#Welcome!

You may be wondering, how in the world does a blind person play Pokemon games? The answer is fairly simple, memorization. We are able to memorize the battle menus, the party menus, and the cry of each Pokemon. However, there are times where we struggle with playing, such as navigating difficult areas, using menus that aren't always used (e.g) the battle tower menus, etc.

The goal of this sub is to ask for the help of those with sight to collaborate and make these obstacles accessible. Any walkthrough you post is greatly appreciated. It doesn't matter what game it's from, or the size of the walkthrough. The plan is to add all the walkthroughs to one big text file, eventually so we can have a step by step walkthrough for each game.

Note: The link to the Black and White walkthrough is the recommended way the tutorials should be written.

Blind users, feel free to ask for a specific walkthrough, however all you can do is ask and it may or may not be written for a while.

###Rules

Please take this sub seriously. Those who purposely give false directions may result in a ban.
Please respect each other, blind users especially. Those who create these walkthroughs are going out of their way and using their personal time to generously create these walkthroughs.
Walkthroughs that you create must be in a .txt format.
Walkthroughs may be posted to be critiqued by others. If everyone is satisfied with it, I will add it to my site, as well as add it to a txt file that will be available for download.
If you see an error in a completed walkthrough that I have uploaded, message me and we can discuss fixing it.
