@GreenCastleBlock Cud u please message me and tell me how to do it, i can do it in 4 for white and 3 for black, but not 4 for both, i've been trying it for hours :(

That is a frustrating problem!
-
1.e4 c6 2.Bb5 e6 3. Bxc6 dxc6 is the only one I can find...
-
Good puzzle. Now I will go watch some booty.

You could also solve the 4 mover with 1. e3 Nf3 2. Bb5 c6 3. Bxc6 dxc6 4. e4 Ng8

Doesn't 1. e4,e6(/c6) 2. Bc4,c6(/e6) 3. Bxe6,dxe6 also work for 3 moves?

That is true. However, the difficult problem is to do it in 4 moves.

Nice. I remember when I first solved this puzzle. It is very difficult for most people to get.
See if you can solve this one. From the start position, remove both 'a' pawns and add a black pawn on b6. How is this position reached?

I love these types of problems.
Well, I came up with this solution. There is probably a much more elegant solution. But this is my first try.
1. a4 Nh6 2.Ra3 Ng8 3.Rb3 Nh6 4.Rb6 axb6 5.Nf3 Ra5 6.Ng1 Rb5 7.a5 Rc5 8.a6 Rb5 9.a7 Rc5 10.a8R Rb5 11.Ra1 Ng8 12.Ra2 Ra5 13.Ra1 Ra8
