How to Mute/Unmute Poké Ball Plus

Instructions on how to mute or unmute the Poké Ball Plus accessory.

Important:

  • While playing Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! or Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! on Nintendo Switch, it is not possible to mute or deactivate the vibration on Poké Ball Plus. 

  • While using Poké Ball Plus with the mobile app Pokémon GO, you can deactivate the accessory vibration within the app settings (same as with Pokémon GO Plus).

Complete These Steps:

To mute Poké Ball Plus, simultaneously press the Top Button and the control stick button once.

  • When muted, Poké Ball Plus will produce a long vibration.

To unmute Poké Ball Plus, simultaneously press both of these buttons again.

  • When unmuted, Poké Ball Plus will produce two short vibrations. If the two short vibrations did not go off, you may need to try this step again. 

  • You can verify if Poké Ball Plus is unmuted by charging it (the charge chime will go off when it is first connected to the Nintendo Switch AC adapter or other supported power source). 

  • You can also verify if Poké Ball Plus is unmuted by gently shaking it while in Play With Pokémon mode, provided that a Pokémon is present.
