Nintendo's Reggie Fils-Aime has revealed that anyone who plonks down the cash for a Poke Ball Plus accessory will receive a free Mew Pokemon for their troubles.

For those not in the know, Mew is an incredible powerful and rare psychic Pokemon whose fossilized eyelash lead to the creation of the clone, MewTwo.

This is actually a pretty sweet deal, as Mew is notoriously difficult to obtain; he's normally only able to snap up in event-only situations.

The Poke Ball Plus is due out this November, and is a physical item you can lug around with you and use to catch Pokemon in the upcoming Switch games Pokemon Let's Go! Pikachu and Pokemon Let's Go! Eevee. 

It's even able to make noises, light up, and shake, cos there's a Pokemon inside, right? C'mon, there so is.

Pokemon Let's Go! Pikachu and Pokemon Let's Go! Eevee is due out for Switch on November 16. The Poke Ball Plus can be purchased on its own or in a bundle deal with a copy of the game.
