PRE-ROUTING - Save for the following fights: > Spearow > Falkner > Benny/Bugsy > Whitney - Need 18 exp. before Violet to get L11 Pidgeotto (basically mandatory with 15 Speed, otherwise maybe skippable) - Early Potions: > Before Spearow (plus Berry) > Before Pidgeys > Before Falkner (plus Berry) - Violet Mart (after Spearow): Buy 6 Attacks and 2 X Speeds; also sell Poke Balls to buy a Potion if needed - Azalea Mart: Buy 4 Potions, 3 Repels and 3 Antidotes - Skip X Speed on Falkner with 0-7 or 15 DV - Skip X Speed on Rival 2 with 8-15 DV - Fight these optionals: Daniel, Russell, Slowpoke Pokemaniac, Anthony - Bugsy: Lead Mud-Slap to lower String Shot chance? Then X Attack x3 (and maybe X Speed, and if you don't get String Shot, you can be half HP for Scyther). Can equip Berry and not need X Speed, but this is quite slow - Whitney: X Speed if you have one, Berry if not - Goldenrod Mart: > 3F: Sell both TMs; Buy 1 X Speed (Morty), 8 X Attacks and 2 X Specials (Pryce, Jasmine) > 2F: Buy 5 Escape Ropes, 3 Repels, 2 Full Heals and 1 Poke Doll - Kill Sudowoodo (RL+RL) - Morty: Kenya strats (split exp.) - Candy to 31 in Lighthouse if spinnerless, candy to 32 after Hitmons if 1+ spinner > Skip Body Slam - Jasmine: X Attack + X Special (keep Miracle Seed) - Get 1-2 candies for Rocket section? The ranges are bad otherwise > Can candy from 34 to 35 for Venonats? - Double deposit after Koffing/Weezing Executive - Teach Return over Mud-Slap after Rival 4? Can flinch the following pokes until you get EQ: > Muk (?) > Muk > Weezing (?) > Golbat > Arbok > Vileplume > Dragonair > Kingdra > Dragonair > Rapidash - Get Ice Path Protein - Koga: 2 X Attacks instead of 3 - Karen: 2 X Attacks, but hit Umbreon after the first one (otherwise Vileplume lives) - Kanto order: Probably keep the same MOVESET: - Tackle/Growl/Razor Leaf/Reflect - Tackle/Mud-Slap/Razor Leaf/Reflect - Headbutt/Mud-Slap/Razor Leaf/Reflect - Headbutt/Mud-Slap/Razor Leaf/Strength - Headbutt/Return/Razor Leaf/Strength - Earthquake/Return/Razor Leaf/Strength DISCARDED - Get Cut for Bugsy? Could use one fewer X Attack on Bugsy, and thus X Attack x2 Falkner - Shopping before Whitney... loses a lot of time (can't afford Poke Doll), and no movement time save because you need to do early underground first > (Discarded) Maybe buy only 2 Escape Ropes? Saves $1650 so you can buy Poke Doll, plus X Special for Whitney
