TTYD JP Any% Route (w/ UHE, DJ, TRE)

The majority of this route was made by Almolicious. I just edited it to accompany the changes needed for JP.

Timing starts when you accept the file name

Note: Leave the memory card out to skip the autosave at the start of the game. There are no autosaves after this so you can put it in any time after the curtain pulls.

Go back to Flurrie’s House

Go back to Great Tree
(Email on screen with great tree)
Blow away secret entrance and enter Great Tree


*The Great Tree*
X-Nauts
Mario: Fright Mask


Go to the top of the tree (where the cells are)
Enter storage room


X-Naut
Mario: Power Bounce x4

X-Nauts

Level up! (BP > 6)


Blow Punies across gap (unlock door while they are in bubbles)


10 Jabbi fight
Get Blue Key


Use Flurrie to stun Pider on the way back. You can also walk on the southernmost part of the screen, but the Punies may fall down, so stunning the Pider is safer.

Pick up Thunder Rage from the bush in the bubble room (leave the Punies here)


Go back to cells and release all Punies.


“Puni Glitch” down to the pipe below. It is luck if your count drops to 75 or 45 right away.


Go back to bubble room and blow the 91 Punies across


Puni Glitch down to the next pipe
Reveal Hidden block below Damage Dodge P with Koops (switch fast)


Note: You can hit the invisible block with your hammer, but you have to be in a very specific spot, and if you waste too much time setting up, the Pider will scare the Punies. Koops is recommended.

Note 2: If Damage Dodge P goes out the left side, grab it quickly and go into the next loading zone before the punies get scared. If it goes out the right side of the block, you’ll have to skip it. There’s a backup badge later on to collect.


100 Jabbi fight


Goombella Buffer


Puni glitch to the pipe in the next room.


Use Koops to hit Blue switch in water room


Note: If you time it right, you can hit the switch at the same time you go down the pipe, which saves time on the pipe traversing cutscene. This is somewhat risky if you time it too early.

Note 2: It is luck-based, but you can use the Puni glitch across the platforms and go down the pipe, skipping the scene to lower the water. I don’t recommend this.


Go down pipe and place Puni orb in the next 2 spots to reveal Crystal Star Leave the punies in the pillar and start the first escape

X-Nauts
Mario: Fright Mask

During the first escape, go and grab the super boots
