Beating Round 1 with ONLY Joel (Silver) Pass [World Record]
Single Pass is a category that challenges you to beat Round 1 with any Single Rental Pass out of the 6 possible ones to choose from. However for Rental Passes other than Nate and Cyndy (The Beginner Rental Passes), you must play through some of the game to unlock the Passes.
-All Rental Passes not selected at the beginning are unlocked by beating Gateway Colosseum with them.
-Daisy and Tommy are available to use in Gateway after beating Waterfall Colosseum.
-However, Natalie and Joel are only available to use in Gateway after beating Sunny Park Colosseum and beating Gateway at least once.
-So the fastest route for Natalie/Joel is to do the standard Any% Route and once you beat Sunny Park, you are able to unlock and only use the desired Pass.
This run was pretty average, but this run doesn't start until you get Joel's pass. Joel's team has the slowest overall average speed stat, with the fastest pokemon being Hypno....
Machoke has Quick Claw, and I do believe with this run you need to get at least some good luck with Quick Claw, Fog, and Team Combinations. Joel's pass has fun pokemon to add to your team if you need to fill that last 5th/6th spot, but just using his team alone? That's a whole other story.
