Great Puzzle Danny

1. Start with a double elimination. Pincers <45> at r2c2 and r6c4 which toggle so 4 in one will create 5 in the other. Not a classic Remote Pair because r4c2 contains 457 but behaves like one nonetheless. R2c4<>45.

2.UR 38; r3c7<>38

3.Colouring on 5s; eliminates six of them

4.XY-Chain r28c3 r38c7; r2c8<> 9

I think I may have taken the wildest ride so far with this puzzle. A couple of interesting moves and probably some steps not needed.

Type 4 UR 14 r79c58 provide several different deletions
1, x-wing 1 overlay; r7c58<>4
2. To prevent the DP, (7)r7c8=(5)r7c5-(5=4)r1c5-(4=7)r1c9; r3c8<>7
3. Transport (7)r7c8-r7c13=r8c3-r13c3=(7)r3c12 plus the (7)r1c9 results in r3c78<>7, or as an AIC:
(7=4)r1c9-(4=5)r1c5 - UR14[(5)r7c5=(7)r7c8]r79c58-r7c13=r8c3-r13c3=(7)r3c12; r3c78<>7

kite 4 with hinge box8; r1c7<>4
"Grounded" skyscraper 4 r1c59 plus transport (4)r9c5-r9c8=(4)r8c7; r4c7<>4
ER 5 with hinge box5 SL r24c2; r2c4<>5

AXY-wing 34-5 with vertex (34)r2c4, pincers (45)r1c5 & (35)r8c4 plus fin (4)r8c4
If xy-wing is true: r7c5<>5
If fin is true: (4)r8c4-(4=5)r6c4-r6c1=(5)r7c1; r7c5<>5

Kraken cell (457)r4c2
(4)r4c2; r6c13<>4
(5)r4c2-(5=4)r2c2-r2c4=(4)r6c4; r6c13<>4
(7)r4c2-(7=4)r5c1; r6c13<>4

Type 1 UR38 r36c67; r3c7<>38

My path was basically the same as Marty's...

Turbot Fish(5); r2c4<>5
Kite(5); r8c3<>5

These first two steps can be done 'in one' if you indulge in x-colouring... which I still occasionally tinker with.

Type 3 UR(38) pseudo-cell(479); r3c3<>479, r3c6<>4
Skyscraper(4); r4c78<>4
Type 1 UR(14); r7c8<>14
