I finally figured out why I would soft lock and get stuck on the outside of the mountain. On the first dismount, you have to make sure you do not bonk the mountain with the chocobo. Stop in the dismount position without ever bonking the mountain
Just completed my best run of 9h30m over the weekend without doing step counts or this skip. Doing another run. Still no step counts yet, but decided to take this on. Took about 20 minutes to get it, but then I got it 2x in a row.
So I haven’t tried it out yet! But here’s my other issue when I try doing the other glitch with the Zolom encounter I’ll appear on the other side but when I dismount the Chocobo it just leaves?! Wtf! I’ve done 1/2 the Chocobo glitch ONCE the one where you go near Junon and since then I can’t do it again! Like I know it’s not intentional hence the name glitch but it still pisses me off! Why even make the Chocobo flee when dismounting seems stupid and lazy writing but hey what can ya do?!
If you appear on the other side, but the chocobo flees, that means you were not actually up on the grass. Try moving in taps so you can see the chocobo's standing animation before getting into the fight, and look at the chocobo's feet. If you can see the feet, you're on the grass; if you can't, you're in the swamp. It's a very difficult and inconsistent trick, which is why it was routed out ASAP, haha
These videos are so good. I'm hooked! A huge thank you!

this was awesome how you also showed the previous version of the skip :D

does this work on the switch version too?
I haven't specifically tested Switch, but it should work on all platforms.
@@DashRetro thanks
@@DashRetro doesn’t work!
@@ssj4gogeta130 it does work actually, I just now performed the skip on a switch
Clabe-locked lol
