Ruby is more preferred here because Team Magma is slightly faster, and you're gonna be level 100 anyway for the most of the run
This route assumes you have basic knowledge about Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire Speedruns, and even JPN since It has extra trainers such as mandatory Magma Grunt at hideout
Important Keywords for items- ふしぎなアメ (Rare Candy), キズぐすり (Potion), いいキズぐすり, ハーバーメール (Harbour Mail), (Super Potion), プラスパワー (X-Attack), むしよけスプレー (Repel), シルバースプレー (Super Repel), スペシャルアップ (X Special Attack)
The route is similar to Any% Glitchless route, but with few differences along with Late Brawly and different language, Main objective is to get a manipped zigzagoon, then any 2 more pokes or zigs to fill up the team, and A Fly friend poke (wingull) or tailow in rare cases Preferably wingull since it makes the 1st gym grunt fight faster! Tailow works here as well if you fail on getting a Wingull, but Wingull here is much better! And Lastly an Abra, the notes for the Abra manips are given as well!
Thanks to Epicdudeguy for originally routing it, as well as wingull and abra manips! and BluMagma7 for providing offsets for zigzagoon manip for flowtimer

Rest of the Route goes as per Any% route, You dont need to fight ANY optional trainers, so best to avoid them
Take Strength after exiting Meteor Falls
(You'll need 4 X Attacks and 1 X Special) other ranges vary
FAQ Notes-
If you hit the right Mudkip, you shouldn't really have a problem hitting the ranges!
Also any other plus attack nature with not too bad SpA, Speed Mudkip works out too, but the usual Naughty Manipped Mudkip would be ideal
Move set goes as Teaching Mud shot over Growl, Strength over Mud Slap, Surf over Tackle/Mud Shot, Waterfall over Mud shot/Tackle
Timing Ends after THE END appears after credits, as that's how JPN timing ends in Pokemon speedruns!
