==The Pokémon Marathon== | ==The Pokémon Marathon== | ||
On December 19, 2008, at 5:00 PM CST, the Speed Gamers began their first ever Pokémon Marathon. Their goal was to capture every single [[Pokémon]] possibly obtainable in America at the time. This meant that they intended to capture 491 Pokémon, excluding {{p|Shaymin}} and {{p|Arceus}}. While they attempted to catch all 491 Pokémon, they only caught 429 Pokémon due to technical issues. Additionally, they went over their time limit. | On December 19, 2008, at 5:00 PM CST, the Speed Gamers began their first ever Pokémon Marathon.
