How Fast Can You Beat Pokemon Blue with Just A Kangaskhan??

Playthrough Rules:
1. Only my selected pokemon in battle
2. No items in battle

2. I play the game at 4x game speed (238 frames per second)
3. My Pokemon have perfect DVs

Terms:

That rage glitch is hilarious. The montage at the end with counter was epic!!! Hahaha.

[@barebear3]

That glitch is crazy. I think it was a Jrose video that I learned it from, but when you miss with rage for the first time, the accuracy becomes 1/256 if I am remembering correctly.

[@anthonyizquierdo5467]

Looking forward to this one! I’m guessing it’ll be behind Alakazam but ahead of everyone else so far!

[@anthonyizquierdo5467]

I would actually love to see the middle stage starters. Charmeleon Ivysaur and wartortle. It would be interesting to see which of them is better as opposed to their final forms.

[@SteveMPlays]

I have added them to my list: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lgpziVbPNm817z-kMphOtMFi-HOVxIBC8jq_cdUz0LE/edit?usp=sharing

[@live2fishrourke35]

Did a great job keep up the great work...you did a great job putting effort into the run giving the veiwer an acuall fun time watching as a life-long gen 1 fan its great to see people lile you giving the original games the respect it deserves

[@SteveMPlays]

I appreciate the kind words, I don't plan on stopping. I'll try once a week, but I'll probably take two weeks on some of the longer ones.

[@robertwolff3580]

Excited to see Starmie

[@kangaskdan]

Woop woop, hyped for this one! My guess is Kangaskhan will come just behind porygon

[@kangaskdan]

Oh damn, he smashed it!

[@kangaskdan]

And oh god the rage misses XD

[@djembejambi]

Enjoying your style. New sub.

[@SteveMPlays]

Thank you very much, I hope I won't disappoint with my upcoming mdb style video.

[@WarlordWulf]

the misses at the end haha

[@SteveMPlays]

I figured watching me rage over rage was really cool.

[@WiredSquid]

Gotta vote on venomoth let’s gets that run

[@SteveMPlays]

I have added it to my list: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lgpziVbPNm817z-kMphOtMFi-HOVxIBC8jq_cdUz0LE/edit?usp=sharing

[@Speedrunner0218]

After Electabuzz, you should do venomoth for......no reason I predict kangaskhan will beat the game in under 3:30 Edit: just a couple minutes off

[@onlinebully8637]

No way rage at 0% accuracy loll

[@SteveMPlays]

Nobody can explain this glitch either, and trust me I asked. When I told Scott's thoughts about a different pokemon and a weird circumstance (vaporeon being attacked by loreleis slowbro despite a resistance and good AI) we eventually learned from testing that it has something to do with 2 water moves being on the moveset and it then choosing the better of two bad moves.

[@onlinebully8637]

Ahahahahhahaha the miss counter

[@SteveMPlays]

That was one of the funnest parts to a video I ever made because nobody would believe me if I didn't make it part of the video.

[@jawonjones1877]

Brock level 9

[@SteveMPlays]

I appreciate the optimism, but comet punch wasn't going to get through Brock that easy.
