Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video)	comment	Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (TPP) is a series of social experiments that started in February 2014 in which commands representing buttons on the requisite Nintendo console are entered into a chat on Twitch, and then translated into a game of PokÃ©mon via an IRC bot. In short, a horde of people fighting over a controller (at its peak, over 100,000). Throughout its life, Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon has spawned hilarious characters, memorable moments, and even a few joke religions.The very first and most well-known run began on February 12th, 2014, featuring the game PokÃ©mon Red. It quickly and unexpectedly exploded in popularity, achieving an average viewership of 88,000 viewers and grabbing the attention of both numerous media outlets and the Twitch staff themselves. The game was completed after 16 days of continuous gameplay, and other PokÃ©mon games thus followed; while the stream never reached anywhere close to its initial popularity, it is still running to this very day.There are currently over seventy completed main runsnote "Dual" runs featuring two games at once are considered to count as a single run, while "Gauntlet" events composed of multiple games in a row have each run counted independently, as well as numerous intermissions, the most prominent being betting matches set up using PokÃ©mon Stadium 2 then later PokÃ©mon Battle Revolution, and sidegames which are played alongside said betting matches at the pace of one input between each match.Main runs are played mainly in Anarchy mode, meaning every input is read one after the other continuously, but sometimes allow for the activation of Democracy mode, in which users instead vote for the next input or string of input at regular intervals. In those instances, the specific commands "anarchy" and "democracy" allow users to decide on whether to stay on the current mode or switch to the other.Additional modes include Commander mode, which automatically determines the next input towards a desired action ("move", "item", "switch", "run"), Military mode, an earlier and less functional version of Commander mode that performed the entire action at once, Congress modenote often referred to simply as a subset of Democracy mode, which is used for sidegames and in which users vote for a single input every few minutes, and Turbo Anarchy, a much-derided mechanic that randomly picked from the last few inputs without break.Of note is that the title of "Streamer" is usually employed to refer to the person in charge of the stream as a whole, but does not necessarily equate to the person actually hosting it. The runs were first hosted by the original Streamer ("TwitchPlaysPokemon" or "OG Streamer") until DekuNukem hosted them from the first Nintendo 3DS run to the third, after which the stream was hosted by s_SoNick, and finally by m4_used_rollout starting in mid-2017. The original Streamer stepped down altogether in late 2017, leaving the title of Streamer to Aissurtievos for the last run of Season 4, then to Chaos_Lord after said run ended, to ax6 between Season 7 and 8, and finally to m4_used_rollout in mid-2021.TPP won the award for "Best Fan Creation" in the first-ever The Game Awards in 2014, and a Guinness World Record for the most participants on a single-player online video game. It has also spawned many, many snowclones, leading to the creation of a "Twitch Plays" category on Twitch, one of the most notable being Fish Plays Pokemon, in which a fish plays PokÃ©mon Red.The official stream can be found here. The stream's official subreddit can be visited here. There also is an official Twitter account, available here. For archived progress of the runs, go here.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_1237828f	comment	Anyone Can Die: Any PokÃ©mon, no matter how useful or beloved, can be permanently released, whether by accident or as a result of malicious intent. This can be avoided through the use of Mail or Ball Capsules, but even those do not fully guarantee the long-term safety of their holder. There can, however, be exceptions, with some runs preventing key PokÃ©mon from being released when they tie into a certain gimmick.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_18150c85	comment	Democracy Is Flawed: While Democracy allows players to perform more precise actions, it is not always a perfect solution. It has the downside of being much slower paced, is susceptible to being abused by large groups of people, and might even be less effective than Anarchy in situations where speed is preferable to precision. This includes situations that require continuous button-pressing (going up cycling roads, Burgh's honey walls in Black/White), constant and/or fast movement (boss battles in Legends: Arceus, Skyla's Gym in Black 2/White 2), or button-spamming (Tulip's ESP in Scarlet/Violet, Tera Raids).

While this resulted in an Obvious Rule Patch preventing Noisemakers of a same species from being used consecutively, all Meloetta badge distributions from that point onwards were accompanied by five notifications per user receiving said badge rather than one, with the cry being played for each notification, as a nod to that event.

The latter include hacks such as Hypno's Lullaby, PokÃ©mon Cursed, or most notably Trick or Treat House, a series of Halloween-themed hacks made specifically for the stream that involve solving puzzles and collecting candy.

Ball Capsules in Generation IV games and their remakes have a similar purpose to Mail, as they also prevent any PokÃ©mon whose PokÃ© Ball has one from being deposited or released.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_2ae29c0d	comment	The Dreaded: While not a character, the PC would definitely qualify. A single mistimed or malicious input can cause a beloved party member to be permanently erased, while too much panicking can result in the entire party getting shuffled around. As a result, many players do not trust it and will try their hardest to keep away from it, and will dread any situation in which using it becomes absolutely necessary. This is exemplified by the tppPC emote, which depicts the PC as evilly smiling while surrounded in flames. Even the mere sound of the PC is enough to fill part of the chat with fear, to the point where even activating the decorative computers of the Cinnabar Island laboratory can cause a slew of cancel inputs just out of instinct. Once again, this is has been semi-canonized by one of the sound options of the "Spooky Noisemaker" item being a PC boot-up beep.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_311500f5	comment	Breaking Old Trends: For the first few years of the stream, randomized runs followed a set pattern of going through each region in the order they debuted: first Kanto, then Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, and finally Kalos. Season 6 was the first to deviate slightly from that formula by taking a detour to Orre first, but then did still feature Alola as its second randomized run. Season 7 then was the first season not to feature any randomized run whatsoever, and Season 8 finally broke the pattern for good by instead featuring two back-to-back randomized Unova runs instead. The next season deviated even further by featuring the first two randomized runs based on original hacks rather than official releases, and then skipped Galar to feature a randomized Paldea run instead.

Said players have widely been referred to as the "Select Sect", a supposed cult devoted to the Select button; while the practice has died down over time, notably with the introduction of a "wait" input, the term "Select Sect" still achieved Ascended Meme status by being mentioned in a TriHard Emerald dialogue.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_42008602	type	Story Arc
Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_42008602	comment	Story Arc: While all lore is up to the community's interpretation to some degree, there are a few multi-run story arcs that have gotten popular enough that they are widely known and accepted by most fans, making them as close to "canon" as lore can get: The "Bill Arc" focused on the eponymous designer of the PokÃ©mon Storage System, portraying him as an overarching behind-the-scenes villain. While considered a minor villain in Red and Crystal due to those runs focusing more on the Fossil Gods lore, he became more prominent starting with Emerald, primarily thanks to the popularity of the Bill-Sanctioned Shenanigans series that debuted around that time. FireRed cemented the arc with lore portraying Bill as responsible for the randomization and the protagonist's as his daughter, and HeartGold served as a conclusion by featuring a second randomization and a final battle against the aforementioned protagonist of FireRed on Mt. Silver. The "OLDEN Arc" followed up on the portrayal of glitches as a major antagonist of the second season, beginning when the first run of the third season, Crystal Anniversary, suffered a crash that made the word "OLDEN" appear all over the screen, causing players to interpret "OLDEN" as the name of an Eldritch Abomination responsible for all of the technical issues and in-game tragedies they encountered. "OLDEN" would go on to be associated with the "Mysterious Bird" that appeared at the end of the run, and appeared once more at the end of Brown, as well as receive an entire April Fools intermission dedicated to it in the form of Crystal Anniversary 1.OLDEN. The arc would conclude in Prism, with the Mysterious Bird true identity turning out to be Phancero, a PokÃ©mon fittingly based on MissingNo., with the protagonist unexpectedly befriending "OLDEN" rather than defeating it by catching Phancero with a Master Ball. While not as popular as the previous two, the "Larry Arc" also received some level of attention, debuting with the introduction of Larry himself as the protagonist of the Bootleg Green sidegame, who due to exploiting many of the game's bugs in convoluted ways was interpreted in-lore to be a "glitchmancer". With the sidegame still going when Dual Red & Blue began, and Larry's signature green color providing a good foil to it, several pieces of lore portrayed him as responsible for the "split" between both game's events. Bronze also fit into the arc by virtue of its protagonist being herself seen as a "glitchmancer" due to owning a MissingNo. and venturing into a normally inaccessible part of the game, a connection enforced by a green character guarding said inaccessible area. The arc would come to a close when Larry turned out to be the final opponent of Fused Crystal, fought on top of Mt. Silver.

Directional inputs are placed without taking stream delay into account? The protagonist just jumped a ledge and has to go through an excruciatingly long maze all over again. Someone placed a random input without actually paying attention to what was going on on the screen? They disrupted a precise menuing sequence and caused a PokÃ©mon to be accidentally released. Players are mindlessly spamming A to get through dialogue? A plan that involved obtaining a specific PokÃ©mon just got derailed because the default option was picked instead.

Since then, Fossils have usually been seen by the community as the "sealed" forms of various corresponding deities.

The "!goals" command serves to display the current objectives for the ongoing run, such as beating the PokÃ©mon League or completing the PokÃ©dex; during Season 9 a "!goaIs" command with a capital "i" instead of an "l" was introduced, which instead displayed either absurdly difficult or downright nonsensical objectives, the most common being to "beat the Trick House" for games that don't even feature the Trick House.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_608b26d	comment	Uniqueness Decay: The Phancero badge was originally unique, with only a single one having been randomly distributed upon its capture in Prism. During the fifth season, the rule was changed from one badge being distributed per PokÃ©mon caught to five badges instead, leading to five more Phancero badges being dropped when it was made available in Burning Red. Then, during the seventh season, a new rule was added specifically for "fakemon" badges, which would now be awarded to every player that placed an input shortly before one was caught; as a result, dozens of new Phancero badges were distributed when it returned in Chatty Crystal and Randomized Chatty Crystal, and what was once a one-of-a-kind badge now exists in larger quantities than many of the Com Mons from recent generations.

Later that day, the game switched to a modified version of Crystal Anniversary in which every important name and menu option was replaced with "OLDEN", in reference to an infamous game-breaking glitch from the original run. Meanwhile, on the subreddit, an announcement was made that the stream would soon move to another website, becoming "Hitbox Plays PokÃ©mon". The subreddit banner was changed accordingly, as did its color scheme from purple to green.

Anniversary Red, however, nerfed it hard by requiring a combined 24 hours spent on such an area before Democracy was made available, after which it would become permanently active in said area. This system was buffed to only require a mere 5 minutes when said it returned in Prism, although with the ability to switch back to Anarchy restored. Finally, starting with Dual Red & Blue, the ability to vote for Democracy would only be made available by requesting it to the Streamer, which is the system most runs onwards would use.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_6e9e1e32	comment	Gotta Catch 'Em All: Starting with Prism, players have been able to collect "badges" each representing a different PokÃ©mon. Badges are distributed to random inputers whenever a PokÃ©mon is caught during a run or in the Pinball sidegame, and can also be obtained from reward crates, transmuted from other badges, or exchanged with other players. Furthermore, on top of all existing PokÃ©mon, runs such as Sirius and Vega have introduced their own set of "fakemon" badges, which can only be obtained from in-game catches, making them even harder to collect. By inputting during a main run, users receive an "emblem" of said run which they can chose to display next to their username on stream. While many players try to collect as many as possible, it is however worth noting that they are all Permanently Missable Content, and once a run is over, it is impossible to get its emblem anymore. As a result, the only way to own a complete set of emblems is to have started participating during the original Red and never missed a run since.

However, this system was eventually judged too cumbersome due to the growing number of colors being added; it was abandoned starting with X with usernames instead being the same color as in the Twitch chat, and replaced with colored emblems displayed next to said usernames after Omega Ruby and feature both the number of the run in which the user first participated and how many they have participated in since.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_7367e5f7	comment	Random Drop: Starting with Prism, any PokÃ©mon caught on stream causes a "badge" representing said PokÃ©mon to be distributed to a random person that has placed a recent input, which was later increased to five badges being randomly distributed for each PokÃ©mon caught rather than one. PokÃ©mon caught on the Pinball sidegame also cause a single to be distributed to a random viewer, regardless of whether they are active or not. Badges for non-official PokÃ©mon used to function the same way, but later averted the trope when the rule changed so that every person to have recently placed an input would receive the corresponding badge, in order to avoid said badges becoming overly scarce. Gaining a level, ranking well during PBR season, or taking part in special events may lead players to receive "crates" that they can open at any time, and contain either stream items (such as Mail for displaying messages on stream or Noisemakers to play PokÃ©mon cries) or stream badges.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_7deb3fb1	comment	Crutch Character: A recurring occurrence, although usually unintentional. During times of high player activity, the difficulty of switching PokÃ©mon order or teaching the right moves can lead to one or two single PokÃ©mon consistently winning most battles by themselves and thus hogging all of the experience, while the rest of the team eventually Can't Catch Up. The most well-known examples include aaabaaajss the Pidgeot from Red, AAAAAtttta the Feraligatr from Crystal, or M ---/â€™/â€™4 the Azumarill from Emerald. This tends to be more intentional with sidegames played in Congress mode. Because the inputting method allows for precise control at the cost of being extremely slow, it is much more time-efficient to rely on only one or two very strong PokÃ©mon while relegating the rest of the party to Utility Party Member status, as seen for instance with BEST the Typhlosion from Vietnamese Crystal, BUTT the Swampert from Lightning Sapphire, or Dad??? the Buuhan from DBZ Team Training. Sidegames played in Anarchy, by contrast, tend to have much more balanced teams by the time the game ends.

The arc would conclude in Prism, with the Mysterious Bird true identity turning out to be Phancero, a PokÃ©mon fittingly based on MissingNo., with the protagonist unexpectedly befriending "OLDEN" rather than defeating it by catching Phancero with a Master Ball.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_8f746311	comment	Cargo Cult: During the original run, the frequent tendency from the protagonist to constantly check the Helix Fossil from his bag due to the chaotic inputs resulted in the fandom regarding it as a benevolent deity to consult for guidance, while conversely pinning the Dome Fossil as a malevolent god responsible for all that went wrong during the run. Over time, all Fossils were perceived as part of a complete Pantheon, each with their own specific domains, and with more ambiguity regarding their respective moral alignment. As a direct consequence of this, it is not rare for the chat to start "praising" other inanimate objects following repeated use of them in-game, such as the Nanab Berry in Emerald, the Town Map in Red Anniversary, the elevators in XG, or the ATM Card in EarthBound. Certain players dedicated themselves to solely inputting the "Select" button, initially as a way to hinder progress, then later also as a "harmless" input to gain exp and badges. Said players have widely been referred to as the "Select Sect", a supposed cult devoted to the Select button; while the practice has died down over time, notably with the introduction of a "wait" input, the term "Select Sect" still achieved Ascended Meme status by being mentioned in a TriHard Emerald dialogue.

This is less of an issue in later runs, which usually have quieter hours, a larger tendency for people to all be working towards the same goal, and Commander Mode making menu navigation easier, but it still occurs during peaks of viewership or time-sensitive sections. Turbo Anarchy can cause this to happen, as it randomly selects any of the last few inputs at a constant, rapid pace, making it impossible for players to take their time, and even sometimes completely screwing them over by making a bad series of inputs all by itself.

A second measure was made to take time into account. 1 WAHA (Wattson Hours Adjustment) is 1.55 days/Wattson. Anniversary Crystal left this measure's usefulness questionable after 6 trainers achieved WAHAs above 0.1 while taking 6 or fewer attempts to defeat (trainers are only considered noteworthy if they take at least 7 attempts).

While one or at worst a few broad consensus can be reached regarding the events of individual runs however, figuring out an actual timeline of all runs is where things get really complicated. It doesn't help in the first place that many of the games played on stream are hacks or remakes of previously-played games, meaning that their canon plot is literally the same, but then there's also the issue of taking into account characters from previous runs reappearing, making it even trickier to establish a cohesive order of events. Many tentative timelines also feature branching continuities, but where they split and how many times can vary greatly, and it only takes a single unfitting Host cameo to make them entirely moot. And then there's also the question of which intermission runs should be integrated into the timeline and how, or even how lost savesnote saves that were deleted, usually as a result of a reboot fit into it all.

With the sidegame still going when Dual Red & Blue began, and Larry's signature green color providing a good foil to it, several pieces of lore portrayed him as responsible for the "split" between both game's events. Bronze also fit into the arc by virtue of its protagonist being herself seen as a "glitchmancer" due to owning a MissingNo. and venturing into a normally inaccessible part of the game, a connection enforced by a green character guarding said inaccessible area. The arc would come to a close when Larry turned out to be the final opponent of Fused Crystal, fought on top of Mt. Silver.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_e545e190	comment	Nerf: Democracy started out in Red as a mode that would activate through a majority vote using "democracy" inputs, and would remain active as long as it didn't get outvoted by "anarchy" inputs. In following runs, it went through many different changes, partly to attenuate complaints about the mechanic, but also to prevent players from abusing it. Crystal made it so Democracy mode would only activate at the start of each new hour, after which it could be cancelled by a majority vote for Anarchy. Emerald nerfed this mechanic further by having it lead into a tug-of-war vote between Anarchy and Democracy rather than Democracy automatically kicking in, then FireRed nerfed it again by randomizing when the vote would trigger rather than it being hourly. HeartGold marked the debut of Democracy only being available in specific areas when absolutely required, which can be seen as either a nerf or a buff from the more random FireRed system. Anniversary Red, however, nerfed it hard by requiring a combined 24 hours spent on such an area before Democracy was made available, after which it would become permanently active in said area. This system was buffed to only require a mere 5 minutes when said it returned in Prism, although with the ability to switch back to Anarchy restored. Finally, starting with Dual Red & Blue, the ability to vote for Democracy would only be made available by requesting it to the Streamer, which is the system most runs onwards would use. Crystal Anniversary and Brown reintroduced the tug-of-war vote available at any time, but changed it from simply requiring a majority vote to switch modes to requiring a 90% consensus to activate Democracy, while keeping a simple 50% requirement to switch back to Anarchy. Randomized Platinum buffed the former side slightly from 90% to 85%, but nerfed the switch back to Anarchy from requiring a 50% vote to a mere 30%.

Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon (Web Video) / int_eac3ee70	comment	April Fools' Day: Over the years, the stream has featured a wide variety of pranks and/or special events for April Fools Day: In 2016, the entire stream was flipped upside down and all text, both in-game and on the overlay, was written backwards. Later that day, the game switched to a modified version of Crystal Anniversary in which every important name and menu option was replaced with "OLDEN", in reference to an infamous game-breaking glitch from the original run. Meanwhile, on the subreddit, an announcement was made that the stream would soon move to another website, becoming "Hitbox Plays PokÃ©mon". The subreddit banner was changed accordingly, as did its color scheme from purple to green. In 2017, PBR featured a "broken jukebox", switching song every minute to the tune of a record scratch, and allowing users to bid songs for free regardless of their intended category. Crate Crates were also introduced as random rewards for players to open; unlike regular Crates, which could contain various types of stream-related items, each Crate Crate contained either another Crate Crate or... nothing at all. In 2018, the on-screen name of the stream was changed to "Twitchâ™¥Katamariâ„¢", and the entire day was spent playing the game Me & My Katamari. In 2019, the stream featured a hack of PokÃ©mon Sapphire titled Metronome Sapphire, in which all PokÃ©mon encountered were randomized, at level 100, and had a moveset solely consisting of the move Metronome. On top of that, it was played in Turbo Anarchy mode, and was prone to random events such as a DVD logo bouncing on the screen or the emulation speed suddenly increasing. In 2020, the ongoing Gauntlet Platinum run was suddenly interrupted by a Metronome Ruby intermission, complete with an overly glitchy an inaccurate overlay. It was played in Turbo Anarchy until the obtention of the first badge, and ended after the obtention of the second. In 2021, the first two days of April were spent playing AFD Roulette, an assortment of randomly alternating unofficial PokÃ©mon games ranging from previously-featured hacks, to bootlegs, to joke hacks. This was followed by a week of a special April Fools season of PBR, with gimmicks that included unusual metagame combinations (such as "Little Cup" with "Ubers"), the ability for PokÃ©mon to attack themselves, and Ice being super effective on Bug; on top of that, matches featured both the PBR and Stadium 2 announcers, with some modes having them speak in multiple languages at once, at different pitches, or even backwards. In 2022, two very short hacks, the bizarrely outlandish PokÃ©mon: Spheal Team Six and the laughably edgy PokÃ©mon: A Grand Day Out, were played in a row, immediately followed by a revisit of DBZ: Team Training. In 2023, the stream switched to an intermission titled "Twitch Tries TemTem", which featured the heavily PokÃ©mon-inspired independent game Temtem and lasted for the entire week.

The "curse" was finally broken with Emboar making it to the end of the Black 2 run, and while other Fire-type starters have been released since, this tendency gradually faded out over the years to the point where there is no expectation of it happening anymore. The song "Born to Lose" was first played on stream during Dual Red & Blue, following numerous failed attempts at defeating the PokÃ©mon League. Since then, it has become a running joke for the song to start playing after a particularly notable series of defeats or failures, to the point where a remix of the song was integrated into the TriHard Emerald hack.

As an example, the main protagoniste of Twitch Plays PokÃ©mon Red has been interpreted over time and through different works as a tormented victim of the voices taking over his mind, a follower of the Helix Fossil trying best as he can to trust the guidance of his Lord, a sociopathic religious zealot with a penchant for ritual sacrifice, or a literal robot void of any proper will.
