A Pokemon Go trainer is celebrating a near-impossible catch in the game thanks to his Pokemon Go Plus+ device.

Since the launch of Daily Adventure Incense and the accompanying debut of the Galarian Legendary Birds, trainers worldwide have been dying to get their hands on them.

However, they quickly found that they were nearly impossible to catch — with many taking to the internet to express their distaste.

One lucky trainer took to the Pokemon Go subreddit to celebrate his catch after managing to get a Galarian Zapdos with his Pokemon Go Plus+ device in a regular Poke Ball.
