Get ready for even more realistic Pokémon encounters: AR+ is coming to Pokémon GO! Niantic has gone ahead and finally announced the AR+, it will be initially available on iOS 11 devices (iPhone 6s) onwards.

The reasoning is simple: AR+ uses ARKit and ARKit is only available on iOS 11.

Currently, we have no information for Android Users when it will be available, Android support not coming before AR Core releases.

Here’s the Preview of the new AR+ Mode

The following is now confirmed for AR Plus:

Scale: With AR+ Mode, Pokemon will be Fixed point in Space, meaning you can walk up close to a Pokémon to see to how they’ll look in the real world

Awareness: Pokémon will run away if they become aware of the Trainers getting close, so be careful. You can sneak up close to earn an Expert Handler bonus, An awareness meter will appear next to the Pokémon, and if the meter fills up, the Pokémon will flee.

Expert Handler Bonus: 

Think you have what it takes to be an expert Pokémon handler? While in AR+ mode, you’ll finally have the chance to prove it! If you’re able to catch a Pokémon while in close proximity, you’ll have a better chance at earning Great and Excellent Throw bonuses, as well as an all-new Expert Handler bonus that awards even more XP and Stardust.

This is our first step toward making AR capabilities in Pokémon GO even more awesome, opening up the framework for greater AR experiences in the future. As you explore your local neighborhoods, remember to share your AR+ photos of your encounters on social media with the hashtag #PokemonGOarplus. And be sure to always stay aware of your surroundings and make sure you’re safe while in AR+ mode. We’d love to see all of your new adventures as they unfold.

Mewtwo is a pure PSYCHIC type, resulting in a number of solid counters and second team choices.

Mewtwo Raid Boss CP is found to be 49,430 and it can have max CP of 2,275.

	MAX CP	3982
	ATTACK	182
	DEFENSE	300
	STAMINA	193
	BUDDY CANDY DISTANCE	20 KM
	BASE CAPTURE RATE	6%

Legendary	Weakness
	DARK
	BUG
	GHOST

Mewtwo Raid Counters

Counters	Quick Move	Charged Move
Tyranitar	Bite	Crunch
		Stone Edge
Mewtwo	Confusion	Shadow Ball
Houndoom	Snarl	Foul Play
Scizor	Fury Cutter	X-Scissor
Gyarados	Bite	Crunch
		Hydro Pump
Pinsir	Fury Cutter	X-Scissor
Gengar	Shadow Claw	Shadow Ball

Mewtwo takes Super Effective damage from DARK, BUG and GHOST type Movesets due to its PSYCHIC type.

The best Pokemon to fight Mewtwo is Tyranitar with incredibly strong DARK type moves.

However, Mewtwo’s Focus Blast charge move can have devastating lethal damage to a Tyranitar if it’s hit.

Dodging is not only recommended, it’s almost mandatory.

High Damage & Survivability Pokemon

Tyranitar

High Damage & Low Survivability Pokemon

Gengar

Good Damage & Survivability Pokemon

Scizor

Pinsir

Catching Mewtwo

Coming Soon… Stay tuned

We Would highly recommend using the golden razz as the base catch rate is 3% (With Golden razz, catch rate is 5% + etc bonuses such as curveball)
