    7:31 For those curious, the Gen 3 AI de-prioritizes Rock Tomb and other attacks that reduce speed when the target is already slower than the user. This works to our advantage here since Rock Tomb is also Nosepass's most damaging attack, but it will use Tackle if we are slower. So counter-intuitively, we actually want a slower Treecko for this section, slow enough that at -1 it is outsped by Roxanne's 0 IV Nosepass.
