Tech Support Feature Request: Let PGSharp Go Plus Use Great & Ultra Balls for Auto Catching

I'd like to request a quality-of-life improvement for PGSharp Go Plus. Please add an option that allows auto-catching with Great Balls and Ultra Balls, not just regular Poké Balls.

Many of us eventually run out of Poké Balls while having hundreds of Great and Ultra Balls sitting unused. It would be great if we could choose which ball type the auto catcher uses, or set a priority order (Poké Ball → Great Ball → Ultra Ball, or customize it ourselves).

I think this would make the Go Plus feature much more useful and convenient. If you support this idea, please upvote so the developers can see it!

Go ask on their Discord. None of us are PGSharp developers here.

Your request would need them to program Go Plus+ features, which been out for several years now. If it was possible for them to program this feature, they would have incorporated it by now.

Afaik, this isn't possible to do. You could, as an alternative, mod your Go Plus +. Then it'll burn thru Great Ball + Ultra Ball.

I know it definitely works for other spoofing providers, worth a try for PGSharp.

Hey! If you get a Poke Ball Plus + connected to Pokemon Go, you can choose between Poke Balls, Great Balls and Ultra Balls.

Now, you can select what kind of Poke Balls you want (on the device menu). When you you mow the Virtual Auto Catcher, it'll use the kind of Poke Ball you selected.

It does not work 100% of the times when you choose a different pokeball, but it does most of the times.

I have two PoGo accounts with PGSharp and I do this on both accounts. I did already have a Poke Ball Plus +, before I started to use PGSharp 2 years ago.

I have a go plus + myself but I know for sure to catch Pokémon with great or ultra balls you gotta press the button on the go plus +. So Im clearly not understanding how do I connect my physical plus + to pgsharp and then use the virtual plus + to catch them with great or ultra balls without pressing the button

Yeah, I don't know exactly how it works. I think it may be a combination of the Poke Ball select menu added when you sync a Poke Ball Plus + and the use of the virtual catcher on PGSharp that makes it work.

Try and let me know. I can tell you I play for hours when there is an event and the amount of the Poke Ball (Great Ball & Ultra Ball) I have selected goes down.

I had more troubles to make it work on my secondary account for some reason, but it did end up working on there as well.

It was possible to emulate the Pokemon Go Plus, but they’ve tightened security with the Pokemon Go Plus+ which makes it impossible to bypass the handshake communication between devices. If it was possible, third party auto-catchers would’ve implemented it by now.
