Sidegame is a currently disabled feature of PBR seasons. Starting after the conclusion of the first run of [[Twitch Plays Pokémon/Season 2|Season 2]] (known as [[Twitch Plays Pokémon/Season 2#R01: Anniversary Red|Anniversary Red Version]] by fans), a run of the [[ROM hacks#Pokémon Vietnamese Crystal|Pokémon Vietnamese Crystal]] [[ROM hacks|ROM hack]] was started as filler in between betting matches. Chat commands operated similarly to Democracy, where the command with the highest number of votes would be selected. Unlike Democracy, however, players were able to vote for only one command at a time, after which the game was paused and only resumed after the next betting match. At the end of each vote, a player was randomly selected to receive a token. Players also could choose to donate tokens to a pool, increasing the number of tokens distributed after an input was selected. This was nicknamed a 'token storm'.

After the completion of Pokémon Vietnamese Crystal, a run of [[Pokémon Trading Card Game (game)|Pokémon Trading Card Game]] was started in its place with the same format. This was changed to an intermission game in the run-up to [[Twitch Plays Pokémon/Season 3|Season 3]], and completed just before the season began.

Starting with Season 3, the sidegame underwent a major change. Instead of voting between and being paused during matches, the sidegame ran in the lower-right of the screen. Players voted through the Twitch private chat system (known as Whispers), and the command with the most votes were executed every 240 seconds. Token giveaways were retired for token bribes, whereby a player would offer their tokens as incentive for other players to vote for a command of their choosing. A new sidegame, [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team]], was started with this new system. At some point, however, the sidegame system reverted to its old format.
