Nintendo had a special new announcement forPokemon Let’s Gofans during its E3 2018 press conference. Those who purchase the previously announcedPokeball Plus Nintendo Switch JoyConcontroller will receive Mew forPokemon Let’s Go PikachuandPokemon Let’s Go Eevee. Mew will be an exclusive just for Pokeball Plus buyers, making it all the more enticing for Nintendo Switch Pokemon fans.
When Nintendo says that the Mythical Pokemon Mew will come exclusively with the Pokeball Plus, it’s unclear exactly what they mean by exclusive. Perhaps it’s just a clever bonus for players to acquire so early inPokemon Let’s Go.Pokemon GOplayers will be able to transfer over theMews that they’ve caughtafter all. And hopefully there’s still a way to discover the rare Pokemon in-game, as well.

The Pokeball Plus JoyCon controller for the Nintendo Switch was announced alongsidePokemon Let’s Go PikachuandEeveejust recently. The Pokeball-shaped controller will allow players to come that much closer to simulating the life of aPokemontrainer. Especially so, sincePokemon Let’s Gofeatures thePokemon GOfeature where players “throw” a Pokeball to catch newPokemon. Just be careful not to throw the Pokeball Plus into your television.
So far, Nintendo has only announced one way of acquiring a Pokeball Plus controller. Two different bundles have been announced and are already available for pre-order. Each one will include a copy of eitherPokemon Let’s Go PikachuorPokemon Let’s Go Eevee, along with a Pokeball Plus controller. Retail pricing for each bundle is $99.99.
Nintendo may still make the Pokeball Plus controller available individually so Pokemon fans can use them cooperatively without buying a second game, so make sure to check back later so you’re able to get a Pokeball Plus of your own. There will be no better way to playPokemon Let’s Go.
