Following on from the success of TwitchPlaysPokemon, the latest unorthodox player is a Betta fish... and he's doing surprisingly well.

The fish in question, Grayson Hopper, can control the game by swimming around his tank. A motion tracker picks up Grayson's movement and the gameboy buttons are mapped on to eight areas of his tank.

According to the official progress update, Grayson has been playing for 125 hours, has acquired his first Pokemon (a charmander named AAAABBK,) and defeated his first opponent, the rival's squirtle.
