The simple trick to get one of the most addictive games in the search engine

Google may not be at its best, after a couple of years something difficult that have forced several restructuring and mass layoffs while continuing to bet on Gemini and AI; But that does not mean that no one is left in the company with a sense of humor.

Google’s new Easter egg reminds us of the times when developers put secrets and games constantly in the search engine; And it can be a great way to waste time during these days. It is a Pokémon -based minigamethe classic Nintendo game; Specifically, in the first two titles, Red Pokémon and Blue Pokémon, and the 151 Pokémon that started a mass phenomenon.

From now on, we can Capture those Pokémon belonging to the first generationdirectly in our browser. Google has implemented a minigame that is activated when we look for the name of a Pokémon, and that allows you to fill in our Pokédex data until we capture them all.

Unfortunately, this minigame is not yet available in Spanish; In the tests carried out by the Spanish – the free Android, we have not been able to start it in any way. The good news is that getting the minigame is very easy: we only have to Change Google language to English.

To do this, we only have to Press in our Google profile photo to open the search engine configurationand we will find an option to change the language to “English”. The good news is that the game is very simple, and even if it is in English, we should not have problems playing it.

The minigame works in a simple way: all we have to do is Find the name of a Pokémon On our smartphone, opening a new tab in our web browser and searching on Google. The search engine will show us the data of that Pokémon, but the interesting thing is in the lower right corner, where a Poké Ball will appear.

If we click on the Poké Ball, the Pokémon capture process will begin; The screen will get dark and the Pokémon will appear in an animation, and will be captured with our Poké Ball. When the process ends, the Pokémon will be kept in our account; The goal of the game is Capture the original 151 Pokémon and complete the game.

Therefore, this game asks us to remember the names of all original Pokémon, although we can always look for a list using Google. The minigame itself It will give us clues And the silhouette of each entry to refresh our memory, such as if it is a Pokémon that evolves from another.

However, this minigame is not as simple as writing the name of all pokemon. As good players will know, Some Pokémon cannot be captured so easily; Although we look for them, we cannot capture them with the Poké Ball we have. Therefore, the strategy consists in first looking for the most basic Pokémon and those that we find first in the original video games, and then we can unlock new types of Poké Ball, such as the Master Ball.
