Pokemon Silver - Catching the Legendary Dogs

****PLEASE READ BEFORE WATCHING!!!****
This is a Tool-Assisted Superplay of Pokémon Silver. This was made on an emulator using savestates, rerecordings. slowdown, and frame by frame recording. This video is not meant to show any skill but is only indented for entertainment and showing how far this game can be pushed to its limits!!!
If you don't know what a TAS is, please take some time and look at this page http://tasvideos.org/FAQ.html
Also, if you think this is cheating, watch this video explaining the differences between TASes and normal gameplay- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aACVCFO4ME0

Please note that the "Dogs" are always randomly located, but by using rerecords and luck manipulation, they can be found as fast as this or faster. Catching them was also tricky, but for all of the pokemon games, there is a very, very small chance that you can catch a wild pokemon with 1 pokeball, so I was able to test frames until I found the correct one.

I've been planning to make a run like this for a very long time now, I just never felt like trying until yesterday.

This was very frustrating to make, but the end result is cool. This isn't meant to be optimal or anything, just showing that with extreme luck, these 3 tricky to find and catch dogs can be found extremely fast

Enjoy!


If you're bored, you can watch the run on vba 19.3, It hopefully shouldn't desynch (It didnt for one of my other friends XD)

@willow7110 So you should know that it's not luck, he just savestates and plays it over again until it works. All you see is the time it worked.
