For as long as Ratchet and Clank has been speedrun, we’ve been trying to find Pokitaru Skip. For many years, though, the skip remained an impenetrable barrier that taunted even the greatest of the community’s strat hunters. That being said, significant progress was made in the late 2010s, solving 6 out of the strat’s 7 necessary parts. It was at this point that ThaRixer released his video essay “Ratchet & Clank’s Unsolved Mystery”. This video would go on to amass nearly 1 million views, sending a shockwave of new interest into the trick.
This video is a spiritual sequel to Ricky’s video. In the last 4 years, there have been significant changes in Ratchet speedrunning. This has led to making Poki Skip not only possible, but overall faster than any other existing strategy. In this video, I’ll be going over all the discoveries that made this possible, as well as the next impossible challenge facing the RaC community.
