YouTuber's Pet Fish Streams Pokemon, Then Commits Credit Card Fraud - IGN

The fish have accomplished some pretty impressive things during these streams — in 2020, they even beat Pokemon Sapphire after a 3,195 hour run.

During a livestream 12 days ago, the fish were off to a good start in Pokemon Violet, winning a few battles and slowly but surely progressing through the story.

About 5 hours into the stream, however, the game crashed, giving the fish free access to the rest of their owner's Switch.

Luckily, according to TechSpot, the YouTuber was able to get a refund after explaining the situation to Nintendo.
