On March 1, 2014 the viewers of the TwitchPlaysPokemon stream, a stream on twitch.tv, overcame great adversity to cooperatively beat the final boss of Pokemon Red Version, thus beating the game. It took a constant team of 50,000+ people over 391 hours to accomplish this feat. They did this through a remarkable combination of teamwork and planning, and through the guidance of the Helix Fossil (an in-game item). Due to their admirable perseverance in the face of adversity, and the overall accomplishment of such a tremendous task, we ask you to acknowledge March 1st as National Helix Day.
