We're on to our second competitor in this challenge, Meganium. Meganium is very similar to Venusaur stat wise. It has base 100 Defense & Special. It gets access to both Swords Dance and Earthquake like Feraligatr did. Can it beat the water aligator AND Venusaurs time?

Before you ask. If you want to know how I managed to get Sneasel in Generation 1, Google "Sanqui".

Some common questions you might have.
Q: Are move sets updated?
A: Yes. Believe it updates to X and Y. Although not all moves from Gen 1 to Gen 6 are in the game I believe.

Q: Why didn't the rival pick Bulbasaur? Wouldn't that be your toughest match up?
A: The rom generates starters randomly, and reads it as its still Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur. I cannot replace it as with the Universal Pokemon Randomizer. So, in this case, it replaced Bulbasaurs pokeball. So the rival picked Charmander.

Q: How do you know what moves you can and can't learn?
A: I don't. Trial and error, and lots of resetting.



RULES:
1. I can only use Meganium in battle. Other pokemon can be obtained for HMs ONLY.
2. No items in battle.
3. No glitches or exploits (badge boost is the exception due to the faulty programming of Red/ Blue).
4. No Double Team until level 100.
5. No saving between Elite 4 members.

What is the Badge Boost Glitch? When you collect odd numbered badges, the game boosts a stat by 12.5%. Brock gives attack, Surge gives defense, Koga gives speed, and Blaine gives special. When any of your stats are modified, even if your opponent uses a move to modify your stats like Growl, the badge boosts are re-applied. So If you use Swords Dance, you also gain an additional 12.5% in Speed/Defense/Special (on top of the 12.5% you were supposed to be getting). When you level up, the game corrects this error and recalculates your stats, and only the non-glitch 12.5% remains.
