TwitchPlaysPokemon

So I found this hilarious stream on twitch.tv where someone managed to hook an emulator up the the twitch chat so the chat controls the game, hilarity ensues.

The whole thing is lagging like crazy

They've been circling Vermillion City for what feels like 6 days   

They made it to vermillion? They spent 10 hours trying to defeat Misty!

I watched them trying to beat Brock and they kept trying to use a Nugget on Geodude.

They are trying to cut down a tree. Operative phrase here is trying.


Edit: They finally cut down the tree!

haha that s so freaking hilarious because everyone is giving commands and some trolled with the start button, xD

They ended up turning the text speed down to medium lol. These trolls man.

O h m y g o d!

A few hours ago i saw their playing time is like 2 days or something... so long and still being messed up by some trolls. I dont think that anyone would stay up that long to play that game with these trolls.

This is their playtime http://puu.sh/6XaKj.png

Man, they are taking forever on this route. Trolls keep causing them to jump down the ledge so they have to bactrack.

That s freaking 3 days and on top of that, it s a freaking old game since 1996/1997 and since our childhood times we knew how that game is played. and if we knew that how to play through dozen of times ,then it would be even within a day xD

But so far they havent even reached 15 percent of the game XD

Yup. It's pretty great.

I've been throwing in a few, non-troll inputs. But I am mostly watching while playing on my X version.

haha imagine if they start playing pokemon emerald edition or something and landing in some kind of cave where there are places to fall down if you are not fast enough, then there would be a big problem with these trollolols

Oh god. I can't wait to see them do Seafoam Island. LOL

yeah that one, i think. I cant rememeber the new forms of pokemon. All i can remember are these from blue and red

Ice Path in Gold and Silver would be funny as hell to watch them do. They'd probably take days in that place alone.

Edit: Someone in chat just made a wonderful point. The Safari Zone is gonna suck.

That's if they ever get to the Safari Zone!

That is true, they've been on this same route for over an hour now. I think they've only fought one trainer on the route.

Edit: Finally, another battle.

OH GOD. They just used the Thunderbolt TM on Rattata.

Haha, glad it's not my game of Pokemon they're playing.

Agreed.

Now we have some people trying to coordinate others so they can finally circumvent these ledges.

My stream keeps buffering every 30 seconds otherwise I'd be watching it more. 21,000 people must be lagging it.

Bloody hell its on 21k consistent viewers, when i joined it was 1.5k...

Yup, and due to all of the inputs, they can't make it off this route. Twitch is really bad at Pokemon.

Im amazed they managed to beat Lt surge to be honest
