Why Meowth and Squirtle?

Meowth is used because:

Meowth is one of the 4 pokemon that have the lowest level by the end of the run at 13 along with Charmander, Eevee, and Treecko.
Meowth has the ability pickup, which can be used to instantly grab items from certain manipulated floors in order to not buy them from the shop.

Squirtle is used because:

Squirtle has Bubble early on which protects us until we get Frustration TMs, especially with the possibility of slowing enemies / bosses.

Introduction:

For Beginners, it really doesn’t matter who you get, but strats might be slightly altered, the notes written here are for Meowth & Squirtle.

Speedrun Notes!

How to read these notes:

-Capital letters denote that you can “Run” (using B)

-Lowercase letters denote that you have to walk it

-Here’s what each letter means, it’s self explanatory

-U: Up

-R: Right
-D: Down

-L: Left

-Any combination of the 2 without a space means you need to diagonally move in that manner (UL: up and left in a diagonal fashion).

-Numbers followed by an * refer to questions you have to answer. The number indicates the slot of the question being asked, so the top choice is 1, the next choice is 2, etc.

From Tiny Woods to Mt. Steel you should keep track of exp if you’re chasing WR, you need about 92 - 134 exp from random encounters to get a double level up at Skarmory for Meowth, Charmander, Eevee, and Treecko. I’ve compiled a list of how much exp each gain to try and help with that, as well as strats at Mt. Steel in order to get in this range.

Certain Floors have encounters that you can’t avoid, so you have the chance to level up when fighting one of the enemies.

Lvl+: Level up adds no change to the route

Lvl-: Level up changes the route and you will need to do a backup strat

Lvl?: Level up not tested, play with caution

Tiny Woods:

Exp Gained

Pokemon	Exp Gained

Once you are past Mt. Steel 1F the route is manipulated so you get a certain amount of encounters. In order to get a 2x level up on skarmory use these different strategies depending on how much exp you’ve obtained before Mt. Steel 2F. (Don’t count the two voltorbs on TWC 4F & 5F)

92-134	No extra encounters (0 exp)
135-137 No 2x lvl up	If you hit this range just reset out of frustration lol If you actually want to continue just don’t take any extra encounters.
