•About Skipping Mansion Candy
>Skip strats, assuming top-end (crit golbat + redbar lance/champ), can save ~14s over candy strats in exchange for ~15% additional risk (mainly sky attack) and significantly lowers odds of good champ HP after lance hydro pump
>Strat: C | Standard HP entering Lance: 142 | HP Probability Distribution after Hydro Pump:
     -Sketchy (14-15): p=4.813%
     -Somewhat Sketchy (16-17): p=9.421%
     -Perfect (18-30): p=65.876%
     -Redbar Lost on Champ Rhydon (31-33): p=17.109%
     -Redbar Lost on Lance Aerodactyl (34): p=2.780%
>Strat: S | Standard HP entering Lance: 143 | HP Probability Distribution after Hydro Pump:
     -Sketchy (15-18): p=14.235%
     -T1 xSpd (19-20): p=9.310% (good: p=4.624%, bad: p=4.686%)
     -Perfect (21-27): p=34.478%
     -Redbar Lost on Champ Gyarados (28-30): p=16.344%
     -Redbar Lost on Champ Pidgeot (31-32): p=11.480%
     -Redbar Lost on Lance 1st Dragonair (33-35): p=14.154%
>It is not unlikely for skip strats to barely save time or even lose time over candy strats
>It is recommended that you consider skip strats if your mid-game pace suggests yolo lorelei may be needed, subsequently opening up the opportunity to yolo agatha properly (without candying) and accepting increased odds of needing to yolo champ to maintain redbar

•Miscellaneous Notes
