-***IMPORTANT NOTE: This guide assumes you know how to beat the game normally. It is extremely difficult to follow a speedrunning guide if you haven't beaten the game or watched others beat it. If you don't know the basic steps for beating the game, such as how to reach the Elite Four, I recommend learning this before doing runs.***

 	> The manip has a 2/60 chance to produce a Nidoran that does not get in the ball with perfectly executed inputs
 	> If the Nidoran breaks out, or you're not confident in throwing the ball perfectly, Tackle it twice before throwing a ball
 	> If the manip fails, you might have gotten one of the 1/60 chances, aka IGT0s. Re-save to get a new chance
 	> Give the Nidoran a 1-character name
 	> A faster, more difficult manip can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iOx592-xhU

 	> The manip has a 1/60 chance to produce an early Paras (you should weaken this one, since you won't get the normal one)
 	> The manip has a 1/60 chance to produce a Paras on the desired tile that does not get in the ball with perfectly executed inputs
 	> If the Paras breaks out, or you're not confident in throwing the ball perfectly, Poison Sting it once before throwing a ball
 	> This manip requires a lot of practice. You can do runs without it while learning, but you'll eventually want to attempt it
 	> If the manip fails, it might have been due to RNG. You can either continue as normal and perform a backup Paras manip at the end of Mt. Moon, or re-save to get a new chance
