Twitch Plays Pokémon (TPP) is a series of social experiments that started in February 2014 in which commands representing buttons on an original original Nintendo DS (up, down, left, right, A, B, X, Y, L, R, start,) and touchscreen coordinates are entered into a chat on Twitch, and then translated into a game of Pokémon via an IRC bot. In short, thousands of people are fighting over a controller. Throughout its life, Twitch Plays Pokémon has spawned hilarious characters, memorable moments, and even a few religions.The seventh entry in the series takes the Mob to Unova, where their worst fear shall be realized: A whole Team dedicated to releasing Pokémon.The run began at 00:00 ED, June 14th, 2014 after the completion of Twitch Plays Pokémon HeartGold. It was completed on June 26th, 2014, and will be followed by Twitch Plays Pokémon Black 2.See also here for the archived progress of the game, here for the archived status of the run, or here for live updates, which have been archived here. There is also a recap page, found here. |

Darker and Edgier: The fact that the Mob didn't even make it through two days without getting most of the party killed off shows that things are way more serious this time around. As of Day 8, there have been more releases in Black than any run since Red, and currently more than Crystal, Emerald and FireRed combined. Clearly Team Plasma has had an influence here. |

Peninsula of Power Leveling: Doctors and Nurses, who are found in the middle of a route and heal the party, were introduced this generation. Two places the Mob liked to go to in particular are the Desert Resort and Victory Road. |

Anticlimax: After struggling for 62 runs against the Elite Four, N and Ghetsis were taken down on the first try each, without Reshiram. Tropes Are Not Bad, though, as that's really awesome in its own right. |

Alternate Continuity / Gaiden Game: After beating the game and returning to the title screen, the Mob selected the New Game option and selected a female protagonist. However, they were quickly cut off by the streamer after the initial battles with Cheren and Bianca. |

Long Song, Short Scene: Averted in areas where a normal player wouldn't spend more than a few seconds in, like the hallways connecting routes and settlements. GMYC sometimes takes a while to get through, so the song plays its full duration. |

Low-Level Run |
| | Twitch Plays Pokémon Black (Web Video) / int_51b3b8d6 |
comment |
Low-Level Run: Of the "no evolutions" variety. Started off as accidental due to trolls cancelling every evolution, but once the streamer said he'd force evolutions in Black 2 if nothing ended up evolving, it became a strategy of sorts. |

Trapped in Another World |
| | Twitch Plays Pokémon Black (Web Video) / int_b58642b1 |
comment |
Trapped in Another World: Entralink. The Mob kept entering it and halting progress until it was disabled. Technically, the Entralink is actually an island in the center of Unova. But considering the only way to or from there is by teleporting, as well as the fact that it serves as a gate to other universes in the actual games, it's not that big of a stretch. |

Sadistic Choice: Streamer's answer to the problem of Trolls is one of these. Either they can keep trolling Black, only for the next run to implement an evolution-forcing Action Replay code; or they can let a Pokemon evolve. |
