Pokémon Go has grown exponentially in popularity since its release date. And now even Apple’s own virtual assistant is getting in on the Pokémon craze.
A report from 9to5Mac says that Siri now answers the question “Do you play Pokémon Go?” with a variety of replies. However, any other phrasing will simply open the app or offer to navigate for the user to random locations.
Here are some of Siri’s Pokémon Go-related replies:
* “Of course. That’s what it’s all about. Oh, wait, that’s the hoké Pokémon.”
* “Snorlax. Zzzz. Sorry, what was the question?”
* “I like playing peekaboo with Pikacu.”
* “Confining virtual beings inside powerful devices makes me feel funny for some reason.”
* “I like pocket monsters. Pocket assistants, too.”
* “Just make sure to look both ways. And up and down, too.”
As Pokémon Go continues to be released in other countries, perhaps even Microsoft’s Cortana can have a chance to catch up with her fellow virtual assistant and offer up her own quirky replies to Pokémon-related inquiries. Alfred Bayle
