Playing Pokemon as Team Rocket!

Alright, I think we're live. Let's, uh, fire off the missiles. Alright, so we've got ourselves the very first multi-stream. This is very exciting. Now one caveat, Twitch will notice, and maybe YouTube as well, that there's an exclamation mark baby command. And you'll want to press that if I'm away from keyboard, if I'm away from stream, that's what's going on. So, uh, let's see, and the most interesting in the multi-chat, I can't get TikTok, so I'm gonna try to move TikTok over here. All right, so now I've got Hey, how's it going? Welcome. I'm not sure how to pronounce your name, but I'm glad that you're here. Whoa, Annie, thank you for the resub! I super appreciate it. That's 61 months. Thank you very much, I really appreciate that. Oh, interesting, the, the alerts almost seem redundant with this chat because it seems like this chat covers it. It's pretty awesome. Annie, how the heck are you? Thank you so much for being here. It seemed like you were ready. So you can see here on, on stream there's a combined chat, which is against TOS, but we're gonna see if we can get away with it. I'll take it down if if I get penalized for it. Um, I'm doing really well, honestly. I'm so excited to play this ROM hack, like very excited. It's a, it's a blind playthrough, don't know anything about it other than you can steal players' Pokémon, you play as Team Rocket, and there's a unique story. So we're gonna get into it. Hey CG, how the heck are you? It's good to see you again, welcome in. All right. So again, the command is for if I step out, you know, step away, then let me know. Hey, how's it going, Justin Channel? Yes, I am actually— I'm planning a new What If video very soon, so look forward to that. Found out my badges look— yeah, yeah, they look super nice. You're right, very cohesive, very cohesive. CG, how you been, man? It's been a minute. And just the channel, thank you for being my first ever YouTube live chatter. It's really cool to see YouTube comments in the combined chat. Pretty awesome. All right, so without further ado, let's get into the game. You know, I actually don't have a sense for whether or not how many Twitch viewers or TikTok views I have. So hey, Mayor, what's up? Team NASA, Team NASA. Wait, why? Oh, because rocket. Hey, nice, welcome, welcome. Thanks for being here on the TikTok stream. All right, so let's load up this ROM and give it a shot. You guys have to let me know how the volume levels are and everything. Oh, you know what, I forgot to change the amateur hour. There we go, you should be able to hear it now. Can you hear it okay? Ultiball Gringo the other day. Oh yeah. Oh, no problem, Annie. Well, thanks for watching. It was good. I didn't quite get to Ultra Ball, but I got pretty close, so I'm pretty happy with that. Okay, you hear the unique opening, which is pretty awesome. Unique music. And that's the Mewtwo cry. Okay, here's the first screen. Hey, how's it going, Ry? Welcome. As much as it let me, as in TikTok limits. Oh, got it. I didn't know that. That's really weird. Hey, welcome, new DJ. How's it going? Various buttons will be explained in order of their importance. Moves the main character, right. Confirm a choice, right. Exit, yeah. Yeah, right, good to see you. How you been? The volume's low? Okay, I'll turn it up. Is that better? Not bad, right? Doing good. Oh yeah, I'm actually— I actually am pretty close, Annie. Yeah, okay, that's obvious. Press start. Yeah. Oh, of annoying you with accidentally bugging. Wow, that's great. Things appeared finally to be looking up in the feudal region of Kanto. Since the end of the Great War 10 years ago, the region's new champion, Lance, managed to restore its damaged economy and pave the way for a new age of economic and technological prosperity. Not everyone were quite so happy with their new post-war government, however. Mobs, street gangs, and other forms of petty organized crime soon arose, each vowing to restore the region to its former independent glory. None, however, were as powerful or as respected as the notorious Team Rocket. This is the darkest Pokémon fan game I've ever seen. Yeah, I'm excited. Superstar, how's it going, by the way? Hey, Trash Baby, welcome! Reconstruction era Pokémon with those dang carpetbaggers. I don't get the reference. Hey, Smith, welcome, welcome, welcome! This infamous organization would regularly scour the region's city streets in search of eager-minded, impoverished trainers to prove their worth among its ranks, then task them with organized acts of theft, assault, and corruption. It is with one of these young trainers that our story begins. Essie, how's it going? Whoa, this is so weird. Why, hello there! Welcome to Team Rocket! You are one of the lucky few to be allowed entry into our ranks. For your own sake, I hope you will prove yourself worthy of it. Now, if you're like any of our other new recruits, I'm guessing you've never owned a Pokémon before in your life. In that case, I'm happy to say that this is your lucky day. Each of you will receive one of these beauties yourselves. Don't like it? Well then, you ungrateful little B-words, I suggest you go out and steal yourself something else. This is a criminal organization, not a charity, for crying out loud. Anyhow, the chitchat's out of the way. How about you tell me a little about yourself, huh? Look at that, I'm a grunt. Hey, Ree, hey, thanks for being on YouTube, that's pretty awesome. Oh, Annie, those emotes are so good from Moonsh. Yeah, it's a multi-stream, it's my first one. My name. Okay, chat, I need an edgy— I need an edgy Team Rocket grunt name. Hey, Romax, welcome to the stream. No normal stream— no normal name will do. I've got to think of a really edgy edgelord-grade name. Sergey, that's a good one. Okay, I want a few more suggestions, but that one is a banger suggestion. Best mod. No, I could never take that name on. Shadow. Okay, that's a little too on the nose, Superstar. I want something that's like edgelord grade, but not, not too— not like Shadow the Hedgehog grade. I mean, Shadow the Hedgehog really is edge, that is true, but I think Sergey's is is up there. I forgot my water. Oh no. Um, I would like a few more suggestions on a really edgy name. Leafy is here. I mean, you're not wrong. Just watch The Wire, just naming the bad guys. The Wire? What were the names of Donnie's Nuzlocke mons? Oh no, Onix. I think Trash Baby wins with Sergei. I think Sergei it is. Donvid, my gosh. No, Sergei's good. Sir— Sergei. Also, I'm using keyboard controls, which just feels so foreign to me. If it's allowed, let me know and I can use a controller instead. Yeah, Sergei is a good one. Doomsday. I think that's slightly too long, actually. I think Sergei is gonna be what we go with. Sergei. Yep, fake and gay. How's it going, Josh Grant? Welcome in, man. This is so awesome. Usually I'm watching you stream, and this time you're watching me. A new life of violence, thievery, and other assorted misdemeanors awaits you. Stay away from the police, abide by your superiors' orders, and never show mercy to anyone. Do this, and maybe one day you can rise to become as powerful as me. Who knows? Now get moving, we ain't got all day. Hey Goog, welcome! Hey Smiley Face, welcome! Whoa, it's the Team Rocket ranks! Hey Christy, welcome! They call him the streamer. Okay ladies, listen up. I'm only gonna say this once. You are officially Team Rocket grunts. Yes, that's right. But don't go patting yourselves on the back just yet. Until each of you have proven yourselves out in the field, you're nothing but a bunch of pipsqueaks to me. This is chilling dialogue. Hey, how's it going, Aphmau? No, no, you're not dreaming. This is real. Welcome back. Now you're going to receive your first mission in a little bit. Before then, we have a couple of things we need to get sorted. In the crates behind me, you will find your very first, first Pokémon. Starting from the top left here, I want each of you to come up one by one to get your little— I missed it. You will then proceed to the top floor through the staircase on my right. One of our friendly neighborhood science geeks up there will then provide you an HM for Fly. Okay, that's convenient. Once you have this HM, and once you've managed to summon enough balls to steal yourself a proper bird Pokémon, then you fly your sorry butts to Mt. Moon as soon as conceivably possible and wait for further instructions. Grant you That was the most insane thing I've ever read, Grant. Is that understood? Yes, sir. Mount Moon. Ooh, I injected the ooh-woo myself. Well then, get to it. Okay. Was that Rattata? Oh, I'll pick this. That's too bad, you're getting it anyways. Oh, Ryan beat Pearl. Oh no. Oh, the, the Shining Diamond or the, the remakes, the Diamond and Pearl remakes. That's awesome. Is that fairy barf on his head or is that hair? I'm not sure. I will, I will, smiley face. What if it was David v. Goliath because David versus Goliath, like when David fights Goliath in the Bible? I mean, that's a good point. I never thought about that before, although my— I had an email address, Goog, that was, uh, actually David Pwnz Goliath. It was insane that that was my email address, but for a while it was. Sergey received a Rattata. All right guys, nickname. I need— imagine this will be a Raticate at some point. What name should this female Rattata have? It's gotta be edgy. Again, there are guidelines for nicknames. You can't just call someone McJoey or something like that. It's got to be something edgy. Uh, I see Annie's been going back to the Kimball Donald stream archives for the names. Schlurp unfortunately is not edgy. I need something edgy. Babushka, Rizzo the Rat. Okay, Rizzo's good, but this is a female Rattata. Frank, Ratsid, like rancid, tax fraud, or mayonnaise. You know, um, smiley face, I'm not sure about that one. Jerma, Yolanda, Yolanda, Tempest, Tempest, Tempest. Oh, that is perfect. Big fan of Tempest. It's like there's an impending storm that the adver— that the opponent is not ready for. Tempest, that's a good one. How's it going, Matt? What's up, dude? Superstar, big fan of your suggestion. Tempest, Cratchout, and yeah, is that even a name? Yeah, Tempest is great. We're going with Tempest. Next in line now. Move it! What if it's just all Rattatas? Hey you, only one Rattata grunt, you hear me? Okay, they're all Rattata. What happens if I do this? I just swagged in front of them. All right, so I have to go upstairs next, but I want to talk to this guy first. Do as you're told, grunt. Wow, I feel like I'm part of a criminal organization already. So I learned about the CarPlay thing where it plays a sound when you connect. So now when I start my truck and connect my phone, it plays a horn from the Disney ship. So just trying to relive your, your glory days on the on the, uh, on the Disney cruise. What? As a grunt, you only have authority enough to steal from children and old people. Try anyone else and they'll just blow you off. That is so funny. Cruise on Disney Wish last year. Oh dude, I bet. I'm glad you got to go. What was your favorite part of the cruise? Now then, your fruit, is it? Sweet. A NCL Aqua. Ooh, what's that? Tell me about that. Yeah, exactly, Just a Channel. This is Stormtrooper vibes. Here it is, pal. Don't go putting it to waste now. Well, aren't they unlimited uses? Oh. Let me in, I want to hack your computer. Can I run? Oh, I can run! Let's go! Oh my goodness, this is awesome. Wait a second, there's a Poké Ball. It's a Poké Ball item. Wow, they won't let me get it. Hey, how's it going, Sarah? Welcome. Aqua is the newest ship sailing for Norwegian Cruise Line. Oh, Prima, okay. The namesake of the class, but Aqua was the first. That's awesome. So Prima Plus. Chris, welcome. We are playing a ROM hack of Pokémon FireRed. Wait, okay, so I guess I don't go that way. Oh, I have to go upstairs. Oh, this is my rival. That stuff was bad, man. I went to the NCL Breakaway last year. Oh cool, we got some like fans of cruises. So, uh, my family— was it last year? Yeah, my family, Donnie's family, and my parents went on a cruise last year. It was really fun, so I get what the hype's about. You know, struggling to kind of go outside, be a professional crook all of a sudden, but you never even nicked a candy bar from a Poké Mart before, am I right? Haha, don't worry about it, man. I'll teach you all you need to know. Yeah, or you can be my rival. What do you mean, Matt's a snitch? Gosh dang it, Matt. Name's Ronnie, by the way. Wait, why is his name in title case, not in all caps? I named him— I'm naming— I'm itching to steal some Pokémon. So should I have not named myself in all caps? Do I have to redo this just to change my name? I think I started on Type 3 because it's red like Team Rocket. Also notice you have no Pokédex. Tempest. Twitch Clips now evidently crop. Well, that— well, yeah, you can actually do a vertical and a horizontal one, which is pretty cool. All right. Oh, heck yeah! This place is too darn crowded. Meet me outside. This is awesome, it's the Game Corner. Don't make us look suspicious. What? Give me a coin case. I need a coin case. What? How do I get a coin case? This guy offered me free coins. What? Why are you looking at me funny? What? Yo, I want, I want a kankoi. I want a coin case. It's so cool. I remember how you fully convinced there was still a Margaritaville because Margaritaville sounds fun. I can't open this. Okay. Immorality is my passion, man. This is the perfect music for that. Pokémon Robbery for Dummies, Chapter 1. The first step to any successful Pokémon heist is to pick a suitable target. I was thinking there were only grunts. We can only steal from kids and old people for for the time being, which sucks. But hey, I'm sure we'll be rising up the ranks in no time flat, so don't worry about it. Anyway, point being, we've got to find ourselves an old fart or a little brat. Give me a shout if you see any. Oh yeah, there's a kid. An innocent-looking schoolgirl at 6 o'clock. This is our big chance. Get your chosen target homebound. Proceed to the beat them. My goodness, King Coin is my new Cryptohollow in Sinus Salem. Oh, Grunt. No, no, this is Rocket Grunt.

What?

Who, me? Not caught in this scene. Are you far too easy? Besides, you're the newbie here, aren't you? Yeah, I'll be right behind you, buddy. Wow, he doesn't have enough courage to do it. What? Oh, Pokémon battle. Okay, I can do that. I only have these Pokémon that my monkey got for my birthday, but okay, battling seems fun. Let's do it. Yo, are we gonna steal from her? Oh, we need that Pidgey. Wait a second, I don't have any Poké Balls. I guess I just have to defeat, defeat the schoolgirl, and then they're both Flying types. Okay, that was fun, huh? What, dude? How's it going, Dan? Thank you, I appreciate that. Good to see you. Do you have a GameShark or Action Replay? Yes, for GBA. There was a code that let you steal opponent's Pokémon. Yes, yes dude, we did. We actually both had a GameShark and an Action Replay, but we didn't have like internet capabilities really to like download. We did, but it was all dial-up, so we didn't like— we didn't know how to download more codes. So we had the GameShark, had nothing, we didn't even support the Pokémon game. But then we got the Action Replay and we did figure out how to download the codes for Pokemon game over. You could like hold a button to like level them up. It was like you get any Pokemon in the wild you wanted. It was crazy. Hey Superstar, so basically, um, we beat a little girl and stole her Pokemon, you know, forced her to hand over one of their Pokemon as far as rank. What? Gangster isn't the coolest thing in the world. Go ahead, Sergei, I'll hold her down. This is brutal. Which Pokémon do I steal, Pidgey or Spearow? I feel like I should steal Pidgey. This, this is an evil ROM hack. Which one should I steal, guys? I'm leaning towards Pidgey, but I'm, I'm open to the Spearow as well. Fearow probably has pretty good stats. Pidgey, yeah. Pidgeot probably has better stats. This is the most lighthearted thing in the game, by the way. Really? That's true, Trash Baby, that's true. Would you like to give a nickname to the stolen Pidgey? Okay, what nickname do we give the female Pidgey? I need something edgy. Edgy. I'll accept any edgy suggestions. For the record, Tempest was a great suggestion by Superstar. Speedball's not quite what I'm looking for. I'm looking for something edgy. Something edgy. And if the chat doesn't think of one— murder. I'll leave you with that. You murder people in this game. It's pretty, it's pretty hype. Furo pretty much only has better deck. Okay. Oh, it is? I didn't know that. I didn't know that. Well, nothing— not like an overt, like, drug reference. I want something that's like, you know, edgy but passable for like a name. I believe it. No spoilers, Superstar. No, no spoilers. Fendt. Hey, Charles, how's it going? Razorbill, Piggly Wiggly, that's pretty edgy. Fendt, is that a name? So I'm hoping when I get fully moved into my new place, I'll have a new desk. Dude, that'd be awesome. What kind of desk are you looking to get? Hey Tom, welcome to the stream. Not bad, Charles. Just playing this ROM hack and enjoying it. My son is asleep for now. I have a monitor, so I'm watching him, making sure that he's okay. Um, my son is doing great. He's adorable and he's laughing and he's wonderful. Hey Donnie, how's it going? Welcome to the stream. Um, okay, fent— Fentanyl Flyer. Dang, I reread Superstar's message, I realized it was Murkrow. Murder would be a great name. Yes, that's a good point. Name it Blumpy. The thing is, Donnie, that's not a very edgy name for a Pidgey, and we're looking for edgy names. So unfortunately, Blumpy doesn't pass the edgy test, but I am open to other suggestions if you have them. Pidge, I mean, that's kind of like more of a cute nickname. I don't know. Blumple Stiltskin. All right, I'm just gonna pick something. You guys are hopeless at— you guys came up with Tempest You guys came up with Sergey, great edgy names, um, but unfortunately that's apparently where it stops. Bloodshot, that might be— no, that'll work. Let's do Bloodshot. All right, Trash Baby came in just in time. Hey, how's it going, kids? Crimson. Crimson Flames, understood. Pudgy. Unfortunately, it's not quite as edgy as I want. I think Bloodshot is what we'll go with. I also realized that I hid the, the multi-chat on TikTok. If I turn it on though, it's gonna— does this— I'm curious for the TikTok viewers, my genius wasted. Pidge-lord. So Donnie, if I turn on the, the Twitch and YouTube chat on TikTok, makes it hard to read? That's what I thought. Okay, I'll leave it off then. TikTok is so limited with what you can do basically because, because of the screen, how the screen works. Okay, all right, wait, yeah, Bloodshot does fit. Okay, Bloodshot. Bloodshot. Well, that's terrible. The chat is overlapped. Yeah, that's what I thought. Thank you for the feedback, Crimson, I appreciate it. Does TikTok force upright phone resolution? No, you can do, you can do horizontal, but you have to hold the— it, you— it's just, it's not a good experience. You basically, you need to conform to vertical if you want a decent experience on TikTok, in my opinion, but they do support wide as well. Oh my gosh, ain't no thing, man. Mount Moon. To the noobs back at HQ, feel free to join me or whatever. Catch you later, man. Dude, the edgy friendships of this game. Okay, we're gonna do our first save and then we're gonna teach Fly. All right, Scott, have a good one, dude. It's really good to chat with you. Hey, it'd be cool to have you in the chat whenever you want. Have a good night, my friend. Okay, so what did I come into? So this is a mod hack— a mod hack— a ROM hack of Pokémon FireRed where you play as Team Rocket, and you start off as a grunt in the ranks and you climb the ranks. So Agatha, that would be a good name. That would be a good name. All right, let's do Bag, TM Case. Hey Charles, thanks for being on YouTube. That's pretty awesome that you switch between the two. And so did Christy, let's go! And actually, Christy, notice that you are a moderator in the YouTube chat, so I was trying to be proactive with that. I don't know if you've been a mod for a long time or if you've— if I've recently given it to you. I don't actually quite remember. All right, save again just because saving's fun. Okay, the end goal, Charles, is to climb the ranks of Team Rocket and basically take over the whole, the whole region with Team Rocket because you're the bad guys in this one. Okay, Giovanni. It is poggies indeed. Listen here, grunt. Yo. Well, it's time for your first mission, grunts. You've been informed by a well-trusted source at the Pewter City Museum that some particularly rare Pokémon fossils have been spotted inside here, the cave. We believe that these fossils, once acquired, will be of great help to Team Rocket. Why? Well, that's none of your concern, really. Now, we have hired a particular super nerd to help find and identify these fossils. His name is J.S. Grant— oh, sorry, He is currently making his way through the cave along with some other new recruits that weren't as slow in getting there as you lot. Your mission today is to assist in your search in any way that you can, scavenging every nook and cranny of this hole, fending off any trainer may have gotten a big idea about collecting some fossils of their own, and reporting any and all sightings to me. Do I make myself clear? Of course I do. Now get moving, kids. Wait, I need to heal my Pokémon first. We'll find out, Charles. I don't know, I'm assuming there will be— there will be an encounter with Red. Didn't you do a YouTube stream a while ago? Maybe, Christy, maybe I did. Maybe as a test or something. I don't think I did like a formal one. Are you seeing all the chats individually or together? Um, I'm seeing a combined view of multi-chat for YouTube and Twitch, but I'm seeing TikTok separately, unfortunately. I don't know why, but for some reason they don't combine the chats with what I have set up. A Magikarp for just 500? No, scam artist over here. Something ought to be done to stop criminals like you. Wow, I think the Rockets are actually pretty cool. Can I join? That's awesome. Elevated Premiere. Yeah, that had a chat component, you're right, Annie. Yeah, so I guess to the degree where I've had premieres, maybe. Okay, so you're just choosing to ignore my brilliant suggestions. Get it, get a spoink and name it Chief. A spoink? Forget about it. Yeah, well then maybe that counts. It was elevated premiere. Okay. Hey Zach, thank you so much for the raid. Thank you so much, I appreciate that. Hey Roman, welcome to the stream. See if they like prevent me from Oh, let's go! I feel like this sprite, this, this tile pattern always has an item on it. If it was FireRed ROM, then Spoink wouldn't be in it, and the pig is a cop chief. Edgy. All right, I can see it. What happens if I fight this person? You people had better learn some manners. That nerd. Where do you think you're going, grunt? Come back here and do as you're told. This is really immersive. I like it, even though the writing's, you know, a little— what I would really— there's probably things they could— they simply couldn't do if they were trying to make it like something that, like, you know, Game Freak would make. But at the same time, I kind of wish they, like, made it something more realistic. I don't know, I don't know if the ROM hack allows national dex or not. Right, right, I think it does. I think, I think it does have national dex. It works with national dex. Bullet Seed rocks and Zubat. All right, level 6. All right, nice. I actually don't know how— what the difficulty is of this game. Caterpie. Well, we gotta train our Pidgey somehow. Whoa, unfortunate. Hmm, the level of my strategizing is not going to be nearly the level that you've seen from my brother's streams, just so you know. Hey Kenzie, welcome! You made it! Thank you for being here. I'm sorry I got started a little bit later than I thought. It took a little bit to get Duncan down, so it's good to see you. Hope you're having a good day. Steal the Weedle and name it Venom Sting XX. Yo, that's a great username! I mean, Venom Sting is a great name. You know, I— yeah, of course he does, Charles. Of course he does. Have you seen his stream? Wait, are you one of them? Oh yes, with delight! Oh, do I get Weedle or Caterpie? Hmm, I'm kind of into the Beedrill, so I'll probably get Wheedle. I feel like Beedrill is more of a menacing companion. I'm just glad I was able to make it. Cool, well, thank you for doing that, Kenzie. I appreciate it. Hey Andrew, welcome, welcome. Hey Elton, how are you? It's really good to see you. Butterfree doesn't seem edgy. True. It's all right, so we gotta go with Weedle. We gotta go, we have no choice. I like this unique, uh, this unique music. So we've had fully female Pokémon teams so far, so I need an edgy female name for a Beedrill. Thanks, Elton, it's good to see you. How's your evening going? I like Beedrill over Butterfree. Yep, same here, me too. Beedrill's just really cool. Hey Tori, hey Sam, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome. All right, I'm taking suggestions. Donnie, if you have a banger nickname to provide, I'm here for it. I mean, to be honest, because it's as a stinger, Venom Stings, kind of like Venom Stings, kind of where it is. I don't know if the XX will work, but we'll try it. I know she had like the non-caps X in it. Where's my select? Okay, that's my select. Murder Hornet. Hey Sam, that's actually not a bad suggestion. Doing okay? A bit of a slump? Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Well, I'm glad you're feeling better. Buzzkill, good suggestion. XX Venom Sting. Queen Bee sounds nice too. Murder Hornet goes hard. Queen Bee, hmm, well, I guess I'd have to commit at that point to evolving it to Beedrill. I need something that's more flexible. Tyrant Queen. Let's try XX. Is there an underscore? There actually isn't an underscore, there's just a dash. There's ellipses. That's so weird, I didn't know you could do that. Yes, it's super unique, Elton. I'm enjoying it so far. Um, that's so weird that you can do that. I stab her. That's just hilarious to me. I'm gonna go with Ice Stabber. I like Ice Stabber. Venom Sting is too long with the axes. Yeah, it is. I put an ellipsis after every one of my Pokémon's names. Wait, when you said I'd put, do you mean like you're recommending that I do it, or are you saying in past tense you did that? The fear I feel seeing Boomers use the lifties in the emails. Yeah, I think that's why I was like averse to including it, was, was the association. Darn it, I never should have come here. I feel so bad. You sure you want to battle me? Hey Alan, welcome, welcome. Okay, wow, what the heck, level 9. Can I even encounter wild mons yet? I haven't encountered any wild mons. I missed, let's go!

Sure.

Okay, okay, not bad. I got coworkers who put ellipses at the end of each one of their messages. I 100% believe that, Elton. You would do it? Are you actually serious, Kenzie? What? Can I ask why? That's really funny. Okay, Tempest is about to be really strong. Focus Energy. Wow, guess what? I'm stealing your— oh, what? I can't— oh, because she's not a child or an old man. My grandpa uses them in texts. That's so funny. Hey, at least your grandpa can text. If only I could afford some repels. You say that, but I haven't run into one wild mon yet. You can steal only from children or old people. Yeah, while you're a grunt, that's the idea. Oh, you know, I'll probably, I'll probably stream on X, Elton. Um, I was just— I didn't know what my internet could handle, and so far I haven't dropped any frames with streaming to 3 platforms, so I might add X next. The only way to make Clefairy edgy is to give a name like Mantrap, Venus Stare, or Heartbreaker. That's a really good point, although the extra cute Pokémon could have— could be extra, you know, extra scary. Okay, so at this point I should probably switch to my Weedle. Now of course we're playing baby mode, so I'm not gonna actually like lose any of these mons permanently. Charge! I love ellipses. He will call it out. What, what's so comforting to you about ellipses, Kenzie? What, what makes you— what What makes you use the ellipses? Yeah, Donnie, tell me more about Tony Hawk. How are you enjoying it? Get poisoned! Oh, let's go! We might lose, but at least we'll Hey, Logank, welcome, welcome. I'm definitely not switching to my Pidgey, although what if Voltorb only knows Tackle? Risk might not be that big of a deal. What level's the Pidgey again? Oh, 3. Yeah, forget it, we're not risking that. All this Eh, I'll stay. I gotta die. Oh, I survived! Heck yeah, we'll take it. Okay, I don't get to steal again. Okay, that's good. I'm gonna save. What's the third platform? Uh, TikTok. I'm streaming on TikTok. You get me? I use it when I'm not confident in the thing I'm saying, so I don't want to use a full stop, but a soft— it's sort of a way to like ease, ease the message, I guess you could say. 3 was an absolute delight. I have 100% of it going through all the campaign levels. What? The campaign of 4 is a little more obtuse because it was converted from open world. Right, right, I heard about that, which I know is controver— controversial. So wait, oh my gosh, I finally ran into a wild Mon! Okay, that's nice, I can actually run away pretty easily. That was so weird. I didn't run into a single wild Mon that whole time. Oh, you have 100% of it? I have 100%. Oh, you have it. Okay, like, did I read that wrong? All right, let's do a quick heal. All right, thank you. Abuse Mewtwo for your sick and twisted aims. All right, Grant, thanks. Hey Traumi, how's it going? Welcome to the stream. Thanks for hanging out, Grant, I appreciate it. This is a typo. Got it, no problem, Donnie. I just, you know, I've misread you so many times, it's possibility. Yeah, Crimson's a great username. Okay, okay, now we're all healed up, so let's, let's do a little switcheroo. Let's try to like you know, boost our weakest guy here. I mean, should I say gal? Rare Candy. Actually, yeah, I think I just need some Poké Balls. Your next acquired Pokémon is male, you have to name it Gammy Game. Why? I was thinking about iStabber, but the username is also really cool. Oh, if it's female, I'll tell you I'm sorry. Poor Shadani. Uh, I don't gamble, so If only you knew what a wimp I was on the inside. Donnie's sending a hand, try to make things interesting, add stakes, and I'm like, nah, how dare you. Oh, look at that, Zubat's name is not all capitalized. So I think they do like actual title case. That's not very edgy. It's true. Well, Donnie, I'm— that's why I'm playing this game, to know what— to know what it would be like to be edgy. I'm not actually edgy myself. You know they've taken the actual NPCs from the original game and they just changed their dialogue and stuff. Heck yeah! Oh, that means it won't knock it out, probably. Zub Zub the Zubat. Is that like JJ the Jet Plane? Wow, everyone missed. Hey Brody, welcome. It's funny, not being able to have TikTok chat on the YouTube and Twitch chat, and then not having the YouTube and Twitch on TikTok is so weird. It feels like I'm bifurcating. The chat. Sand Attack, let's go! Oh my goodness, the double level up, nearly triple. No, let's keep this roll going. He used to go by That Fly Who Wings. Oh, That's actually a deep cut, Donnie. I know I hate that I can't see the other chats. I can see— the thing is, the thing is I can turn it on, Kenzie, but watch what happens when I turn it on. Like, it just makes it hard to read everything. I guess I could put it somewhere else. I could probably make my camera smaller and like maybe put it next to my camera. Actually, let me try that. Maybe I'll put my camera over here, and then instead of doing the wide chat, I'll do the tall chat. Is that readable at all? So everyone that's not on the TikTok stream is gonna have no idea what I'm talking about, but maybe that's better. We don't need all this space for my head. And he says, hi TikTok, even though we can't see each other. So now YouTube and Twitch can't see see the TikTok chat. It is better, Donnie. Okay, cool. Can other chat see our chats? No. You're a genius of your own. Hey Fernando, welcome! You like it, Kenzie? Okay, I'll keep it then. Thank you for the suggestion. You know what, I kind of like the idea of getting this Bellsprout in Miss Purgatory. Oh, never mind, I did a one-hit KO. At one point I want to like Sand Attack someone to death, you know what I'm saying? Where like their accuracy is so low. Oh my goodness, this Pidgey's killing it. You know what I just realized? You know how it says like your Pokémon gets a boosted— like a boosted experience if you get them from a trade? It doesn't say that when you steal them, which pretty funny. I'm a TikTok noob, so I don't know if there's a way to disable bad UI, but I sent you a screenshot. Thank you, Donnie. Oh yeah, no, I think it's probably fine. I think that's probably fine. Yeah, thanks for the screenshot. Hey, Top Spin, welcome. Thanks for the Poké Dollars. One of those bullies who kick sand out of people's faces. Yep. Wow, that was mean. Actually, I'm gonna do something really fast. Um, how do I change the controls? Settings, gameplay, no keyboard. Okay, here we go. The L and R will be—

okay, okay.

I just changed the controls, so hopefully I'll get used to this. First fire type has to be Trogdor. Trogdor is a planet, he'd be Furminator. Trogdor was a racist, he'd be the Slurninator. If Trogdor rejected people a lot, he'd be the Spurninator. Can you catch Pokémon or just steal them? You can catch the— I don't think— I don't know if you can catch them. I don't know about that. I know you can catch wild mons. I don't know about catching trainers' mons or not. Like one of those— yeah, I'm not sure, Annie. I'm not sure because I don't have any Poké Balls yet. Thank you for liking the stream. Stream Donnie, guys, I'm gonna Sand Attack this Nidoran for no reason. Hey BT, welcome! The Perninator, the Sojournerator. Wow, these are good ones, Donnie. This poor Nidoran does not deserve this treatment. This is so fun to do. I want to have a level 100 Pidgeot that knows Sand Attack. That's my goal for this run. Thanks for the follow, I appreciate it, Crimson. Okay, now the accuracy is pathetically low. You're in a nader. That was fun to say. Okay, I'm gonna keep doing this and see if I can poison this Nidoran, which is gonna do more damage than the actual damage. Oh, it hit! No, my plan was foiled. Gosh dang it, Donnie. What's the chance of Poison Sting poisoning? Hey, Rewill, welcome! How are you? No, it's been a little bit. Please poison. You know what's interesting? When you steal a Pokémon, they're at full health even though you knock them out. Okay, I'm giving up after this next one. Hey Cole, welcome! Poison is a low percent, like 10. Okay, that's— that makes sense. What, what, Donnie? I know that. Oh, so Poison-type can't be poisoned. Forgot about that. I forgot about that. Awkward. I'm just using silly moves for fun. I'm just trying to like reorient myself with this and remember how this all works. What? How dare you? Donnie calling me out. 30% chance of poison. Oh, okay, Charles. What does Focus Energy do? Having Charles in your stream during Pokémon is goated. He's a research fiend. I remember that from your streams. And this Nidoran's poisoning everyone. Raywill, how have you been? It's been a little bit since we've chatted. Hey WittyMittyOG, welcome, welcome. Focus energy raises chance for critical. Ah, okay, good to know. Yeah. Oh wait. If it's Flying, isn't this a bad idea? I shouldn't have picked Weedle because of weakness. Okay, I think Zubat's also Poison. It has been? Wow, that's been good. That's awesome. I'm hurt by the poison in the air, I guess. Hey Elton, have been reading any books? Yes, I'm reading a book called The Transparent Society. It was written in 1998 by David— what's his last name? It's like a single syllable last name. Oh yes, I learned gust. Let's go! It's really good. It was very prophetic for like where information and technology and a lot of things were going. It's been really good. Oh, it's been a while. Yeah, sorry, Rio. Well, I hope you've been well then. Let's go, we go evolving! Yes, 1998, that is when the book was written. It's been very— it's very, very good, very good read. How about you, Elton? What are you reading? Can you Anything good? I don't know what generation the stats are based on here, but the crits are 116 to 124. Amazing. Oh, okay, huh, that probably doesn't seem— that doesn't seem very worth it then. I don't know, maybe it is. Let's go, Ice Dapper. Oh, okay, sure. I kind of wanted a Nidoking. Should I load my save? I want a Nidoking. I'm gonna load. I know I'm lame. I just wanted the Nidoking. I fat-thumbed the A button. Oh well, you can get up to 100%. What? Oh, the stat increases to 1/8, like Razor Fang. Razor Fang, I assume that was what that is. That's awesome. I know you could like— it's stacked. That's awesome. Hey Essie, I can't believe I have to watch ads on my husband's stream. Oh no, Esther. Oh no. Trying to get better at reading my Bible consistently. That's awesome, Elton. That's great news. Yeah, I've been doing, um, I've been doing daily Bible reading, um, since January of last year, and I just finished Luke, and I'm into starting John, and I read the whole Old Testament last year and then a bit this year. That's awesome, Elton, that you're reading it. How's Bebe? Bebe's good. Bebe's good. He's just been moving around a little bit, but he's overall great. Yes. How's Elsa's? You have to pay the household bills somehow. Unfortunately, I've been through a lot. Oh really? I'm sorry to hear that. Sorry to hear that. Sweet boy. Esther! Annie, thank you so much for gifting to Esther. I really appreciate that. Thank you, thank you, it's very sweet. Esther, come to TikTok, there's no ads, says Kenzie. Let's try to get 100% crits for Kingdra and then use Draco Meteor. Whoa! That's actually sick. Annie, thank you for gifting the SE. I really appreciate that. I'm gonna switch to my Weedle and then switch back to my Pidgey just to get the EXP. Annie the goat indeed. So what is the experience like overall having some people on YouTube, some people on Twitch, some people on TikTok? What's it like? I've watched a lot of videos on Old Testament lately. Oh really? I haven't read it. There's so many good stories in it. Yeah, I recommend, um, there are some parts that are breezier than others, I will definitely say that. Um, but overall, super good. Definitely recommend. It's like, okay, all right, we're gonna switch to our Rattata then. What, uh, videos have you watched about which stories in the Old Testament, Elton? Anyways, ever since you created Spelunky— that's so true, we love her for doing that, for creating Spelunky. You want an audio-video Bible? Pastor Deuce read the entire thing and has them uploaded on YouTube. That's awesome. Yeah, I saw that he was doing that. That's such a good idea. I feel like a second-class citizen. That's not to do with TikTok, just my inner despair. I'm a millennial. Gosh dang it, Donnie. Thank you for the real feedback. Anyone else? Let's go. Oh no, confusion! Not confusion! Oh wow, that's a lot. Hey, Splatamantium, welcome! Wow, that was a short stint with confusion.

Confusion.

There we are. Okay, this time I won't mash A. Still got the evolution. I like the multi-stream thing. It's kind of fun having the multiple chats and probably convenience. Some platforms probably work better for some. Yeah, exactly. It feels like I'm— especially with YouTube and a little bit with TikTok, it feels like I'm exposing myself to like a whole new group of people. It's really awesome. All right, I want— although having a Golbat would be cool, I do want the Nidoking. All right, I need your guys' edgy names. Edgy names. Get your best name for a Nidoking. The guy's been doing summary videos of Ocarina of Time books, not Old Testament books. Yeah, please. Um, actually, yeah, please link it. I don't know what will happen if you post a link in, uh, see, Alfred's not very edgy. Raywell, I need something edgy. Multistream is good as long as there is a complete chat. On the stream. Yeah, unfortunately I don't have TikTok, so— definitely better for mobile users and desktop. On desktop, both YouTube and Twitch are great. Yes, I feel like I can protect a whole subset of people from my cringe on saying— gosh dang it, Donnie, big Kakuna. I can't change the nickname of, uh, iStabber to that. Corrosion Lord. Corrosion Lord. All right, we're in the right direction for sure. We're in the right direction. Hey, how's it going, Caleb? Welcome to the stream. I also like that with TikTok it announces who joins so you can say hi to them. The only problem is by the time that it shows up on chat, they're already gone. Depressed Charlie. The Chosen. Okay, that's actually sick. That's actually sick, Kenzie. That's actually sick. We're gonna go with The Chosen. It fits just perfectly too. The chosen. This, this just became the most important Pokémon in my party. Aunt Clara is not gonna cut it, Rewill, because this is a male Nidoking. Yeah, that's, that's a W for Kenzie right there. Okay, save immediately so we can lock in this amazing nickname. It sort of bothered me that all my Pokémon in my name are like all caps. All right, so I don't really want this Pidgey to faint, so I'm gonna do that. I'm gonna waddle my way back to— wait, what? No one in my party knows Dig. Nidoran gives chosen energy. Like to take a walk? Yes. It signals, it signals.

Um, okay, that's not what I wanted.

Geodude. I don't even have— I'm trying to not be poisoned, although, you know what, I'm almost dead again. Wait, did I go— did I go down the ladder? This Pidgey might just have to faint, actually.

Oops.

Okay, you can't fly in caves. That's what I thought. Well, all right, we'll give it one more shot. We'll waste the other potion. We'll try to save the Pidgey if we can. But 20 HP is so little. Wait, that's down. Nope, wrong way. Bloodshot fainted. Sadge, my directional abilities did not assist me in that. Thank you, Christy, I appreciate that. Thanks for liking the stream. Okay. I think YouTube on your chat program did not like that I posted a link. Oh, sorry. Yeah, I think I might have a rule that says that you can't post links or something. It's like an anti-spam thing because there's so much, so much junk that randos publish. So you kind of have to do it. Thank you for the FYI. All right, Bug Catcher Robbie, we're definitely stealing one of these mons. We're already getting to the one-shots, boys. Tell Esther that Calvin sleeps in a blanket I think she made for him every night on me. Oh really, that's awesome. I'll definitely let her know. All right, we gotta evolve this Nidoran. Hey, Cruzmir, welcome. Tell her now or else Gutz gets it. I mean, what do I have to lose if Gutz gets it, Donnie? Gutz has had it coming as far as I'm concerned. Is heart the only thing CPU cocooners use? Goots knows all your secrets and he's a talker. Oh no, all my secrets! Goots, please show mercy. A quacker, if you will. Please, Goots, I'm sorry. Level 8. Oh, I did a lot. Oh yeah. All right, who am I stealing? Yeah, Metapod, Kakuna, or Paras. Obviously Paras. Hey Alex, welcome, welcome. All right, edgy names for a male Paras. I'm pro— let's be real, I'm not evolving it, so it's gonna stay a Paras probably, unless I want to complete my— there's— wait, there's no Pokédex in this game. You just, you don't care about that sort of thing when you're Team Rocket. You just care about stealing and robbery and bad guy stuff. So I'll take suggestions for a nickname for Paris. If not, I'm gonna name him something that's really gonna embarrass Christy. That's all I'm gonna say. So those are the stakes. We're dealing with here. Okay, this is gonna really embarrass Christie. This is really gonna embarrass Christie, but here goes nothing. Worst mod. Terra as in terrarium. Yeah, see, Donnie, you get how embarrassing this is. Worst mod. Wow, so edgy. So embarrassing for Christie at the same time. Okay, you could run in caves in the original ones, right? Wasn't it so funny? I'm lost, mister. Do you think you can help me out? No, but I'll steal your Pokémon. Sweat guts. Wow, I mean, you're not wrong, Donnie. Oh, I might be able to steal a Jigglypuff. That's the edgiest Pokémon I know. Hey Kayla, welcome! Somehow I knew Puff was gonna use Sing there. Whoa, bloodshot's asleep. All right. Wake up, Bloodshot, please! Hey Snoopy Drew, welcome! Wow, Bloodshot loves sleeping. Let's go, man! Boosting that defense, man. Okay, I think I'll get the Clefairy if I get a choice. Should I get the Jigglypuff or the Clefairy, guys? What do you think? I'm especially looking for Annie's opinion here. I did nothing. Yeah, I love when they use Encore on moves I was already going to use that are already super effective. Oh, let's go! I'll let you think, Andy. No problem. Okay, you ready to steal? Yeah, let's go! Puff or Clefairy? I'm sort of torn on which one. I think Clefairy evolves with the Moonstone, and then Puff also evolves, or is it just through levels? I might just be through levels. Okay, Charles votes Clefairy. I feel like I go Clefairy. Yeah. No, sure, let's go Clefairy. 2 votes for Clefairy. Now more importantly, what should the name of the Clefairy be? Named Mr. Steal Your Girl. Unfortunately, Kenzie, unfortunately Kenzie, this is a female Clefairy. Unfortunately. Hey Trammy, sorry, I just saw your message, uh, you got outvoted just barely. How's it going? Good to see you. Thanks for being here. The Donald Eraser. They both evolve with Moonstones. Ah, good to know. Clefa male, but this is a female. Mr. Steel, your boy. But, but Kenzie, it's a female Clefairy. Cletomaniac. Oh, kleptomaniac. Hmm, Kirby. Iron Cleft. Hmm, not like this. Do they have colons? You know, Donnie, I mean, I would, but there just aren't any. Why is there a— why are there period and commas on both of these? I think my first video from you I've seen is the Captain America Project Moppy video. Wait, really? Did you see that on Twitter or did you see it on YouTube? I don't know if I uploaded it to YouTube. That's not an ASMR suggestion. I'm sorry, Donnie. I think part of it is just the weirdness of you being on TikTok, like you said. I think that's just really throwing me off, you know. Oh, you weren't on Twitter yet? Okay, it was, it was on YouTube. Oh, okay, I don't remember putting it on YouTube, but gosh dang it, Matt, he is here. I'm not making him up, he's in the TikTok chat that you can't see. Luna. Done. Luna is edgy because it's a Harry Potter character name. I don't have enough space for Lovegood. I think that's the character's name, isn't it? When Beta speaks for radio, I was like, oh hey, it's David. Really? Oh, that's hilarious. Just for posterity, Charles says, I miss Donnie. Oh my goodness. That pulled on my heartstrings a little. So here's a question: if I steal a Pokémon with a full party, does it just go to my box? Or— Thief! How appropriate for a Rocket Grunt. Heck yeah! I love when you just press A and not item appears. Wait, save what for posterity? David will never know. I should literally never type anything following a message I actually want seen. Donnie is like, we're weird ghosts and only David can see us. It's true. You're not talking about your sweat guts— your sweat guts suggestion, right, Donnie? No? Am I missing it? So I see you said the Donald Eraser right after you said they both evolve with Moonstones. The Donald Eraser. Not like this. That's not a name suggestion. Ah, just for posterity. I think I'm missing— if you said something else, I don't see it on the TikTok chat that I'm looking at. Hey, how's it going, Goog? Uh, possibly. What would you want to stream together? The name suggestions? I don't think so. No, I actually don't think I see them. That's so weird. It's literally erasing it. That's weird. Oh, the character I used— she used some funky character. No, Luna from, uh, I was thinking of Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter. That's from— that's a character in Harry Potter, right? Now I'm obsessively pressing A on every suspicious-looking sprite or tile. I came this way already. See? Okay, Kenzie knows what I'm talking about. Use the vertical line character. Oh really? Huh, huh, I wonder why. It would block it for using that. I was gonna— my iPad autocorrects everything. Unless you can't see the message still. No, I don't think so. Which message are you talking about, Donnie? Here, I'll send a screenshot of what I can see. Donnie, this is what I can see on my side. Oh, 7 experience points, we're rolling in. Hey there, bruh. This here is my ladder, find your own. Wow. You're one of them rockets. Of course I like Nintendo. What Nintendo games do you like? I'm playing one right— actually, I'm sort of playing one right now, sort of not. That's right, that's not It's not the opposite of super effective, it's ineffective. I can't see the name suggestion either. Oh, okay, so it doesn't just block it for me then. That's odd. I can't remember typing for Rock and Normal. Okay, it isn't effective. Immobilized by love. My brother literally forces me to pay money to get him He's still not acknowledging them. Donnie, thank you so much for the 80-month resub. I really appreciate it. Thank you so much. See, my lines— that evolves with Moonstone as well. Yeah, that's a good point, the Luna connection with the Moonstone. That's actually brilliant. Um, thank you so much. I'm still getting used to the new, uh, alerts, Donnie, so I apologize that I missed it. Thank you so much for that 80-month resub. So you have Puffnames: Death Siren, Night Trap, Nightmare, Freak Dream, and Sleep Terror. Those are great suggestions. Oh my gosh, those are incredible. I'm sorry that I missed them. I'm sorry that TikTok blocked them. Yes, I can, I can see the sub message, but I can only see it because I'm happening— I'm happening to look up at the event feed. I need some kind of audio cue to get it. Yeah, that is super strange that it was censored.

I don't know why.

Hey, Little Bishop, welcome! Cute, you woke up already. Okay, so I have nothing that's strong against rock is what I'm gathering. It's a death word. Yeah, maybe that's what it is. It's an unli word. I can't do Mario because my controller broke. I'm sorry to hear that, it's unfortunate. Wow, it's not even worth doing the move because it just— I might as well use Sand Attack. I don't have Sand Attack. Heck yeah, we love that. Yeah, that is unfortunate. What kind of controller broke that you had, Goog? I was going nuts. I felt like you were Josh for a moment, or I was Josh and you were Christy. My goodness, that's savage. Well, this is why we test, uh, TikTok, and thank you for being active in the chat, because now I know if you use certain words, they will be hidden, which is crazy. All right, we're not gonna use Worst Mod, so I'm not even gonna bother leveling up Worst Mod, probably. It's gonna deposit worse mod. The Christie slander, my goodness. Hey Justin, welcome! How are you? How's it going? Nice.

Um.

Welcome back to the Chinese platform, Donnie, the banned from US platform. Well, that did nothing. I know nothing about Pokémon stats. It's embarrassing. I'll switch back to my Pidgey. I can see that, Donnie. I can see that. I can see that message that you sent. Yes, no comment, in case it jeopardizes my, uh, my position on the stream. Free speech is alive and well, baby. But you know what isn't, Donnie? Sarcasm. You can't use sarcasm, just so you know. That's banned because Twitch is owned by Korea, North Korea, so you know. Wait, did I go down here? Yeah, I did. Do they turn— like, I feel like they may have turned down the encounter rate because it doesn't feel as bad as— hey Colton, how's it going? No, my days of playing COD are over. I played through Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, the Call of Duty 4, and Call of Duty 5, and I was like, all right, I've played enough. I think I played Modern Warfare 2 a little bit. Oh, is my son waking up? No, he just stirred. Okay. Tell Matt that won't be tolerated. Shrugging your shoulders and rolling your eyes is banned too. Hey Matt, that's— can't do that. Just Donnie wants you to know. Cole, if you play COD, you are disqualified from the nonprofit. Oh, it's Cole! How's it going, dude? I didn't realize it was you. How's it going, dude? Uh, look at me and tell me this isn't the rarest looking fossil you've ever seen. It's a Moonstone. You've all censored a little. Whoa, you're alive, dude! How's it going? You have a few kids, right? I've joined, um being a parent as well. That's been pretty awesome. They don't want the Moonstone? I'll take it. Now I have a Clefable if I want. You have two? Awesome. Matt just tanked my business to put his own in place. Wait, what? A mat just tanked my business? What happened, Cole? Wow, awesome. I'll take the Moonstone, dude, and save for good measure. Also, just so you know, Cole, this is probably the most adult Pokémon ever because I'm playing as the bad guys. Which makes me edgy. So therefore, um, actually it's quite mature and adult. I'm sure it's a long story. I'm sorry to hear that, dude. That really sucks. And a friend's got some strong butt trainer that came in here just now. Pretty darn exciting. Come on, I'm telling you, he beat me straight out without breaking a sweat. It's like I barely got the chance that you'd make a move before before he was all over my face demanding I give him prize money. That spiky-haired kid is ruthless, man. Rich child prodigy who ran away from Pokémon school or something. Disgusting. Is it your rival? I bet it's your rival. Oh yeah, this is a ROM hack. This is a ROM hack of a Pokémon FireRed. That fans have made. Ken's Matt looks innocent, but he's nefarious. I'm sure it's not that Matt. I'm sure it's somebody else. What's news to you, Annie? I feel like I missed what you— what you mentioned. Tuk and Pound Sand with their stupid streak nonsense. Uh, you guys are telling me you got your butts handed to you by some kid? Your mom's? I'm not buying this, Sergey. Whoa, suit yourself, pal. Hold on, I can't find any fossils around here anyway. Yeah, has Matt killed us in different games across the years? When I played COD, I always made sure to talk about how bad— and it was more than 6 million, 7 to 8 million. I'm really glad that you did that. Oh dude, that reminds me, Cole, that thing you did on LinkedIn was so funny where you did like the, hey, here's sort of a provocative revealing photo, but it's just a few little edits in Photoshop, it could be like appropriate for business. Oh, that was so funny, I loved it. When you were joking about the free speech stuff and like sarcasm is banned. Oh yeah, that was an actual thing that happened. I think in North Korea they tried to ban sarcasm because it was using at the expense of the leadership. Yeah, no, it was super funny, dude. I loved it. Come on, Spike, your little turpy kid. Ancient old Pokémon bones. I'm not leaving this cave until I find something that makes Petrel see me for the dedicated master criminal that I am. Okay, see, is this the way out? No, I, I keep getting stuck here. All right, sweet. And then I can grab the center. Cole threatened to pants me if I didn't say anesthetics are bad. Well, that's kind of threatening, I don't know. Now I want to see what happens if I steal a mon. Will it go to my PC, or will it say my party's full, you can't steal? Hey Andy, welcome! Ted Cruz is the best, say it. No, like, they are, but I don't want to say so because I have to. I'm not saying it. I'm not saying it. Cool. You can't make me. In fact, he ate someone's child, I think, so I would never say that about someone that did that. Is this where the fossil is? Yeah, that's where the fossil is. I've already been here. Gosh dang it, Cole. You're technically correct, but it's not literally correct. That doesn't make any sense. I have a hotkey for fast forward that I might start using. In some of the, like, Pokémon Emerald hacks I saw, you— they, like, speed up the animations, which makes it a lot more tolerable. I really like that idea. Why can I never remember which place to go down? No, not this one. I think it's this one. I don't think I've been down this one yet. I'm doing this for free. Imagine the good I can do when I get my grant money. That one's for Israel. Gosh dang it, Cole. Some little kid trainer, not too scared to move in case something's Zubat swoops and attacks me. I hate my job. You're changing hearts and minds. By the way, Donnie, I'm doing research into some ROM hacks. There are some so many cool ones. There's one that recreates Pokémon Silver or Pokémon Crystal in Gen 3, and so it's based off of Pokémon Emerald. So it's basically Gen 2, Gen 3, and it's so sick. And it's almost— there's a fork of it on GitHub that's almost complete from the whole Kanto region, or the whole Johto region and the whole Kanto region. It's so sick. All right, later Cole, thanks for stopping in and saying hi, man. Sleep good. Thanks for saying hi. Do do do do do do do. Why does Grant owe me money? What? He doesn't. Huh, another Moonstone. Just pressing A on suspicious rocks is worth it. Hey Kayla, welcome. Actually Mm, actually, wait. Fast forward is Shift+Tab. I wonder if I can change that. I want to do fast forward. I want fast forward to be Backspace.

I'm saving as if I have to save that. That's insane. I have not evolved Clefairy yet, Donnie. Moveset, okay, understood. That sounds right. I appreciate the heads up. I found the super nerd guy, and guess what? He found some mother flipping Pokémon fossils. Easy now, I've only been able to find these two fossils here and they're hardly anything to brag about. Pray the whole fossil frenzy isn't quite blown out of proportion if you ask me. Yeah, yeah, whatever you say. The, the writing is really funny on this. Do you happen to see a little kid trying to come through here? Some spiky hair. Feeling about walking around with his Wartortle outside this Poké— yeah, this is definitely Blue, like some big show-off. He didn't care about the fossils. That Wartortle, for crying out loud. The wussies from upstairs. All right, sounds good, Donnie. BRB. No, my brother Donnie's my brother. Goog. I can't collect them. Hey DJ, welcome! Don't look at me, I didn't sign up for any battling. You think my dad would know how to use Twitch? Goog, that's hilarious. Yo, yo, Pokémon Trainer Red would like to battle. Oh my goodness. Okay, what? Okay, I'm gonna get destroyed. I'm going to get destroyed. This is not even fair. Am I supposed to lose? Yeah, Annie, I think, I think I'm toast. This custom track is awesome. I guess I could have grinded more. All he's doing is a single scratch and each one of my mons is fainting. This is so funny. Get poisoned. Am I actually supposed to beat Red? Worst mod, my only hope. Yeah, I think you're supposed to beat you. Thought the poison would get him. I know. Okay, I'll share. No being greedy. Whoa, that kid, that was insane. He beat me in half a heartbeat. He didn't say a word, just knocked me straight out. What the heck is going on here? That would have beaten him. True, Don, you're so right, Charles. With you and with it— with you at the— if you helping and him at the helm, he could have easily beaten Red. I wonder if it's possible to beat Red. Hang on, don't tell me— no, it can't be. What did you guys do? For 2 seconds you mess the whole thing up for me, don't you? Well, listen, we both tried to fend him off, but he was just way too strong. Kind of shrugged it off and ran away with both fossils. No, he didn't. No, not both fossils, just one of them, right? Or yes, that's correct. Wait, really? I thought he kept one. The kid, I suppose you got a good look at him. Be really funny if someone grinded a level 25 into this vision. Yeah, yeah, I know. I was wondering if they'd handle that. I wonder if they calculate like X percent stronger, or like what if some crazy person grinded for the level 100? I wonder what would happen. Like you just had a task doing it and you just like left your computer on and for like a week or whatever, however long it would take. He's lying. Ah, what clothes he was wearing? Notice any distinguishing characteristics? Yes, sir. He on the ground, you know, just ran off. The pink-haired grunt here fought him too, though. Oh, maybe he's already better. What's your name, grunt? Sergey. That's right, I remember now. Good, at least one of you darn grunts proved to be of some help. Being the crab on a terrace, got him running away. Else fell doomed for the Team Rocket's image. Imagine boss will want a word with you back at HQ. Nothing can be done here. All dismissed. Report back to HQ as soon as possible. Felt a lot of good, that did you. I'll hear no more of it, Grunt. Do as you're told now. Oh cool, they just take you there. That's Nice. So you don't get any of the fossils in this version. Red takes both of them, but I think in the actual game you're only allowed to take one, if I recall correctly. Eric was something else, man. Best behavior. Can I go in here yet? Oh, maybe if I just ignore him, he'll go away on his own. Do you still have to do the Team Rocket HQ puzzles? Uh, probably not, I assume. Like how often you're saving, I should learn from that, dude. Andy, that's such a huge compliment. You have no idea. I'm very proud of how much I save. It saved— it saved me, no pun intended, many times. So, okay, so go down the elevator. Who made this? Uh, some cool nerds, I'm not sure. It's, um, there's a website for it. I think it's called rocketedition.com. Yeah. Um, oh, you know what's funny? I actually can't post the link in the chat. That's funny. Um, multi-chat is, uh, read-only. So Matt, I'll ping you with the link if you're interested. There's the link if you want to learn more about it. I don't say that often, but when I do save, I can't just save once, I have to save a minimum of 3 times. Oh man, I totally understand, I understand. Blake, welcome, welcome. This is so cool. Consider yourself lucky. You're stupid now. I'll be kicked out of Team Rocket before you can say Rattata. Sergei, I presume? Yeah, just come up here by my desk. Now then, let's not waste any time. I heard from Petro that the fossil excavation mission at Mt. Moon was wrecked by the workings of two little kid trainers. Now, between the fact that Petro is the weakest of my sorry bunch of Rocket admins and the mission team consisted of complete and utter rookie grunts, it still boggles my mind to the core how in the deepest depths of guillotine-as-hell a pair of preteen twats could beat up an entire squad of full-grown men and run away with the spoils right in front of their gosh dang eyes. Oh, it's hilarious. I mean, for crying out loud, Ariana, look little kids. How freaking absurd is this? It's very absurd, Giovanni. Who's Ariana? I don't know if that's true. From your battle with him, I want to have the Swirp thoroughly profiled so we can see to it they'll never dare mess with Team Rocket again. I see. Red, eh? What a ridiculous name. Trying to run the other run, running with Wartortle. Why? An officially licensed Pokémon, no less. Who else could these parents be? This red character especially. Let's keep our eyes— he comes away again. Do you hear me? A dangerous breed. Gym Leader Blaine is here to speak with you. What? Little chicken mouth all the same. Can't keep making any Porygon for you. What is this lore? What is this lore that Blaine is making Porygon for Giovanni? You're a filthy coward, Blaine. Fuji knows all he has to know too. There's one tower and he's gone crazy fit over it. Old colleagues elaborated, and I quote, Team Rocket is up to no good. They've got spies all over and they're ruthless. Source code for the Porygon is copyrighted by Silph Co. I'm caught making them in the lab, it's all over for me. I'm not going to visit my gym leader. I'll have to lay low for a while. You know, that's a major source of revenue. Porygon is for our game corner. Players just won't want to gamble as much if they don't have the prospect of winning the dang Dang. Wow. So, so Blaine is the one that's generating Porygon for the Game Corner. The Poké Mart. It's only a handful of scientists in Kanto who'd be willing to even make the things that'll help us distribute them illegally. Maybe— look, it's been over a decade, I can't help you see if maybe Professor Oak would be willing to No, nothing to do with this finalist. Didn't win a professor.

All right, forget it.

Talk to Bill about it. He's an undrivable kid, but he's smart. I'll bet you anything.

Why?

I don't suppose we have much of a choice. Bill has done a couple of small tech jobs for me in the past, but he's a thick kid. I don't like him. The rascal. Letting you off the hook for now, Blaine, for old time's sake. If you hinder Team Rocket's operations again, well, you're not going to get a favorable outcome. Is that clear? Making Porygon rest once the whole foodie business blows over. So I want you to now listen carefully. Bill's house, yeah, from the jump. Team Rocket is temporary manufacturer for Porygon. He says no, tell him we'll make him an offer he can't refuse. Tell him we'll give him any price or service he likes within reason. Just kidnap Giovanni for your team. Yes, Annie, yes! That's a, that's a deep cut. The manga Blaine was a former Team Rocket member who created Mewtwo. Wait, really? He has no connection to Team Rocket in any of the games or the TV show. I think the redhead and the purple head are from the Let's Go games. Oh, you might be right, Charles. I thought I heard something. Yo, that's awesome! I didn't know that, Charles. Is that clear? Well, on with you then. Count on you, Sergey. Do I look like Bill to you? That dork take the offer. Okay. See, it's on B2. And even playing more Pocket. What's the puzzle? Why are they even here? Xiaolai cheat.

Ah, it's the life grant.

Oh, what? Oh, cool. Too bad I have no money. Oh, I guess I got some items. Star piece. Oh my gosh, I'm glad I got one of those. Well, now I can buy something. This feels so underground. I'm gonna buy a Super Repel. Trying to get to Ultra Ball 2. Nice! Also, you're in Ultra Ball 1 then, Annie? That's awesome. What, uh, what deck are you running? Yeah, get out of here, don't you? Get stinking rich, do whatever the heck I want. Umbreon Darkrai. Oh really? Okay, just like to do it. The Team Rocket admins, the color hair are from Gold and Silver. Oh cool. How do I get a coin case? I think I should get one. It's Team Rocket, right? Hey, what's up, Nick? You're not getting any audio? That's bizarre. That Rocket member with the green hair is your rival. Oh yeah, you do have a rival in Gold and Silver. I don't remember much about them. I just remember that I thought they had— I thought that he had red hair. Just a you issue. Oh, weird. Sorry, Nick, I don't know why that is, but hello. Hello, Nick. Hey, it's all good now. Some stupid old fossils when I got that real robbery to care of. You got a mission? Right on. Breaking the little guy's house, I guess. He hit up— how cool is that? I was so close to Master Ball. Really? 8-game losing streaks. Dang, I understand. I understand the motivation, Killie. Your headphones are not on. That would explain it, Nick. That would explain it. How's it going, dude? How have you been? So Wonder how I get a Coin Case. I should just join Team Rocket after all. I'm scared. Take my football, please don't hurt me. We just traumatized some little girl. Oh my goodness, I can buy Poké Balls and stuff here. Yeah, we'll see where it takes us. I really love that, like, they use like manga lore for this. That's so sick. Okay, TMs.

Oh hey, Dig.

That's actually one that I want. It's so expensive though. That's okay, I'll need it for— I'm in a situation where I need to escape. Oh, I have to buy a Great Ball. Oh man, that's almost all my money. Here, I'll do 2. Man, okay, I'll just— and I'll get 1 antidote. No, yeah, only 100. I'll do 5. Just put the balls in the bag, bro. What are you running, if you don't mind me asking? Uh, yeah, no problem. I'm doing an Eevee deck right now. I was playing on stream the other day. It's a really cool deck. It runs Sylveon, Flareon, and Leafeon, and it works really well, and I use just fire energy. What's that green-haired guy's name? I don't remember. Hey Sonic, how's it going? Welcome, welcome. Unless you stole the Pokémon, of course, then it'll be your name. Counter. It's counter a good move. You don't have anyone to trade with, huh? Wow, I love it, like when they choose to modify the text and how they choose to do it. It's so sick. Yo, thank you for the 29-month resub, Von Fluffykins! How you been? I really appreciate that. Welcome, welcome. A little bit— I caught a little bit but haven't quite caught your deck. Oh, got it. Yeah, no, it was— it's a really good deck. I learned it from some guy on— I found on YouTube. Cool, you can buy the stones here. Trying to remember how the department store is. Yeah, the, the stat boost stuff. This is cracked. That deck usually gets me. Yeah, it's good. Have you considered Gammy Gam's Gambit? Have I considered the Gammy Gam's Gambit? Hello, Insanusalem, I don't know what you're talking about. Can you please clarify?

Lightscreen.

Is it worth getting the TMs from her? You usually lose to it. Got it. You know my wager from earlier, right? Well, I'm not— I'm not the gambling— of the gambling sort, so unfortunately I have to decline. Wow, I'm 2 Poké Dollars short of, uh— wait, no, I'm not. I'm just gonna do it and see what I get, and it's not worth it. I'm probably gonna load because screw this. TM20, Safeguard. TM33, Reflect. I mean, I guess they're cool TMs to have, so all safe. Peter denied Jesus 3 times before becoming Pope. So thanks, Pokémon, is male, you make gammy gams. If it's female, I apologize. But like, is you apologizing really something that I want? I feel like you, you know, you set the terms and didn't consult me and what I would get, and I feel like you apologizing is not that tempting of an offer. It's pretty valuable. Um, I don't agree. I don't think that valuable. I'm sorry. Okay, are you ready for the line? The best line in the game. Actually, wait, I don't know. Cut. No cut yet. Hail Giovanni! Exterminate the Johtanian scum! Only kidding, was that too dark? Oh shoot, you're one of them, aren't you? Never mind, I'm just eating. What are you looking at, chump? What was that? I'll give you a coin. Uh, give out my coin case to some filthy Rocket, that's for sure. Wow. So this guy normally is the one that gives you the coin case, but he won't give it to you, so you can't play the— can't play the drone slots.

Okay.

This is a hotel for people. This is the one self-aware NPC the entire game where it's like, are you seriously— you're assuming that like this is for Pokémon? Some things are for humans too. Like how everything is so Pokémon obsessed in the Pokémon world, at least in Kanto and other regions too. Plan on using Clefable. Using it as a setup Pokemon isn't a bad idea. Ooh, tell me more, Donnie, tell me more. Just because you hand out apologies like taffy doesn't mean I do. Wow. Hold Light Clay, Light Screen, Reflect, Wish, Moonblast. Okay, all right, I'm gonna get strategic, Donnie. Thought for sure there's an item there. Wait, does that mean I haven't been in here either? Yeah. That's my strategy. Oh my goodness. And Moonblast gives you Fairy coverage. Okay, yeah, I think this, um, this ROM hack does have support Fairy type and like some of the newer types. Oh wait, that's not my line. Still totally true though. Wow, I'm down to keep the Hufflepuff then. Oh, you know what? I realized Fluffykins subbed and left a message. Whoa, is that the dad? The David B. Campbell? And I missed that message. So I gotta take a note of that. Better alerts for resubs. So I see, I don't hear them or see the message or really unless I look, look on the on-stream chat. And I'm having to send 3 messages that should have just been 1. Oh, the TikTok limit. You lead this instead of screen, then switch to your hand. Hard Hitters. Hmm, Moonblast gives you Fairy coverage. Interesting. Yeah, it is kind of annoying that they have that limit. I've noticed that too. People have already had to be like part 1, part 2 for their messages. I think it's so funny they make you go up all these stairs. An Eevee! Yo, what should I name this Eevee? It's got to be edgy. Not sure this is something you would want to be aware of, but we hear them on Twitch, so it's not coming through. Oh, that is good to know. Yeah, I see it's a separate source and I've turned monitoring off. That's probably why. I'll try turning monitor on. Let's see, maybe if I hear them now, we'll see. Thank you, Eve. But this is a male. This is a male. Phase, like it's not a phase. Actually, I like phase because also phase can reflect the different possible evolutions that Eevee has, so it really would fit any evolution. I like it. FaZe. Thank you, Don. It's a great edgy name. Yeah, it might have to be an Umbreon. Christmas Eevee. Gosh dang it, Matt. Yeah, this is really good. I like FaZe. Fox One. Cool. Pokemon game on a computer. That's really funny. How can you play on a computer? It knows. Yeah, that isn't very edgy. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Matt. Adam then? No, no, I'm going with Donnie's suggestion. Faze. Faze is good. It's so cool to play as a Team Rocket guy. Straighten your shoulders and rolling your eyes is not acceptable in this chat. Joke so bad Donald had to switch chats.

Wow, brutal.

Only good boys and girls, no tea for thugs. Wow, big empty room. Cool. Is this where the developers are? Magnus, hello! I'm the sound guy for this hack. I made some new tracks based on these from the original game. See if you can find them. You play the sound off, don't you? Sandra, hey there! I made you. I bet you're wondering what's going to happen to you, huh? Well, I'm not telling. Have fun and thanks for stopping by. Oh, this is so cool. You asked who made this, Matt. These guys did. Drawing pixel art is interesting most times, but it can become a pain in the butt when you can't just make your picture look the way you want to. What's up, my name is Broly, I'm a spriter. If the Rocket higher-ups look as good as they do now, it's thanks to me. Speaking of which, not stealing Pokémon from trainers can still be a fun experience. I recommend it. Oh, that's interesting. Not stealing them. You know what, that's, uh, that's probably the morality system. If you don't steal, I bet it has to do with like the morality system that I saw mentioned. The absolute panic I feel when Calvin starts grunting in concentration while asleep on me. Oh Donnie, I understand. Hey Dustin, how's it going? Is this Kanto Rocket Edition? This is Kanto. I didn't know there was a Johto one. Is, is the Johto— is there a Johto one available that's also, uh Like a Gen 3 era hack? Like, is it still based on FireRed or is it based on HeartGold and SoulSilver? Actually, I want to get rid of worst mod and get my Eevee. Hey Dustin, thanks for the like, I appreciate it. The Johto one is fairly recent. Oh, I think there are more more gens in it. Okay, like more Pokémon gens? That sounds awesome. Do you know the name of it? Is it called like Rocket Edition Johto or something like that? I'd love to check it out. Yeah, I do. I have access to Bill's PC without, without meeting Bill. You should check out my Water Blue 1 and 2 Silver Rival hacks. I'm totally down to check them out. It's made by Dragon's Den. Okay, Dustin, that sounds awesome. Water Blue 1 and 2 Silver Rival hacks. Tell me more about them. Actually, I'm gonna Google the one you just mentioned. The Dragon's Den Johto. Oh, Pokémon Team Rocket Edition Dragon's Den version. I did actually see this. Yeah, I think this one— the reason why I avoided this one is because, um I avoided this one because it has too many of the newer gens in it, and I don't want a ton of the new mons. I wanted to try to keep it, um, what's it called, like more vanilla, right? Right. I'm taking the Wobbuffet Silver Rival. Just awesome. Congratulations! Please do. Congrats on completing those. Wish I was a Gligar. They seem so silly and carefree. Gosh dang it, Donnie. Gligars are so derpy though. Take it back? No. They look derpy. Wait, this is an old man. This means I can steal from him. All right, we're right now— yeah, it's derpy. It's literally derpy. Okay, or Mr. Goose joins the chain. Holy cow, Donnie, that's so brutal. Water Blue 1, you play as Blue in FireRed story. Oh cool, Silver Rivals. Oh, that's so cool. That's— and I love that idea. How does it play differently than, um, like since you're the rival character, how does it play differently? You're silly but not derpy. All right, so you and Matt are already in conflict about what they are. This— are they silly? Are they derpy? Like, I'm just gonna get conflicting messages from you guys now. Oh, liquid crystal base. Blue and Leaf go to Johto to find Red. That's cool. So can I ask you why you use liquid crystal as a base instead of like, um, crystal dust? I know Crystal Dust isn't quite finished, but there's a branch that's really close to being done. And what I like about, uh, Crystal Dust is, uh, it's a lot more faithful to gold— or to crystal. Oh my gosh, I wasn't aware of Crystal Dust. Oh, got it. Hey Evan, welcome! Well, it's cool to have an actual Pokémon ROM hacker in the chat. Um, did you just stumble upon my livestream just by browsing, or how do you— how do you find it? I'm very curious. This is my first time— well, not my first time streaming to TikTok, but My first time multi-streaming. Oh no, I didn't think I'd faint. Well, Donnie, um, not starting off strong with the befriending. They are sleek and powerful and ready for combat in King of the Jungle. Hello, Insanus. Just scrolling, nice. Well, thank you for stopping by. Donnie's like the chosen to me. Eevee, I'm so sorry. All right, what should I steal, gamers? Poliwag or Bellsprout? I'm inclined to get a Poliwrath. I could use a solid water mon. It might— although Victreebel is pretty sick too. Yeah, I'm leaning towards the Poliwag too. Plus I could learn Surf. Poliwrath and name it Kyle? Gosh dang it, Donnie. Poliwrath— Poliwag it is. All right, what am I naming the Poliwag? He punches holes in drywall. But Kyle's not very edgy. And drinks Monster Energy. Hmm, if you could argue that Kyle is an edgy name, Wrath alone, yeah, Wrath. It's like a, it's like a fun short version of it, and it doesn't necessarily have to be evolved for it to work. Wrath's pretty good. I like Wrath. Hey Alex, welcome, welcome! Depending on your starter in WB1, your rewards will differ. Okay, Silver is a whole criminal just like the game. Oh cool, I did my best to keep both as canon as I could. Oh, you did put Mew under the truck? That's so sick, I love that. How long did it take you to get into ROM hacking and how do you learn how to do it? I'm so curious because I, I did a little bit of Brawl modding, um, like Smash Bros. Brawl modding before, but I don't care if you swear, even though my mom checks my phone. That's a really good name. Rathalone. Let's see, unless someone else has it. No, no. Hey, I, I don't care who gets a turn. I, I need the best names for the mons, solely decided by me. So if you pick a banger and you pick another banger, doing it. YouTube and Discord, okay, fair enough. Oh. My son is awake. Unfortunate. All right, I'll be right back, guys. Oh, I'm still here. I'll, uh, okay, I have to go. Alright, I think I have to end stream. My son's not having a good time, so Thank you for hanging out, uh, it was a pleasure. And Dustin, thanks for hanging out. Um, yeah, he's not having a good time, so I'm gonna try to get back to sleep. Thanks for sticking around. Hey, buckaroo Brogan. I will, Donnie. I'll tell him hi. Yeah, Annie, thanks for hanging out. I really appreciate it. See you, Charles. Yeah, it is, Nick, but it's alright. Matt, have a good night. Thanks for making this multi-stream so much fun, everyone. Alright, good night.
