Headbob!First world record on the no lucky egg route, and I couldn't be more excited about it!!
Couple sizable timelosses, mainly Meowstic not using Psychic on the first Flare Admin double battle and also getting Flying Press on champ, totaling around a minute of timeloss combined. That being said, I'm super happy with how I played this run!

For context, even with my -Sp.Def Eternatus, I was only 0.9% to die in two hits to Leon's Aegislash. Then, because I died, I no longer had an X-Speed to outspeed Leon's Dragapult, so I was forced to take a hit from it and got paralyzed. Then, when I healed the paralysis on Leon's Charizard, it randomly chose Max Airstream, which increases its speed by one stage and causes it to outspeed me. This forces me to stall out Charizard's Dynamax; in the process, I use up all my healing items and Leon sets up sandstorm with Max Rockfall.. Then, once it comes down from its dynamax, it flinches me with Air Slash, and because of the sandstorm damage, I am unable to tank another hit and am forced to die. Pretty fun :)Pokémon Sword Any% with DLC in 4:01:04 (Alolan Raichu)Headbob!2024-11-03 | 2nd den, 0 extra encounters, horrible horrible horrible piers+raihan gymPokémon Sword Any% with DLC in 4:01:12 (Scyther)Headbob!2024-10-26 | unrouted, lots of encountersGalarian Star Tournament Speedrun in 6:57:48Headbob!2024-10-23 | GST is a category where you beat the main game, both DLC stories and the postgame before beating the Galarian Star Tournament that gets unlocked afterwards. In doing this, you are forced to catch 9 different legendary Pokemon and you only have 2 Master Balls, resulting in much of the variance in this category being in those catches. In this run, I got pretty lucky with my catches and lost the world record to fumbling the encounter with Galarian Zapdos, but this time is very good still so I thankfully have not much reason to continue (this category is obviously very long)Pokemon Sword Any% in 4:05:48Headbob!2024-10-14 | With turbo and new optimizations to the Candyfloss route.
