Twitch Plays Pok?mon

Archive: 24 posts


Unless you've been hiding under a rock for the past two weeks, you probably know that Twitch (internet streaming website) is playing Pok?mon Red. Currently they have played for two full weeks (14 days) and 8 hours. The trick is that everyone who watches the stream can comment a button and get their input into the game. Of course, considering there are about 25,000 people minimum watching and partaking in the game all the time, it's quite difficult to not only get your own voice through, get through a command that matters and actually see it before the note about it goes into oblivion.

Today was my lucky day, though! After beating Giovanni and embarrassingly being defeated by BLUE afterwards, the players collectively decided to go grind to make the team's weaker Pok?mon, namely AIIIIIIRRR the Lapras and Prophet Helix before moving on to the Victory Road. I got my input into the game while we were reading the Sacred Texts of S.S. Ticket in the middle of a battle between Lapras and a wild Rattata.

(My input is underlined with red.)

The current team consists of AAABAAAJJS (Pidgeot), AATTVVV (Venomoth), AAAAAAAAAA (Nidoking), AA-j (Zapdos (yes, 60,000 people about collectively caught Zapdos)), AIIIIIIRRR (Lapras) and Helix the Almighty (Omanyte).

To get your own input heard, head over to TwitchPlaysPok?mon. (http://www.twitch.tv/twitchplayspokemon) What else, what else... oh right, almost forgot.

HAIL PROPHET HELIX!

It is a bit late but it's still pretty much the most amazing thing the internet has done for a while

I usually have it open in a tab somewhere and occasionally I get involved. Hard to tell if I've made any real difference though

I actually saw the last moments (Pidgeot Vs. Rhydon) of this battle.

EDIT: We really, quite did it this time. Pidgeot forgot Whirlwind, which is good, and learned SKY ATTACK, which is great!

The final battle was a spectacle! Thanks to Battery Jesus, King Fonz, Lord Helix, Air Jordan, Dragonslayer and Bird Jesus, we actually did it! AND I WAS THERE TO WITNESS IT!

HISTORY WAS MADE, GUYS!

I want to see what would happen if Twitch played a Tales game. I could see all the raging happening.2014-03-01 19:17:00

I see you got the Symphonia Chronicles.

But yeah, can't work. Pokemon can because of it's very slow pace, allowing for 70,000 people. Also, all the possibilities for new story due to nonexisting characters, as well as possibilities for permanent failures (such as losing pokemon or items), which heightens the tension. I really don't think Tales or any other JRPG for that matter would work in this format.

I actually haven't gotten Symphonia Chronicles yet, but I plan to soon. It doesn't bother me that a Tales game wouldn't work on Twitch, but it's still a cool thought.

The best thing to come out of this whole thing is the fanart.

Lazergator, the Second Coming of Bird Jesus, Admiral Sentret and Oxxoz the Great and Powerful.

This is going to be a mess.
