Pokémon Gold Alt Main Meganium

Pokemon Gold Alt main Meganium Route

TODO:	Generally cleaning everything up
	Radio section after Center PP route doesn't work as written and needs to be fixed
	double checking ranges esp E4 to end (+ Adding some important defensive ranges)
	Adding FCCD route (done, just needs to be added, better than expected)

Extra info for FCCD:	https://pastebin.com/6QXkhwAq

Now compatible with FECF and FDCE. (they are very similar, biggest difference is Will fight and Early Erika)

Chiko Manip Video:	https://youtu.be/_qJjWJwfoSg
Seentret Manip video*:	https://youtu.be/Azo8MbVUR0M	Hasn't been tested on most IGT frames yet

Alternate chiko manip (HP Ground):	https://youtu.be/vtLOXn2fVg8
Probably more optimal, but the notes that are linked are kinda messy.

Falkner Split

Perform the Manips (LID,Chiko)
My Current Manip offstet:	LID		28359
				Chiko		10693
				R29/sentret	10944


Always leave the lab on the left (it's faster and makes R29 manip possible)
Can take berry off, if you are confirming the stats.
Keeping the berry Held improves rival 1 a bit
If you hold the berry you can faint a caterpie or L2 Pidgey if you see one on the way to rival

Rival1:		4-5 Tackle (4 Tackle is 1 in 2mio xdd)
		If turn 1 Leer, can go for Growl for safety (or just don't miss/get crit)

You want to get 58+ Exp before ABE.
Ideally you get a L3/4 Caterpie on the way to rival and Metapod/Bellsprout on R31
Might even be worth to just skip Encounters until after Don
Getting 79+ Exp gives you L9 for Nico (100% 2 hits)

Sentret catch is required for this route!!! (note the breakouts)

Mikey:		Pidgey:	2-3 Tackle
		Rat:	3-4 Tackle	Expect to miss These ranges

Don:		@L7	3 Tackle (99.99%)
		@L8	RL+Tackle

(Bitterberry) Not sure if bitterberry is actually useful enough, but it's good safety
If you got lees than 58 exp, grind for Encounters before getting to violet !!!


Go to sprout Tower
Nico:		2-3 Tackle 56.61% on L8
