Pokemon Heart Gold FAQ

      Pokemon Heart Gold FAQ

Q: What are you playing on, it is emulator?
A: No, I play on a 3DS using software purchased from 3dscapture.com

Q: Why do you choose Cyndaquil?
A: Because the Cyndaquil evolution family is the best for the speedrun, without it, my time would not be nearly as fast.

Q: Do you really need to use Cyndaquil specifically, couldn't you use some other Pokemon?
A: Yes. Yes I do. Otherwise I will not challenge my World Record.

Q: But don’t you use Totodile in Gold?
A: Yes, but in the remakes Cyndaquil is better. The main two reasons for this are that Sprout Tower is forced, and fighting a lot of Bellsprouts puts it in a better position, and that the TMs at Goldenrod are changed, and you get Fire Blast there before the 3rd badge.

Q: Why did you keep resetting after getting Cyndaquil?
A: If it looks like there is no reason, it's generally because my stats were bad. I need to have great IVs in attack and special attack otherwise I can not complete the run fast enough

Q: What stats are good and what stats are bad?
A: I check my stats as soon as I can, because it takes to long to wait until I level up. At level 5 I will reset unless my attack is 11, my special attack is 12, and my speed is 11 (or more)

Q: About what are the chances of getting a Cyndaquil with stats you will keep?
A: I will keep about 1 in 8 Cyndaquils.

Q: What other pokemon do you catch in this run?
A: I catch a Sentret, and Mewtwo for Red.

Q: What is the current World Record?
A: The World Record is 4:13 game time, 4:17:41 real time

Q: Why do you use Frame 16?
A: Because it's sexy :3

Q: Why do you play as the girl?
A: The counterpart does the catching tutorial, and the male does it faster, so it’s faster to choose the female for yourself

Q: Why do you name yourself and Cyndaquil 'I'?
A: Because it's faster to name them one character for text purposes, and the letter 'I' gives a nice spin as if the game was self-narrating

Q: I just heard you orgasming like crazy and I couldn't see why...are you crazy?
A: There are several trainers in this game that spin like crazy. It's either because one caught me, or one didn't >_>

Q: Why do you use ingame time and not real time?
A: Because http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaMGf1V3MMM

Q: Are there glitches in this run?
A: No, this is a glitchless run.

Q: Isn't this a luck based run?
A: Yes, there is luck involved. Yes, I am still running it. I love pokemon and will run it regardless ^_^
