Hello everyone:

Only Raphael Category rules: Start: When you gain control of the Turtle Change inmediatly to Raph, and never change again of Turtle. Continues not allowed, because you will use other turtle to die, so this category is not legitimate if you use continue, be careful with that. Ends: On the last hit to Shredder.

I just beated the Raphael category, and as it's reputation is not easy et all, and I don't mean because of the famous or infamous poor range of Raphael, the no boost of Raphael when has below the 50% of health or the no down attack of Rapha, or the no speed as Mike. It is so difficult because I was to be extra careful with the shitty weapon drop everywhere beyond Area 3: Building 4, the moment I got my scrolls.

Things I needed for beat the game: 1.- Random start button (I don't care where is Technodrome, you are not guaranteed to get that far, and you can stress by that, just enjoy). 2.- Try to have always the 100% health of Raphael all the time, so got the pizza of shame, pizza of humillation and the pizza of lies that are in the normal road-route. 3.- Swim very careful and wait for all the current electrics, also be careful with the bizarre spinning thing, and the most important thing is that after the 4th bomb, you need to swim extra careful to receive 2 or maxium 3 hits of the coral. 4.- Be careful in Area 3: Building 2, getting the slice pizza and going up with the glitch for the missiles, hope for a weapn drop to kill some fire freaks or robos mainly. 5.- Go to my classic and signature Area 3: Building 4 for the scrolls, you need to get five times the scroll to get the 99 maxium scroll, also there is a full pizza that you can get at the end of that to be at 100%. The moment you gain your first scrolls begins the good part of this run, you need to be extra careful with every enemy and every hazard in the game, because your worst enemy will be the shitty weapon drop. So use always your scrolls with the most powerful and randoms enemys as: Fire Freak, Boomerang guys, and if you see something that could get you out of the way, or a danger of the possibly weapon drop. 6.- Beat your Mecha Turtle with 7 hits of the scrolls, the next level beat the hamburguer lasers and the foot bandits with scrolls, but don't go extremely fast, because you know what happens. (shitty weapon drop). 7.- Take the normal route, be extra careful by not receiving damage of Raph, kill boomerang guys with scroll, also Beetles in case. Go top route in the first difficult spikes level and be careful of the weapon drop all the time. 8.- Take Area 4: Level 12 (the one with a lot of laser alarms), kill that alarms with your scrolls, because you don't need to rescue a turtle, also is faster, easier, has a full pizza and don't have the danger of the lava room (lava room will give you lot of damage, kill you with the lava, give you a shitty weapon drop, all include, and you can kill Big mousser without scrolls, just pause it, and give him 2 hits, if you need more scrolls there plenty in Area 5: Building 1). 9.- To kill big mousser, just pause it the moment he opens the mouth, do a side hit, with out getting damage, just give him 2 hits and be patient. Also because you have wasted a lot of time compared to other categorys, when you kill Big mousser you can go all to the left, to have the long walk just for fun. 10.- Go to cave 1, go to cave 2 and hope there is the technodrome, in my run it was in cave 2 thankfully. But any emergency go for the pizza of shame in the Area 5: building 2, always with the careful of the weapon drop, never forget that happens what it happens please. 11.- To kill technodrome, just put your turtle all to the left, spam the scrolls exactly in the fork, then in the 2 cannons at the same time to the Foot soldier launcher. When Technodrome Guardian has no weapons left, just go to his coveyor wheels, wait for the eye open, and attack him from behind, just one hit at the time, don't get hit and be patient, is easy and enjoyable. 12.- Finally area 6. Use your scrolls for the first enemys, then avoid the spinning things by ducking, if your Raph is in perfect health don't fo for the first pizza of lies, instead proceed to go top route, kill the Mecha kangarros with 2 hits, and the be very careful because of your enemy count in this level the weapon drop is near. Go for the scrolls, then go down, kill the mecha cangaroo the same, go down, go left and get the full pizza, then proceed normal route, beware the jetpacks, just duck and go for the turtle power, avoid by any means the weapon drop and arrieve to the final corridor. Be sure to have the good way with the jetpacks, if the go lower, just send them 2 scrolls and keep going, go all the way, hope for no weapon drop, because Raph can't kill the spinning things, neither can do damage ducking to the final jetpack subboss. 13.- Finally with Shredder, just give him the awesome 18 hits, with no scrolls, and celebrate with a pizza an upload your run to this forum. My time was easily more than an hour, maybe somebody could pass it in less time, but I know it won't be in the first attepmt and will have a really hard time. So the PB can be easily imrpove by somebody brave enough, but remember this is an unnoficial category and a undersused, neverused category, so you won't play this often, just once in your lifetime maybe, so enjoy the run, and the objetive is to beat the category, remember that.

Maybe this could be the 4th category if you like it, if it won't be a official category, you could still play it, and post in this thread your run, with your timer and your comments.

Enjoy, and have a fun time.

Here it is the full and complete run of the only Raphael category, and it is also a new PB and WR of 33:26.

Please see it complete all the run, you will enjoy it, guaranteed, also you can do your own only Raphael category run and put it here in the forum, just enjoy the game and have fun. Is really realaxing this run, a break from the infinite any% category. And also Don needs a little vacation or break some time, so enjoy it and thanks all for your support as always.

We've gone too far down the turtle-hole boys! Good work everyone, I need to get on my Raph game now.

Of all the proposed categories, I believe Raph Only deserves to be official due to the challenge involved using the statistically worst turtle available. Would you guys want it to be an official category or should we leave it be a meme run?

I see your "Boom!" and raise you a "Bam!"

I don't got Boom and hope to have a BAM soon. I got a new PB 26 minutes. Still in the 4th place. But just for now. I will try to go for the 2nd place when I can. I had good paces, etc. But no cave one in this category the last runs. So put my new PB in the official document, thanks man.

I beat the 3rd place with a 24 minutes

Why this is not the third official category? Is little bit annoying but is the third category with more players.

New PB closer to the 2nd place. It was 22m43s

Hope It can be done. Thanks for the cave 1 this time game.

Dedicate this run to Arcus, Skunky and the good viewers.

YES YES YES and a million of YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mega hype new WR 21m30s

I dedicate this run to my best friend in the world Skunky 48. This goes for you men, you are the best Nintendo player in the world.

Come on, let's go. The adventure of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is concluded for all times.
