With the unfathomable brokenness of Pokemon and the constant advancement of speedrunning knowledge, it was inevitable that an arbitrary pokemon catching glitch would be found that's so fast it even beats catching pokemon normally and the category boils down to demonstration of this glitch, but this still exceeds my wildest expectations. Yes vote, and time to come up with a new even more arbitrary category to make 2018 on more interesting :D EDIT: Also, while I'm thinking about it. If an additional restriction was added, disallowing catching pokemon outside of starting a battle (and thus banning the glitch used in this TAS), would the run still be trivial?

The music is good! Too bad there's only one track.

I get the same 451 error when I visit the front page. (I live in Sydney, Australia if it matters)

However, RAM/SRAM has to be initialized to something. If even an arbitrarily chosen pattern can give an unexpected advantage to ACE TASes (for example a byte arbitrarily being 0xFF can be part of the payload), what solution could possibly be chosen? What if an RTA ACE run relies on a specific RAM/SRAM pattern? It would be weird if the TAS can't beat the real time speedrun.

I unfortunately have to point out that it's rare for runs that use anything other than the highest difficulty level to be published here, though there are exceptions.
Specifically, the rules are here: http://tasvideos.org/Guidelines.html#SelectYourDifficultyWell The most common reason to play on the easiest difficulty is if all it does is make enemies have more HP, which isn't as rare as you imply (I don't know what it does for this game).

This is amazing! Console verified before even submitted, music glitch in Professor Oak's lab and a hilarious new way to break Pokemon gen 1 faster than ever before. This game never ceases to entertain.

https://www.theverge.com/tldr/2018/2/28/17062338/ai-agent-atari-q-bert-cracked-bug-cheat 'First, it completes the first level and then starts to jump from platform to platform in what seems to be a random manner. For a reason unknown to us, the game does not advance to the second round but the platforms start to blink and the agent quickly gains a huge amount of points (close to 1 million for our episode time limit).'

Very repetitive, but I love this kind of 'fill in the squares' gameplay, having grown up with Airxonix, and this was a brutal curbstomp, yes vote.

As long as every hostage dialogue box is visible for at least a frame, I can use youtube frame advance keys (, and .) to read it. :D

Voted No. The whole point of April Fools is that it's a way to goof off and let off some steam and fuck around. If it becomes a competition with winners and losers than it becomes too serious. Gruefood Delight exists for showcasing any particularly amazing April Fools TASes, anyway.

There's definitely a 'skill' behind speedrunning, and the way to tell is to look at 'blind' events, where the players haven't played this specific game before (mystery game tournaments, blind races, etc). People who tend to be good at picking up and getting good times in speedruns tend to be faster at learning and getting through games as well.

I love the pattern of the votes. It's a 9-10-11-12-13 straight! Clearly it was very hard to decide the winner among such great TASes that are all complex or important in some way.
