Original guide made January 17, 2017. Updated June 9, 2017 (see changelog below) . #WARNING This is less of a "guide" than it is just notes to help during the run. Nothing is written in great detail and a lot of stuff is abbreviated. If you have any questions regarding the route, ask me (@Kylovic) or consair (@Consair7) for help.

#CREDITS Original Route by Luckytyphlosion. He found all the glitchy stuff so credits to him. I only rewrote his route and added things. I also took some stuff from Consair's 16:34 wr run so some credits to him.

##Intro

• name player aaaaaaa (7 lower case a's)
• sunday/no/yes

##Early Game

• get Cyndaquil (stats don't matter)

• run away from every encounter

• mr pokemon (no need for any potions)

• rival: leer x1 then tackle

  • MUST WIN the rival fight (reset if not)

• go back to Elm's lab, get poké balls

##Bad Clone Setup

• catch dummy pokemon for cloning (any lvl 2-4 Pidgey or 2-4 Ratatta works)

• swap tackle with smokescreen (use select during encounter)

• enter cherrygrove center

##Cherrygrove Center

• clone cyndaquil:

  • 1 Cyndaquil in party. deposit it, perform a regular clone
  • move w/o mail the clone to the party. now you have 2 in party. deposit both. regular clone again
  • move w/o mail both clones to the party. now you have 4 in party. deposit 2. regular clone
  • move w/o mail one clone to the party. now you have 5 in party, 1 in box that stays in there

• begin bad clone attempts: deposit all 5, reset earlier than regular clone

• once have bad clone, deposit 3 cyndaquils, withdraw bad clone

  • the bad clone is always female, is type steel with some glitched stuff and HAS NO MOVES <-- important
  • if you get a bad clone WITH MOVES, try again cause it's useless

• timings:

  • regular clone: fade out reset, a press right after
  • bad clone: power off after YES click

• swap regular cyndaquil to 4th party slot, dummy poke should be in third, bad clone should be in first

• name boxes: BOX 1-5: ; H é [mn] 2 H é T 'd ; U g é S 'd H E ; é & 2 'v 't é ( 'd ; U é ! 2 p p p é ; 4 é d 2 [pk] [pk] [pk] 'd

  BOX 8: ; X X X E g 'm v 2

##Stupid Glitch that (almost) never works

• walk to this location, save while facing up:

• type d0 glitch grinding:

  • walk up 1, right 4 so that the player is below the first tree after the pathway and the mart door appears on screen
  • open pokemon menu, view bad clone's moves through move menu
  • continually press up until you hear bonking, can back out and re-enter if too many sprites on screen (not sure if does anything to prevent crashes)
    • soft reset on hard locks, reset on crashes
    • on bgb, if invalid opcode debugger pops up, right click bgb -> other -> reset gameboy
  • once you hear bonking, (refresh screen through select/start), walk left 1, up 5, left 1, right 2, press A to talk to red

• timing ends after the last ... textbox closes.
