Hello everyone, Starlight here with Starlight Gaming!
Now, this is the first time that I've ever played a game for Youtube before.
So, I've picked something nice and easy
especially since I've been watching
TwitchPlaysPokemon
(PRAISE LORD HELIX)
recently.
So let's hope that this doesn't fail
terribly...
Yes, Oooak...
... we know who you are...
... aaand we know what Pokemon are!
Now, this is gonna be just a standard run-play,
this isn't gonna be a speed-play
unless it accidentally ends up as one.
Aaaand...
We're just gonna name ourselves--
Ohhh...
Starlight doesn't fit.
...
Gooo figure.
Uhm...
... buhbuhbuh...
Let's just go with "STAR".
There we go.
Nice manly name.
Let's see, what're we gonna name the rival...
Uhmmm... Hm.
Gotta be something good.
Let's name him "DERP".
How does that sound, guys?
*high-pitched voice* Derp!
Cool.
His name is DERP!
You're such a good grandfather.
((rapid button pressing)) Yes, we know, we know...
This is the slowest part.
And... let's see...
Is the potion sitting in there?
Yesss!
Free potion!
Thank you.
Nothing.
Can I speed this up aaany?
Oh.
Heck no.
There we go.
But this is sooo slooow.
Yep, thanks mom.
Goodbye mom.
He's not -actually- there, though.
We're not stupid.
So let's just bumrush the grass.
Oh my goodness.
I miss being able to run.
This is KiGB, by the way, for the emulator.
Uh, it's my first time using KiGB also.
I usually use a
different emulator.
I usually use, uhm... VisualBoy.
But for some reason it's not working on Maverick for me,
so, I'm not gonna fight it.
Yeah.
Let me pick one.
Let's see.
Who're we gonna pick?
Usually people go for
Charmander or Squirtle,
so, I think we're gonna go with
Venusaur because we're gonna take pity
on the poor guy.
Or chick.
No, not Charmander.
He's adorable, though.
No.
Also forgot how weird the sprites were.
Ohh, look at those little eyes!
They're so cute!
No, we're not getting him either.
Nope.
There we go.
Yes, we want Bulbasaur.
Great!
Yeah, we're gonna name Bulbasaur.
And you know what? I'm gonna actually--
What. The. Hell.
Is with that fireflower-looking sprite?
Whatever.
Sooo
We're gonna go ahead and name him Venus
because I once read a sci-fi story that took place on the planet Venus
where everything was vegetation that could kill people.
So... that's my logic there.
Oh, you're gonna wanna fight me, aren't you..?
Screw off.
Dammit.
I don't wanna fight you.
What if I'm a pacifist?
Then I probably shouldn't be playing this game.
Alright, let's fight DERP.
Ohh, look at those angry, squinty eyes on Charmander.
Spam tackle time.
Woohoo.
Oh, this is gonna be so slow.
You're gonna kill me so much faster, too.
Ah, oh, critical hit!
OP!
I'm OP!
That's what's up.
I realized I did not take down the time that I started this,
so this might run over or it might run under.
Which is bad.
Either way, it's bad.
You know what?
I'll just consider it success
if we manage to make it to
Viridian.
We need to go to Viridian, right?
I think?
Aww yeah.
Level six!
Now the funny this is that Bulbasaur usually are male,
as we know in the later games.
So uh, if Bulbasaur does indeed end up
as a male, it's gonna be kinda weird for him to be named
Venus, but...
Ehh...
VENUSaur, Venus,
sorta works.
Let's get outta here.
Let's see, is your sister willing to give me a map yet, or do I have to wait?
I need to mug your sister.
Can I mug your sister?
Aww, no, I can't mug her yet.
Welp
Onward!
Let's see, who're we gonna kill?
'Cause that's all this grass is for at this point, is leveling.
Oh, hello, Pidgey!
You gonna die.
Who's a dead bird?
You will be, soon!
Oh, they start with gust?
That's just not right.
Wait, why didn't it do super effective damage?
I'm a grass type and gust is a flying type--
Unless it's not flying yet? Isn't it flying in first gen?
The hell? Oh well.
Wait, free potion! Free potion!
It's like running through Costco and getting all the food to have lunch!
#JustBrokeThings right there.
Alright, let's see.
Hello dude, goodbye dude.
Am I gonna make it to Viridian?
Am I gonna make it to Viridian?
Am I there yet?
Am I there yet?
Am I there yet?
Am I there yet?
Am I there yet?
I made it.
But you're not gonna give me pokéballs, are you, you bast...
...itch.
Yes, I did.
I know you're going to have me run an ... errand.
What if I said no?
You didn't give me an option!
Jerk.
Jerk, jerk, jerk, jerk...
Luckily this is like the easiest part of the game.
Aside from Brock. Brock's going to be really easy to beat, for me,
because I have Venusaur. (( actually, I have BULBASAUR... ))
In fact, Misty's gonna be easy, too.
Little bit more tough with Surge,
then it's gonna get worse from there.
Yeah, the fourth gym leader's Erika
and she's got grass type Pokémon
so I'm going to be fighting my own type at that point.
Then, after that...
Ah crap, who's number five...?
Is that psychic?
Oh no, psychic and I'm a poison type...?
Ah well...
Or I will be a poison type.
Yep, you dead.
I leveled.
I miss when that bar there counted for experience. (( like this game is newer and isn't first gen ))
Good ol' days...
Let's just keep going.
Walking through all the grass because
I don't care if I die.
Oh hey, look, it's Dig Rat!
If you don't watch Twitch Plays Pokemon, that made no sense!
*gasp* Oh, I got leech seed!
I can heal myself on this sucker!
Aww yeah!
Uhm...
At one HP at a time.
Let's just fix that real quick.
I have minor OCD, so, they need to be in size order.
The... list of moves... yeah...
Alright.
Ooh.
You gonna die.
You gonna die.
You gonna die.
Aaand
You dead.
I got experience -AND- health!
That was a good tradeoff.
Aaand I'm in another fight.
It's also really slow to respond to commands
which kinda sucks.
It's okay, I'll just leech seed you.
And have you evade it because you're a mofoin' Pidgey.
Right.
No, I didn't wanna hit growl!
Yeah, we're the most fierce Bulbasaur in all the land.
We're gonna die to this guy if we don't watch it.
Or not. He's gonna take three hits.
If he crits us, we'll be two hits.
Thank youuu.
Almost there. Yes!
Safe!
Mooom.
Mooom.
Mooom.
Mooom.
Mooom.
Thank you.
Goodbye, mom.
Probably won't talk to you again for a while.
Unless I die.
But hopefully I'll be in Pewter before that happens.
Ugh... I gotta go through Viridian...
So guys. I'll trying to decide whether or not we're gonna be trying to catch all the Pokemon or
if we're just gonna be doing... running through.
I kn-- I said this isn't a speed run.
So that's already... y'know.
Oh, right, we have to get the Pokédex.
Why you gave this to--
What are we, ten? I think?
Why you gave your Pokédex to ten year olds to fill out,
I have no idea.
By the way, what sort of researcher are you that you're giving
ten year olds - or twelve year olds? - preteens!
You're giving preteens a high-tech device to run out and fill
when you yourself are the researcher and scientist.
I mean, these guys have no certifications.
This is a terrible idea!
By the way, if you have not read the game theory about,
uh, the Pokédex being written by kids and therefore seeming extremely ridiculous,
you should probably look it up.
It's kind of amusing.
I mean, there are little comics that some people have made about it.
I think they say in the Pokédex that Macargo
is hotter than the sun.
For the record, if Macargo was h-hotter than the sun, there'd be a LOT of problems.
Uh, death, for most of the people on the planet, being number one.
But, even not looking at, uh, Macargo, they say Alakazam
has an IQ of over 5000
and and, uh, most IQ tests do not go above 200.
Sooo...
Yeah...
Yeah.
Alright, cool.
I'm gonna get us back to Viridian and theeen I'm gonna save.
Walk-a-Walk-a-Walk-a (( Wokka Wokka Wokka Wokka *pacman* ))
Actually, I should probably buy Pokéballs in Viridian and -then- save.
No.
Pokéballs, Pokécenter, save.
Yeah.
Doo dodoo do doo
Pokémart.
You gonna offer me a discount?
Because I hadda carry that thing for you?... 'course not.
Oh right, this is the old Pokémon, so we don't get a premier ball for doing stuff.
Sure.
Goodbye!
I totally meant to walk into the wall.
I toootally meant to.
I swear, he just a-adapted some of my clumsiness, that's all.
Adapted? Adopted.
Pardon my language. (( Native speaker of English... suuuure... ))
Thank you!
Cool, now we're gonna save.
Aaand I'll see you guys next time!
