How to claim the Mew in your Poké Ball Plus

Your Poké Ball Plus is an entertaining tool for continuing your Pokémon Let's Go journey. It is a fun way to feel like you're a part of the game. From the feeling of "throwing" the Poké Ball Plus to catch Pokémon in the wild, to hear the cries in your Poké Ball Plus it is an ingenious way to feel the heart and soul of the game.

Another perk of the Poké Ball Plus is that it comes with the Mystery Gift of a Mew! This legendary Pokémon is available through the Poké Ball Plus via a Mystery Gift.

How to get Mew in Pokémon Let's Go

Start Pokémon Let's Go on your Nintendo Switch
When you're selecting your controller, select the Poké Ball Plus.

Restrictions

The game automatically saves when Mew gets transferred. This means that for trainers looking to get Mew for a competitive advantage you'll want to wait until you head over to the Medium in the Celadon City Pokémon Center to try and get the desired Nature.
Mew cannot be reset once the transfer has completed.
Mew is only available one per Poké Ball Plus, so multiple trainers playing on a single switch are out of luck!
