With the official launch of the app Pokèmon GO many nostalgic and new players in the series are delighting in the search for Pokémon in the streets of their city. But if you have just installed the app here is a very simple method to get the very famous yellow Pokémon immediately: Pikachu.
Immediately after installing the application, in continuity with what happened in the original Game Boy titles, on Pokémon Go we will immediately have a Pokémon to capture among these three: Charmander, Squirtle and Bulbasaur.
But as it happened on Yellow Pokémon, there is the possibility of having Pikachu as a fourth option.
The method is very simple and you will need to arm yourself with patience (it may take several minutes) and follow these steps once Professor Willow asks us to choose our starting pokémon among the three available:
- Ignore the presence of the three starting pokémon and walk further.
- The three pokémon will disappear and then reappear not far away, ignore them again this time and repeat step one.
- After carrying out this procedure three times, on the fourth, the three Pokémon will return in the company of a fourth element: Pikachu.
Once Pikachu appears, you can catch him normally by throwing your pokéball, simple isn't it?
A video released by Game Informer shows us the procedure just described:
