Pokemon challenges Google Maps on April Fools' Day

By Jeong Ji-su

Google pulled on a Pokémon challenge for April Fools’ Day this year, reported the Huffington Post Monday.

Google Maps disclosed a video announcing a new job opening called “Pokémon master.”

Those who want to apply for this job have to open Google Maps App, make sure it’s the most recent version, and hit the Pokéball button at the search bar.

From there, participants have to find the Pokémon figures all over the map around the globe. There is also a deadline to find all 150 Pokémon till April 2, 2014 at 2 p.m. PDT.

Google’s video says that people who find all of the Pokémon in time will be invited to Googleplex to take part in the final round of hiring, with the winner starting the job as Pokémon master on Sept. 1, 2014.

Sadly enough, Google announced in another video that “the role of Pokémon master is not yet available” and directed viewers to go to Google’s jobs page.
