Along with the release of this device, it has also been announced that Pokemon GO will be coming to the Apple Watch as well. The watch will have all the functionality of the Pokemon GO Plus, but unlike the Plus, the Apple Watch will display nearby Pokemon, the distance needed to hatch eggs, collect items from PokeStops, as well as the amount of experience needed to level up. Even though the Apple Watch displays more information, you will still have to use your phone to catch Pokemon.
The Pokemon Go Plus is only available online through Amazon and Gamestop. The device retails at $35.
