TID is in the Pokemon's stats screen, but you need an external tool to check DVs.

For yoloball, you buffer a + down when sending your pokemon out, then when you hear the bag open sound, you change the direction you're holding. I'd highly recommend watching a run with an input viewer or the manip video referenced in the guide to get a better idea of what I mean.

You should watch this video to learn about manips and their execution in general:

Lastly, you need a functional GBC bios (which I don't believe we're allowed to provide you)

For any other questions, it would be much faster and more convenient for you to ask in the discord linked on the side. Many more people check it and you can easily search to see if others have had similar questions. Best of luck, this game is very fun to get into! :)

It's not so much that as it is that it's much more active than here and you're much more likely to get a quick response

I'm on it, but you should definitely join the discord anyways :)

Ah yeah, there's no mobile version of gambatte, unfortunately. You'd have to do your runs on a laptop or pc. :/

The allowed emulator is available under the Resources tab here on speedrun.com! You'll also need a working ROM (which we cannot provide) and a recording software such as OBS to record gameplay. Note that you are not necessarily required to stream your runs on twitch as long as they are recorded according to the rules listed for each category.

I'd also recommend joining the Discord linked here, as there are many more people who are available and answering questions there. :)

As a general rule, please don't ask for roms here. Valid roms will display <PSR> at the top of gambatte.

The rules listed are basically a copy-paste of the glitchless ruleset with NC/NM add-ons. To your point:

Instant Text is not a glitch. This argument has been had many times. As a side note, you're getting really far into the weeds if you allow one person to make the rules for the categories as opposed to the community/its mods (yes, even if they conceptualized the category)

Skipping marowak is also not a glitch, and it's technically allowed but irrelevant since you're not allowed to buy a poke doll. It can be removed later, but yeah it doesn't make much difference.

Agreed with Zikubi, separate categories seems like the right play here.
