This is undoubtedly the best speedrun I saw in my entire. The amount, the level of technical details allied with precision and dexterity, that is, for me, the very essence and soul of speedrunning a game. It's my humble opinion, but I'm kinda tired of zips, glitches and out of bound stuff. For me, speedrunning it's all about pristine execution and technical details. And I'm frankly surprised to find this in a Pokemon game, of all RPGs, shooters, beat’em up, and so on, type of games out there. Congratulations, GunnerManiac.

[@chrisb8698]

41:55 scary foreshadowing on that Meditite fight: Getting confused from Confusion first try (1/10 chance), then Meditite using 4 Confusions back to back (1/256), on top of 2 consecutive self hits from being confused (1/4) for a grand total of 1/10240 probability; or approximately a 0.01% chance. You basically just watched the physical manifestation of the 0.01% of germs. Edit: On top of that, due to Meditite using Bind his Wingull didn't get killed when he swapped it in, so he had to split exp with it. So it was even worse luck than that.
