Google's Pokemon April Fools' Joke
 
Google chooses you to become a Pokémon Master on April Fools'
  1. Go to your Google Maps App
  2. Tap on search bar
  3. "Press Start"
  4. CATCH 'EM ALL!
:fullofwin:


It's cool if you were into Pokemon!

I think the major Google HQ's are the "Pokemon Labs"

really boring, video made me think that I can walk around with the camera of my phone and use it on google maps to find a pokemon (having an image on my camera) but in reality, it is just a 2d map clicking on pokemon and pressing "capture"

gave up at 29...

Not that hard of a game...most of them are at famous landmarks and their surrounding locations.

Vatican City, Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, White House, etc etc

Imagine they begin interrupting your directions with random encounters,
"turn left n-" *DIDALA-DIDALA-DIDALA-DIDALA-DEEEE*

I have 150 pokemon but some people on reddit are claiming that you can get a 151st (Mew) at coordinates -2.98, -58.49 after you get all 150....

Not sure if troll or not but a lot of people can`t see it.

I'm pretty sure it's a troll. It isn't hard to photoshop any of these
