Google’s artificial intelligence with the advanced Gemini 2.5 Pro model has succeeded in completing the popular and classic Pokémon Blue game. This success was achieved in the form of an independent project with the help of a software engineer, but Google’s support for the move shows that the competition of artificial intelligence models has entered a new phase.
The success of Jina in Pokémon’s game is an example of the increasing capabilities of language models to solve complex and unpredictable challenges.
Progress of artificial intelligence in classic video games
Google CEO Sundar Pichai wrote by posting on X -Social Network about Jina’s success:
“What a wonderful end! The 2.5 Peru was able to finish the Pokémon Blue game. “
This was aired by a software engineer named Joel Z, which has nothing to do with Google, in the form of a live broadcast called “Gemini Plays Pokemon”. Of course, prominent figures from Google have encouraged the project along this path.
Google Ai Studio’s product manager Logan Kilpatrick pointed out last month that Jina had progressed to the Pokémon game and had received 5 badges in the game until then; While the other models were only 3. Pichai wrote in response to this issue with a joke:
“We’re working on API, Artificial Pokémon Intelligence!”
The move was in response to a similar action by the anthropic company that had tested its Claude model in the Pokémon Red game. According to them, Claude’s performance in the game indicates the model’s ability to make long -term decision -making and a response to unexpected conditions.
Competition of Language Models in Conquest of Pokémon
Joel Z, developer of the Gemini Plays Pokemon project, responds to some doubts about providing foreign aid to the model:
“The changes I made improved the general decision and reasoning of Jina. I have no direct tips to pass certain steps like MT. I didn’t give Moon. The only exception was the bug in the game version that was later fixed in Pokémon Yellow. “

He emphasizes that other interventions have been made in software development but are not fraudulent and are mostly to optimize the function of artificial intelligence. Joel Z added:
“The Gemini Plays Pokémon project is still active and its framework is constantly better.”
This success shows that powerful language models like Gemini can go beyond the purely linguistic space and enter the world of interactive decision -making and complex games. However, this achievement with developer interference is still a representation of the power of analysis and reasoning. Google’s hidden competition and companies like anthropic to showcase the superiority of artificial intelligence in unexpected affairs can bring an attractive future for AI applications in entertainment and beyond.
