Pokémon Blue - Custom Starter ROM - Gyarados route - Pokédoll/NoIT ----- NOTES - - name shortening : - DR = Dragon Rage | HP = Hydro Pump | BB = Bubblebeam - BS = Body Slam | TB = Thunderbolt | IB = Ice Beam - - bullet point icons : - : regular action / additional information # : battle } : battle info @ : menuing $ : mart/ - - in marts : $ : buying \ : selling - - 76.9% OHKO (30/39) better than 80% Hydro Pump accuracy - because Gyara crit ratio is 40/256 (~15.8%) => 80.5% kill - - healing thresholds are built as follows : - min health assumes a 10% death risk at max. - max health assumes max redbar HP at the end of the battle + average damage taken - more details here : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B57atPxPKLcPsmGrIXQzEjnrcNQt95S0bF7NwxHWsho/edit?usp=sharing - - during menus, you might see the notation "X Start" with X being a number, sometimes followed by "1/2" - these are input aids and work as follows : - 1 Start = press down and hold, press right and hold, press Start (this scrolls a total of 3 slots) - X Start = (X bigger or equal to 2) - perform "1 Start" - release all but down, press left and hold, press Start - you just performed "2 Start" (this scrolls a total of 5 slots) - release all but down, press right and hold, press Start - you just performed "3 Start" (this scrolls a total of 7 slots) - etc. - "1/2" = you don't press Start after the last directional input - this technique might be surprising, but allows the runner to get rid of most of yoloscrolls when using keyboard - - beware of "pure" status-healing items during battles - ("pure" = healing only status, example : Antidote) - they reset all stat modifiers & all badge boosts - so you'll hit less than expected ----- GAME - Pokémon BLUE (not Red) OPTIONS - INTRO - FAST/OFF/SET - GYARADOS/15 15 15 15/RIGHT - Name yourself and Rival a 1-character name BROCK @ PC : Grab Repels - Pokéball : right.
