Imakuni% Information

Imakuni% is a simple meme category, where you just obtain the Imakuni promo card from the No Tutorial start point. I thought that, since it's essentially a 1 duel run, it'd be interesting to manipulate it, so I looked into the most commonly hit Imakuni frames from a soft reset, and made a deck edit that makes a lot of them fairly quick wins. Here's the route:

Blindly fight Imakuni 1
Step outside the side room, deck edit:

Tweak (remove/readd):
Lightning
Charmeleon
Bill
Lightning
Comp
PP
[Add any card. If you got a PP or Oak from Imakuni's packs, just add the second one]
Oak
[Remove Meowth]

Save, soft reset, exit title screen when energy ball is on right half of N (aiming for a triple frame cluster where Imakuni will be in Fighting Club), fight

Basic fight strats: Always lead Diglett over Rattata, otherwise they might not attack while confused, and lead Lightning types over Fire/Fighting
If no free retreat Poke, and no Lightning type, go with Machop, then Charmander (unless no Fighting Energy)
If Machop and Machoke and Fighting Energy, set it up
Always prep Pikachus and other lightning types if possible to use their 2 energy attack
Try to do as much damage per turn as possible (Bite while setting up a Charmander, don't Scratch Scratch Slash)
If he has 4+ Pokemon after turn 1, or 3 Pokemon and you have bad resources, reset

Below here is all of the remnants from my routing, they could be useful. Also, I used this Lua script while routing; most usefully, typing 'A' will advance RNG once.

deck edit results:
53: Lightning
54: Charmeleon
55: Bill
56: Lightning

58: PP
59: whatever

Instead of tweaking Lightning, what about tweaking 3 pre-Pikachu pokemon?
(Put something in slot 53/55?)
Tweak Charmeleon, tweak 2 Growlithe? (or Charizard/Growlithe)

Remove 3 Lightning?
