Sounds like we made some progress, now to enjoy a day of lavender town music.

*Actually on the stream* I just saw them try to take a Gastly down with Dig Rat.....obviously that didn't go well. Now they're trying Pidgeot who I learned is at level 47. o.o Holy crap, it's over leveled compared to the rest of the team.
Edit: They lost again and now are back in the Pokemon Center. They serious need more grinding, but I'm sure they won't listen. |
Agatha will be SO FUN to fight guys.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE. All hail me.
Looks like there's nothing going on this morning though, so I'm sad. :( I'll have to keep checking this thread when I can to keep up with the fun I suppose. Or Twitter. Anyone else following the updates there? |
Apparently we have a Zubat named DASHBAT and they named the DIG RAT.
|
We're just fumbling around Lavender at this point.

THE HELIX FOSSIL IS IN THIS THREAD. ALL PRAISE HELIX. *BOWS DOWN* I'm surprised they managed to name a Zubat DASHBAT, but named our Charmander ABBBBBBK ( and Ratatta JLVWNNOOOO. IDK how much longer can I take us being stuck in Lavender Town. That music is just. >_> |
So I woke up to new teammates and new nicknames! Two Zubat, Jess/Dashbat and X. Digrat is now AJ/Apollo Justice. Seed of Hope has been renamed Cabbage. And we're desperately trying to do anythibg in the tower. This is wonderful.
|
Quote:
Did they still not get through Pokemon Tower? Why are they in Saffron? What's the current objective? ._. |
Current goal: Get Psychic for the Keeper and level up the Keeper and AJ so we can get through the tower. Apparently. I'm just rattling off what @twitchPKupdates is saying. Seems like a legit plan.
also we just got Psychic. Now to teach it... |
This has to be the craziest yet most hilarious thing I've seen in years. Never has Giovanni's "I'm surprised you made it here!" been so accurate.
|
Okay I'm out of touch on the Pokemon in our team. I know there's a Pidgeot and a Rattata and a Drowsee and I think a Farfetch'd named DUX . But what else? Like what our their names and such? I know we had Abby and Jay Leno too. But I'm so out of touch with their names and such. Help anyone? I'm confused on what some of the names Anna is using to be honest. XD
|
Lemme give you a rundown of all the Pokémon up till now then!
'mon - in-game nick - fan nick Current Party Oddish - x(araggbaj - Seed of Hope, Cabbage Rattata - AAJST(???? - Digrat, AJ, Apollo Justice Farfetch'd - Dux - Dux, Slayer of Trees Pidgeot - n/a - Bird Jesus Drowzee - n/a - The Keeper Zubat - JJSSSSS- (originally ---) - Dashbat, Jess, Jesus, Jaden Smith Other Charmeleon - ABBBBBBK ( - Abby (released) Rattata - JLVWNNOOOO - Jay Leno (released) Flareon - n/a - False Prophet (released) Zubat - X - X-Wing (PC) |

I'm sure there's people making "How Can Mirrors Be Real If Our Eyes Aren't Real" joke all the time. I can wonder if there's a picture of that yet. XD |
Quote:
Soo, are we trying out Nuzlocke once we're done? ;D |
Digrat is always digrat despite the rename. You just don't do that. I have spoken.
|
Some people call the Keeper "The Apostle" as well but I really don't see that as much. Also we haven't yet managed to teach him Psychic, but we're doing a bit of grinding. Kinda. Basically just trying to take things out with our 'mon that don't faint.
edit: 6k posts! edit2: We have just obtained a Hitmonlee named CCC! Majority says we're calling him C3KO. I have no objection to that hahaha. EDIT3: WE FAILED AT RETRIEVING C3KO FROM THE PC INSTEAD WE RELEASED HIM AND DEPOSITED ALMOST ALL OUT ITEMS INCLUDING LORD HELIX AND THE SCOPE and now we stored Cabbage. AND RELEASED X-WING RIP YOU POOR GUYS Cabbage is back. SS Ticket, Lift Key, Lord Helix, Cut, and Silph Scope are back. RIP X-Wing and C3KO. We hardly knew ye. |
Well the Zubat thing who cares. We have a tendency of catching Com Mons in pairs and then releasing one. And we know how very well the Free Pokémon worked with Eevee...
|
But its name was X-Wing! That was cool! And C3KO could have helped us ;; It was higher-leveled than anyone but Bird Jesus.
Also wow we released both our Star Wars mons at the same time. Of course. EDIT: WE MANAGED TO TEACH PSYCHIC TO THE KEEPER. PRAISE BE TO HELIX Edit2: what the heck we caught a Gastly. We're supposed to be EXP farming them not catching them! Anyway he's been named Rick Gastly. Approved. |
Quote:
Did they ever clear the Rocket Conveyer Belt and Defeat Giovani??? How long were they there, seemed like more than 24 hours! |
Yeah they beat Giovanni, on the second attempt. I saw the first attempt where Bird Jesus got Giovanni's Kangaskhan down to near death, then they just spammed whirlwind until they lost. Eventually they beat him and got the Silph Scope. They spent well over 24 hours in the maze but they did beat it. Now I think they're trying to grind Drowzee as they need it to beat the ghosts in Lavender Tower.
|
We were dealing with Rocket HQ for about 40 hours lol. But, it's okay! Despite having been wandering around Lavender and Saffron for the better part of the day, we obtained three new Pokémon, released two of them, beat a bunch of trainers, got Psychic and taught it to the Keeper, and actually made progress. Our main problem right now is that we don't have Ghost-combatants an we're kind of hopeless at actual training.
|
The fact that I come home to find we released a freaking HITMONLEE is horrendous. Nobody consulted me about this awful decision.
|
Yeah I've noticed Night Shade hitting Dux. What's going on there? Some wierd gen 1 mechanic? Night shade is a ghost move right? I also can't believe how short they had CCC for. 38 minutes between beating the dojo and realeasing him. Wow. Not that he would have helped here, but still.
EDIT: I've just noticed Oddish's name, x(araggbaj. if you look at the ( as if it was a c it does look a lot like x cabbage which is amazingly apt name under the conditions they had to enter it under. |
RIP C3KO & X-Wing. :(
People have been saying that since it's Pokémon Red 151, it should be possible to go back and pick up Hitmonchan. Which could be useful given its level. Have we done that? Nope. Quoting Bulba cause I was wondering about Night Shade as well. Quote:
|
Awww poor C3KO and X-Wing. We had you for like 10 minutes and now you're gone for good. :/ Helix will take care of you now though. I know for a fact they're a caring and loving god. :) I'm guessing we still between Saffron and Lavender Town right?
|
We're in Lavender Town. We lost in the tower a few times and got chucked back to Saffron but we finally healed in Lavender so we're just hanging out in the tower now. It usually ends up at a point where we have to wait for a trainer's lv20-something Gastly to take out Bird Jesus so we can go heal and try again.
|
Oh boy. Knowing that Bird Jesus mostly knows moves not effective against Ghost types, we'll be in Pokemon Tower for a while unless we train The Keeper a bit. Hopefully not as long as Rocket's HQ.
|
Nah, we should be good. The Keeper have been doing well and is starting to get into the levels where they can take things down as efficiently as we can command them. Helps that we have a 50% chance of using an effective move. AJ, Cabbage, and Jess are all doing okay as well when they get sent out. Hopefully this means we're getting better at grinding.
|
There should be an alternate channel with entirely random button inputs to compare results :15:
|
That's great hearing, I'm hoping we get lucky can possibly land a few critical hits, maybe we can pass the Tower soon. They all need more grinding cause Bird Jesus is like 20 levels ahead of them last I saw.
|
Pretty sure Bird Jesus will be a fair amount higher for a loooong time.
@Snowpoint - There's something like that in Twitch Plays Pokémon Plays Tetris! It's taking the commands going into TPP and using them to play Tetris and seeing what happens. |
It's a neat concept...but it's more of a jumbled mess than a proper gameplay. The memes are quite funny though.
While it can be fun, it's nothing but circles to me :c. Also, that Helix Fossil's proven its worth. Must purchase. |
But that's kind of the point. Proper gameplay would be boring as hell- we collectively decided that when Democracy was implemented. We want to see chaos, we want to see if anarchy makes progress. That's the charm. You gotta have charm in a Let's Play- it's boring if there's nothing unique to it. Most people bring personality and a different perspective to a game when they create one, but this brings this whole new way of playing. It brings the personality of thousands of people united by this one thing. And that's why it's cool.

Echoing what Anna said. The jumbled mess is what it's so much fun! You can't really expect that many people (which ranges from 50,000 to 75,000 people most of the time)playing the same game at the same time to be calm and collected and have a straightforward , streamlined playthrough. With so many commands going in at once, the player goes all over and it's hilarious.Democracy (or when input is determined by what command gets the most votes ) makes the game boring and monotonous. Also you should see how crazy people riot when we go into a democracy. Very few people actually like it. It's formed so many good memes/jokes too.
|
Now that I've heard the Pokémon Tower music enough that I could probably write the whole composition by memory, I can't wait until they get the Flute. I always miss when Pokémon are caught/released. They caught like 2 or 3 Pokémon in the last 24 hours? Does anyone think that TPP should remove the Democracy/Anarchy system now that they got the Adolph Scope? I don't like how the command chat is spammed with democracy and anarchy rather than GB buttons.
|
Well, I don't know how many difficult puzzles we'll be facing in the future, but I think keeping the system is good. Democracy is more able to do things like get into the PC safely and buy things and make it out doors. I don't actually see much spam of those commands unless the bar is approaching a switch (which is when people try to fight/really push it).
|
Part of people fight over anarchy and democracy, second part desperately try to accomplish something in game, the last part is trolls that just want to get us nowhere.
|
Hahahaha AJ used Dig again while we were halfway up the tower. Oh anarchy. xD
In all seriousness though, I don't mind that we're a bit stuck right now. Like, we're not really going anywhere, but at least we have battles and are making actual progress (slowly). It's not nearly as frustrating as being stuck in Rocket HQ. |
I'm surprised that with all the comics I've been seeing, none of them showed Red digging out of a building. They show him walking around in random directions and constantly opening the Start menu but none of them show him and Dig Rat going right through the floor lol. If someone finds a comic like that, they should post it :o
|
Anyone who votes democracy is a Dome worshipper.
It was never Helix's intention for boring old order to take place. The best plan I've heard so far is to get Fly for Bird Jesus and put The Keeper up front. But of course that's not going to happen. >:3 |
I like how people coined the term "Domeocracy" lol. This whole thing is getting hilariously out of hand. What's ironic is that even while Anarchy reigns the supreme form of command, people can still vote whether to use Anarchy or Democracy.
|
We'll be fine as long as we manage to train a bit. We could easily get--
WE JUST DUG AGAIN GODDAMIT AJ Anyway. We could easily get our less powerful guys up to speed if we stopped running from everything. Oh, by the way- Jess has a new name. ABB-??AAJ. Fan name... Abby Jr. :') |
Quote:
We'll just end up flying to places and having a really hard time staying in the city we're actually supposed to be in. xD |
I watched for the first time last night. It was a beautiful sight to behold. We spent most of our time in Saffron City, going through the menu. :D
|
Quote:
Apparently the Keeper forgot psychich to learn Headbutt instead :( Now we need to grind him to level 32 to relearn it. |
Not to mention cancel his evolution 5 times to get to level 32. If we end up with Hypno too early we have to wait to level 37 for Psychic.
As for the fly problem there is a solution to be found in the long term, but I mean VERY long term. We have to pick up the Sky Attack TM which is in Victory Road. It's far more powerful than fly and it's not a field move, therefore giving Bird Jesus a weapon against Agatha's ghosts without potentially becoming Digrat Mk2. If we do manage to pull this off Bird Jesus should be about level 80 allowing him to pretty much destroy Agatha, who will be our biggest issue based on the evidence of Lavender Town. Of course this is assuming we have enough ethers to keep it's pp up, and assuming we teach it to Pidgeot instead of Dux . Actually nvm, I can't see this going any way but wrong. Yeah we need to level up Drowzee to beat Agatha and the Lavander Tower |
If TPP release "Bird Jesus" will the stream be over?

If there wasn't such a massive delay between the command inputs and what's actually happening in the stream, this would be so much better. u.u
If Bird Jesus gets released, I believe that's the equivalent to the apocalypse. Sucks how you can't go near the PC without a huge risk of that happening. And I think the objective right now is to grind, considering we are near a healing pad, but... a lot of people are shouting in the chat box that grinding is not worth it right now, others are shouting to stop grinding because it's boring .__. But in my opinion grinding might be much needed right now, though it's really hard when Dig Rat is upfront and only one of its moves hits ghosts so we have to just hope it gets selected and we don't run away... |
That Raticate really is something. Dig your way to the E4!
|
Well, since I've been asleep we progressed in grinding even though we run away from about 90% of battles! Yay! AJ and the Keeper are pulling their weight now awww look at this! I don't care if people think it's boring, this is progress and helpful and it's great. :D
|
I actually decided to contribute for once instead of just watching. We almost made it to the end, the stairs right before the Marowak boss fight, then we Dug out, again. This is the first time I saw it happen and I'm already frustrated with Digrat. As for the argument on grinding I think we should do it outside the lavender tower. That way everyone can get exp, not just Drowzee, who still gets badly damaged by night shade and once he goes down then we have to go back and heal.
Now there's an(other) argument in the Pokemon center. Heal and go up again or box/release digrat. |
Currently there's a fight over using the PC and dropping off AJ. But AJ is pretty useful tbh. I say keep him round. And using the PC is dangerous.
As for training outside the tower, that would be sensible. But we want to try and make progress, so we're going to relentlessly head up there and maybe gain exp on the way instead of trying to properly train. |
How did I not know of this thread?
I blame all of you. Have fun. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJl37Nrp86E[/ame] |
That was beautiful.
As is this lovely bit of art I found... Spoiler:
And here are some gifs of the chat when the stream pauses. :P https://24.media.tumblr.com/ede8fb6423ee71e9040bce5756027321/tumblr_n1aekdunCn1rsrg8so1_400.gifhttps://24.media.tumblr.com/27472b05e13f088f955bcff7dfcbae2d/tumblr_n1aekdunCn1rsrg8so2_400.gif EDIT: WE BEAT MAROWAK HECK YEA |
POKéMON GRAPHS! hell yeah.
Snorlax or Lapras? We truly have a tendency for ruining the lives of every pokémon that is handed down to us so I'm starting to worry about our surfing friend. |
Whatever happens, we'll have to go into the PC. I am not looking forward to that, especially now that we have four legitimately useful Pokémon with us. :|
|
We finally finished the Pokemon Tower and got the Pokeflute! *Victory cheer*
I can now go to bed, I feel like my job is done for the night. It's funny coz' when we all manage something in Twitch plays Pokemon you feel like you love everybody that's participating in this madness, even the trolls! It's beautiful. :') |
We have three tries to catch Snorlax. I don't think we'll pull it off.
|
They ran from Snorlax. ;c Did the trolls really have to keep pressing right? Oh, wait, they're trolls.
At least there is another Snorlax, but I don't have high hopes... |
We just ran away from the first Snorlax, I'm actually impressed that we even managed to toss a great ball once (it missed, I was like "whut?" I didn't remember that part from the First Gen...it's been so long, aha) and we weakened it a bit but he used rest, and then we were out of here.
Oh well. We tried at least! |
We're probably just gonna end up with Lapras. What I'm worried about now is that we're still significantly underleveled besides Abba Jesus. :|
|
We can always spend some more time grinding. It's not like the enemies are significantly harder until Victory Road either.
Spoiler:
|
Hngg, I've barely been paying attention to the stream lately, but seems like we've just run around Lavender Town for the past two days :p I see AJ has finally started to redeem himself, and that's great! Poor guy's a coward by nature, and we gave him the means of escaping :( We can just hope we get rid of the move eventually, though the only place where I see it as a threat at this point, is the victory road. We've already covered how terrible the ledge guarding the way up there is gonna be, so if we end up digging our way out after that, it's gonna suck preeeetty much :p
Also WHAT when did we rename Bird Jesus >:O |
Dat gif, lol!
That makes me remember the moment when we just got out of Pokemon Tower, and some people in the chat were wondering what to do now, so we told them to talk to Fuji to get the Pokeflute, and of course Red eventually managed to do it but before that... "HMM BOOKS... WHY ARE YOU SO PRETTY..." Seriously, he was fixated on Fuji's books for at least 5 minutes! I couldn't help laughing. Yesterday too he got stuck by a pretty lady that was telling him about the oh so great power of the Revives in a corner of the Pokemart, people thought we would be stuck forever, it was epic. Poor Red got a stalker or something that day. |
Bird Jesus got renamed about 12 hours ago I think haha. It's even better now though because people are calling him "Abba Jesus" (Abba meaning Father, as was used by Jesus to refer to God). I love that they managed to do that.
edit: eeeeee Cabbage evolved! Good job Cabbage! |
Oh wow, a lot has happened since I last checked in.
I'm pleased to hear we finally made it out of Lavender Town. c: |
Quote:
And yaay, Cabbage! Hopefully they aren't gonna attempt to buy a Leaf Stone, since we know how well it turned out last time they tried to buy a stone D: Would've been so much better if they'd accidentally gotten a Leaf Stone, since it would've prevented the false prophet from seeing its true form! Aaand we're inching ever so closer to the Safari Zone. Can't wait ;D |
Quote:
|
HAHAHA we ended up in the Fuchsia Gym and almost lost to the first dude. And then won. But got poisoned. And got sent all the way back to Lavender. xD
|
Oh boy. I bet navigating the gym is beyond difficult. I'm sure we're just bumping into all those invisible walls. XD I'm watching the stream now. It looks like we went from one end of Route 8 to the other and just went back to Lavender Town. We will never get to the Safari Zone.
|
Wait what? Why did they even go into the gym before the PC first lmao. Well, probably because of the chaos that is anarchy, but I don't doubt someone was trying to get into the gym :p Luckily the way to Fuschia isn't too hard, especially considering most of the trainers already have been beaten (I assume?), though I think we should've gone down the cycling road instead. Would've been faster and allowed for some more grinding.
Quote:
|
I don't think we have a bike and nobody's bothering to get one at this point. What we really should be doing is more grinding lol. In grass somewhere with 'mon we can take on. AJ and the Keeper are already losing what they gained in relation to Bird Jesus in Lavender. At least maybe they'll hit up the PokéCenter this time and not have to make the trek again- took us three times to learn that when we were taking on the Tower with out base as Saffron Center. xD;
|
tbh I think I want to stay in the bag and not be resurrected. They'll release me, I know it. The Dome followers will do it. I just know they will.
|
I think the problem people have with grinding (or in this game at least) is that they find it boring. We seriously need it though.
This stream is so huge, that's there's a Wikipedia article on it. And it's detailed too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitch_Plays_Pok%C3%A9mon Also here's a funny art for you guys. Spoiler:
Quote:
Edit: Omg they spent like 5 minutes trying to get the Itemfinder from Oak's Assistant. I can't anymore with this game. |
It's okay dudes they let you in with 1 PokéBall even if you have no money. Still get kicked out of you lose it but eh. And anyway creator said he gonna turn off step counter so we can get Surf.
edit: guys we made the latest XKCD! |
It'll be amazing if this becomes the reason why everyone's talking about Pokemon in public. Like 1999.
|
The anticipation! We've been pacing around Fuschia City for over an hour with no goal in sight! :D
|

I love how we've been wondering around Fuchsia City aimlessly for the last hour. XD Also this is the best thing on Imgur right now. http://imgur.com/a/MfG9j |
Don't think I'll take part in it, but this is interesting to hear about and it's getting to be quite a thing too. I even got a Flareon from a Wonder Trade named FalseProphet the other day.
|
Oh my god apparently you can dig yourself out of the Safari Zone. I am laughing so hard omg.
|
lol that dig had me in stitches
|
Decided to check it out, been seeing a lot of Imgur posts so I'm vaguely familiar with the plots and stuff.
I just find it hilarious the first trainer battle I watch they keep going to the S.S. Ticket for for advice haha. |
I don't have a Helix Fossil for guidance. What do I do when the heretic has chosen me?
|
They're about to get next badge, unfortunately the rest of team is underleveled and only Bird Jesus will gain levels.
|
We're battling Koga but about to go down because we made it to him with only Bird Jesus haha. Not that the others would have helped much tbh but they might have a bit. WE JUST NEED TO TRAIN GDI
|
Ok, just woke up. What have I missed? Apparently ran from a Snorlax, failed epically at Koga's gym and dug out of the safari zone. Anything else?
And Oddish evolved? Ok, I wasn't expecting that. That seems a bit random. EDIT: A wikipedia page for this? Really? Definately didn't expect that. Speaking of major sites reporting on this, has anyone seen the BBC article on it? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-26240191 I draw your attention to the caption of the picture halfway down. "Pokemon was even made into a film." I don't even know how to respond to that. |

"Twitch Plays Pokémon encapsulates the best and worst qualities of our user-driven, novelty-hungry age. Today's Internet has an extraordinary propensity for creating things that (1) grow quickly, virally, and organically through word of mouth, (2) provide hours of entertainment, and (3) waste days of peoples' lives for no apparent purpose (see also: Flappy Bird)." I love this quote so much. Also: "...such as the aforementioned Helix Fossil, which players jokingly considered to be a deity" Lol they think we're joking... ;3 |
We totally are part of history. Or at least something massive that will be remembered. It's really cool. :D I think it was the guys on The Patch that said this might be what cements Twitch into the gaming community, so that's kind of a big deal.
Don't know if anyone mentioned, but we did pick up the Super Rod at some point. If we begin to consult it or actually use it remains to be seen. We also used our last two Great Balls trying to catch someone else's Arbok. |
I wonder if the missingno glitch is working there... Hehehehehe. Imagine them getting to Cinnabar and doing that.
|
Just deleted Gust for Mirror Move on Bird Jesus... this should make things interesting.
But yay, Koga has been defeated! |
Quote:
But wow, five badges! Go us! Quote:
Quote:
|
Ugh Mirror Move is not a good move at all. We better do some grinding cause The Keeper could be a great help if it learns Psychic at level 32. Rick Gastly could easily beat Sabrina once it's leveled up by at least 20/25 levels. At least we're making progress. Hopefully we don't get Surf while I sleep. I'd love to witness the craziness in the Safari Zone. If only we consulted the Super Rod more cause then we could catch a good Water type to beat Blaine with and to Surf with.
Edit: We have entered the Safari Zone! Oh boy here it goes...... And we caught a Venonat! Didn't catch it's name though. Fan name Burger King has been established so far. Edit two Venonats! XD |
