Well it's not like they were ever going to catch something to use it on.

There is one single humongous stumbling block.

Surf.

Which requires you to enter the Safari Zone.

And get an item within 500 steps.

You need to pay a fee every time you enter.

Isn't this actually capable of making things unwinnable? I didn't think RBY had an infinite source of cash outside the Elite Four, so if they somehow exhaust all their possible funds at that point in the game they're screwed.

In some ways this is a much more realistic depiction of pokemon. You don't travel the world and beat all 8 gyms in a couple days. It takes you a day to travel from one town to another, you lose to the gym MASTERS tons of times before finally besting them, and training your pokemon is a long and arduous process.

Also, you walk into walls at least 15 times a minute.

Someone appears to be savestating every once in a while, so maybe that's the last resort if the game becomes legitimately unwinnable. Also in theory I suppose you could farm money by spamming Meowth's Payday at wild Pokemon over and over.

Some group of people who hate fun are apparently coordinating their efforts because there keeps now being pages of about 100 people using the same command all at once.

I think they're from Reddit.

It's probably a guy with a hundred bot accounts.

Reddit has known about this stream for a couple of hours already, so I don't think it's them.

Yeah, there's only so long they can stay at Cerulean City before it crosses from being amusing to tedious, it would be nice if they could at least make it to Vermillion by tomorrow.

I feel like the bot is against the spirit of the thing in some way, but 90% of the time by the time the commands actually reach they are completely ineffectual and that's entertaining too.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

It took over a day to get this far, I wouldn't really expect them to get anywhere quick. It's entertaining to check in every few hours though.

I fully expect this will drive some kid legit crazy.

Turns out 7300 viewers collaborators was the number required to beat misty.

I wonder how many accounts are just bots piping random commands into the chat.
