After three long months, I have a NEW documentary premiering today - my first video since the Blastoise rescue! Here's a link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BDClzHu-ho
-
The fact that harry is being helped by someone named gary whilst being spectated by his friend named bill is hilarious to me.
-
This guy just bought a plane ticket and flew all the way to north carolina, just to save his lil' pokemon. this is love. this is true love.
-
The true icing on the cake here was that, in the end, Hydro Cannon on the Blastoise had 7 pp, not the base 5. So the game recognized this as the EXACT pokemon he had used the items on so many years ago. absolutely incredible
-
Shout out to the other corrupted Pokémon who weren't fortunate enough to be saved. Blastoise shall carry on their legacy.
-
From a software engineer to another, Gary went absolutely NUTS. His level of knowledge on such an obscure topic and his reverse engineering process was brilliant AND he had every technical skill needed for the job. You can only reach that level when you’re truly passionate about something and he was above and beyond dedicated. Shouts out to my man
-
It's just so poetically fitting that a water pokemon would be saved by initially dabbing water on the cartridge itself.
-
The fact that it was Gary (Blue) who is clutch in saving the Blastoise is also so perfect. Gary went on to become a Pokemon researcher so to have Oaks Grandson come back to save a long lost Squirtle (Blastoise) is just so poetic.
-
It is nearly 1am. This was genuinely more gripping than anything on Netflix. Hearty well done to everyone involved.
-
It doesn't even feel like the Blastoise was cloned. It feels like the Blastoise had lost its physical form and only the soul of it remained. Through this process, they gave Blastoise its body back. Now the Blastoise can continue the adventure she shared with Harrison 15 years ago.
-
Gary is the kind of person who'd work for a software company, be the only guy who knows how the company's 60-year-old mission-critical hardware works, and be impossible for them to lay off because the company would collapse.
-
It’s me, Nintendo. I must say, everyone involved in the making of this video have demonstrated great resiliency and dedication for the preservation to our franchise. It is CLEAR our games have touched your hearts in a very deep and meaningful way. We will be sending you a cease and desist letter. Cut that shit out.
-
Midway through, I was thinking it was going to be a little sketchy. However, the fact that there is only one EV/IV combination possible means that this is the exact clone of his Pokémon. They gathered the data from original hardware, which essentially makes it his original Pokémon. I'm so happy with the solution that I almost cried.
-
I love how Gary just happened to have written the right tools for the job years ago
-
As a guy who wants to be a Computer Scientist,Gary is now my newest role model
-
I ve studied engineering and met people in the level of gary, at the very first instant he told you that "maybe" it was possible, I knew what was coming, people like him are really inspiring!
-
Gary is so knowledgeable and so cool, I genuinely want to reach out and be his friend and just watch and learn about all this stuff he knows about. I feel lile I could listen and watch forever.
-
Funniest part of all this, is that resurrecting Pokémon from nothing but a genetic sample is canonical, so this "cheating" isn't really. It's just advanced Poke-science!
-
can we also talk about how lucky it is that gary, potentially the only person on the entire planet who could pull this kind of feat off within the available timeframe, was extremely personable and friendly, and willing to drop everything to invest his full effort into carrying the entire process? not to mention the program he just happened to have sitting around on his desktop from six years ago that ended up being instrumental. what an absolute legend
-
GARY YOU ARE A LIVING LEGEND! I have not be this amazed and utterly blown away by the ability by someone in so long, mad respect to Gary
