For the longest time, I had no idea that Koga was intended to be fought before Sabrina.

It just made sense to me to go for Sabrina. You get drinks in Celadon, which lets you get to Sabrina's gym, and then after Koga, you can get the Surf TM which lets you get to Cinnabar.

I have a message from another time...

I always thought got the badges in random order after Lt. Surge. Sometimes I went after Sabrina before Erika. XD

Wait, you fight Koga after Sabrina?

Oh really when?

You can do the 4th, 5th, and 6th gym leaders in any order you want, but in terms of difficulty, it goes Erika -> Koga -> Sabrina. I usually fought Sabrina first, though, just because she's close to Celadon.

Technically you could even skip over Lt. Surge, too. But yeah, Erika almost always goes first and Sabrina and Koga are interchangeable. I usually went for Sabrina first because she was closer.

I haven't played Gen 1 but I did start with Surge when I went to Kanto in HG.

In gold/silver/crystal/heartgold/soulsilver, the Kanto Gym leaders are done in an entirely different order. Actually, I think they can be done in any order, correct me if I'm wrong.

That's true. If you wanted, you could do Blue first, and Brock last.

Jesus, at this rate I'm almost worried they're gonna be done before I'm finally free of working on my thesis.

I thought you needed to defeat all the others before Blue would show up?

@Straw: That may be true, actually. So you can do them out of order, except for Blue who must come last, if that's true.

Full screened the stream on a second monitor at work yesterday. Surprisingly was only judged aloud once, and it was by an engineer

An engineer of all people? Not, like, the secratary?

So I heard they beat Giovanni. What's next?

Oh lord, there's another one. And apparently those guys already beat Blue (the game, not the rival).

I refuse to believe that without proof

I have found proof. Jesus... how even? It's gotta be because there were far less people watching the stream, so the inputs weren't as chaotic.

Well all the engineers on our team except him ended up staring at it for like an hour while he was trying to figure out some hard problems. Our PM is constantly in meetings, but I also think she'd probably get the rage if we told her about Bird Jesus, and if she didn't, she doesn't care about how we waste our time. Our designer would probably have judged the fuck out of us but she was out yesterday (also guess whose monitor I was using)

I'd have used the projector if it didn't generate 8164901 megajoules of heat and 1848db of noise.

Ah I can see why he'd judge then. But still, that reaction from all the rest is awesome.

If I recall correctly, due to a programming bug there's a 1/256 chance of any supposedly 100% acc attack that isn't Swift missing... or was that Pokeballs? Assuming that didn't happen due to acc debuffs/evasion buffs.

That's a bit TOO perfect, considering spiral energy and helix.

We will defeat the Elite Four using our DOUBLE HELIX. There was a comment on the image abou- HERE

"Mark my words! This drill will open a hole in the universe! And that hole will be a path for those behind us! The dreams of those who've fallen! (Abby, Jay Leno, CCC, Mr. X) The hopes of those who'll follow! Those two sets of dreams weave together into a double helix! Drilling a path towards tomorrow! And that's Anarchy Toppa! That's Helix Lagann!! My drill is the drill...that creates the heavens!!!"

At this rate it will become canon tongue

the reaction was best for my other coworkers who had known about the stream passed by and asked about progress and I told them "5 badges and beat the safari zone" and they were like
