successfully performed what is probably the hardest RNG manip in PSR to get insane Falkner and Bugsy splits.

Since I implemented "berry-ful" extended manips, I averaged a 14:53 Falkner split (sample size = 43). In 2024, I averaged 15:20 with a gold split of 14:55

WR! Definitely not a perfect run but happy to break through after all the work I've put in. 3:06 is doable but unsure if I'll go for it right away.

bad early, first ball raikou, spinnerless, bad Red split. job's not done

omgomgomgomg its happening

3 months later, 4 falker splits today averaging 14:57. Definitely an outlier, but huge progress nonetheless

3 runs to red in the past week. very lucky to get runs, but as soon as I get a spinnerless+first ball raikou...

proof of concept for humanly executing yoloballs in crystal. don't know if i'll push further into discovery to try to make this viable but cool nonetheless

In gen 2, trainer AI decides what move to use before you pick your move, greatly simplifying the fight execution needed to manipulate their attack on turn 1.

Extending manips into fights has started to shift from "feasible" to "viable to hit in runs"

After grinding for around 2 months, I finally got my goal time in Arceus 😭 this game is so fun I’m so glad I took the leap and learned it this past year.

With IGT tracking, this could enable manipping turn 1 of Rival 1 or Mikey and potentially save a huge amount of time in the Falkner split.

thanks to gifvex/entrpntr for helping me build this. interesting practice tool to get real-time feedback on clearing textboxes, implications for manip possibilities are massive if I can use this ROM to build consistency.

first time finishing advent of code! also good for practicing neovim
