Twitch Plays Pokémon/Season 3
Twitch Plays Pokémon's third season is to begin on February 12, 2016. It is anticipated to be its first 'routine' season, consisting of four runs (after the second season was extended to five runs).
Each run is the equivalent to a season episode, and can be referred to by number (e.g. S01R03). Timestamps mentioned in this article follow the format of "#d #h #m #s" (day, hour, minute, second).
R01: Pokémon Anniversary Crystal
In the same manner as how Season 2 began on the one-year anniversary of the original run, Season 3 is to begin on the original run's two-year anniversary, with a modified version of Pokémon Crystal where all 251 Generation II Pokémon can and will need to be caught to complete the run.
Gameplay changes
Based on confirmed information so far, the game looks to be more ambitious than the previous anniversary run, with the players reportedly beginning the game in Kanto and the game featuring a sophisticated external AI engine.[1] The channel's streamer has stated that over $1,000 has gone towards the development of this game[2], and the development team is known to be larger, including acclaimed creator of the hack Pokémon Brown, Koolboyman.[3]
