It's possible that BBKaizo and LightBlueYoshi are actually alternate names for the same person... especially since the submission text uses a lot of first-person language. I don't know, though, so some clarification from BBKaizo would be nice.
Out of curiosity, how much time do you expect would be saved if you used that A-canceling trick throughout the movie?
EDIT: Never mind, I just noticed the submission text is copied straight from the YouTube description. That's also a mildly impolite thing to do. I tried to leave a YouTube comment to let LightBlueYoshi know about this, but I got an error trying to post a comment.

@Computerbird: Have you tested if getting Clokkle isn't faster? It's the Cyber-Elf that allows quickcharge.
It is on Flauclaws stage, a little after the crate protection part.
EDIT: Forget it, i thought that this elf's effect remained for the whole game, and it's only for one stage.
A movie that begins from clear save data and creates the state that the submission continues from.
There are less restrictions on it, use built in cheats and passwords and take as much time you need. Use whatever is easiest for you to create it. It's judged on a scale of "ok" or "invalid".
Well, actually didn't knew this rule, though, to actually make a movie of it, it would require like 2 or more days (in-movie time), since this game is fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckin long and repetitive (hence why i decided to make a play-around instead on going on story mode.
1. It lacks a goal that can be optimized towards
2. it doesn't hold the universal, obvious showoff of TASing ability appeal that the tetris playaround video has
Isn't there a soccer game TAS with the same capabilities >_>. And also, i targeted this game because of this: If you actually look to Articles - Movie Making - List of Ideas - GameBoy Advance. If you look here, Sonic Battle is listed there as a TAS that should be done. So I please ask this movie to be rated under that point of view.
Even for a playaround, doesn't we require a verification movie for the save?
Getting max everything on Emerl would take hours and hours and hours.
(Well, I guess you could put it on fast forward and come back to verify that it does give maximum stats.)
I'm planning on doing a play-around on battle mode. I want some opinions and suggestions.
2 Battles:
KO Battle = 15 KOs (First character to get 15 KOs wins)
Timed Battle = 5 Mins (Character with higher KO Count at the end wins)
Im gonna start from SRAM, fighting 3 enemies, all vs me. In the timed battle, i plan to use a fully equipped Emerl to fight against me.
Also, some combos or combo videos would be realy gratefull.
wow, impressive work with the Any% run, but i don't know what is your idea about use Biraid.
Do you want to use it in the elevator part of Tretista's stage?
No, it's a surprise, so wait for it ;)
EDIT: I will experiment on using Biraid on Tretista, no one knows what kind of glitch i can find.
Also, Rolanmen, don't you TAS nothing but Megaman games yourself?
I also TAS Fire Emblem, but i guess that's not the point. I would realy like him using his TASing abilities in other games or megaman games aswell, i heard that there are good hacks of MM4 and 5.
He should just leave MM2, for now, atleast.
Well, Why did you used an Mrbl3 before Gramor (Or whatever is the name of Mogu's home)? same reason as the dream land? Also, you didn't took any shortcut on the pass to Mogu's Attributes, i recommend you to experiment with it in this WIP, because then, you can calculate the exact number of Mrbl3 that you need.
Also, you should get the final fused form of Karn, Puka, it has an special attak that if you combine it with a Crit, it can do 999 damage to nearly everybody.
Isn't faster to use Shin a little more? Like on the cockarache fight. Also, on the crab fight, wouldn't be faster to make Bleu use a magic instead of make Ruy attack twice?
Im trying to TAS this, but i can't get some adresses, such as tanks, helicopters and others HP, can you or someone else share some adressed with me?
EDIT: Here's a little WIP i did of Area 1-1, i haven't tested if it's actually faster to do the helicopter skip, personally i don't think it is, but it's worth a test. Any opinions?
Before suiciding, you had Ox in front, but then you changed to Karn (probably because he was damaged), then suicided, later you changed Karn for Ox, because you need to destroy those boulders to get Shin (Karn's Transformation).
My question is, did you do that because it's faster to suicide with Karn because of low health than changing postiitons twice?
Copy-X Mark II finished (100%).
Next is Glacier, a big dissapointment for this run is that the midboss will be 3 times longer than the normal fight.
About the Any%, i finished Childre Inarabitta improving more than 669 (00:11.65 seconds) frames.
Did you changed Ox for Karn when you got the B. Rang. because he was alive? I ask because you would've to put Ox in front again to destroy those boulders in front of Shin.
Otherwise, everything looks fine except that you missed 2 criticals with Ryu at the slime boss.
Oh, i forgot to ask, are you going to use Karn Fusions?if you can get some of them, you are going to get another strong unit, you should definitively do that.
Hmm. In the first Spearman & Archer Fight, Bo could attack the last enemy standing, so Ryu don't need to attack twice, this will save some time.
Also, something that can be done is to make some of them die, like Karn and Bo, so Nina gets more Exp to learn Warp and also saves time because you won't need to make them defend.
I think you should've done one more ciritical instead 2 separated normal attack during the sandworm fight, also SnowDrg does more damage than ThrDrgm, though, i don't know if it saves time.
