Standard Route

Notes

  • Bear coins count: 12
  • You can skip all water pond, it's not too hard

Updated Standard Route

Notes

  • The movement in this route is a bit more optimal than the old video.
  • When you are an animal buddy and you take damage while jumping, there is a small windown where you can jump again if you repress B. This is used to get faster into the second bonus

Ellie Skip

Notes

  • Bear coins count: 12
  • This is extremely difficult, do not go for it unless you're confident.
  • Hold left when in the barrel, and as soon as you go out of the barrel, release so that you are facing the left direction without moving. At the top of your jump, hold Right to go to the ledge, team up as soon as you land on the ledge and throw up as soon as possible.

Ellie Skip Updated Route

Notes

  • This route has more optimal movement after you skip your Elephant, compared to the old video.
  • I used an easier Ellie Skip, explained on the video below. It's ~1 second slower than the old setup, use the one you're more confortable/consistent with.
  • You wanna avoid having both kongs on the second bonus since it lags the game a lot.

Ellie Skip Kiddy Route

Notes

  • Saves about 1-2 seconds over Dixie route.
  • Optimally, do the Banana Bird cave after the warp but before revisiting. This saves around 10 frames of overworld movement.
  • When entering the 1st bonus, hold Y but be neutral on the d-pad until you start the neutral roll. This will allow you to roll through the barrel for water bounces.
  • When water bouncing across the pond at 0:54, hold up to make sure you bonk into the right ledge. This bonk sets up the correct timing to roll under the red bee.
  • Slipping to the left of the bees before the Koin is tight. Make sure your movement leading up to it is clean or you will take damage.
  • When water bouncing across the pond starting at 1:13, hold left toward the end of the first bounce to avoid bonking the right ledge.

Easier Ellie Skip

  • Slightly slower but much easier Ellie skip.
