Alright /vp/, it's the new year, so I think we should kick it off with a good ol' fashioned randomized playthrough of Gen I.
>What is this?
This is a Pokemon Red rom that has been altered to include 151 random pokemon up to Gen VI, among other things.
>What's been randomized?
Trainers, Trainer Pokemon, Trainer Classes, Wild Pokemon, and Items have been randomized. Also, trade pokemon evolve at level 42, and the game has been rebalanced to the Yellow difficulty curve.
>How'd you do this?

>How's this going to work?
We're all going to play through the game together. To decide if we catch a pokemon, what we nickname a pokemon, what starters we take, names, and everything of the sort, I'll be asking for certain numbers. Outside of that, we'll generally be taking the most popular opinions and options. If I don't get responses to a post that needs feedback within 10 minutes, I'll just move on.
Without further adieu, let's get this show on the road!
Oak? You're not looking to great, buddy.
LEGGO
Lets go!
Bug Catcher Oak sends out Kyogre!
Well, /vp/? What's our name?
First reply with an even number gets to decide.

We're now the trainer known as Besin Man. Our father named us.

Fucking Leroy. Always getting the better names and shit.
And so, Besin Man's journey begins!
Before we leave, we say goodbye to our androgynous parental unit.
Cute technology waifu
We decide that we've had it with this shitty little town, and attempt to escape. However, the resident cycle-enthusiast/professor decides we're not man enough and stops us.
>>31151912
This is going to happen a lot, I'm an idiot.
Introducing LEROY, our middle aged balding rival with a penchant for calling people "gramps", in some sort of desperate attempt to fool himself into thinking he's hip.
Here it is, the most important choice of the thread: our starter.
>>31151942
Squirtle
First up, we have Purrloin, the hypnosis pokemon.
>>31151948
sorry i'm a fucking idiot
Option 2: Solrock, the punching(?) pokemon
>>31151942
Charmander
And finally, Reuniclus, the transport pokemon.
First reply to this post with a 4, 6, or 0 gets to decide which one we pick.
>>31151974
use jelly fetus man
>>31151974
Purrloin.
>>31151963
why does solrock look like that
>>31151980
That works too.
>>31151980
That was quick.
First reply to this post with a 7, 8, or 9 gets to pick the nickname.
>>31151983
That particular solrock unfortunately has downs syndrome.

Luisa it is. According to the game, LEROY picked out the Purrloin, although I'm not sure I believe that. Also, does he look different?
>>31152029
AHHHHHHHH
>>31152029
I think it's one of his later sprites rather than the one from the usual opening rival fight.
A H H H H H
Alright, so Luisa's back sprite is obviously a little tiny bit fucked.
At least it gets psywave early on.
>>31152029
He has three battle sprites, this one is his champion form
Alright so mega drain fucking destroys this early in the game, who would have thought.
>>31152073
Still better than the likes of Venusaur or Ivysaur.
Whimsicott likes to toy with its victims before it goes for the kill.
Fuck off, LEROY.
Alright, let's fucking adventure.
First encounter of the game, worst starter in the series. Yeah I fucking said it.
>>31152143
Its sprite looks so stupid and cute at the same time
After another Oshawott encounter, it appears that we have found ourselves an actual bonafide Gen I mon.
Luisa promptly mindcrushed it.
The economy is really having a serious toll on the pokemon center industry. Now they've had to lay off all the Nurse Joys, instead opting for the far less expensive Clefairy.
Hey, it's that guy from the intro!
huge spoiler for the future of the thread:we will not be completing the pokedex
Hey, Furret is in the game!
I love Furret.
>>31152277
>Furret
Heck yeah, you gotta catch one and make it the ace of the team.
>>31152277
Is that a midget Furret?
OH GOD ANOTHER ONE
Alright, from here on out, we have access to Pokeballs. So from now on, any pokemon that we see in a wild encounter is fair game for the team. We should have three pokemon on the team before we challenge Brock, so let's go through and see some of our options.
>>31152300
Vertically challenged.
MY BOY HERACROSS HAS REVEALED ITS BEAUTIFUL FACE IN VIRIDIAN FOREST.
>>31152335
catch it
Lot's of pokemart employees advertising in the woods.
>>31152339
Alright, Heracross will be attempted to be caught. I'll still go through and see what else we can see.
This is a serious downgrade from Heracross
This randomization seems to be very partial to Gen V pokemon
Alright, we'll continue this tomorrow. I'm a tiny bit too drunk to continue. Happy New Year everybody, and good night.
>>31152197
What do the Nurse Joys do now? AV?
>>31152358
Better than the original.
