4,000 attempts later, Pokémon have been transferred in the most difficult way possible

At this point, you might think it’s impossible to complete Pokémon Red/Blue in a way that presents a challenge. After all, the Internet has managed to complete it by messing around on Twitch almost randomly, so how can a Game Boy game become complicated? Well, perhaps you should ask a streamer who, after 3,978 attempts, which took him a year and three months, has managed to finish it in an almost impossible way.

Super hard poke

These are the rules (which, obviously, are only achievable with PC bots, not on the handheld console): The Pokémon, their moves, and items are completely random; you can only use one creature; the level of enemies increases by 50%; you cannot defeat wild ones (and, therefore, you cannot gain their experience)… The possibility of completing something like this is basically impossible. And yet.

PointCrow, as the player is called, managed to complete the game thanks to a Flareon that, by pure chance, had the correct moves to continue. He is not the only one who has achieved it: last year, SmallAnt did it after only 1786 attempts, thanks to a Skarmory. And then, what’s next? Well, then he set out to complete Pokémon Sun with his own rules, playing it in a language he doesn’t speak (German) and doing ten squats every time a Pokémon fainted. That’s what you call love for the franchise.
