Obsoleting Movie
Published on 3/17/2006
Pokémon is a phenomenon that made itself very famous in a short time a few years ago. Pokémon Red is part of the first generation of the games of that series that were made.
Up until this day, thousands of Pokémon fans have analyzed the games, finding out the exact formulae of how each battle situation in these games works out, how experience and levels and everything works, and what are the most effective ways to battle.
The most sought Pokémon of the first generation is Mew, which is normally available only in officially organized events. Mew is capable of learning every possible fighting technique. This movie catches Mew wild due to a game glitch.
Every single attack in this game can miss, including the “never misses” attacks, and as a result, this is a no-damage run: no single harmful attack lands on the Pokémon the player uses. This is called “luck manipulation” on this site.
We recommend reading the author’s comments on this movie. This movie is about 5 minutes faster than the previous author’s movie due to using the most unrecommended choice, Charmander, as the starting Pokémon instead of Squirtle, and also for using the most unlikely found-in-wilderness Pokémon, Mew.

Charmander is generally seen as a suboptimal starting Pokémon due to its poor effectiveness against the first two gym leaders and a lack of useful substitute Pokémon en route. Surprisingly, Charmander may be the best choice since it can burn through all the bug Pokémon in between.

Pokémon Red is part of the first generation of games within its famous series, known for having a very large number of beneficial glitches. In fact, the game can be completed in less than one minute of in-game time by save data corruption as evidenced in the run of the Yellow Version, but that is not used here in favour of activating a similar glitch through more conventional means - if systematic breaking of the game can be called conventional.
This is an improvement of 37:56.40 over the previous run of Blue in this category. The previous run used entirely different glitches and is worth checking out as well.
It is recommended that you read the author's comments as well as the discussion relating to the movie to fully enjoy it.

Note: This movie requires VBA rerecording 19. The glitches work differently on other versions of VBA.
