When you first played the game did anyone have any problems? like me trying to find the cave to unlock the regi, or trying to find a relicanth, also for the life of me I did not no where regice was.

the hardest part for me was the relicanth, I was exploitative so I found the islands before the underwater cave.

I got stuck at the Regis and I still do even after 20+playthroughs. I still have to google my way to do it, haha.

I can't do the Regi's without a guide for crap, though that's less of the puzzles, and more of the fact that they expect you to read braille.

Choosing a starter. I'll sit there for 30 mins trying to decide. Also I always have a problem catching any of the regi's. Just like I do with the birds in Kanto.

No, I first read a guide to know how to tackle them all. My only problem came when I was hunting for the relicanth (thanks to it's low encounter rate) as well as catching Regirock ( It gave me almost 13 resets)

The first time I read the braille, I didn't know what it was so I didn't touch that part of the game. I was 8 I think when I got Sapphire lol. The second time I played through it, I translated the braille by letter using a guide. After that, I gave up and looked it up online.

I can faintly remember what do but I can never remember which one to do for each and the exact details of it.

When I was solving the puzzles, I'd just learnt about Braille as part of Physics class, so yes, I just hit up Braille on the internet and decoded them all.

It was fun solving them.

I couldn't figure it out for the love of my life before I searched Google for it. Placement of Wailord and Relicant differs between the games, too, though that can be done with trial and error.

The first time I first learned about the puzzle of the trio, I never got stuck because I followed a guide made by Chuggaaconroy (LP'er on Youtube). And thanks to him, I never got stuck because he explained in full details what to do every time. Although it took me lodas of time to find a Relicanth.. around 3 hours? While it took me at least 15 minutes to get the Wailord.

The first time I did it, I had a guide that I followed. But every subsequent time, I got stuck inside the caverns, using random Flys and Cuts at like every square haha.

On my first playthrough I found the cave by mere accident. Also I remember trying to solve the puzzle to get to Regice in my Sapphire until suddenly the door simply opened xD

But since my battery died I can't get to him anymore...stupid clock events

I just really struggled with navigating Route 132 etc. to get to the Dive spot. Everything else was okay. As a kid I like solving the puzzle with Braille, made me feel like a genius xD. Now it's probably going to irritate me (literally just caught a Relicanth to go with my Wailord).
