If you fancy wasting away part of your Valentine’s Day then head over to Twitch Plays Pokemon which, thanks to a clever emulator, is enabling thousands of people to input text-based commands to crowd-control Pokemon Red/Blue.

The Twitch Chat can understand basic commands including directions, A, B, Start and Select.
