Answers to various questions: 1. Getting past the Viridian Forest trainer takes 14 A presses with the walking lag glitch, and 14 A presses by doing it the traditional way. Why did I use the first (and harder) method? If we did fight the trainer normally, our PP wouldn't be full anymore, and Brock Through Walls wouldn't work. Healing at a Pokemon Center takes 2 A presses. So I saved 2 A presses this way. 2. Why did I do a slower version of the Brock Skip? Why did I take a suboptimal path? Why didn't I fight the Fighting Dojo trainer for Missingno.? Simply because I didn't care about time saves and route optimization. I only cared about saving A presses. This TAS was only to satisfy my curiosity and prove that the route actually works, it wasn't intended to be a serious thing. 3. 69 was not on purpose.

Bomberman skip music and an "oh no wtf do I do?" pirourette at 5:44. It's these little touches that make these videos interesting. Also, the humongous deluge of software gore. Love me some of that software gore. And thanks for introducting me to the Pannenkoek2012 brand. He seems like a clever and intriguing fellow.
The skip music is from a Bomberman game for the GBA, that plays like an RPG. Can't remember the name, but you go around exploring an overworld, beating dungeons, upgrading your bombs and gaining powerups... it's an amazing game.
Oh god, your last words in the video. *You, sir, are the definition of a True Pokémon Master.* I'm so proud of being subscribed to such a great channel :^)
in the SM64 TAS community that's considered separate; a star requiring releasing A after the last A press (e.g. to punch) is called a "terminating star"; the half A press stuff is for the beginning of a star (i.e. the half A press to fall slowly onto the cloud platform in WMotR)
Seriously dude, these are the coolest videos ever. Every post makes my day and i love when you explain things to us simple minds so we can do it too! Please never stop these vids, you deserve more fans because you da real MVP
fuck this im making a need for speed with 0x a presses video wait i need to press a to accelerate oh shit ill have to beat every race while going backwards
This video is awesome. Cause its genuinely cool, and cause of all the pannen jokes. I subbed, Love your channel I really like the setup with the text on the right explaining whats going on too! Also, the A button challenge isn't strait up copying pannen either, there are already versions similar to it in other games (like Majora's mask has a pretty sweet TAS of beating the game in 3 pauses, which is in the same vain as the ABC)

Imagine slowly fainting and blacking out but then you hear a voice in the sky scream “40 ERROR.” to you and then you wake up outside your front door and an invisible trainer wants to battle you.
Literally. Pannenkoek's Watch for Rolling Rocks in 0.5x A press video shows up in the recommendations. Even the RUclips algorithms are catching on to the memes :D
Pokémon music always makes me depressed since it brings me back to 1998 when I had zero responsibilities and would just grind half a dozen hours a day, 7 days a week on this game.
And so we can see what the ABC is for, _other_ than being a meme run: it requires the runner to use glitches in unusual ways, thus creating runs that are very different from from traditional speedruns.
It was a really cute experiment! Maybe someone else will pick it up one day. Also fascinating is the fact that it's a pacifist run, which, after Undertale, is just adorable.
I like to think that when you talk to the youngster from his right he goes, "OH NO! I NEVER PREPARED FOR THIS! WHAT DO I DO??? I KNOW I'LL LET THEM WALK THROUGH WALLS!"
HOLY CRAP I'M IN A VIDEO! SOMEONE ACTUALLY DOES READ THESE! Er, *ahem* I mean, uh, someone found something I said funny enough to put on-screen in one of their videos. Most excellent.

What about the Pikachu encounter in Viridian forest? Why doesn't it crit you to save one turn (and one A press)?
A perfect critical hit from Pikachu is not enough to OHKO me (it does 17 damage if I remember correctly).

Correct. B button defaults to No at the nickname prompt.

Make sure you're QPU aligned before watching this video.
I aligned my QPU, went into a PU, conserved my VS and HS, raised my scuttlebugs and now I'm ready.

My uncle who owns a Nintendo says you can get Pikablu by beating the Elite 4 in 0x A presses.
which is physically impossible thus its impossible to get a pikablu because it isn't in the game.

"Trainers are honored for their exploits here!" I don't think this is the kind of exploits oak had in mind...
Couldn't you do it in 68.5 presses? Just don't release the last one.
A-presses for whole-game runs are always considered whole. So it rounds up.
@@吮吸固高 Its actually the opposite for whole game runs. Its rounded up in segmented run, and rounded down in whole run.
in the SM64 TAS community that's considered separate; a star requiring releasing A after the last A press (e.g. to punch) is called a "terminating star"; the half A press stuff is for the beginning of a star (i.e. the half A press to fall slowly onto the cloud platform in WMotR)

There, I pressed no buttons on the controller!
Well I played Pokemon Yellow and barely pressed A. Probably to test if it does anything. I pressed more Z than A. Like you know hundreds of Zs.

The not being able to run away a press saves were genius, great work
