| 3 | Q: What are you playing on, it is emulator? | |
| 4 | A: No, I'm playing on a DS with a capture board from 3dscapture.com/ds | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | Q: What is the current World Record? | |
| 7 | A: http://www.speedrun.com/pmdredblue | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | Q: Why do you choose Skitty? | |
| 10 | A: Skitty is fucking great. Tail Whip is a great Link move, Double Slap is fucking OP for late game, an Attract/Sing makes bosses trivial with good play (I also might have to reset a bit to get Skitty from the questions, some times it's not possible) | |

| 12 | - | Q: Why is your partner Charmander? |
| 12 | + | Q: Why is your partner Squirtle? |
| 13 | - | A: I like Charmander. Most people use Squirtle as partner, I honestly don't know which is better. I routed Charmander, so here I am |
| 13 | + | A: Squirtle also gets Tail Whip, which is very useful to link for bosses. Bubble also comes in handy for a few slows, but mainly it's that he gets Tail Whip and 2 other attacks by level 7 that make him stand out. |

| 15 | Q: Why are you quicksaving in just about every dungeon? | |
| 16 | - | A: Everywhere, and for 2 reasons. 1) My previous run was done on Red (the GBA game) which is slower, and also because I'm manipulating the dungeon maps |
| 16 | + | |
| 17 | ||
| 18 | - | Q: How are you doing that? |
| 18 | + | |
| 19 | A: Yeah, there is. The first floor of every dungeon can't be manipulated, which means your PP, Experience, and also obviously the first floor itself are still not consistent. And neither the missions that you have to do, or their rewards. Tiny Woods also isn't manipulated at all because it's slower on average to do so. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | Q: But this run is a lot more execution heavy now? | |
| 22 | A: Yeah, very much so. In fact I'm going to have to do multiple runs of this game just to get myself to be better at the execution, because it's fast, and there's a lot of it. To memorise all the patterns at high speed will take some time. There's still a lot more routing that can be improved, I'm sure (at least backup strats for missions anyway), but I want to start doing some runs to see what does and doesn't work, and also just get used to the feel of doing runs. | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | Q: Where do you expect to make up time? | |
| 25 | A: A few places had bad Floor 1 RNG, but I routed out where I can save time on execution in the dungeons. Some of the time save is because of routing improvement, and some is because I messed up in my PB. Note that these numbers reflect if I play pretty much perfectly, which I don't expect to do before building up some series muscle memory: | |

| 30 | A: Yes | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | Q: Isn't this a luck based run? | |
| 33 | A: Yes, there is luck involved. Yes, I am still running it. I love pokemon and will run it regardless :) |
