In simple terms, you track the IGT so you can:
- Always manipulate a perfect Nido
- Manipulate a Pidgeotto for experience instead of a slow Bug Catcher
- Always manipulate a Pidgey
- Manipulate a perfect or near-perfect fight against the last Bug Catcher in the forest
- Manipulate 0 useless forest encounters

Details:
- Win Rival 1 fight; check Pikachu stats
- IGT track through Viridian Forest
- Nido manip:
	> Hit a 3-4 frame IGT window
	> Always FFEF
	> Minimal cost
	> Ideally minimal difficulty, but prioritize stats and cost
- Extend Nido manip into Viridian Forest
	> Observe NPCs to see which IGT frame and nickname frame you hit (15+ patterns)
	> Each pattern (and possibly each Pikachu Defense value) should correspond to a Pidgeotto manip
- Pidgeotto manip:
	> Cut through post-BC1 grass on as many patterns as you can 
	> Minimal encounter chances to BC2
	> Turn 1 must be Gust into TS paralysis; turn 2 manips will vary (and might be too difficult to execute consistently)
- Fight BC2 normally
- Pidgey manip:
	> Hit a 3-4 frame IGT window
	> One for green bar, one for yellow/red bar
	> Minimal cost
	> Ideally minimal difficulty
- Extend Pidgey manip into BC3 fight
	> Hit a 3-4 frame window for the end text box
	> Manip the fight so it is always 3 turns (sometimes 2) and String Shot never hits
- Extend Pidgey/BC3 manip into encounterless final stretch of forest
	> This will likely have more branches than any other manip, and execution will be difficult
