The Pok� Ball Plus was first released for Pok�mon Let's Go, Pikachu! & Let's Go, Eevee! and is compatible with Pok�mon Sword & Shield. While it can't be used as a controller like it could for the previous game, it keeps its functionality with Pok�mon GO and allows for you to take Pok�mon for a stroll, this time Pok�mon from the Galar Pok�dex When you have a Pok�mon in the Pok�Ball Plus, you'll be able to hear it through the speaker and interact with it slightly through motion of the device by holding down the stick for two seconds. To mute it, press the control stick and top button simultaneously, and do it again to unmute. There's a support mode accessed by holding both buttons down for 5 seconds which can then be exited by pressing the stick down. It has three elements which you can cycle through with the top button.

Much like its predecessor, when you purchase a new Pok� Ball Plus, internally it contains a Mew and, like Let's Go, Pikachu! & Let's Go, Eevee!, you have the ability to receive the Mew and add it to your Pok�mon Sword & Shield game. To retrieve the Mew, you require an Internet connection but do not need a Nintendo Online subscription.

With the Pok� Ball Plus, you have the capability to put a Pok�mon from your storage in Pok�mon Sword & Shield into the Pok� Ball Plus. This does not remove the specific Pok�mon from the game. To do this, go to Mystery Gift and there will be an option to Take Your Pok�mon for a Stroll. If you have received the Mew from the Pok� Ball Plus, you can put a Pok�mon into the Pok� Ball Plus. You can do this for multiple Pok� Ball Plus devices at any one time.. When in the Pok� Ball Plus, the Pok�mon can be played with by pushing down the control stick for two seconds. There, it goes into a play mode where, if you shake the device gently or rotate the control stick, you can play with the Pok�mon with varying results which net you bonuses. These bonuses are exclusive to Pok�mon Let's Go. The Pok�mon will also sometimes call out to you which requires you to press the top button to respond. If the Pok� Ball Plus is connected to Pok�mon GO while a Pok�mon is in it, the Pok�mon will receive special bonuses as well. The more you succeed in catching Pok�mon and do other things such as spin-stops, the more bonuses you get. When you receive your Pok�mon back from the stroll, based on what it did during it, you will get a variety of item rewards. These rewards are determined by points you gain for the walk. These points are accued by doing the tasks Unlike Pok�mon Let's Go, you don't gain Experience
