TASBot plays Pokemon Blue NSC but this video is only

[@happycamperds9917]

“Pokémon champions are honored for their exploits here.” Quite literally.

[@FourthDerivative]

Things I learned from this video: -People have very strong opinions about the gen 1 starters. -A level 5 Spearow can't KO a level 9 Weedle with one critical Peck, you need to use two non-critical Pecks. -Even TASBot goes over estimate sometimes.

[@misterturkturkle]

Bulbasaur or gtfo

[@FourthDerivative]

@@misterturkturkle TBH I always picked Bulbasaur as a kid, because of the early game advantage against both Brock and Misty. But I was really more of a Charmander fan at heart.

Wow, who would’ve guessed that the Elite Four consisted of 4 Bug Catchers and you only needed to beat 3/4 of them to be a champion! Amazing.

[@YoshisaurUnderscore]

My favorite part was by far the Level 9 Weedle fight. I especially liked the part where they couldn't kill it with a critical peck, so they did it with 2 non-critical pecks instead. And then when they took 2 critical Poison Stings get knocked down into redbar? It was so good!

[@TIMTV69]

"Bulbasaur is the worst starter" You can tell they are playing it differently than a normal play through. Otherwise, Bulbasaur is the strongest starter, as he is effective against more gyms and more of the story based battles in the game. So.....

[@xVDRx]

When they say worst starter, they mean because of the starting battles. Not because of his effectiveness against battles as a whole. Bulbasaur is 100% the hardest to START the game with, but quickly gets really good later on.

[@TIMTV69]

@@xVDRx He's best against the starting gyms, and important battles. But I know what you mean. That's why I said you can tell they plat it differently lol

Something that can be done on a lot of the classic cartridge based systems, because of how "close to the board" the game is running. Modern games have multiple layers of systems that filter the players input. The Matrix game for original xbox had a console that allowed ace on the console itself.
