PB video for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Cr3N9Saqao. May be more useful than the paste in some places, especially after Giovanni, where I begin limiting the amount of detail. Credit to krazyd4n for several seconds of improvements to the route I used in PB. I've included these improvements in the paste. ~=~=~=~=~ Intro - TID Manip: (Fastest intro, oakreset, Fastest intro w/1 backout, oakreset, Fastest intro) - yellow_gfskip_intro0_title_newgame_oakreset - _gfskip_intro0_title_backout_title_newgame_oakreset - _gfskip_intro0_title_newgame: 0xC5E6 (50662) ; TID manip puts HM02 and TM30 in Pewter glitch mart - Choose 1 char player name ("A") - Rival name: BLUE (pre-set) - Set options in-game to Fast/Off/Set (fast options works, but Earphone3 xux) - Don't nickname Pikachu Rival 1 - Thundershock x3-5 (winning or losing doesn't matter) Parcel Quest - Remember to hold B to walk through Pikachu - Run from all encounters - Go behind Oak when delivering parcel Viridian Mart - Buy Poke Ball x5-8 (you need at least $1400, and 1+ balls after catching Pidgey) Backtrack to Route 1 to catch a Pidgey (run from Rattatas) - NOTE: Corner bonk between the ledge and Pikachu for style points - Immediately chuck balls at L2-L4 Pidgeys - Thundershock L5-L7 Pidgeys before catching - Give Pidgey a 1 char nickname ("A") Viridian Center - Deposit Pikachu, then heal to set warp point - Watch Old Man catching tutorial, then head to Route 2 Forest Manip - Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7nsKFPs190 - End of manip is different from YNSC ("A" vs "ASH" affects the manip after picking up Potion) Deathfly Manip - Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoPt1pxHPTo - Same as YNSC THE Manip - Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DonALfmjZOk - Same as YNSC; backup options for wrong NPC movement without needing to re-save: - UP/RIGHT = U11, R2, U3 (A @ U8/U10/R1) - DOWN/LEFT = U13, R2, U1 (A @ U1/U9/R1) [[ STANDARD = U13, R2, U1 (A @ U8/U10/R1) ]] Forest Mart - Buy: - Max Repel x1 - Bicycle x23 - Bicycle x91 - 6F x7 - Surfboard x1 - Master Ball x99 - TMTRAINER x1 Route 2 - Swap Poke Ball with bottom Bicycle, get on Bike - Bike to jack tile (http://extratricky.com/pokeworld/rb/1#60,142) and turn to face left (moving left one tile is fine) - Pretend to use TMTRAINER, skip over boulders, flash party ("unjack") - Pick up HP Up (skip jingle if not slow) - Go through gate and WALK to next jack tile (http://extratricky.com/pokeworld/rb/1#68,113 -- this jack softlocks if on bike) - Pretend to use TMTRAINER, go up 1 tile and buffer menu (internal direction changes to UP if buffered) - Swap HP Up with Potion - Use HP Up but backout on party screen ("medicine re-jack") - Bike past Diglett's Cave to other side of r2, unjack - Grind for an encounter in grass - Use 6F, open menu, flash party, close menu, bike to Pokemon Center and heal - Walk to tile (http://extratricky.com/pokeworld/rb/1#57,78) and flash items, continue walking to Pewter Mart Pewter Mart - Sell: - TMTRAINER x2 - Master Ball x3 - Buy: - Jack x1 - Ether x99 - HM02 x1 (with TM30 on bottom of screen, which ensures cost is $1000) - TM30 x2 - Close glitched mart, then re-open unglitched mart - Buy: - Burn Heal x99 - Escape Rope x2 - Awakening x1 - Antidote x99 - Antidote x99 - Antidote x1 Jynx/BTW - Walk to Museum, go upstairs to Jynx tile - Pretend to use TMTRAINER, catch Jynx with Master Ball, nickname 1 char ("J") - Flash party (to get out of jack state), swap Jynx and Pidgey - Exit museum and head to Brock fan jack tile (http://extratricky.com/pokeworld/rb/1#72,66) - Use Burn Heal to heal Jynx's status, swap Jack with Poke Ball, use Jack - Go to tile above Brock fan, talk to him without unjacking (!) - Brock thru Walls to Viridian Gym (fastest to go straight down, then left at the end) > NOTE: This particular BTW method relies on an 0F23 setup in items. - Specifically, starting from an odd slot, the order must be: [item] x15 | HP Up x1 | Giovanni - IP, BZ, IP, IP, IP Before exiting gym - Use Max Repel - Pick up Revive (~0.2s faster than combining Max Repel and Bike menus and getting TM38 from Blaine) After exiting gym - Bike to Pallet - Use Surfboard and surf to Cinnabar Blaine - BZ, BZ, BZ+IP - NOTE: Don't Ether during fight if out of Blizzards, since that causes instant victory (b&).
