can we go back now
All terrain venomoth was a beast
Battery Jesus, Lord Helix, King Fonz, Bird Jesus, All Terrain Venemoth (Dragons included as terrain type), Air Jordan
There is an amazing breakdown of it on youtube somewhere.
Fascinating to watch the lore being created in real time.
Oak: This isn’t the time to use that!
Why did Omastar get to keep its name?
This was a wild time
It’s been 10 years? Stop making me feel old. 👴
Praise Helix
Probably the most fascinating thing ever pulled off by the internet. I don’t think anyone really thought it was possible going into it.
Just reading names made me nostalgic. I had forgotten about All Terrain Venomoth.

Nidokings name is perfect
I love how AATTVVV exposed an exploit in Gen 1 AI to win it all. That All Terrain Venomoth was a real king.
man was a journey it was, not sure which moment was the most iconic
actually using the masterball on Zapdos and the ensuing bloody sunday, the team rocket infinite maze, ATV beating Lance’s ace dragonair
Someone kind enough to fill me in?
‘s why I’m on reddit
God nothing captured my attention more in my last semester of college. I was watching it in class all the time
To this day it suprises me they could catch zapdos and get omastar.
That was so wild and fun
This was fun. The day a bunch of the pokemon were accidentally released was such chaos. Everytime we’d go to use the computer there was a sense of tension. Good times.
AAAAAAAAAA
We stopped our orgy to finish watching the stream. We had like at least 10 naked adults cheering.
My dad has the moon landing as the thing he can look back to like “I was there, I remember watching that, everyone thought it was impossible but I saw it happen, it was amazing.”
I have that with twitch plays pokemon
That shit was SO fun to watch. I can’t believe that was already 10 years ago… god damn my concept of time is getting warped into mid-30s.
That’s the reason why my account turned 10 around a week ago.
This run happened during one of the most shit times of my entire life. Thanks for posting, gave me a nice reminder of how good things have been since then.
I love how it’s all like AAAAAAA and aaaabaaalg
and then just
*Omastar*
Didn’t they have to change the parameters because a bunch of trolls wanted to ruin it?
They’ve tried many times to replicate it in the ten years since, but nothing can compare to the original playthrough. The utter chaos. Having to spend days in a single dungeon due to troll inputs. Releasing the starter and other great Pokemon. Democracy vs chaos mode. And of course the unparalleled lore.
Take me back 🥺
I will never forget sitting in my comp sci 101 class at 6 pm and participating in this to pass the time. Was a great moment in gaming history where we proved the wisdom of the crowd succeeds!
The switching between anarchy and democracy mode just made it that much better.
The fuck you mean “10 years ago”?
Damn, I was a college freshman when this was going on.
I’m just shocked it was only 16 days. It felt so much longer than that.
One of the best things to happen on Twitch!
Man, I remember tuning in during my lunch breaks when I was in high school. Good times…
