[section=Glitzville pt. 1]
Note: If you get “Use at least 1 special move” you should almost always fail an earth tremor, as it is the fastest thing to do. If you don’t have enough SP for an earth tremor, it is faster to sweet treat rather than appeal for enough to do an earth tremor. This is also a good backup strat to regain HP/FP if you need it.

Note 2: Jumping while waiting for the Guards delays him from entering the room. Try to avoid doing any actions during this time aside from equipping badges/changing partners.

Go inside the lower lobby doors
Sign up to be a fighter

For the 5 fights you use fright masks on, you only have 1 extra. Do not waste your extra unless it is absolutely necessary. You need 1 star point from these battles to not be over-leveled, but it is ok to normally kill some enemies. You have a buffer of 9 star points.

#19 Goomba Bros (5 Goombas)
Standard: Mario: Appeal, Koops: Power Shell

#18 KP Koopas (2 KP Koopas, 1 KP Paratroopa)
Standard: Koops: Fright Mask, Mario: Jump (if 1 koopa doesn’t run)
No Items: Jumps + Shell Tosses

#17 Pokey Triplets (3 Pokeys)
Standard: Fright Mask
No Items: Quake Hammer + Power Shell

#16 Dead Bones (3 Dull Bones)
Standard: Power Shell
Don't Attack With Partner: Quake Hammer
Don't Use FP: Hammer + Shell Toss

#15 Spike Storm (2 Spinies and 1 Lakitu)
Standard: Koops: Fright Mask, Mario: Spin Jump (if lakitu doesn’t run)
No Items: Earth Tremor

#14 Hand-It-Overs (2 Red Bandits, 2 Green Bandits)
Standard: Koops: Fright Mask, Mario: Power Bounce (if 1 Bandit doesn’t run)
No Items: Gale Force

#13 Mind Bogglers (1 Pale Piranha, 1 Dark Puff, 1 Pider)
Standard: Fright Mask, Hammer + Shell Toss (If Piranha doesn't run)
No Items: Gale Force

#12 Punk Rocks (3 Hyper Bald Clefts)
Standard: Thunder Rage
No Items: Quake Hammer + Power Shell

#11 Bomb Squad
Standard: Fire Flower (Fright Mask if overlevelled)
No Items: Multibounce + Power Shell

Note: If you got more than 9 extra star points from chapter 3 fights, use your last fright mask here to fix leveling. If you’re overleveled, it’s ok, it just means you will have to take a 30 second loss in Chapter 4.

You will typically level up here or on Armored Harriers.
Level Up! (BP > 6)

Go outside to get Yoshi egg
(Email before going inside)

#10 Armored Harriers (before Yoshi)
Mario: Run Away

Note: If you get “Appeal at least once”, “Appeal 3 times”, “Take damage at least ‘n’ times” or “Use at least 1 special move”, you must fulfill battle condition before you run away or else you will fight rank 12 which is randomly generated between minor league fighters.

Yoshi hatches and joins your party

#10 Armored Harriers (after Yoshi)
Standard: Gulp

Enter Major League

Pick up Ice Storm in locker room
#9 Tiny Spinies (2 Red Spike Buzzy Beetles)
Standard: Failed Quake Hammer, Gulp
Don't Attack With Mario: Gulp + Superguard
Don't Use Hammer: Earth Tremor
Don't Attack With Partner: Earth Tremor
Don't Use FP: Earth Tremor

#8 Poker Faces (2 Bristles)
Standard: Quake Hammer

Note: You’ll want to fail this condition no matter what so you start de-ranking immediately. Getting “don’t use hammer” is good luck here. If you get something like “don’t switch partner out” then swap with partner and then quake hammer. Or if you get “don’t use items” then use your honey syrup. You just have to disobey what he says and figure out the fastest way to beat them.

Note 2: Sometimes this fight will be Shell Shockers, although it is rare. This is bad luck and you just have to attack them until they’re dead. They do more damage when on their backs!

After you get to rank #8, Get Super Hammer
Break Block in Minor League locker room
Get Dubious Paper confiscated

#8 Poker Faces
Fail condition and run away

#9 Tiny Spinies
Fail condition and run away

#10 Armored Harriers
Run Away

You’ll want to manipulate your HP to be as low as possible and FP at least 3. You can rest up before Armored Harriers fight and let them damage you a few times to put yourself in a good position.

[section=The Great Tree pt. 2]
Once you are back in minor league (deranked to #11), leave Glitzville

In rogueport, if you still don’t have Mega Rush, check Charlieton again. If he’s not selling it, just head to east rogueport and go into the sewers.

Head down to the room with the big yellow block and 2 blue switches and open Chapter 2 (left pipe).

Head down in The Great Tree to the cage room and break the floor panel inside the cage. This will revert the game back to chapter 2. Leave the way you came from and head back to Glitzville. Open Chapter 1 pipe on your way back.

IMPORTANT: If you are not at 1HP, fall in the sewer water to put yourself in peril. If you do not have at least 3 FP, buy a honey syrup from the Rogueport shop and use that.

Check Charlieton again on your way back. If he’s still not selling it (that jerk) then go to the train/blimp area to reset what he’s selling and come back and check. Keep doing this until he has it.
[/section]
[section=Glitzville pt. 2]
When you restart chapter 3, you want to advance one text box as another comes on screen to delay the opening cutscene and let the yoshi egg cutscene finish out first. Here’s a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mv09HI2ZF4

If you did it right, the Rawk Hawk cutscene in the ring will happen. This means you correctly reverted the game to the beginning of Chapter 3.

Go to Grubba’s office just like before. When he’s walking to the Champion room, you’ll run into a guard before the cutscene takes you. This is normal.

When he asks you to sign up to be a fighter, MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT SIGN UP.
Now you can walk around his room. Do Bookcase Jump and walk into the vent
Go to Grubba’s office from vent, check the desk (YOU HAVE TO DO THIS OR YOU SOFTLOCK) and chase after him

Navigate the room and hit the stairs switch
Hover with Yoshi to get the card key
Use Card key to enter the final room

Note: You can hover from the card key platform  to get on top of the save block, at which point you should hover to the heal block, and then perform a spring jump to get to the moving platform. This will skip going through the background again. If you can’t get on top of the save block, you will probably have to fight the Z-Yux so he doesn’t first attack you. If you stand directly to the right of the heal block, you can time a spring jump to get up to the moving platform, but the moving platforms are off screen.
