There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
But at the end of the day, item is in like new condition and it came with Mew so no complain here.
It will also have a 50/50 shot of catching pokemon using only one ball, and it won't use ultra or great balls.
It is pretty mediocre as a switch controller, but I feel like that is pretty obvious from the get go. It is usable, but can make Pokemon Lets Go Eevee less enjoyable.

I got a silicone cover for mine that doesn't call attention to it when in public or out walking the dog.
ALSO: Mew is only obtainable ONCE with this EVEN if you delete your save file and try to reuse it on a fresh save. So once Mew has been traded over, that's it. It's like a one time use dlc code. So second hand Pokeball plus's are out of the question if you for sure want the Mew with this.
I get the reasoning behind this, so people dont just try to farm Mew, but I think its pretty ridiculous. They've effectively locked Mew behind a $50 pay wall. If you have two kids and they share a switch, either only one gets a Mew or you have to pay another $50 for a controller you already have that isnt worth it in the first place.
Also pretty ridiculous considering the save file situation on the Switch (no backups even with Nintendo Online with this game.) If your system dies or is lost, the file goes with it and along with that heartbreak it adds insult to injury that you'd have to buy a brand new Pokeball Plus just to get a Mew back. Bad move Nintendo.

La Pokeball me llegó 5 días antes de lo esperado, el servicio de envío me sorprendió para ser un producto importado a México. La caja llegó en excelentes condiciones, venía la Pokeball en su caja protegida con los colchones de aire.
En cuanto al producto;
La caja de la Pokeball venía intacta y con sus sellos de seguridad, la Pokeball sin ningún problema, la quise encender pero había leído que llegaban completamente muertas de batería, la cargue por 3 horas y encendió sin ningún problema.
Contenía a Mew y el único detalle es que me costó vincularla al principio a mi móvil pero una vez conectada funciona de maravilla, cómo fan quedé encantado para usar en Pokémon GO, tiene un tamaño practico y hace perfectamente lo que debe de hacer.
(En caso de que surja algún detalle con el producto modificaré el comentario)

Seems to track distance very well and has a useful silent function for if you’re PokémonGo-ing on the go, spins Pokéstops most efficiently if you turn off the Nearby Pokémon notification setting as it will not spin it automatically if you’re in range of the stop and a Pokémon at the same time.
Otherwise pretty cool and versatile, fairly useful for children even as mine has been dropped and still functions perfectly. I would recommend the warranty purchase however just in case and of course the adorable and legendary Mew is a bonus for Switch too.
All in all, would 100% purchase more for family and friends. Good price for the value and useage as well.
La batería dura unas dos semanas pero se carga completa en al rededor de 3 horas, depende mucho de cuánto se use pero es un estimado. Jugando junto con Switch, la función de pasear algún Pokémon ayuda para ganar experiencia muy rápido. Completamente satisfecho con la compra.
