(BIG NOTE: This category has more RNG since it doesn't use Passwords. The Placement of Pokemon, what pokemon is it is, the power of the pokemon, the moves it has, its behavior, and what pokemon drop is all RNG. Also whether the pokemon has a Special Trait, or is Shiny is RNG.)

(ANOTHER BIG NOTE: There are ways to know whether a pokemon is going to drop or not. If you stun a pokemon and there are stars around it, if you kill it in time it will always drop (Example of this: http://bombch.us/CJib ). All shiny's will drop 100% of the time and all will have a Special Trait. Sometimes you will notice a pokemon that has a "sparkly tint" around the model (you will see little stars) this also means that it will always drop, so look out for those pokemon too (Example of this: http://bombch.us/CJiY ).

(Special Trait: Pokemon can drop with this games version of "Natures" called "Special Traits". These Special Traits give the pokemon abilities it wouldnt have if it was an ordinary pokemon, here is a list of all the Traits and their advantages. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special_Traits You are going to want Speedy out of all of these because you guessed it, it is fast. So if you see a special trait pokemon drop pick it up because it could be Speedy. Difference between Special Trait Pokemon and Normal Pokemon: Special Trait http://bombch.us/CJib Normal http://bombch.us/CJiY )

Rank C

Once you get to the battle royale with Rattata, you want to die ASAP, so don't attack anything. You want to go in front of the pokemon that are the most powerful and get hit by their moves So Wigglytuff, Butterfree, and Parasect are the 3 you want to look for first If neither of those are in sight, go towards a Pikachu If none of those 4 show up or are close to you, just go to whatever is closest and die ASAP.

After that there will be 4 text boxes (mash through those) and head to Silent Forest (only stage available)

Go through the stage and dodge the pokemon to the best of your abilities. There are text boxes in each of the rooms because this is the tutorial level, you are able to tackle and move up a little further than intended to if you time your tackle correctly with the text box spawning, this doesnt save that much time just a neat little time saver. The only pokemon you will need to attack is Pikachu which is in the 2nd room Collect the Pikachu but stay as Rattata for now. You may need to tackle some pokemon depending if you are about to get hit by them or not, but just try to get to each trampoline ASAP. Right beforeyou enter the Boss Fight (Ivysaur) switch from Rattata to Pikachu Fight Ivysaur and go towards the trampoline

(Note: You dont have to worry about getting the coins that drop from pokemon)

(Another Note: After Silent Forest you will be able to skip the animation of the bosses for each stage, all the trampoline animations, speed up the wind up animation of any pokemon you select to use, and scroll through all the pokemon you collected at the end of the fight instead of mashing through each one)

After completing Silent Forest, stay as Pikachu and go into Windy Prairie Now you want to get a pokemon that has Quick Attack, but also will be useful throughout Rank C So as Pikachu kill as many Spearows, Fearows, Doduos, and Dodrios as you can until one of them is 70+ Power and it has Quick Attack. (Persian is also good to use if you get the boss drop) If you get a good power pokemon and it doesn't have Quick Attack, Peck and Fury Attack are also good to have So you don't have to go out of your way at that point if you get (For Example) A Power 79 Spearow with Peck, because though it doesnt have Quick Attack it has a good attack for fighting. If you get a Fearow or ESPECIALLY a Dodrio use them over Spearow and Doduo. Their walking speed is very good and usully have a good power and move.

(Note: If ANY boss in the run drops, PICK IT UP (except Ivysaur, fuk dat kid)

After Windy Prarie you will go to the Fiery Furnace This stages doesn't have any pokemon you are going to want, so you can just go through the stage as fast as possible, don't try to pick anything up. If Charmeleon drops pick it up

After completing the Fiery Furnace, you will enter the Rocky Cave Instead of trying to go through the stage as fast as possible you will want to kill EVERYTHING IN SIGHT The reason for this is because in order to unlock the Battle Royale in Rank C you need a 100 Power pokemon or higher. And the more stages you complete the stronger the pokemon in that Rank can become. So after beating Fiery Furnace you would have beaten 3 stages and going into your fourth. After 3 stages (and sometimes with really good RNG in the third stage) the power of pokemon is just good enough to get you the power you need for each rank. And we want to go into the Stage that has the best pokemon for fighting and have the best chances for being high powers. Again you want to kill everything so you can get the power ASAP but here are some of the better pokemon/moves to get in Rank C Rocky Cave Machop: Karate Chop (best pokemon to get) Clefairy: Double Slap: (good) Machop : Low Kick (decent) Clefairy: Pound (decent) Geodude: Magnitude (decent)

Enter Rank C Battle Royale You have 3 lives to complete the battle royale, but you can not switch out pokemon in the middle of the battle, once you select a pokemon you are locked in until you win or die with that pokemon, so be smart of what pokemon you pick by looking at the moves they have and the power of the pokemon. After completing the Battle Royale go to the Rank B tramopline

Rank B

Enter Windy Prairie as whatever your strongest pokemon is (unless it is geodude than enter with whatever is close the it) You are going to want to kill ONLY Pidgeys and Pidgeottos because you want to get a Quick Attack pokemon for Rank B. Once you have a 120-130+ Pidgey/Pidgeotto switch into that pokemon. If you don't get a quick attack pokemon even after the Pidgeot fight, (Pick up Pidgeot if it drops) use whatever pokemon that has the best power and decent move

Enter Fiery Furnace and go through it as fast as possible. If you dont have good pokemon for speed, picking up a Voltorb or Ponyta would be helpful because they both have good walking speed and can have good moves.

Enter Eternal Tower and go through it as fast as possible. It is always good to get a Kadabra because it has really fast walking speed and Confusion is a really good move in this game. Also Rank B is the Rank "Early Power Drop" occurs the most. Early Power Drop is getting the power you need for the battle royale in the rank you are in, in the 3rd stage you enter instead of the 4th stage. It is the best RNG and you can get it on pokemon throughout the stage but the pokemon that will most likely be (in this case) 200 power is Electabuzz, the boss of Eternal Tower Rank B. So This is always a possibility, but dont go out of your way to kill everything.

If you do not get the early power drop you will then go into Fiery Furnace again and kill everything until you get a 200 power. Here are spme of the better pokemon/moves to get in Rank B Fiery Furnace Ponyta: Ember (Good) Growlithe: Ember (Good) Growlithe: Bite (decent) Voltorb: Spark (good) Voltob: Rollout (decent)

Enter Rank B Battle Royale You have 3 lives to complete the battle royale, but you can not switch out pokemon in the middle of the battle, once you select a pokemon you are locked in until you win or die with that pokemon, so be smart of what pokemon you pick by looking at the moves they have and the power of the pokemon. The bosses come out differently in Rank B than in Rank C, So you have to kill Golem, Alakazam, or Gengar in order to spawn Machamp After completing the Battle Royale go to the Rank A tramopline

Rank A

Enter Windy Prairie as whatever your strongest pokemon is. You are going to want to kill ONLY Pidgeottos and Persians because you want to get a Quick Attack pokemon for Rank A. Persian doesnt have Quick Attack but it has good attacks and has fast walking speed, so it is a good alternitive to have if you dont get Quick Attack or need another pokemon for battling. If you don't get a quick attack pokemon even after the Aerodactyl fight, (Pick up Aerodactyl if it drops) use whatever pokemon that has the best power and decent move. (If Aerodactyl drops use him!)

Enter Fiery Furnace and go through it as fast as possible. Everything in this stage arent really good, Ninetales and Charmeleon are alright, but dont go out of your way to get them. If Charizard drops pick him up and use it.

(Note: Use your best judgement on Aerodactyl and Charizard if they drop, if you get both of them to drop Aerodactyl is faster but also look at the powers and moves of both of them because they are both fast.)

Enter Eternal Tower and go through it as fast as possible. It is always good to get a Kadabra because it has really fast walking speed and Confusion is a really good move in this game. Other than that just try to get through the stage as fast as possible.

Enter Rocky Cave and kill everything until you get a power 400 (you dont have to kill slowpoke), Here are some of the better pokemon/moves to get in Rocky Cave Rank A Machoke: Karate Chop (great) Clefable: Wake-Up Slap (good) Machoke: Low Kick (decent) Clefable: Double Slap (decent) Slowbro: Headbutt, Confusion (decent) Graveler: Magnitude, Rollout (decent)

Enter Rank A Battle Royale You have 3 lives to complete the battle royale, but you can not switch out pokemon in the middle of the battle, once you select a pokemon you are locked in until you win or die with that pokemon, so be smart of what pokemon you pick by looking at the moves they have and the power of the pokemon. After completing the Battle Royale go to the Rank S tramopline

Rank S

Enter Windy Prairie, Getting a Dodrio or Fearow is your goal. They both are good for walking speed and can have agility which is the equivalent of having a speedy pokemon, so definitely pick those up. Aerodactyl is also a good pick up if it drops!

Enter Fiery Furnace, the power gap from A to S is kinda large, so the pokemon in Fiery Furnace are very good and powerful. I would recommend getting a Charizard/Rapidash or two. They are both good at battling and have good walking speed. Try not to go too far out of your way to get some pokemon but make sure you get a few, S Rank is difficult. (I will say if anything drops I would pick it up if it isnt too far out of the way to be safe)

Enter Eternal Tower and go through it as fast as possible. It is always good to get an Alakazam because it has really fast walking speed and Confusion is a really good move in this game. Nidoking is decent but other than that just try to get through the stage as fast as possible.

Enter Fiery Furnace and kill everything until you get a power of 600. Here are some better pokemon to get in Fiery Furnace Rank S. All these pokemon can have a large variety of moves, here are some of those moves Charizard: Dragon Claw, Shadow Claw, Air Slash, Fire Fang, Ember Rapidash: Poison Jab, Ember, Mega Horn Arcanine: Fire Fang, Ember Electrode: Thundershock, Spark, Rollout

Before you enter the Battle Royale! If you aren't confident in the pokemon you have for the final Battle Royale, you can go and buy a pokemon. This is at the bottom left in the red box, just go to it and mash. All the coins you have gotten from the previous battle royales give you enough to buy 1 pokemon. The pokemon and its moves are all RNG, so it can be a Zapdos or it can be a Ditto, but its a good last chance to get a good pokemon for battling.

When you are ready enter the Battle Royale and be careful! You have 3 lives to complete the battle royale, but you can not switch out pokemon in the middle of the battle, once you select a pokemon you are locked in until you win or die with that pokemon, so be smart of what pokemon you pick by looking at the moves they have and the power of the pokemon. You have to kill one of the legendary birds in order to spawn Mewtwo (the FINAL boss). Once you kill Mewtwo you still have to mash through some cutscenes.

Timing ends once you collect the coin after beating S Rank Battle Royal
