Contest%

Pokémon Platinum Contest% FAQ:
"What are you doing?"
- Mistakes
- Hating life
- Trying to get all Contest ribbons from all ranks and categories

 "What are you playing on?"
- I'm playing on the original (phat) Nintendo DS with a built-in capture card! It's also pink because I'm really manly

"Is this run with or without glitches?"
- It's without glitches - they're not needed for this category

"Why are you setting the time to 07:02 on 2nd January 2099?"
- I'm trying to get a specific seed for the run, so I can get a specific Piplup

"Why are you playing as the girl?"
- Picking the girl will make the male protagonist the Professor's assistant, and he talks less than the girl would.

"Why choose Piplup?"
- Piplup is used for the Beauty/Cute category in the contest

"Why are you resetting?"
- Resetting after checking Trainer ID/NPC movement: I'm trying to hit the right frame to get a specific Chimchar. Check the right side of the stream layout for the nature and stats!
- Resetting after getting Piplup: I messed something up so I didn't get the right Piplup.

"Why are you naming the character/Pokémon 1 letter?"
- The text in this game is scrolling, so 1 letter is faster to load compared to multiple characters.

"What's the video playing in the bottom left/right?"
- That's my current PB playing which I'm racing against!

"Why are you doing weird movement sometimes?"
- I'm for the RNG-manipulation

"What Pokémon are you going to use?"
- I start with Piplup/Prinplup, then I catch a Bidoof as a Cut/Rock Smash slave. Then I also manipulate a Scyther (Cool), Roselia (Smart) and Geodude (Tough) for the other categories in the contest.
