Developer didierlopes demoed a real-time voice battle system built with Opus 5.5: it uses germanburgardt's Pokemon Emerald Arena, on-device Whisper for speech recognition (250 ms), and a @typesafeai Jev agent to pick moves (250 ms) — so his 3-month-old daughter could grow up calling out Pokémon attacks like Misty. The pipeline shows how low-latency voice plus an agent can work in live gameplay.
