tied in to Let's Go or events or something else then it'd be a bit more worthwhile, but $55 is a bit much for a phone accessory imo.
Way over-engineered too, but I consider that a feature. This thing was made to be dropped--on pavement, not in toilets 😂
Yeah, I didn't pick one up until I saw one while on a trip to Japan where it was going for the equivalent of £30-35 instead of the usual £50. Especially as I wouldn't be using it with Pokémon Go, but it does remove the fire risk of having a phone which could get hot lying on my bed overnight.
It’s good for Pokémon Sleep. It sucks for Pokemon Go like walking around after a while it just stops catching it stop spinning. I have a third-party auto catcher and that works so much better. I paid probably 20 more dollars than the go plus and it has all the same features, and it’s probably a year and a half old now. You can turn the noise off and vibration off all I’m looking for now is a device that will emulate to go plus plus to auto throw great and ultra balls
Give recommendation cause I want one that can use great and ultra balls.
I think it is some issue with the game software. When I bought it, the catcher was working great but it stopped spinning stops or catching stuff when I moved at all after 2 days. It started after I started experimenting with the pokemon sleep functions and the press to use great/ultra ball. Uninstalled the game and reinstalled to reset all settings without touching any of those 2 features and now the catcher has been working great again for the past couple weeks.
Leave it to Pokémon to finally get me going to bed at a consistent time 😂
Exactly my thoughts 😂😂😂
I like mine. It works very well for Sleep. The game somehow got me to improve my sleep cycles better than my watch (though I really hate wearing a watch while sleeping anyways). It’s Go functionality seems good too. Mine rarely drops connection during exercise, though the auto throw is a bit weird. It seems like it only works on poke balls, but that’s probably a software problem.
auto catch uses pokeball all only
Pokémon Sleep is pretty lit, ngl. It’s a glorified sleep tracker but with tamagotchi and Pokémon elements.
Plus plus? That’s new to me. Had the regular Pokémon go + accessory. It regularly disconnected. When it would work, myself my GM and another supervisor would keep ours (or our cell phones) at the manager desk. Whichever of us was at the managers desk would catch Pokémon for each other during our work shifts. Good times.
I did play again from 2021-2022 walking 10-15 miles a day. Good times.
Good times.
Good times.
Good times
Why did you stop playing? The changes they made to raids?
@@user-vi4xy1jw7e funny story. Pokémon Go was my second full time job, I was just always on it and walking some where. My best friends had a bet, 60 days no cigarettes for one guy, no weed for another, (since I was sober but wouldn’t give up ciggs), mine was 60 days no Pokémon go.
That led me to pursue other things and what was a precursor to it all was the events/festivals last year. The one early in the year was so bugged and horrible. Free make up event in august for people who paid? No I’m good.
the big thing i dont like about pokemon go is that i have to use my phone, so i think this is a cool product, but $55 is insane for a small pokeball
Pikachu telling me I have crippling sleep apnea
i just started playing. The pokemon go plus plus was a game changer for me after 7 days of manually catching pokemon.
Thanks for the teardown. I’ve been using mine since day 01 and I like it quite a bit. Got a plastic case snuggly around it and a zip case to put that in to throw it in my bag all day. Glad to know it’s more quality inside than I thought! I still have an unopened Pokémon Go Plus and Pokeball Plus, so I’ll prob grab a spare one of these too someday. Hope the next device is smaller again. But knowing the battery is a joycon one, it makes sense they chose this form factor!
Ya but does it disconnect constantly and fail to throw balls/spin stops literally right next to it?
The pokewalker being hard to find some what matters because heart gold and soul silver are still being played. This not being able to be found 10-15 years from now won't because these apps will all be shut down as soon as they stop making money. What are you gonna do with it then?
I still play Pokémon go n was interested in Pokémon Sleep.. so I had put in a preorder for this through GameStop.. it definitely seems like a solid accessory.. just wish the magnet in the clip was a lil stronger haha
I wish the magnet was stronger to
I picked this up to use with the sleep app and Pokémon go. Only ever brought it out with me once because the huge button just gets pressed when sitting in my bag and puts it into sleep mode. So I find it pretty useless for Pokemon Go and only use it for the sleep app.
Mu biggest issue with the device itself is the lack of particular control for the lights, sound, and vibration. Sure, they can be fine in an outdoor setting or something, but for a sleep device it can be downright loud. Physical buttons or whatever for adjusting each of those things would be more than appreciated, or at _least_ easy access to a software solution (perhaps even with the option of it being dependant on time of day or something)
Actually wasnt making noise. It sings a lullaby even when you start. You can make the spunds disappear but not the vibration.
Except the sound control is spread across GO and Sleep, and not centrally controlled, making it more of an issue.
Hit the "Silent Mode" combo? Doesn't silence GO connect and disconnect sounds.
Thank you so much for taking the time to get clean shots of the PCB.
I like mine but you are right about the glossy finish. I already have a noticeable chunk of the red side rubbed off and a big red mark on my center button.
Tech Wave: For those who know nothing about what the hell Jon is talking about but still like the content
It’s entertaining I have no clue what he saying
the "bluetooth" chip is actually a SoC chip, it has the processor, ram, communications, and interfaces all in a neat little package
I could walk into a store and see multiple of these available
I think I'll wait for a Pokeball Plus + Plus + that'll have minimal connectivity to Pokemon Ladder and Stairs on the Switch 2.
Joking aside it's nice to see them continue the Pokemon devices but it's still a glorified bluetooth button in the end of the day.
Pokeball + was fun for awhile till support started to taper off and the soft plastics wore out, bluetooth kinda got weaker too.
What I want is more akin to a Digimon device or DC VMU Chao Adventure with more meaningful features and connections.
I was wondering how much flash memory it has. I didn’t connect it to my Pokemon sleep app for about 5 days while still taking new measurements every night and it uploaded all of my data when I connected. I wonder how much space I used lol
See, i think adding a U would actually have been smart this time
Pokemon go + u, as in you, it would have actually fit this time lol
Reminds me of the pokewalker for some reason
Question I am wanting to know is if there is a microphone. As Pokémon sleep has the ability to track sounds while sleeping when using your phone. But when using my Pokémon go plus + I don’t believe it does such in listening. But if there is a microphone perhaps it just has yet to be enabled through an update?
There isn't a microphone in the plus +
I think he would’ve made mention of a microphone if he had seen one, but I’m just guessing.
@@samuelturner6076 he didn’t even mention that there was a speaker. I know we all seen it and knows it’s there. Seemed like the focus was on the antenna and the main board and the battery. Which is why I commented as I am not gonna open mine up to look. Could have a microphone that is just not functional. But meh. If it did I’d rather it not listen to me sleep. That a bit over my comfort level. But Pokémon sleep and the go plus+ for the past month now have improved my sleep and daily energy level.
I have one and I think it’s really good and holds a good amount of charge, I find if I’m driving I will still catch Pokémon at a much faster (car) speed and spin poker stops etc what’s not to like
You know go++ comes from the spoofing app they sued and shut down pokemon go++. That's why. Sort of irony.
I'm having trouble finding anywhere I even looked up the the chip number you mentioned in your video but I cannot find out whether this device has overcharge protection so that for instance if you left it on the charger too long it would stop charging at a certain percentage etc etc but I can't find that information I can't find it on Nintendo's site I can't find it on anything about that chip that you mentioned maybe I'm just looking up in the wrong spot
First there was C++ then there was Pokemon Go PLus+
4:35(ish) -- listening to this in the background while i finish 'waking up', at first i thought the JoyCon Battery might end up making the Plus+ drift...like, "A Wild Pidgey appeared! [throws Pokeball] alright! a Rattata was caught!"
Thanks for this video, my plus+ can’t charge, I want to change component, but I can’t find Ckp ti288 from which supplier
I’m curious if you’d be able to put it back together now?
I'll wait for the Pokémon go plus + plus 😂
But does it play doom?
Yea I am definitely de-soldering that fucking rumble motor
Funny that the only joy con component is the battery, and ironically having drift issues on this device would actually be a plus to help get extra distance bonuses.
It using joycon batteries is very reassuring so if for whatever reason it dies finding a replacement will be easy because the Switch is one of the most popular systems ever made.
Love it, especially the sleep function with GO. Get 2 daily hearts with my buddy, so it’s even quicker to get friendship up. Plus the auto catching and spinning.
Can i connect it to different accounts or I have to „delete“ it from my original account ?
I'm gonna skip this one and wait for the "New Pokemon Go Plus++ & Knuckles"
I prefer having a small fire hazard on bed than my phone burning its battery lifespan for Pokemon Sleep
What are you on about?
Phone is bigger fire hazard 😂😂
the yellow strap is easily to lose, i think it's supposed to be a pillow clip while you sleep with it
My PokeWalker survived the washing machine twice and I have no idea how! All I had to do was to change the battery after an accidental wash and it started to work again
I have been loving the POG++ I see it sometimes not tracking the sleep super well but I am unsure if thats bc i am putting it on my bed properly but still love it for sleep and for POG
My buddy and I both bought them. Mine has difficulty with the sleep recorder not working even though I'm doing it correctly. It is very glitchy maybe because I bought one of the first batch models. It stops catching far more often that the Go Plus did. It doesn't operate based on settings well either. Such as if you mark it to spin stops but not auto catch... it won't spin stops unless I turn the auto catcher back on. Also, when we set it to use Great balls it will after a time set itself back to red poke balls without warning even though I have over a hundred or more Great balls. If you don't need it I recommend waiting until they fix the many issues. I use mine because I'm disabled and whether working the wheels on a wheelchair or driving, I can't watch my screen while in motion. It doesn't live up to the Niantic hype.
New Pokemon Go Plus + U Ultra Arcade Super Edition Featuring Dante from Devil May Cry
my only issue i have with it is accessing the controls in pogo. I change my settings often due to the frequency i play so i constantly toggle Pokémon catching on and off to replenish my stash of balls. Having to click through the menu so deep to get to the settings is kind of dumb. i wish i could just hold the pokeball symbol or something to get the menu to pop up instead of having to click through 3 different ones every time.
I was able to get one day one, only to give it away to my brother. I was sad to find my phone is two generations too old to use the device with PKMN go. My brother really liked it to the Pokéball plus.
I probably won't buy one since I'm not much into PoGo these days but repairability on that thing is crazy.
Just what do you do with this oddly shaped battery?
Why isn't mine turning on.
Pokewalker put it though the wash…. Oh god I feel seen :o
The PoGo++ doesn't count sleep if it doesn't move enough regularly during sleep. So that is one sensitive exeleromiter.
Why does this exist... it's just a wireless button that can do everything your phone does, why do I want to carry 2 gadgets?
Money!
You can do those things without touching the phone
@@MKAnjoswe've come to point where we no longer want to touch our phones anymore. What an age. Lol
Coz it’s probably not aimed at adults…but kids. If you’re over 15 and wanting one of these but whingeing about it….re-evaluate your life.
It is probably better having that lying in your bed while you sleep vs. having your phone, while charging, lying in your bed(pokemon sleep use it to meassure your sleep).
Almost tuned out to this one. Anything you tear apart is always interesting though.
Used mine today at Go Fest NY
Clickbait title for what is essentially a teardown with no unannounced features in it.
Enjoyed the content but title is misleading.
I wanted a Sleep Pokeball but was sticker Shocked.. welp not now I guess XD
People still play Pokemon Go? I thought that game died out years ago. (it certainty killed alot of phone batteries, including mine)
Joy-Con battery and Switch Speaker, just like the Game&Watchs
I can't see this being usable in 10yrs or more as the app would likely no longer be around.
I love the LED's they are nice and bright, at night I press the button and use it as a flashlight I wish it didnt flash tho.
Can’t wait for Nintendo Switch U Too
Its not waterproofed?!? What if i want to catch a water Pokemon?!?😅😅😅😅
New Nintendo Pokémon go plus+ plus expansion pack and knuckles i lite XL SP mini
can't find one still, in Las Vegas
This is just a tomagachi with extra steps.
My Walmart had a bunch of them
I sent mine back and got a refund. Not being able to turn the rumble off was a deal breaker. Sure It could have been modified physically, however as an end user, I shouldn't have to do that.
I also felt the initial marketing was deceptive. I have other auto catchers which do a better job, but lacked the ability to use other pokeballs. This one claimed it could, however what they didn't say at the time was that it was limited to pressing the button to catch, rather than just the auto catcher.
Usability wise, the sleep function didn't work well, it wouldn't always track, so you missed out on an entire night of information, and you would lose out in Pokemon Go.
At least the sync functionality in Pokemon Go worked well. 👍
What auto catcher do you recommend
Megacom Dual Catchmon if you are running 2 accounts. Its quick and quiet.
Otherwise you can use the older Go-tcha Evolve if you are running a single account. Its much smaller and cheaper.@@xxxEvilPrototypexxx
Pokemon go plus plus squared
"X Plus +" is still leagues better than "New X".
I love my pokeball
Meh...
Now put it back together
This is one of the most goofiest accessories I've ever seen.
Can I get that I'll buy it
I really liked the Pokeball Plus, as I used it for Switch and then a ton with Go. Go, being the cesspool that it's become the past year or so has me way less interested in this than I thought I would have been. Ah well, thus is the current state of Pokémon.
Wow.😃
More Milked Pokémon stuff. It just keeps going and people still buy into Pokémon whatever it is. They just consume everything Pokémon and it just gets worse from my perspective 😂
PoGO player here. Not buying one. I like my gotcha.
Him: you know pokewalkers from the hg and ss era are hard to find now a days
Me: yeah My family went through probably 6 or more pokewalkers back in the heartgold and soul silver era.
Him: warning this one doesn't look to be water proofed in any way.
Me: oh no
Him: i don't know why but we got a lot of parents coming in with the old one's because they went through the washing machine
Me: *thinking of the 6 dead pokewalkers* yeaaaaah all of those were lost to the washer. But a few made it through a few times before never turning back on again!
They were left in pockets okay? When Nintendo names something a pocket walker they should not be surprised when it is forgotten in that pocket by kids 😂
😎 Tech Wave 🌊
I think it's a good device,minus the lack of ability to disable vibration and the lack of ability to toggle brightness on the LED. Both of those could be added in an update, at least I hope. It's on the more expensive side but as a pokemon go player it's well worth it being able to toss in my bag and automatically spin pokestops and catch pokemon while riding my bike, for example.
For Pokemon sleep, it's way more convenient to have this as opposed to my phone being used, although I've had issues with accidentally pressing the main button in my sleep, which ends sleep tracking, and also it has fallen off my bed a couple times. Most of the issues are definitely software fixable, so hopefully they address them and then it's a great pickup.
Do you have it clipped on your pillow using the strap accessory? For me, it’s secure enough even though it uses a magnet.
@@Antejolt that's a good idea. I'll try that. I didn't use the clip because I immediately noticed how easily it falls off. The magnet isn't strong. But it may work for sleeping
Need to know
Misleading
Nice~
The what?
If you struggle to fall asleep and want to sleep well. Lie on your back. Stop moving around. That's it. Thank me later.
Woah I can’t believe Nintendo didn’t tell us that the interior lights are RGB 😮😮😮 Thank you so much for this video that’s totally not clickbait 👍
I see no need for this & I have x2 pokeball plus.
One of my friends has though.
157th comment
The fact it doesnt have replacable batteries that i can then use rechargable Triple AAAs is just pathetic and makes this thing not worth anyones time.
Being able to have MULTIPLE sets of batteries incase they die for an event vs charging the thing and not using it for a few hrs while it charges back up is just plain stupid.
if u want a Decent Auto Catching n spinning device the duomon is by far the best. PLUS u can connect it to two accounts at once. So u and your SO can say go on a walk and u only have to carry one gotcha for the both of you.
Recommend a cover and dont use the clip it will break the pokemon Go + +
for that peski algo
