Pokémon GO is taking the world by storm, and is slowly being rolled-out world-wide.

Although it has not officially been launched in South Africa yet, users can still download and play the game fairly easily.

The Pokémon GO Plus is a wearable accessory that pairs with your Pokémon GO app via Bluetooth.

Once paired with your smartphone, the accessory will vibrate when Pokémon are nearby, and users can press a button to catch nearby Pokémon without taking out their phone.

Pokémon GO Plus can also be used at Pokéstops to collect items without worrying about taking out your smartphone.

The wearable accessory is currently available for pre-order at a price of R609.

Pokémon GO Plus is expected to land in South Africa on 29 July 2016.
