UPDATE 18/1/21: Astonishingly, players are continuing to control a copy of Pokémon Red through someone’s Twitter avatar and, one week on, Twitter has somehow beaten Water gym leader Misty.
Now you can play along using someone’s Twitter avatar.
The game will then upload a screenshot to Twitter, as the account’s 400×400 avatar picture.
Following in the footsteps of the popular Twitch Plays Pokémon, this crowd-controlled version of Pokémon Red asks for your inputs to affect the game.
