Pokyfriends - Bots

(2022) Worlds of ZZT - Mastodon

A copy of the Worlds of ZZT Twitter bot, now posting to Mastodon. Assuming I remember to migrate it off Botsin.space, this would should continue to post ZZT board screenshots and Worlds of ZZT announcements.

(2018) Pokédex Ebooks - Mastodon

A Mastodon version of the Pokedex Ebooks Twitter bot. Identical in every way. At some point the script broke and the overall lack of followers on Mastodon combined with my own unwillingness to bother fixing in led to its closure.

(2018) Pokémon Art Museum

Pokemon Art Museum was a Twitter bot which would post archived Pokemon Art Academy Miiverse posts, sharing artwork which had been destroyed when Nintendo shut down the Miiverse network.

(2017) PMD Everyword

PMD Everyword was a Twitter bot which would take two words and post a generated box art edit of the games Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness with the last word of the titles replaced with the rolled words.

(2017) Super Show Screens

Super Show Screens was a commissioned Twitter bot which would post every frame of every episode of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show cartoon segments in order. It is perhaps most famous for the sheer number of frames of King Koopa's feet being licked in a row.

(2016) BEMANIbooks

A Twitter bot that would post randomly selected background images for songs used in official (and some unofficial) Dance Dance Revolution games. Used an old burned DVD of StepMania song packs as its media source.

(2016) GDQ is no. 1

An unofficial Twitter bot that was only active during Games Done Quick marathons. The bot would scan what GDQ was currently playing, and if that game was the game with the highest viewer count then announce it as the #1 game on Twitch. A screenshot would be attached showing the top game list with games like "Superman 64" having more viewers than League/Fortnite/etc.

(2016) Poké Harem

A Twitter bot that used the Pokedex entry for Salazzle and replaced the Pokemon species and genders with randomly chosen alternatives. "Pikachu creates a reverse harem of gendeless Wigglytuff" and such.

(2016) Worlds of ZZT - Twitter

The original Worlds of ZZT Twitter bot. Every three hours a randomly rolled ZZT screenshot would be posted with links to the world on the Museum of ZZT to view the world of play it online.

(2015) Bun EBooks

A commissioned Twitter bot that used Markov chains and a copy of the commissioner's Twitter archive for its source text. In addition to random posts, it would also respond to any replies.

(2015) Flowey's Advice

A Twitter bot that took Flowey's advice in Undertale and replaced the verb with a newly chosen one. "In this world, it's [verb] or be [verbed]!"

(2014) Pokédex Ebooks

A Twitter bot that used markov chains built from script dumps of Pokedex entries.
