3 | What are you trying to do? | |
4 | - | Beat Pokemon Red as fast as possible, without using glitches. |
4 | + | Beat The Gyms in Pokemon Yellow as fast as possible in reverse order, without using item underflow |
5 | ||
6 | Why? | |
7 | - | I want a break from the glitched runs for a while. |
7 | + | I'm considering submitting this to PSR marathon as it seems like an interesting run |

9 | - | What does IT testing mean? |
9 | + | |
10 | - | Some rule changes for Red Glitchless have been proposed, splitting the current category into 2 different ones, one that allows IT, and one that bans Manip and Poke Doll. As part of this, people will be testing the 2 new categories to make sure they aren't shit. |
10 | + | The only completed run (to my knowledge) is a 38:13 by entrpntr |

15 | Where can you save time? | |
16 | - | 1:52:39 RTA |
16 | + | I did a small amount of optimizing that should save a couple of seconds |
17 | ||
18 | What is your goal? | |
19 | - | My current PB has a bad early and lategame, and no silph redbar |
19 | + | Just to do runs really, see if I want to do this more |

21 | What pokemon are used in this run? | |
22 | - | 1:50, maybe 1:49 |
22 | + | Pikachu is used as the starter for obvious reasons |
23 | Pidgey is caught because we need a second pokemon for THE MANIP, and it also learns fly | |
24 | Jynx (Yes, Jynx) is used as the main battler, since it OHKOs every pokemon (Blaine's Arcanine is a range) and learns teleport, which saves a lot of movement. | |
25 | - | Squirtle is used until Brock, and is later taught surf and strength |
25 | + | |
26 | - | Nidoran-m is used as the main battler after Brock, as he destroys the rest of the game |
26 | + | Is Jynx really the fastest Pokemon, or are you just using it for the meme? |
27 | - | Pidgey/Spearow is used as a fly slave |
27 | + | It's the fastest Pokemon I've looked at, all others either don't learn teleport, which loses all the time we'd save from a shorter cry and a faster LG, or in the 1 case that does learn teleport (Venomoth), we have to evolve a venonat, which involves either a reset to get out of battle so we can candy before Giovanni, or a very slow Giovanni fight since venonat sucks, neither of which seem very fast. |
28 | - | Paras is used as a dig/cut slave |
28 | + | |
29 | Does this run use any RNG manipulation? | |
30 | Yes. I manipulate no forest encounters, then a pidgeotto deathfly, then THE MANIP |
