Using Mowz CRASHES Paper Mario (and a bunch of other stuff too)

This is a quick highlight of my "Level 1 Scavenge" stream where I messed around with the Mowz text storage glitch a bunch during the playthrough.

Here's where I first learned about the glitch and some more info ►   • The TTYD Remake Has Some WEIRD Glitch...

For now it seems like the text storage can pretty much only be used to skip triggers. Besides skipping the Shadow Sirens battle in chapter 8, there hasn't been any huge applications for this glitch. But BOY can you do a bunch of weird stuff with it. From weird camera behavior to straight up crashing the game whenever you pick up an item. NICE!
This bug has A LOT of potential and I think the TTYD remake will probably get broken apart pretty soon.

I'm sure a lot of you already know, but on May 23rd 2024 the remake for the GameCube CLASSIC Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door released for Nintendo Switch!

The challenge I'm doing in this stream is called a "Level One Scavenge". The more well-known version of this challenge is called "Level ZERO Scavenge". In that one you are not allowed to equip badges, effectively being Level Zero. You could also do a "Level -1" challenge, where you ALSO can't use any FP.
I'm doing the "easier" (read "more fun") Level One variation because equipping badges allows for more fun setups and makes it more easy to slide in my own "no superguarding" stipulation. Why? Because superguarding is boring.

With the preamble out of the way, let me explain exactly what this challenge is.
I can only upgrade BP upon level up, but am only allowed to use 3 BP for the whole game. This makes level ups effectively useless, thus staying at level 1.
The "scavenge" part means I cannot use ANY shops or vendors, you can't buy ANYTHING (except the Contact Lens). No Badge Shop, no Item Shop, no Dazzle, No Parlor, No Merlee, nothing. You also can't use cooking. The only resources you are allowed to use is what you can find out in the field.
The big one that isn't exactly clear from the rules is that you CANNOT upgrade any partners. You are stuck with their base ranks. No Multibonk, No Stampede, No Bob-ombast. This really turns things you take for granted on their heads.
And then of course...no superguarding. Use actual strats. Not the B button.
