Google has teamed up with Pokemon to introduce an engaging Easter egg mini-game centered around the classic 151 Pokemon. Fans can access this fun feature by simply searching for any Pokemon name in the Kanto Pokedex on their mobile devices. After the search results appear, a Pokeball icon will show up in the lower right corner. Tapping this icon will trigger an animation of a Pokeball being thrown at the searched Pokemon, allowing players to catch it.
Key Features of the Game:
- Players must be logged into their Google accounts to successfully catch all 151 Pokemon.
- While searching without an account is possible, progress (like the number of Pokemon caught) won’t be saved.
- Legendary Pokemon such as Mewtwo require players to first capture five standard Pokemon to earn a Master Ball necessary for their capture.
This partnership marks another instance of Google incorporating beloved video game elements into their services, similar to previous Easter eggs from titles like Minecraft and Splatoon 3.
Note: This Easter egg is a fun, promotional activity rather than a direct tie-in to any specific upcoming releases or events.
