Pokémon Yellow Version: Special Pikachu Edition is a 1999 role-playing game developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Color. It is part of the first generation of the Pokémon franchise, and an updated re-release of the original 1998 games Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Blue Version, incorporating content loosely based on the Pokémon anime. The 2016 Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console re-release of the game was played by The D-Pad in 2016. The LP takes the form of a solo Nuzlocke played by Rick, and is not part of the existing Pokémon Rivals Nuzlocke series. Episodes were streamed live on The D-Pad's YouTube channel. The LP consisted of 4 episodes; it began on February 27, 2016, and the most recent was uploaded on August 21, 2018. Rick has indicated his intention to eventually finish the LP.

Trivia
- Although initially intended to be a weekly stream, Pokémon Yellow developed one of the most inconsistent schedules of any LP on the channel, with 18 months passing between episodes in one instance.
- At just over 10 hours, the first episode of the LP is the longest video the channel has ever produced.
