Implementation: #32 (3fbc679).

Why a person: the playthrough checks the walk from Blackthorn down Routes 45 and 46 to Ecruteak and the Suicune battle, and unit tests cover MonCheck, the Rainbow Wing, the climb to Ho-Oh and the way to Lugia. These checks cover the scenes, the ledges and the cave layouts in the browser.

Setup (on a machine with the user's Crystal 1.1 ROM)

Run MAKE_TEST_SAVES=1 npx vitest run tests/playthrough.test.ts.
Run npm run dev, load the ROM, then Savegames → Import native backup → test-saves/blackthorn-city.crystal-save.json (or tin-tower.crystal-save.json), then Play.
blackthorn-city starts in Blackthorn City with the CLEAR BELL. tin-tower starts inside Tin Tower 1F after the Suicune battle. The backups must stay local.

Steps and expected results

Routes 45 and 46 (blackthorn-city): go south from Blackthorn; the ledges only let you jump down. Dark Cave's Blackthorn entrance opens from Route 45. Route 46 leads to the Route 29 gate.
Ecruteak's Tin Tower entrance: a sage steps in your way; talk to him and he hears the CLEAR BELL. Go through the back to the Wise Trio's room and on to the tower.
Tin Tower 1F: Raikou and Entei (unless caught) run off; Suicune battles you; Eusine arrives afterwards. Leave and come back: Suicune is gone.
Whirl Islands: from Route 41, surf to the island entrances and look around the caves with SURF and WHIRLPOOL. Lugia's chamber is empty without the SILVER WING.
Repeat a ledge jump and Whirlpool with the on-screen controls on a phone or tablet. Record device and browser.

Known boundaries: no sound; Tin Tower's upper floors and Ho-Oh need the RAINBOW WING (after the League), and Lugia needs the SILVER WING (Kanto); neither can be reached by playing yet. Do not report those as regressions.

Report: tick the checks completed, give the browser/device and commit tested, and describe any failure with the last action and expected/actual behavior. Leave this card in A tester until a person has performed the checks.
