First Game Freak video got posted, no English subs unfortunately.

Let's Horribly Break Pokemon Blue continues! Sorry for taking last month off, I was focusing all my efforts on another video that I uploaded last month.
I really like your videos. It’s always amusing to see how broken some of the older games can get.
Pokémon GO probably the game with the least discussion on here, but here's a snippet that I edited from a Tournament held in my city.

The combat is certainly not as tactical as mainline series games, but I personally found it fun to watch even if it's just a tapfest at its core. There's some kind of strategy involved in multiple Charged Moves, Protect Shields and Switching Mons that make it more interesting.
Picked up my GBA a while ago when visiting my parents and finished something I held off for years.

Took me a total of 56 hours across 4 games (Ruby, Emerald, Fire Red and Colosseum), but now I can finally cross that off. I probably could have done it in a lot less time, but I misplaced my Gamecube mem card. Had to order a new one from the Internet and then spent 18 hours trying to 100% Colosseum.
I was also happy to learn that you don't need the event-only mons to get this certificate, as the only one I had was Deoxys.
Been working on something neat for VBA in my spare time for a while now, got something I like now, any suggestions for the next color I should do would be appreciated.

With Black/White, is there any Post-Game story or once I beat Elite 4/N, can I just start B2/W2?
I know there was with ORAS, so I just wanna make sure before I beat this one.
Did Platinum btw? I stopped playing it once I beat the Elite 4.
Story? iirc no. But you do have the eastern side Unova to visit?
That's neat I guess.
I don't really like doing Post-Game content unless absolutely necessary (like plot).
It seems that most of the Post-Game content in Pokemon games are completely optional.
Can I just get a confirmation on that?
After you beat N there's still a few things you can do. Story wise you'd probably like to search for the remaining Team Plasma Sages. They're scattered throughout Unova and a familiar face assists you
with this. In addition to this you can rechallenge the E4 again since you technically didn't beat Alder the first time around.
Besides those things there's nothing else plot crucial.
There is, like, a large chunk of the map that is now open to explore and if I remember there is some lore to the new places but the main story does not continue.
just go rematch the elite 4 cuz you aren't really champ yet after the story
There's a giant level gap and I don't really feel like grinding just to rematch and gain a title.
don't really see the point in skipping out on good post-game content but you do you I guess
TCG cards that give a better look at Detective Pikachu's Greninja and Charizard.

Bulbasaur is getting a toy as well, and I'm not sure if these designs translate well to toy form.

drew some bois
that second one is unnervingly cute, I'm confused.
The second one looks like the god damn master hand using his laser move.

Cranking out updates like it's nobody's business. Even if you haven't been following along this part works as a standalone.
I know this has come up in the thread before, but glitches in the original game is nightmare-inducing. The somewhat off spritework and shrill music does not help.
I used to get anxiety when reading about missing no. and glitch city and all that.
For real. I have some pretty notable experiences I recorded.
MissingNo crashes in Red/Green because its sprite dimensions are 0, 0. If you force it to have dimensions, you get some very strange (and kinda creepy) results like this

Italian MissingNo also does something similar, but it instead floods the audio engine (volume warning)

Glitches feels too elaborated to be mistakes and oversights when every step and event can be altered from one single point.
When I first heard about placeholders and stuff in this game I thought it would be simple graphical bugs and pointer errors like any other game of its time, nothing too different from messing around with hexadecimal addresses. Make the game take random or corrupted pieces of memory and congratulations, you have a glitchfest.
You encountered this 23 foot tall wall of scrambled data called Missingno? Your party below the position of this glitch is now corrupted, your sound channels are affected and the vram gets slapped.
This pokemon with a Super Glitch or Cooltrainer move? Use it wrong on a physical copy and your cartridge can be damaged. You can also corrupt and delete others savefile via link battle.
You want to step aside from invalid pokemon and try invalid maps instead? Why not map E7?
Without proper error handling and protection measures the games run as much as possible before crashing due to corruption. And it is impressive to see how much it can take in its simplicity.
Mess around in a zoo, get trapped in purgatory
LIke, there is a legitimate horror-story there
This video was posted on Instagram several days ago, but because it needed to cropped it was complete rubbish.

I'm super surprised that we still haven't got any news on next gen. If my memory serves it usually begins within the first months of the year?
My favorite explanation isn't how "poorly" the games are coded, but just how they refuse to crash which is so admirable.
It's a fascinating artifact of a time when such simple low level code didn't test or verify the integrity of its data, so if random or garbage data is in a location and the game pulls it from there, it'll just draw it to the screen, no questions asked. That's why so many glitches draw nonsense garbage to the screen, or how items and Pokemon are used to edit memory locations.
