Pokémon Blue by eddaket in

[@somegal-89]

I hate when I try to show some new trainer with his Bulbasaur where the first gym is and by the time I get there he’s replaced his Bulbasaur with some kind of genetic experiment and already has 7 badges.

[@hollycloutier2727]

These guys were actually great entertainers. This was like a two-man standup routine with comedic timing

[@pisse3000]

Indeed. That one is amazing.

[@Christiangamer22]

the fact that the champion fight only exists after beating Agatha is actually really cool, because that shows that after you beat her, your rival JUST beat Lance, and so when you walk up to him is right after their fight. Cool little plot hidden away in the code.

[@welbers99]

But their pokemon are at full Heath right after their get defeated

Many thanks

you da real MVP

[@stefanmichel96]

shenanagans and eddaket are the best! they always explain their runs, so every dummie (like me) can get what they do. greetings from Germany!

[@SatoshiEK]

That was the best run I've seen in my entire life. Eddaket and SheNanagans are amazing players and also amazing entertainers. Good job

Runner/commentator are really great in this run. Everything is well enough explained and they are both very entertaining. imo anyways, wish I could have caught this live.

I don't think I've seen this run at a GDQ before. Good to see some new Pokémon runs.

[@Seemond3]

[@ZenataUSA]

Seemond3 is GOAT

[@chococreepers]

I love the comedy in this run, where they pretend to do something and are really doing something else, i.e. the coins for abra and the trainer fly

[@TheSticknstone2]

At 11:09 , Did... did someone just jump behind the couch?

[@SirJorb]

Nah, they did a combat roll behind the couch!

[@chuck110384]

Poor Bulb...I chose that pokemon when I first started playing this game and I thought he did just fine I thought. Probably my favorite playthrough was with him as compared to the other two. Not sure why there's so much Bulbasaur hate. Loved that little guy. lol

[@rareroe305]

Red/Blue truly were held together by sticky note adhesive and the prayers of the developers.

[@loulou3676]

This is the first one of these where i actually got bamboozed by the runner pretending they messed up.

[@segasword64]

I love how they thought of a new strat on the spot during the marathon. Shit was dope af.

[@thesaucypickle9866]

idk why everyone talks shit about bulbasaur he is literally the best mon for the gyms

[@ISesseriI]

Because he's slower/impossible to use in most catagories I believe

[@janisir4529]

Bulbasaur is also useless after Misty casually.

[@thesaucypickle9866]

+Jani SIr no you mean after surge cause bulbasaur beats him p easy

[@janisir4529]

holy shit the guy who talked about walk through wall glitch nearly shit himself i felt sorry for him xD shena is always very entertaining and the other guy too really like the meme runs and great work this year at sgdq

[@AeoLynx_]

A Seth Rollins shirt and an Off Topic shirt within 10 feet of each other. Seems like my kind of event. xD

[@VexedPersona]

Bulbasaur is the best, those people just can't get over that fact since they're blinded by their runs.

[@Icesan4096]

IMO, Bulbasaur is not bad. He's basically God when it comes to the first two gyms.

[@someguy9571]

In Gen 1, Leech Seed + Toxic is basically a guaranteed win.

[@therealmeteora]

Now I'm curious, they said the champion fight is not activated until you beat Agatha, so what happens if you warp into the map where you fight the champion? will he simply not be there?

[@lightyagami3492]

Perhaps it crashes the game? Idk I've never seen that tried before.

Okay so thanks for the tips i'll pick up a Gameboy Color this week!

[@renegadeguardian]

As much as I like this run, I'd kind of like to see some different Pokemon games for a change. Where's the love for the later gens?

[@Izandaia]

Gen 1 is really the only Gen with these sort of game-breaking glitches. At least, ones that are reasonable to do in a marathon setting. EDIT: The preceding comment was and is flat-out incorrect. Many gens have glitches that let you skip large portions of the game. They do get rarer and less game-breaking as time goes on though.

[@SolomonCornish]

Werster has done gold, leaf green and soul silver at these before, but from what I've heard gen 6 is just horrible to run

[@ZyflairGriffane]

Unfortunately, Gen 6 is "Acquire Lucario ASAP, run becomes free."

[@SkulShurtugalTCG]

The current Sun/Moon world record is over 5 hours long, and there's really no way to make it any shorter than that. It comes down to, the newer the game, the less you can skip.

[@renegadeguardian]

Oh please. They've run like half the Final Fantasy series before. You know, those RPG's that are usually multiple discs and take 20+ hours to finish? Yeah, no, length is no excuse whatsoever.

[@Ryo]

this was such a great year

[@TheMatherGamer]

Great commentary!

[@jamesstortz936]

Hey, GDQ, Shenanigans, Is it common knowledge or is there a guide on how to walk through walls to the entrance of Indigo Plateau/Victory Road? I am asking because I know how to find it consistently in case people didn't know it was possible. (I am making a run video that includes it. Also, I would love to talk about a new category.)

[@jamesstortz936]

BTW, thank you guys! I found these runs and events inspiring enough to pull out the gameboy (er, emulator) and get into pokemon again. I'm feeling up to trying out the generations I missed, too! Keep up the great work for a great cause. God bless!

[@RockR277]

Whats wrong with Bulbasaur?

[@KnuxMaster368]

Slowest starter to solo in the game by far,

[@CadDriftarus]

The Bulbasaur lines are great in general, but are pretty bad in Kanto, mostly because of what all the Gyms, Trainers, and Rocket members have. Bulby's especially bad in Speedruns. It's similar to Chikorita's situation, where Chiko is a great defensive Pokemon with good setup capabilities... everywhere explcept Johto.

[@cameroncorrosive925]

this was awesome to watch :)

[@danielwood82]

I always picked Bulb as my starter and stand behind that decision.

[@Tefl0nc0ugar]

How do you learn how to do this and other speed runs?

[@spookytenefix279]

Search "How to speedrun Pokemon" on internet.

[@JMF611]

I love games done quick, and all the runners do well - but when they start talking about probabilities (45% etc), just reminds me of that Leroy Jenkins video hahaha

[@Shugs1994]

Poor Bulba... so bullied 😂 glad to see that Oddish love carrying over though

[@Godzzbinzz]

What’s the difference between a marathon run and speed run?

[@Artista_Frustrado]

i wonder how much of this is do-able in the 3DS ports?

[@thekiss2083]

artistafrustrado Should be all of it. They didn't make any changes to the games besides adding wireless multiplayer. Every glitch I've tried on 3ds has worked :-)

[@eagleslegend36]

15:10 That explanation tho. Cant say i could have done better though. lol

[@defianthound407]

Bulbasaur is the best based on the gym lay out. The only gyms you have trouble with is Sabrina an Blane. You either resist or your super effective. Kinda walled by he grass gym tho.

[@calebschlesser948]

i said this in twitch chat and I'll say it here. That never gets any easier

[@thesaucypickle9866]

I wish they'd put what category this was in the title

[@PikalaxALT]

Is the point of opening the menu after blacking out, simply to refresh the text ID in memory?

[@SatoshiEK]

Why all the videos from this year's SGDQ are lagging so much?

[@AlexusDelphi]

There was a desync a lot on the stream

[@SatoshiEK]

That is not what I mean. Sometimes, I would reaload the page and it woul sync again. That was happening only with SGDQ videos.

[@manguy01]

Seems to me that you _can_ do the Elite 4 backwards. But the 5th fight would still be the champion. Makes sense to me.

[@jonahruntz9818]

idk im not the biggest pokemon fan, what is with them and "Oddish" aka bulbasaur?

[@StephenIC]

Nice Seth Rollins shirt on the couch

[@TheMaskarad]

first time I'm seeing Shen on the couch

[@pyrosianheir]

Jesus.... the early pokemon games are a broken, exploitable mess of a game. Also, Eddaket and Shen were really fun to listen to while watching this.

[@TheMobiusEffect]

Why not turn off animations? Wouldn't that save a ton of time?

[@telekiller7]

they did. the actual animations are a lot flashier than shaking the screen a tiny bit.

[@psinjo]

can someone please clarify why the mewtwo was listening to him before he beat giovanni? i know lack of badges has screwed over several runs at gdq in the past, was it just good luck? he didn't comment on it at all, which is why i'm confused

[@eddaket]

The disobedience only applies to Pokemon that aren't originally yours. If the Mewtwo was traded to me, it would have been a much longer Giovanni fight, but because we caught it, it would always obey us

[@psinjo]

really? i always thought even your own pokemon could disobey you if they got too high of a level. thanks

[@RazekiYT]

I want to do this run now XD

[@shakenbaker515]

That RoosterTeeth Off Topic shirt though

[@2Syndras1Cup]

I thought the only way to get missingno was that damn island :/

[@1lomi901]

Are you not supposed to not be able to use high level pokemon without badges ? Is there any chance mewtoo would not listen to the player ?

[@TheBlueWizzrobe]

You only need badges to use high level Pokemon that were traded to you. If you caught it yourself then it will listen just fine.

[@blueberryblues5644]

The Blue Wizzrobe This is a gen one only thing? cause in later games you for sure can't overtrain.

[@Iris_Descent]

[@Schnirsma44]

Why did they say " Kill the animals " ? Can someone explain this to me pls

[@jebus571]

It's a reference to the Super Metroid Race they do at the end of the event. Killing the animals saves time, saving them deviates from the fastest path, but saves the animals.

[@Schnirsma44]

Oh ok. Thank you

[@KamPOV01]

+Jes M not all heroes wear capes.

[@heheitsjohnE]

it's normally referred to as saving frames instead of killing animals. Being speed runs and all you'd want to be as efficient with movement, so at the end of the game you can save frames by opting not to save the animals.

[@DemitriX.]

[@yowhazgood4505]

[@blueberryblues5644]
