Literally the only time in history you will see a room full of people applaud an encounter with a zubat.

There's a moment where he's looking for a zubat, and can't find one. I have seen some bad stuff in my day, but that's just fucked up.

I love how this run category is "Let's use the game to re-code itself to the point of unrecognizable levels of graphical artifacts." It's almost a form of art how broken the Gen1 code was, but also really clever to watch people both figure out how to exploit it and do so in a way that doesn't cause crashes.

No matter what kind of pokemon player you are if you're a casual player or a hardcore speed runner zubat will always find a way to troll you

Oak must've been shattered when he saw the ten year old appear at his doorstep 2 hours after he was given the pokedex with it complete!!

After counting to 17, "You learn to count by playing Pokemon." Several years later, in a GDQ Crystal run, Keizaron used the lessons learned from this run- how to count to 17- to still miss his original estimate. I love when the foreshadowing pays off!

Oak: I need you to catch all pokemon in the world, here's a pokedex to help you on your quest. 2 hours later: Here you go ^_^

it's a shame we don't know the complexities of the universe like we do the game code in pokemon blue...

Watching this speedrun is like watching Doctor Strange play Pokemon; just a series of incomprehensible arcane incantations and spells that allow him to bend reality to his whims while he collects all of the Pokemon in the world.

Kanto News, I'm Ann Corman. A trainer known as DayNine began his journey today and through breaking reality has managed to enter the hall of fame and catch 151 different species of Pokemon in less than 2 hours. In other news, Team Rocket is still at large.

"I don't want to break the game" THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THE UNDERTAKER TOLD JOHN CENA

Shenanagans is such an entertaining runner oh my God.

The announcer lady is pretty awesome, unlike most GDQ announcers she never interrupts the runners/commentators and only reads when the runner is okay with it, and when she does read she's actually entertaining and energetic.

My gosh these guys are real geniuses. Yesterday I learned how to make mac and cheese and these guys probably... Knew that already

Considering the only glitch we knew when I started playing Pokemon was Missingno on the right shore on Cinnabar Island... This has come a long way.

I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that this run is one of the most interesting things I've ever seen.

1:58:07 holy shit the amazing mashup between the battle and Lavender themes as he catches dratini, amazing stuff

I love how a lot of these speedrunners turn it into a performance.

Nowhere else on the internet will you encounter a group of people applauding because the runner encountered a Zubat.

Gold : so Red, where did you find Venasaur and Blastoise if you only pick Charmender as beginner pokemon? And Thats the reason Red never talks.

it really starts at 9:42

We're gonna talk to this sign and get a few Eevees. It's really convenient they're just in the sign or something.

Store Clerk: "Take your time." Oh, the irony.

This guy is awesome, he presents what he is doing so joyfully, kuddos to him.

This just blew my mind. The amount of prep, research, and practice it took to do it so flawlessly is mind-boggling. I have no clue what any of those underflows and glitches were about but still was entertaining to watch

I've never seen people get so excited over Zubat

Felt so good how everything went well, it's like the opposite of my life

"godda be careful with this stuff, i don't wanna break the game or anything"

I come back to this run a lot simply because of Shen's goofy and yet incredibly insightful commentary. From the moment I saw the rival childhood friend joke I knew it was going to be an incredible run. Thanks again to the runner, couch, and everyone else involved in putting this great content out there!

"Gee, I'm thirsty. Oh wait there, road's closed." Red: didn't ask

I used like 50-60 great balls to catch zapdos. It was the longest 30 mins of my life. GG, childhood ruined.

You can tell it was 2015 by the name of Mew and the crowd reaction

So we had a Red go around completely randomly now we have one who reaches into his backpack and can completely mess with the fabric of reality.

Does anyone else genuinely love some of the old school sprites? I would love for pokemon to bring back one or 2 of em as event mons

I forgot how weird some of these pokemon looked in the first gen.

37:20-37:53 Metal Gear Shenanagans

2:08:10 Oak: This is where Pokémon Champions are honored for their exploits. LOL

as a child i must of spent month doing this. i completed all 3 of the titles and traded. took ages. he did it in under 2 hours. how humiliating... childhood crushed lol

Never expected a speedrun to be so entertaining! awesome guy

1:15:30 Only in speedruns is actually encountering a Zubat a desirable thing that seems to be very difficult.

*Brings back Mewtew, Mew, and all three legendary birds to Prof. Oak* "What's a Pidgey?"

I love those glitchless speedruns.

Never heard somebody complain that they weren't running into a zubat before

"John Cena, enough! Come back!" "Go, JOHN CENA!"

Man, I've never seen someone suffer because of a *lack* of zubats before!

I wish I could stay so serene and nonchalant when literally every other thing crashes the game and makes everything I had done thus far irrelevant. At 1:58:09, the game is basically telling you, "Fuck off, can I die in peace already?" It sounds like it's flatlining.

How to get 151 Pokemon in Pokemon Blue version! BREAK THE GAME! A LOT!

1:58:10 was the most horrifying music and screen i have ever experienced in my life,

This guy's sank else, smart guy. All for charity as well. All respect to you guys. Love it.

One of the most sick speedruns on AGDQ! Shenanagans is a great runner, and it amazes me to see how good he managed to go through all of these glitches/bugs. 151 Pokemon in under 2 hours is just insane. Other people sat on that for months! The Views are well deserved, this was an awesome run and commentary.

I never thought that there was anything more intense than the Elite Four. Until I saw this run.

20:26 almost 20 years playing pokemon and only today i've discovered that is possible to change the order of attacks..... i'm shocked....

wow, honestly, i didn't expect to watch it fully lol was planning just to check it out but HERE I AM ! watch the whole thing, wp man, i had a great time :D

Day9 shoutouts even in communities he's not involved in. Dude's a legend and a scholar

And for my next trick I'll turn this Blastoise into Oddish!

ive seen this many times overs and i still dont get bored, amazing vid

Guy 1: "I want to get all 151 gen 1 pokemon and transfer them to sun and moon, but it would take forever" Guy 2: "Dude, it would only take like 2 hours..."

Huge props to Shen, all the couch and the excellent announcer; energy, humour and a quality speedrun.

The fact that zubat was a hard encounter made my day

seriously, well done. i could not in a million years pull off a run like this with so much shit to remember and the many ways to crash the game. absolutely brilliant.

Holy shit, Exarion and ExtraTricky were on the couch? Insane, its a room full of legends. The greatest of all time were in that room together. o.O

childhood goals in 2 hours

He almost beat the Machop. Next time will be the one...

Gotta love that Day[9] donation.

Forget trading with your friends, THIS is how you catch all 151 Pokémon!

"You run it. You have an excuse." was probably one of the funniest, truest things I've heard in a while.

I really hope shenanagans submits another run for agdq. this run was really entertaining, enlightening and just awesome to watch in general!

In this run, the rarest thing happened: someone couldn't find a zubat

guy took the "gotta catch them all" to the extreme

"We're picking Bulbasaur as our starter." Ah, truly the most cultured of individuals.

1:24 His name is Tomas Turbando. Which is a brazillian joke to "I'm Masturbating". Way to go Brazil... Way to go... :P

Considering Dratini was your last official wild pokemon capture in this run, I thought it was very fitting it got a remixed fast version of Lavender Tower's music. It was the game's answer to the "final boss" of menu mashing you used throughout the entire run; which I thought was a really cool way to go out. Nice run, Shenanagans!

Shenanigans is also a great commentator ..good work brother

I'm so glad I was part of the original Pokémon craze back in the 90's. Sooo many rare candies obtained... unauthentically

For some reason I find gen 1 Sandshrew to be obscenely cute. It is the most adorable and livable Sprite ever.

Why was it an incentive to make his name Day9? Does it have anything to do with the Hearthstone/starcraft player?

at 1:17:59 there is an item called John.

The amount of knowledge this takes genuinely blows my mind, granted in a game that I've played as much as these people have I could probably do the same it's still crazy to hear someone talk about a game I know almost nothing about

Wow, I find it extra impressive he's able to give entertaining banter and commentary while performing this complex run for the full 2 hours!

My favourite part is that the parents probably have no clue what’s happening with anything that’s hes doing. But they still watching which is wholesome.

Lol wow, this was an amazingly glitchtastic run. Kinda insane how much code manipulation he's able to do. Fairly entertaining run, too, which is impressive considering how much time was spent staring at menus. Well done.

This is the most impressive understanding of glitches, bug and tricks i've ever seen

26:12 “Wait! Don’t say a word!” As if he needs to worry about that when talking to Red. 😂

So cool that Shenanagans' family supports him :D Sick run and glitches!

52:53 "Level 0 is a good middle ground to start..." wtf xD

I like this runner a lot, great explanation of what he's doing

It's so weird watching this and Keiz not being as talkative as he normally is now.

Oak: "Congratulations DayNine! This floor is the POKeMON HALL OF FAME! Champions are honored for their exploits here!"

Holy shit, this got so complicated real fast than i expected

“Man… you know what would make this game better? Guns and a crafting system”

I gotta love the donation reader reading out the AGDQ version Team Rocket speech.

I swear I can hear the game screaming in agony with the glitches used in this run, lmao

I have never seen a speedrun where someone bothers to nickname their pokemon

RRRRmnzx: You still struggling along back here? I caught 40 kinds of pokemon, bro! DayNine: Yeah, I went to the 4th dimension to obtain literally every pokedex entry, including Mew, and I teleported into the Hall of Fame to put my Level 36 Pidgeot there.

Man, I understood so little about the technical stuff in this run, but it was such an entertaining run. Great job.

Easily the most rng speed run I've ever seen.

Lol this is one of the most enjoyable speed runs I've watched

this is probably my favorite speedrun i’ve ever watched. interesting category, impeccable execution, crazy lucky rng, knowledgeable runner, this one has everything

22:10-24:00- brock skip glitch
