- #########################################################
- CHANGELOG at the bottom
- START :
- Put the time at 10:00 AM or 5:36PM
- - 10:00AM : save RTA time
- - 5:36PM : allows catching an extra cutslave in Ilex Forest
- Name yourself a 1-character name (saves text-display time)
- NEW BARK TOWN :
- Go downstairs, answer Mom's textboxes as follows :
- - Day : Sunday (allows getting TM27 Return in Goldenrod), then "Yes"
- - DST : "NO", then "Yes" (saves 4 frames)
- - Pokégear : "YES"
- Reach the lab (top left building)
- Go through Prof Elm's dialogue, then choose Totodile (middle Pokéball)
- Rename Totodile a 1-character name
- - Check its sex (top-left part) : if it's a Female, reset. (Female Totodiles have a very low Attack in Gen 2)
- After the speech, check Totodile's stats :
- - ATK : 11 = reset
- 12+ = okay
- - SPC : 9/ 9 = only if 13 Atk (referred as Special-less)
- 9/10 = only if 16 Atk @L7 (Bad Special)
- 10/10 = only if 14 Atk @L6 (Average Special)
- 10/11 = good (Good Special)
- You can also check your Defense and Speed to know whether you'll get some more annoyances :
- - DEF : 11 = slight annoyances
- 12 = good
- - SPD : 9 = slight annoyances and check to be prepared for some potential troll parts
- 10 = good (some very high Speed later can help you a bit in various places)
- If the stats are okay, take Totodiles Berry off (can keep it for first runs/attempts) :
- - Select Totodile, then "Item", then "Take".
- Exit the lab, and exit the city west
- ROUTE 29 :
- At this stage, any encounter you get can be considered an annoyance
- However, you can kill 1-2 encounters at certain conditions :
- - kill any encounter :
- > you need 15 extra exp for the safe strat (L13 before Union Cave)
- > can be done later on Route 32
- > gives you an extra level for a later fight against a L4 Rattata
- - kill 2 L3+ encounters :
- > useful if 11 Def and/or 9 Speed @L5. Can always be done for first runs
- > gives an extra level up to Falkner (1st Gym Leader), plus all the benefits above
- Rush through Route 29 and Cherrygrove City (exit north)
