[Renegade Platinum] Any% Glitchless FAQ

Pokémon Renegade Platinum - Any% Glitchless (Complete SR) FAQ

Q. What is 'Renegade Platinum' ?
A. Pokémon Renegade Platinum is a ROM hack developed by Dray (Drayano60 : https://twitter.com/Drayano60 ). It features :
   - a deeper storyline, some side locations because mandatory to progress
   - Gen 6 updates of the Sinnoh PokéDex
   - Gen 6 updates of moves
   - trainer battles are updated, and Gym Leaders all have well-balanced parties.
   - completely different items locations
   - additional abilities for some Pokémon (Piplup can have Torrent/Vital Spirit, Typhlosion can have Blaze/Adaptability, etc.)

Q. What is 'Complete SR' ?
A. Dray provides a bunch of patches to apply to the Classic version of the ROM. For speedrunning, i'm applying two of them :
   - Complete version : introduces the Fairy type and assigns different types to some Pokémon (for example, Feraligatr is Water/Dark, Mismagius is Ghost/Fairy, etc.)
   - Speedrun version : increases the speed of the vanilla Platinum game, by setting text display & HP bars to be instantaneously updated.

Q. What is 'Any% Glitchless' ?
A. It's about finishing the game (defeat the Pokémon League) without using any groundbreaking bugs or glitches. Only one small trick is used in the run to save nearly a minute in Wayward Cave, by being on the Bike while followed by a companion.

Q. What's the route ?
A. You know how Empoleon is the way to go in vanilla Platinum Glitchless ? Well ... it doesn't really change here ! A very bulky Pokémon with high Sp.Attack which can hit hard while tanking very well.
   The route layout is like so :
   - get a Rash 11/31/29/31/31/30 Piplup with Torrent (Hidden Power Ice 67) through RNG manipulation
   - get free starters in Rowan's Lab (especially Chimchar)
   - get Hidden Power in Jubilife
   - catch a Flier on Route 204
   - (catch a Ralts on Route 203 if L7 Flier, which is useful in two places)
   - get a free Lapras in Pastoria
   - sweep through the game
