'Pokemon Go' Plus Latest News & Update: Its Good and Bad Sides; Is Hatching Eggs Possible with this Pokemon Game Wearable?

"Pokemon Go" Plus is a much-anticipated game accessory for catching Pokemon fast and easy. This gadget will help players with their search for monsters and catch them without the need to constantly look in their smartphones.

"Pokemon Go" Plus is connected to the game via Bluetooth and players only need to turn it on and navigation will be activated for easy tracking of various types of Pokemon. It is worn on the wrist like a watch so using it is hassle-free as well. Moreover, the gadget can help save mobile phone's battery while playing since the "Pokemon Go" Plus will do the hunting and catching instead.

How it Works

When a Pokémon appears close by, the light in the Pokémon GO Plus will blink. In addition, the gadget will automatically vibrate and blink to inform the player that he or she is passing by a Pokestop.

To catch the Pokemon, just press down the designated button on the Pokémon GO Plus and the Poke Ball will be thrown at the monster. If the player caught a Pokémon, the gadget will indicate successful catch by vibrating and blinking.

Pokemon Go Plus Pitfalls

Although the gadget is nice to use, there are some drawbacks to watch out for. It seems that capturing monsters that you do not have yet is not possible so in this case, you must use your smartphone to catch new types of Pokemon.

Also, another catch is that the gadget does not work like a pedometer, thus hatching eggs is not doable. Some players explained on Reddit that hatching eggs requires tracking of steps when walking but "Pokemon Go" Plus cannot measure the distance or count the steps taken, hence egg hatching is unlikely to happen using the gadget.

Meanwhile, the "Pokemon Go" Plus is coming to the market any time soon. It will be sold at $34.99 but there is a chance that this will go down as many have cancelled their pre-order transactions after learning it cannot function as a pedometer which will help in hatching eggs.
