How Fast Can You Beat Pokemon Blue with Just An Alakazam??

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

Awesome run, can’t wait to see more!

[@SteveMPlays]

Thanks! 👍

[@bigjimbice]

Congratulations on such an amazing achievement, can't wait to see your channel grow even bigger.

[@SteveMPlays]

I hope so too!

[@masterbuildermc5224]

Looking Forward to Butterfree!

[@kangaskdan]

Nice video, man!!!

[@SteveMPlays]

Thanks!

[@jawonjones1877]

This man sounds so nice and friendly. Love watching these.

[@SteveMPlays]

I appreciate the kind responses, this week I didn't come out with a video because I've upgraded my setup a bunch. My next video is venomoth, then primeape. But after those, there's going to be major improvements.

[@thelongestpass9118]

I wish alakazam had a better moveset, good job on the setup

[@andrewknight9619]

Sweet one of my favorite Pokemon too!

[@swingforthefences3251]

Pretty great quality for a first video!

[@e22ddie46]

Imagining this as the "so anyway I started blasting" meme

[@SteveMPlays]

So anyways, I started blasting with psychic and next thing I knew, the game was over.

[@eudstersgamersquad6738]

I’m here from a comment on Jrose11’s channel! Happy to see someone else trying this out! I wish you the most success on your channel from a fellow small KZbinr!

[@SteveMPlays]

Out of curiosity was it a good comment? I haven't asked anyone to comment about me, and I've had a few people tell me I'm a less talented jrose and stole his idea. I'm just doing my own thing, and I'm having fun.

[@eudstersgamersquad6738]

@@SteveMPlays Someone said they go to sleep listening to Jrose11 and then below that comment someone commented that your channel is a good channel to go to sleep listening to as well.

[@WarlordWulf]

Great first attempt, just need to work on the audio quality :)

[@SteveMPlays]

Working on it!

[@Speedrunner0218]

I can't wait to see more from small creators. Just need to work on your scripting and audio.

[@SteveMPlays]

Will do, Thanks for the help!

[@crazy_sniperx6217]

😃

[@dranziken]

you could count backwards from 5 like the old arcade machines did when you were KO'd and needed to put in more coins (though those counted down from 10)

[@SteveMPlays]

Even now I struggle to figure out what to do with one-shots.

[@dranziken]

my friend named his Alakazam Spoons too. maybe everyone did (I never used it)

[@SteveMPlays]

Possibly, the nickname is great. It would have been twice as funny if I named it forks though.

[@AT-il2ej]

Good run man! And only like 30 minutes slower than Jrose who did it before you. You're such an expert! And definitely not someone who ripped off an idea from a creator and managed to make it significantly worse! Good for you!

[@SteveMPlays]

I mean everyone has to start somewhere. That was my first video. I'm trying to be more like Scott's Thoughts than Jrose. I do get advice from the guy after all.

[@radicalwriter6817]

I didn't hear anything, I'm guessing you didn't do any coin flip

[@theglorifiedreaper8104]

Where's the Color?

[@extremeflipz3318]

Too Bad you couldn't finish without losing.
