Between the Gen 2 (Pokemon Crystal) and Gen 3 (Pokemon Emerald) playthroughs, the streamer played some episodes from the Pokemon anime via Game Boy Advance Video: Pokémon, I Choose You!. These episodes came from a GBA cart.
Video over the stream[]
While the videos played over the stream, input controls were left active, meaning that viewers could still input Game Boy Advance commands. This led to the video being fast-forwarded, rewound, and paused very often. The effect was said to be similar to "watching a YouTube Poop" according to many users. Some users began calling it "Twitch Plays with the Remote" or "Twitch 'Plays' Pokemon".
