You can't do that in C++ on the code playground. The way it works is that it compiles and executes the program on a remote server, and when it finishes (or after a time limit is reached), the output is sent to us. But you can do that in javascript for example, since the code runs client-side.

@Zen Thanks! I made a code 'Get your starter pokemon' and I wanted to print two statement and then a delay before printing the final statement which would declare which Pokémon the user got. But I guess I can't do anything about it. :( (At least not in C++) @Rohit @Misha Thanks for your response too.
