Hi. Interested in running this game as it follows my criteria o choosing games: short and easy. So, I wanted to run it and I currently use Regen as that's what a lot of people that run Sonic the Hedgehog use, but is there a faster one?

ok i actually wanted to run the new oob glitch category becuz i am a bit like shenanagans and like glitched categories so can someone make a guide or link a guide to this showing in detail how u do the new trial of the sword oob glitch? i mostly want the shield surfing method but the stasis launch against the wall method is fine. oh and i am on patch version 1.5.0 (the newest one) on an American Wii U (if that makes a difference)

wanted to run this game, and i have it on my pc. but the problem is, i got it as a Twitch Prime loot, not from Steam... so which sub category would it fall under?

I beat the game and want to run it. So, does it require a new game or is it ng+? If it's new game then how do you reset it? I am on Android btw.

Seems like a weird question and I don't know their personal lives (maybe they just bought an English 3DS), so why are they. in most cases, Japanese is faster so how much slower is Japanese than English in this game?

United StatesCybertronlaser6 years ago

Ok! So many of you probably already know this, but I just realized and this to the newer players (why are you just started playing this game, I don't know, it's amazing). I tested the settings by running the fall of a cliff and die category. Now I am not the best, so I might have it wrong, but two of the same language (except English and English) is always faster. So by that I mean if you have an American Wii U set to English and the voice acting setting in-game to German, it's always slower. Besides, any voice-acting language with English text is slower. I also set the system language (the text) to French and then tried German voice acting and the results were [a lot faster than German and English], but slower than French and French which leads us to my original point. If you have German and French, sure the voice acting might be fast but the text will be delayed. If you have anything with English text, you are basically going to be experiencing the same speed as English and English (maybe slower).

TL;DR: Don't do two different languages as they are always slower. Stay with the same voice and text language for a better chance of success at running this game.

I see many are using physical. In most cases, digital is always faster. the WR is held by physical copy. So, which one is actually faster?

I always practiced with the old route which was Bombs, Magnesis, Cryonis, and then Stasis. I have not followed this community as far as the new route as I am bad at tree launches and stuff. I preferred the old route. SO how much does this save? I heard that going to Magnesis first was faster so if you do it the normie route which is Magnet, Bomb, Cryo, and then Stasis, would that save time? Basically, I just want to know if it worth switching to the new route for GP instead of practicing the old one.

Don't listen to me. I am not even into speedrunning Pokémon a lot due to RNG. But still, a possible fun idea is adding a new half quest category. When the credits roll when you beat Lance for the first time, the timer stops. I think it would make it a lot shorter. Also, no major glitches allowed.

So, I downloaded the emulator but can't get them to open. How do I do this? I tried opening with 7zip but that made it worse.

United StatesCybertronlaser6 years ago

So, if you have the superior Android phones, you should know there are emulators. The best one being SNES9x EX+. The version is above 1.43 (It is 1.5.37) so I leave you with this question. The rules don't say you can't use mobile devices, it says you can't use SNES9x below 1.43. So theoretically, just maybe, could you possibly use Android devices to speedrun?

You guys know the Majora's Mask in close to the lake? Well, what if you were on a horse and you chose to get that if you were scared to fight those Lizalfos and Moblins in Hyrule Castle? This could also work amiibo less as there are a few horses near the Magnesis Shrine, or you could angle the rock differently to get it even faster. If you are bad at Hyrule Castle Navigation, Majora's Mask and Phantom Armor (Which is part of the route anyways) could really help. You are basically losing a few minutes to save a few minutes afterwards as you don't have to fight any enemies except the Moblin holding the Claymore. What do you think?

HI! I am practicing the 16-star route and sometimes the 0-star route. In the 0 star route, I can't get it to BLJ on that first clip. When I long jump, (which is usually never, he ground pounds instead), he keeps clipping in bounds before I get to move the stick back and mash A and thus causing failure. I am using a PS3 controller btw. Also, in the 16-star route, the wall jumps are freaking insane! I am literally having trouble wall jumping and getting the stars in Whomp's Fortress and Cool, Cool Mountain. I haven't seen any speedrun without the wall jumps so any beginner strats?

So all the categories have a column called Verified and then people select Yes or No. What does this mean?

United StatesCybertronlaser6 years ago

OK! So, I know German is the fastest language, I won't question why, just know that it is. It is also pretty slow if you do German Voice Acting and English text. If you have an American Wii U, then how do you change the text to German. The only languages I can set it to are normie languages like Spanish, French, and English. How do you set text to German as you can set the voice acting to German in the options menu, just the text. Please help. What happens when I do German and English is that German goes really fast, but then the English text is so slow and that when the German ends, the text is still going. German and German save at least a good 2 minutes off the game, so just help please.

So, more than 630 RUNS have been submitted!! We only come in at 530!! What is next? has this game decreased in popularity by speedrunners? Is Mario Odyssey actually the best game? What are your thoughts and opinions on this?

United StatesCybertronlaser7 years ago

So, clearly, this game is a lot larger than any other Pokemon game. But 6 hours?! For a speedrun?! Do you think there is going to be a faster route for this (obviously you need luck and RNG on your side)? Also, remember Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, they didn't take this long. neither did X/Y. Nintendo went overboard on this one. What do you think?

I practiced the Great Plateau route and ended up begin 10 minutes away from WR. I was somewhat distracted because my family was watching Dude Perfect, but it was best practice ruin. The thing is, I am having trouble with the boulder launch and tree launch. This run, I had to save and load to get the boulder launch right, and I climbed ladder. It's there a definite way to do it right 100% of the time? I also needs to easy on the way to Cryonis. Whay can I do to improve?!
