- Doesn’t look very Pokemon themed
- No loud noises or vibrations
- Auto-catches all of your Pokemon
As a seasoned Pokemon Go player with years of footsteps traversed and countless Pokeballs thrown, I found the Auto Catch ND to be quite intriguing. Unlike its flashy counterpart, the Go Plus +, this understated device caters to those who prefer a more subtle gaming experience.
It’s no surprise that I play Pokemon Go every day; it’s a game that requires moving around the real world to gather more Pokemon and acquire items by spinning stops. So, while you’re driving or out shopping, there’s a chance you could be catching Pokemon if your phone is handy
To make the gaming experience more laid-back and effortless, The Pokemon Company introduced the enhanced version of Pokemon GO, known as Pokemon GO+. This official auto catcher can be synced with Pokemon Go, enabling you to capture Pokemon without needing to have the game actively open. There are also unauthorized devices on the market, such as the Auto Catch ND, which we will be exploring today
The Auto Catch ND shares the same dimensions and weight as the Go Plus +, yet it operates on batteries (requiring two AAA batteries). This aspect, in my experience, presents a drawback because unlike other serious Pokemon players who carry battery packs for easy charging, this device lacks that feature
Design of the Auto Catch ND
I quite enjoy the design of the Auto Catch ND. It’s purplish and streamlined, making it inconspicuous if you don’t wish to broadcast that it’s a Pokemon playing device. The central B button glows slightly, indicating whether a PokeStop has been spun or a Pokemon has been caught successfully. Much like the official device, this button can be used for tap-to-catch. In contrast, the Go Plus + is brighter, has an unavoidable vibration, and can even emit Pikachu’s voice (although this feature can be muted within the game)
Keeping those points in consideration, the Auto Catch ND offers a more understated gaming experience. It employs similar methods for pairing with your mobile device, ensuring a familiar process. This third-party catcher features arrow key buttons on its base, which we’ll delve into further within this review. Additionally, it comes equipped with a switch to power off the device and choose between Apple or Android devices. A quick connect button is also located on one side of the device
How does the Auto Catch ND work in-game?
Using the Auto Catch ND with your gaming device is quite similar to the Go Plus + in terms of functionality. It spins Pokestops, catches Pokemon at a comparable speed, and I haven’t observed any significant differences in the number of Pokemon that get caught versus those that escape or in the time it takes to spin stops. The manufacturer claims it takes one second to spin and five seconds to catch, making it quite similar to the official device. However, both devices have similar limitations during heavily populated areas with many spawns, where they may halt catching due to an overabundance of Pokemon to choose from, necessitating manual intervention to ‘wake’ them up again
The Arrows
Initially, when I came across the arrows on the front of the Auto Catch ND, I had the misconception that its purpose was to aid in deceit, particularly in terms of movement manipulation. This assumption seems to be shared by others as well. However, it turns out that this isn’t entirely accurate. At least, not regarding deceptive movement
By implementing Auto Catch ND’s directions and activating Touch Assist on your smartphone, you’ll notice a small circle appear on your device that can be positioned at your convenience, providing an additional touch point. If you configure this feature, you can utilize the arrow key to simulate tapping based on the location of the dot in relation to the screen center. This functionality is intended to facilitate more taps during battles, which could be considered cheating and may lead to account suspension. Consequently, I chose not to explore its use in battles, given that it’s unfair and goes against the rules
Final Thoughts
Auto Catch ND offers an app named Pocket Center, which mirrors most of the in-game settings like enabling or disabling spin and captures. However, since these controls are already accessible within the game, I’m not entirely convinced about the necessity of another app for this purpose. That being said, Auto Catch ND shares some similarities with Go Plus +, making it a viable alternative if you find the vibrations and lights on the original device bothersome and aren’t comfortable disassembling it to eliminate the vibrations. Unfortunately, it does require batteries, which is a slight drawback
