For my Story Restructure 02 Assignment, I wrote an article on the April Fool’s Day prank that Google did this year. The theme was Pokemon related. I decided to write about this one because it was the most recent and because it was well-received, due to Pokemon being so popular. As a fan of the original Pokemon, that also intrigued me to write about it, as I remember being excited about first hearing of the prank around April Fool’s Day. In the article, I mentioned some of the Pokemon that were featured in the prank which include Charmander, Bulbasaur, Dragonite and more. I also mentioned that after collecting all 150 Pokemon on the Google Maps Pokemon Challenge, participants could obtain the very rare psychic Pokemon Mew, who could only be obtained in the original Pokemon Blue, Pokemon Red and Pokemon Yellow games through a programming glitch discovered in 2003, a GameShark cheat or a Nintendo promoted event with the glitch seeming to be the most popular and easiest way to get Mew as the GameShark cheat could apparently mess up the data of players games and cause the games to freeze.
After finishing the article, I coded the html through DreamWeaver. I changed the font size and type, along with changing the color to red text, since Pokeballs, which are used to capture Pokemon, are mostly red colored with a little bit of white added in. Additionally, I provided links to the official Twitter and Facebook page for Pokemon, along with the link to the YouTube video promoting the Google Maps Pokemon Challlenge and a website that describes the famous Mew. I also added a photo different than the one provided as the one I used showed some of the actual Pokemon being featured in the Pokemon Challenge on Google Maps.
