Trivia

• The item is a reference to the Pokémon franchise. Its name and appearance is a reference to Pokémon GO, and the pickup quote "Gotta catch 'em all!" is a common phrase in the Pokémon series. "A charmed (enemy) appears!" is a modified form of the phrase "A wild Pokémon appears!" from the series.
• Poke Go was originally an unofficial item which was supposed to showcase the modding capabilities of Afterbirth+ in the PAX 2016 livestream. However, all items included in the demo were later added to the final game.
