Sayne7: PM me and i'll tell you how to see ALL the Helen pics without link sharing!!
Matthewth0: So one problem with our composition so far is that none of our pokemon are good (and most are weak to) electric and getting something like Lugia or Suicine wouldn't help that.
Mayhelixbewithyou: Espeon + Psychic = Beastly.
Z33k33: as far as espeon goes, he might be fine if we just delete his 3 useless moves
Patashu: OPERATION Ice Punch: 1) Fly to Goldenrod 2) Go to mart 3) Buy TM33, Ice Punch 4) Teach to Feraligatr
Ibegyourhate: We didnt beat clair but it was a close match
Z33k33: stop talking about smoochum, he's getting replaced
Empressofsnow: Aw, we lost to Clair? That's okay! We can try again!
Smokemonster84: we would have won if not for the damn hyper potion
Z33k33: plus FLY is nice because it protects the user for a turn with invincibility
Yoshiperhapsman: Wow I expected Dragonair to be bigger
Arghaeopteryx: Gator too stronk? KINGDRA TINK OTHERWIZE!!!!
Blueberrykup: this old woman is so kind for letting us stay
Empressofsnow: She enjoys our company.
Bountyhunter628: beating clair? easy. leaving her gym? hard as f***
Sfxsigma: i want to get off gym leader clair's wild ride
Dr_clipper: It's too hard to make room for Dratini. Let's ignore him for now and Master Ball Suicune
Aikidunot: Guys, let's make room for Dratini now and deposit someone! We need Dr.Hoot for flash so keep him. We also need to teach whirlpool We'll have to navigate the ledge once more anyway
Muthserra: HAH no way, we don't need a sodding metapod on our team I mean seriously
Muthserra: No shitt smooch needs to go, the only ones who want to keep him are those who have prolly zero knowledge of pokemon and want him for the novelty
Z33k33: Our ESPEON has 3 moves that don't do any damage which hurts us a lot, if we aren't choosing BITE, burrito is cooked...
Bigfatmantis: Shadow Ball is a physical attack in this gen
Assassin234: Psybeam got dissed hours ago, hopefully we dont do that to Psychic
Dr_clipper: Yes, we will use PC at some point. See if we catch Suicune first!
Fiction789: Who the *** cares about that *** ledge. Most of TPP's viewership happened LONG after that ledge was beaten
Blaazin14: TlCK TOCK KlLL THE CROC
Zanzaanzaru: there is no god in this game
No Extremespeed though.
Faithfulforce: THIS IS ATTEMPT 15 OR SOMETHING
Amsay56: you are effing kidding me. now lazorgator's poisoned. he could have taken the entire elite four out, but now, we screwed around and missed our chance
Faithfulforce: YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY FOR ICE PUNCH
Orio94: get money for ice punch from mom
Elitelordsigma: I don't understand why Onix is in the party in the first place.
Z33k33: Yes, we're trying to Evolve our Onix to learn Earthquake and Iron Tail.
Tl_419: jesus christ, there's absolutely no way you people can use items
Dudeosity: destroy the jynx gus
Karmillina: KICK THE FALSE NICKI MINAJ
Kassarin: raticate is crap, sacrifice him
Australian_helioptile: Why the *** do you losers always keep going back to New Bark Town?

I only became aware of this yesterday. Awesome stuff. I have not laughed so hard since I can't remember when.
I tried watching the stream a bit too, but my internet connection was having its period and the video wouldn't load.
Is there some document on the net with a detailed history of the original run? Not that I underestimate the efforts to bring everyone up to date in this thread, mind you.
EDIT:
Never mind, found it.

Too bad they won't be able to continue this throughout the series. DS's touchscreen is too much for this interface. But they should be able to at least finish gen. 3, theoretically.
We got through the 2nd Gen FAST.
Compare that to the first game where we needed 16 days. Though, do we also play through Kanto afterwards?
Edit: And I'm tuning in on the first defeat of Bruno.
I'm kind of surprised Nintendo hasn't shut this down. They've obviously heard of it by now, and they've been quick to come down on LPers recently, and the guy running the stream even admits to using an emulator and Nintendo fucking hates those, and yet they haven't done anything to get the stream taken down (unless they sent a letter or something to twitch and were told to fuck off).
I wouldn't be quick to assume they just want to avoid pissing people off, either, because modern Nintendo thinks of its fanbase about as highly as the Codex thinks of biodrones or oblivion fanboys.
I don't know how well Twitch bothers to protect it's users, but if the streamer owns a copy of the game and dumped the bios from his gameboy himself, he should be fine on from a legal standpoint.I'm kind of surprised Nintendo hasn't shut this down.

Can I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic Game?
There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic. Therefore, whether you have an authentic game or not, or whether you have possession of a Nintendo ROM for a limited amount of time, i.e. 24 hours, it is illegal to download and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet.
Is it legal to download a copy of a game I own?
No. Even if you own the original game, you are not entitled to download a copy of it. Copyright law clearly states that the only copy of software you are entitled to is the one you make yourself.
It would be pretty dumb for Nintendon't (yeah) to do this now. They could wait a couple of weeks until no one cares anymore. Well, "care".. Hmm.. yup..
