Puzzle #13: Pokétroid Challenge

You may not unequip items for the purpose of reequipping them later. The wording should be changed from "if she already has the maximum of four equipped" to "if she already has obtained four major items..."

Think of it in Pokémon terms, you can't relearn the moves you forgot. (without a tm or hm, but go fuck yourself).

So basically, no re-equipping items.

Puzzle #16

You may only have morph equipped when in the four rooms listed. It should say "You may temporarily have Morph Ball equipped while in these four rooms." Otherwise, it must be unequipped (if you have supers).

Puzzle #26: Hopper Hijinks

SBAs count as beam shots, so they are banned as well.

Puzzle #32: Stand Up

The three Crystal Flashes must be performed in the same room without leaving the room.

Puzzle #34: Battle Scars

Hi-Jump Boots are allowed in Gravitron (Lava Dive Room) after you kill the first boss.

Puzzle #39: Tactical Decisions

For hard mode, goal #2 may be accomplished by simply visiting the Wrecked Ship map station, as it is not able to be used; same goes for the Wrecked Ship reserve tank (goal 8), just visit the reserve tank location.

Puzzle #50: An Overdue Reward

R-tanks are included in "tanks." "You may only kill X boss(es)" shall be rephrased as "Only X boss(es) may be killed."

April Fools Race

GT code is banned. For rule #2, you may shoot once while facing left in tourian.
