>A New World Record For Catching The Original 151 Pokémon Quickly>Check out the new world record for catching all of the Pokémon in Red and Blue. It comes in at 2:20:19, and it's performed by Shenanagans Smash, a 21 year old guy from Ohio. The run does make use of glitches—it has to, given that it's impossible to capture Mew in Red and Blue legitimately, even with the ability to trade. Still, it's a fascinating speedrun to watch, since it dismantles the game and shows you what makes it tick. Pretty fucking cheating aside.
