Manipless Red Strats

NOTE: All these strats assume no chance for Thunderbolt. If he can Thunderbolt, you can't ever predict his moves, so a perfect setup isn't achievable. So do general hope to live and land a GI strats.

Pikachu has 186 HP
Will Heal at 45 or Below. Thus, 141 Recoil is too much. So don't do over 140 with the first two hits. 140 is OK.

Aim to do ~113-140 instead, and then have it kill Snorlax from full.

A half HP Gyarados & 2 Snorlax kills generally gets there
(Snorlax matters more)
2 Snorlax + Kenya + Quilava always gets there.
L31 Kenya + Max Recoil Gyarados (237+) + Max Recoil HP Snorlax (234+) gets there.

Snorlax has 220 - 235 HP. This is 73 - 78 Recoil.
Gyarados has 216 - 238 HP. This is 72 - 79 Recoil
At Half, this mean 108 - 119 HP. This is 36 - 39 HP.
L31 Kenya has 87 HP, therefore 29 recoil (28 if L30, 27 if L29)
Quilava has 55 - 51 HP. This is 18 - 20 Recoil.
Sentret has 13 - 16 HP. This is 4 - 5 Recoil.


Gyarados usually comes in at ~80% after Blue.

So, math whether Gyarados + Snorlax will put to heal. E.g. Gyarados at 180 HP is 60, and Snorlax at 230 HP is 76. 60 + 76 = 136, does not put to heal.

Also math whether half Gyarados + 2 Snorlax will kill to be sure.

Almost never want to heal Gyarados after Blue, but if somehow below half you may want to Super Potion.

If Snorlax has bad Defense, AND Current Gyarados HP + Snorlax will put to heal AND Gyarados + Snorlax + Kenya will kill, then heal Gyarados to full.

----------

If 100% VT (Great Defense):

If god HP on both + L31+ Kenya:
Lead Snorlax, switch to Gyarados
Send out Snorlax, switch to Kenya
Send out Snorlax, Max Revive Gyarados. Die, get Blastoise.

---

Gyarados + Snorlax won't put to heal HP:

---

Gyarados + Snorlax will put to heal HP:

Lead Snorlax, switch to Kenya.
Send out Snorlax, switch to Quilava.
Send out Snorlax, revive a slave.
Send out slave, Max Revive Snorlax.
Send out Snorlax, die, get Blastoise.

OR

Lead Snorlax, switch to Gyarados
