    Wow, I've been trying this for the first time for about 15 hours (game time).
    I'm still in the Battle Tower. You guys weren't kidding around, this is hard.

    You can't switch in the Battle Arena though, thats what were talking about Shanecdavis

    :t093:~*!*~Queen Boo~*!*~

    That definitely isn't the impression that I got. You made mention to Greta, but Black_Wind then talked about the BF in general, and that is when you made your comment. If you were still only referring to the BA, I apologize for not being able to interpret that. :S

    shanecdavis That is what switching out is for.

    ~*!*~Queen Boo~*!*~ I guess, but there has always been one thing that I didn't like about Heracross and its not its fault. The fact that it has a 4x weakness to flying

    Black_Wind not just that but he's just pretty good all round for the frontier.

    ~*!*~Queen Boo~*!*~ Yea that Megahorn would be pretty good for going against Greta's Umbreon

    Black_Wind I Find Heracross is very good in BF,
    I use a move set of:
    Brick Break
    Megahorn
    Bulk up
    Facade
     

    It's Just Fufu

    Are the Lati's@Soul Dew allowed in the BF? My shiny Latios holding Soul Dew is allowed to be entered at the Battle Tower in the Wireless Multi Battle Station(the one on the far right). I noticed it while I was cloning my shiny Latios.

    Also, is Latios@Soul Dew with CM/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam/Dragon Claw adequate for the BF? I want to put Recover over Ice Beam, but if I do, I have Steelix problems. I could use Boltbeam+ CM/Recover, but I'm not sure...

    You answered your own question about Latias.

    If you have problems with Steelix, you switch out to something else that doesn't. Personally, I would put Recover in place of CM. Against the AI, the Soul Dew boost is typically sufficient. CM/IB/TB/Recover works fine though. Personally, I don't use Legis in the BF though, so I cannot say for sure.

    Me?

    I absolutly hate-HATE!-the battle frontier. It makes no sense to me at all. (this might be because I lost my Emerald version, like, a month after I got it???) ^-^ Ha HA!

    I like the Battle Factory. It opens up endless possibilites post elite four. You can go and create new teams after your sick of some and keep trying new and different things. Plus the trainers here can be really challenging which makes it all the more fun.

    I havn't really focused too much yet on it because I'm trying to get some new pokemon before I try it out, but I have gotten the Silver Knowledge Symbol using: Marowak, Milotic, and Espeon. He had a Medicham, Nidoqueen, and Arcanine.

    So what should I focus on next? I was working on the Battle Dome but I'm still drying to develop a good team.

    Battle frontier is for people who want to beat the game 100%. I would advise to train all your pokemon to lvl 50. Then do the battle tower. Then do all the rest of the stuff. Then train them to lvl 100.

    ...I just went through my first try with my new CBMence, and I learned something that I never encounted before (obviously):

    CBMence DOES NOT WORK in the Battle Palace.
