The Most Incredible Fan Art from Twitch Plays Pokemon

Dorkly writes: In the early hours of March 1st, 2014, Twitch Plays Pokemon came to an end. The thousands upon thousands of players had - over the course of nearly 400 hours - completed a single game of Pokemon. In the process, memes and religions and lore were birthed - and from that, fan art. So much fan art. So much incredible, brilliant fan art, all based around one of the weirdest and most compelling pieces of internet phenomena in recent memory (click here for a complete guide to the Generation 1 Twitch Plays Pokemon)

And we would like to remember the brilliant fan art created by sharing some of the best examples with you now. Enjoy!

I've never got into Pokémon. Don't know where to start. Any advice?

WeAreLegion4095d ago

Start out with Fire Red or Leaf Green. They explain a lot of things better than the original versions. I'd go in this order:

Fire Red/Leaf Green
Heart Gold/Soul Silver
Emerald
Platinum
Black/White 1 and 2
X/Y

If you haven't played Pokemon Snap, you're missing out. It's fantastic!

Kavorklestein4095d ago

Yeah, I don't really like the new ones. Fire Red and Leaf Green are the best of the post 2001 versions of the game. Too many types and evolutions. Not fun for me.

Kavorklestein4095d ago

Do yourself a favor, and play pokemon yellow version. You have a little pikachu following you on this version,the character models are more detailed/less simple, and it has 150 types of pokemon, and you'll be less overwhelmed with how many there are to collect, instead of the like 700 types there are now, and you don't have all the ridiculous elementals/types of pokemon to keep track of lol.

I gotta say, while most of them were pretty amazing. That last one gave me the feels.

Is anyone expecting anything less? It will be exclusive to Switch 2 eventhough it will still look like a 3DS game

Inverno22d ago

I think the 3DS games look better than anything GF released on Switch.

--Onilink--22d ago

To be fair, The Pokemon Company operates quite independently, so it wouldn’t have been that strange for a Pokemon game coming out in just the 2nd year of the S2’s life to still be crossgen. I mean, just how long into the PS5 and SX life are we and we are still seeing plenty of crossgen stuff

gold_drake22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

not surprised.

nintendo was prepared to have some games sell the console.

im sure the game will still look like its from the ps2 era tho.

coldfire98421d ago

that is in part because of the chip shortage when everyone over reacted to sars in 2019.

Kosic22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

I've lost interest in pokemon, the mega evolve stuff was a poor digimon rip off, then the stuttering mess the 3d versions are.
I'd love a remake of gold/silver in a top down view like lets go pikachu had, but sticking with the traditional pokemon mechanics.

CrimsonWing6921d ago

Uh, yea, that’s how console generations are supposed to work…
