Catch 'em All Glitchless: Gen 3 FAQ:

What is this even?
-We're catching EVERY Pokemon in the Generation 3 (RSE FRLG) National Dex. Essentially, the mission is complete when we have been given Diplomas in EACH of the 5 Main Series Games. We're also not allowed to use any glitches (Item/Pokemon Duplication, Glitzer Popping, Bad Eggs, ect.).

Diplomas?
-Upon completion of the National Dex in each Generation, certain NPCs will give you a Diploma certifying that you have completed the national dex.

I thought you couldn't catch (X) without cheating or hacking? How do you plan to get them?
-Luckily for us, the game developers are a step ahead of us. There are 6 event Pokemon (Mew, Celebii, Ho-oh, Lugia, Jirachi, and Deoxys) That are unobtainable within these 5 games. However, in order to get the diplomas, these 6 are not checked for completion.

Well that doesn't sound like "Catching them all" to me. You guys are frauds!
-I don't make the rules. Refer to https://www.speedrun.com/Multiple_Pokemon_Games#Catch_em_all_Glitchless for official category rules.

Sounds Good. What are you playing on?
-We have 3 Gamecubes in Gameboy Player configuration hooked up to capture cards, being thread through a single computer (Called Karina), and showed off for your viewing pleasure. We also have Wireless adapters and Link Cables so that we can complete trade evolutions and dex fillings.

Is there a way I can see your catch counters?
-Yes, we're streaming Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald Dex Counters on: https://www.twitch.tv/sirarondight
Fire Red and Leaf Green can be found at: https://www.twitch.tv/ske1zor

How long do you expect this to take?
-Well the Current Best Reported Time is around 83 hours of Real Time (breaks timed in), but only about 53 Hours of actual gameplay, but I anticipate that we'll be taking about 4 total days (14 hours each day, so somewhere around 56 Estimated hours). Honestly speaking, we have no clue how long it'll be until we actually get about halfway through.
