Hey I beat Red version when I was 7 with like... a level 100 charizard with: Slash, Ember, Flamethrower, Fire Spin.

That does mean however that Pidgeot's going to have to learn a move that affects ghost pokemon.

 

[Kimaka]

Then let it die!

That's the whole point!

It's not how long will it take to beat the game, it's IF we can beat the game.

Don't artificially extend this experiments life by altering the rules mid-game.

The streamer wanted to see if multiple people can play Pokemon in a chat room. Multiple people are still playing Pokemon in a chat room. I don't see the issue. You can talk about the 'purity' of the experiment all you want but the streamer has always considered modifying the rules if certain obstacles prove to be too hard.

Even as a 7-year old with Pokemon Yellow I diversified. Ended up rocking Charizard/Blastoise/Venusaur/Pikachu/Snorlax/Zapdos.

Four out of six being everyone's team in Yellow is hardly diverse.

 

[royox]

POISON STING missed.

SO DAMN CLOSE.

Serious question: How is Democracy not also a fascinating social experiment?

 

[wmlk]

CRIIII!!!!!T

 

[HK-47]

Does Lift Key have the answers?!

 

[everyday math]

Based sand-attack thank you.

 

[Trey]

pidgecrit!

 

[Keyouta]

Democracy should only be voted on when there hasn't been progress for days, not implemented as a feature.

It's type diverse. I never said it was original.

 

[AcridMeat]

WITH BASED BIRD THE STRENGTH FLOWS FOREVER

 

[highoffcoffee496]

pidgeot is such a boss....getting so many critical hits o_o

 

[Mr. RHC]

Sand Attack will teach him!

 

[Grizzo]

We will fly to victory on his back

Everytime I'll meet a Pidgey in a pokemon game, things are never gonna be the same again.

Just noticed how doomed we are if that ekans poisons our Based Bird.

I don't think we stand a chance against Giovanni anyway with only one Pokemon in our team. Rhyhorn is one tough cookie!

 

[HK-47]

Haha that Slash crit was pathetic.

 

[AcridMeat]

Please it has sand in the name, that doesn't mean sand is effective against it ;_;
edit: THAT DALE GIF HAHAHAHAHA

 

[Deleted member 231381]

critical hits in RBY are based on the speed difference between you and your opponent, iirc, and not just a random percentage as they are from later gens. Persian was absolute top-tier in RBY because it's speed was sufficient that Slash had 100% critical rate and was STAB'd.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

THIS BIRD IS A PRINCE AMONGST MEN

 

[everyday math]

We need to attack here.

 

[fredrancour]

Serious question: How is Democracy not also a fascinating social experiment?

An assumption that the majority of voters know exactly what to do.

 

[Timeaisis]

Based Sand-attack!

 

[Dragon Puncher]

I just hope those in favor of democracy use strategy guides and microtransactions and cheat codes. No reason to take longer than needed in a video game. Challenge is for suckers who have nothing better to do.

I wouldn't mind using cheat codes if a 100k people were pressing buttons on my controller at the same time.

 

[Blizzard]

I think I was reading that in pokemon red/blue, critical hit chance was based on speed, so fast high-damage pokemon can be really good at that.

 

[Corronchilejano]

Sand Attack will teach him!

Sand Attack x 6 -> Switch to The Keeper = Less grinding.

 

[Cess007]

How the hell we can select Sand-Attack ad Whirlwind so much in a single battle?? xD

 

[harmonize]

Yeah. Don't forget, there is a rock puzzle where you need to use the menu for every push and are able to put it in an unsolvable state, where you have to reset the screen and start over.

Not for every push, just for the first push when you walk into a new "room" of Victory Road.

people these days see a game with eight billion total Pokemon to capture and items that make training tons of them possible and they steamroll through it with the 'givens' and then complain of ease

Why are they using the Lift Key so much?

Ok that makes more sense; thanks

Giovanni's next @_@

 

[kahboomkin]

based Bird Jesus

 

[EchoChamber]

yeah pidegot won

 

[Bedameister]

yes now lets go for giovanni

 

[papercamm]

Pidgeot is a magnificent being.

 

[everyday math]

ALRIGHT ITS TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT!!

 

[Dug]

Bird Jesus the GOAT.

Yellow is different because you can get all the starters. I only cared about the starters back then.

Yup, and this solution is much better and more pure than him hacking the game to allow infinite steps in Safari Zone which was the plan before this system was implemented.

I love this new system of anarchy/democracy. And the people who don't like it should be in chat voting "anarchy" rather than whining about it.

 

[Dares]

So Based is hurts.

Pocket Sand!

 

[Gin]

what mons does Giovanni have ?
got a bad feeling we gonna get rocked hard

No, the campaigns really are piss-easy regardless. Trainer AI is absolutely laughable in the mainline games (surprisingly, in PBR there was actually solid AI).

Lift Key gets you where you need to be.

Then I disagree with the streamer.

Just because he started the experiment doesn't mean that he is right.

Just imagine if we had the democracy option during "The ledge", or "The tree".

The only thing I agree with altering is Safari zone so we don't have a limit on steps, due to the amount of inputs with how large the stream is it would be impossible.

 

[ratcliffja]

Do you have something against Team Rocket?

 

[Shinypogs]

Bird cannot be denied ^-^
Now do we smartly go heal or do we rush the boss is the Question.

 

[Lexxism]

102k people are watching BASED PIDGEOT!

 

[kuroneko0509]

Lift Key wants to replace Helix Fossil, probably?
