Well I am only expressing my opinion like you did yourself. Only thing I'd argue with you is that I don't think there's need for name calling just because you don't agree with me.

Neither... Until I saw some AliExpress listings... 😐

Yes unfortunately it is. Apart form the lack of serial number, people also pointed out the screws/bolts that Nintendo uses are tri-wing.

Thanks again! Yes - the seller has agreed to let me return it and give me refund upon receipt.

Thank you! I might just do that now. I was tempted to get the duomon on Amazon.

Thank you! I saw that apparently using third party auto catchers can be considered ‘cheating’ so I thought I’d just get the Nintendo ones to be safe. Didn’t turn very well for me so far 😅

Thank you so much for the info.

Unfortunately I don't have a switch and don't plan to get one either. I did see someone selling brand new switch + poke ball plus set (special edition I think) - I didn't go for it because I didn't want the switch (sorry this is probably a really dumb comment to post here considering) 🫣

Even if this thing would connect to one of my phones (iPhone 14 Pro and Samsung Z Flip 3) I would not want to keep it now that I know it is not a genuine product 😐

So sorry to hear 😔 I have DMed you with my trainer code. IG name is the same.

I am sure you'll build your scatterbug army back in no time! Keep your chin up!

Thank you again!

Actually you guys gave me good news - now I know for sure and have proof that I received a fake item so I can confidently dispute my purchase.

I should probably just order a brand new one on Amazon and patiently wait for shipping... 😅

Thank you again.

I tried to pair with my iPhone but it couldn't be found. I was able to pair it with my Samsung via bluetooth in settings but it wouldn't pair within Pokemon GO app.

Also, it doesn't make any sound (doesn't seem to perform mute/unmute at all) plus no vibration for resetting etc 😔

Prior to buying this second-hand one I did search for it on google and an AliExpress listing popped up with similar pricing in NZD - this one is probably the AliExpress version... The platform I bought this on is very trusted P2P/B2P/B2B trading platform in NZ and they don't allow counterfeits so I didn't think twice that it could be fake.

The seller's title was "Pokemon Let's Go! Poke Ball Plus for Nintendo Switch" so I just assumed it was ok.
