Even with steps disabled, those 30 Pokeballs will vanish very fast. It is going to be exceptionally difficult.

The whole world is watching and playing.

It is a shame though that the host has interfered. A lot of the praise I find on Twitter for this stream comes from folks who believe that this is an excellent social experiment, with some specifically expressing the belief that it proves that trolls can be bested by the mob. I wonder how many of these individuals are aware of the extent to which the host has neutered trolls' attempts to sabotage the run. :\

There are two required items in the Safari Zone (Gold Teeth and Surf), you get thrown out after a certain number of steps (which is not particularly forgiving for either) and it costs 500 each time to try. Once you're below 500 and out of trainers to fight/stuff to sell for money without having acquired those two items, Gen I becomes unwinnable.

Disabling the step counter (as mentioned above) would help and lot but is a major interference. Far worse than disabling a button he's actually going to alter the game itself? Pffft. I think on the basis of the Safari Zone alone it might've been better to do this with a later game.

EDIT the first: So they made it through the directional pads in the Team Rocket Base in Celadon... and used an Escape Rope.

Here's a cool restream with a chill chat that's actually discussing what's going on.

Bonus: there's Tetris!

The purity of the run was lost the moment he first interfered, but I quite agree that this will be the greatest interference yet. As far as this project was meant to be the Internet coming together to take Red across the finish line, I see his interference as both necessary and appropriate; but as far this project became a social experiment and a troll-infested challenge for the vigilant heroes to overcome, I see his interference as a deathblow, maybe even a betrayal. Naive and well-intentioned, sure, but a betrayal nonetheless.

I think we can agree that between the game's many failure points (Saffron City guard, Safari Zone, Cinnabar Island[?]) and the mob's demonstrated inabilities, this game would have proven unwinnable. But that's not really the point, is it? The point is the satisfaction of knowing, empirically, that the game was or was not beatable with malicious input present.

I'm too lazy to make use of it, but a number of people have offered console commands for Firefox / Chrome that allow you to filter out every single one of the game's eight button commands from the Twitch chat. Thus, you can (for the most part) use the proper channel's chatroom to actually converse with fellow fans. I'm not sure if the number of people doing this is favorable vs. the number of people present in the Tetris channel, but it's something for you to look into if you like.

In other news, someone on the Neogaf forums created this animated gif depicting the events which lead to the release of Jay Leno and Abby. It seems that the chat was either too stupid to hit Up along with the B button during this time, allowing the trolls to just keep mashing A effortlessly, or else did try but sadly the trolls' button inputs were the ones that got read first. If it was the former, then hopefully they know better now: in the future, half of you mash B but the other half mash Up. If it was the latter, then I think there's no better proof than this that the PC is precisely where the trolls want you to go. Honestly, it's a miracle that they even managed to get Pidgeot back out. The sad thing is that because of the cult status the Helix Fossil has attained, you know the mob is going to fall into temptation once they reach Cinnabar.

The apes are stuck in the TR maze, like gerbils.

For the love of god though, turn twitch chat off if you value your brain.

Fun. Cute. A nice nod to the Zelda timeline. Hopefully you'll update it after the project ends (one way or another) so that the far right goes past Silph Co.

I can only imagine the reactions Pidgeot, Omastar, and Flareon are generating on Pokémon Showdown right now.

It's sad to say but I don't think it will be possible to defeat the E4, purely because it is 5 consecutive battles. Throw in unreliable use of healing items and a poorly trained team with a wide range of levels and poor movesets, and it'll be nearly impossible.

But it'll be exciting to see them give it a go!

It is possible to solo the E4 at a high enough level; with the amount of useless grinding they do, they might have a decent enough Pidgeot to take them on, provided they don't release it or something.

A high level ghost can do it too. Ghosts are super easy to level in this, most wild mon cant touch them.

All they really need is the PP and the levels. If Pidgeot is given HM02 right before the League and they manage to not overwrite Quick Attack, then at a high enough level that should be sufficient to OHKO the entire league. Fly for Agatha's ghosts, either move for every other Pokémon.

Of course, ideally they also get their Surfer up to Level 55 or higher. Should make it easier to deal with Bruno's Onix amongst others.
