That's interesting, I'll take a look at one of his runs in Bizhawk right now and watch his inputs. I guess it's as simple as trying over and over again with different button combinations, then. Are there any particular values I should watch for crits to make it easier, or just the try, try again method?

Hey, I'm new to TASing, and I decided to try my hand at Pokemon Blue. I have what I think is a half-decent plan for my route, however I'm not expecting to break any records. Despite the tutorials on the site, however, I'm having trouble with manipulation. I managed to get IVs for my starter that I was moderately happy with, but I'm not certain I did it right as I did a lot of fidgeting around and looking at other TASes, it doesn't seem like so much fidgeting is happening. As soon as I got into the rival battle, I can't tell if what I'm doing is making any difference as I can't seem to land a critical hit and every hit I land is dealing 3 damage (although the damage value sometimes shows 4 damage for one frame, but switches permanently to 3 by the next). I also can't find any information on gen 1 manipulation anywhere else. Could I get a point in the right direction about how I'm supposed to be doing this? For clarity, the page I was using for most, if not all of my information, is linked below. http://tasvideos.org/GameResources/GBx/Pokemon.html
