(most of this route is shamelessly copy pasted from entrpntr's guide)

Use that guide as a reference for box names and d0 glitch grinding (it also has a slightly easier TID manip, but it loses a few seconds). The notes below are improved strats for WR attempts, and also include more details on cues and technical notes.

DISCLAIMER: This route only works on Silver. Refer to the old route if you want to run on Gold: https://pastebin.com/VDWfuung

TID Manip (saves several seconds by setting options pre-New Game)

	- Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGMsVa_Fl8U  (paste w/info: https://pastebin.com/8Wmj4Se8)
12+
	- Name player RRRRRRR (7 upper case R's; this is needed to maximize the chances of d0 glitch working at end).

	- Offset for timed B press: 28.70 (GBP/GSR), 28.15 (GBI)
14+
	- Take any Cyndaquil (stats don't matter). Take off its Berry.
15-
	- Alternative that gets StartSecond=1 (only if doing r29 manip; no video yet):

Optional r29 Manip: lol nobody bots for silver

18
(Run away from all encounters until you have Poke Balls.)
19-
	- Name player aaaaaaa (7 lower case a's; this is needed to maximize the chances of d0 glitch working at end).
19+
20
Rival: Leer spam
21-
	- Take any Cyndaquil (stats don't matter). Do not take off its Berry.
21+
	- Winning isn't needed, so just hope for fast death

Optional r29 Manip: https://pastebin.com/1GpQvrDK 
23+
24-
    - Leave lab on left tile for Any% (optimal movement, and gets the right PoisonStepCount)
24+
25-
    - IGT success is 59/60 on average across the three frames due to the lower step count
25+
26
	- Catch something
27
	- Tackle encounters a second time before throwing a ball (if the second Tackle isn't a threat to kill)
28
	- If you get a second encounter, you can catch it to double the window for getting the bad clone, although it's fine to just run away (no need for a third poke for ACE)
29-
Rival: Leer + Tackle spam
29+
30-
	- Must win to continue; need Tackle to be 3rd move for ACE, so must get L6 to learn Smokescreen
30+
31
	- Box Names: same from the collision route: https://pastebin.com/dpqDQmzX
32
	- Name boxes first, then Move w/o Mail to save
33
		- "Good" box naming reference video: https://youtu.be/5lv-F3XshvU (memorizing and practicing saves 20+ seconds)
34
		- Note this route has different box names, this video is from the old Gold route.
35-
	- Swap Smokescreen with Tackle before attacking first encounter
35+
36
		- Deposit cynda from the top of the party
37-
	- If you get a second encounter, damage and catch the poke (faster than making an extra clone, and you need 3 pokes)
37+
38
		- Don't bother moving new pokes into party; just deposit cynda for each attempt
39
	- Once successful, withdraw bad clone
40
	- Walk to d0 save tile (https://gunnermaniac.com/pokeworld2?map=1#279/221), save
41
	- Attempt d0 glitch (see notes below)
42-
	- In Move w/o Mail menu, move Cyndaquil to bottom of party (2nd, or 3rd w/extra catch)
42+
		- You only need to take 1 step down, so once you bonk spam A to talk to red
43-
	- If you need a 3rd poke: clone top poke (Sentret/Pidgey), then move cloned poke to top of party
43+
44
	
45-
		- Deposit both Sentrets/Pidgeys, from top of party
45+
46
47-
		- Don't bother moving new pokes into party; just deposit top 2 pokes for each attempt
47+
48-
	- Once successful, withdraw (bottom) bad clone
48+
49-
	- Walk to d0 save tile (don't bother turning to face up), swap bad clone with Cyndaquil (4th <-> 3rd), then save
49+
50-
		- Cyndaquil must be in 4th, and bad clone is best in 3rd because its stats/DVs are zeroed
50+
51-
		- This setup is guaranteed not to interfere with the ACE, which starts from end of 3rd poke's data
51+
	- GSR hard reset: same as GBP
52
	
53-
		- When you hear bonking, go left 2, up 5, right 2, press A to talk to Red
53+
54
	- Early = no clone, Late = clone w/normal nickname, Very Late = deposited w/no clone.
55
	- No nickname means you "hit the frame" (but bad clone itself is a subframe window)
56
	- L0 can either be a "real" or "fake" bad clone
57
		- L0 males are guaranteed "fake" bad clones
58
		- If L0 female is created, it could be real or fake (can check stats for glitched type to confirm)
59
		- What matters for this run is the clone has no moves (technically possible even without the glitched type)
60
		
61
Miscellaneous
62-
	- GSR hard reset: same as GBP, but not even possible unless there are 18 or 19 pokes in box (no subframe resetting)
62+
	- First try bad clone is a ~1/48 frame window when depositing 1 pokes
63
	- As the box fills up, the window gets larger; with a full box, it is around a 1 frame window
64
	- If 19 or fewer in box, you can release pokes and retry bad clone
65
	- If you fill up a box to 20/20 without getting bad clone, you must switch to a new box (releasing and retrying doesn't work)
66
	- Many abnormal results (too many to cover) can occur if you reset at cycle-perfect times 
67
	
68-
		- Every bad clone after the first L0 is guaranteed to be a "real" bad clone (no need to check, just withdraw)
68+
69
== Type d0 Glitch Notes ==
70-
		- If only one L0 female created, it could be real or fake (can check stats for glitched type to confirm)
70+
71
- Mash down on move screen (ACE exits to overworld, and you'll bonk on red once you go down)
72
- Press A or B if there is a textbox cursor to advance through
73
- This is an "RNG glitch" (depends on values in VRAM); it's only ~1/6 to work per reset
74-
	- First try bad clone is a ~1/24 frame window when depositing 2 pokes
74+
75
- Can continue trying even if you get "funky colors", may need to back out of menu or reset if screen goes full white
