    I haven't yet really looked into Emrald Version yet. I've beaten Ruby/Sapphire, and now I need to ask, is Emrald all that diffrent and worth 35 bucks? 'Cause I'm just not sure... Can anyone give me their opinions on the game? Thanks.

    Yep, it's definately worth getting. Emerald is a nice step up from R/S. I liked it alot more, personally. :0 Plus, the Battle Frontier is alot of fun after you've beat the Elite Four.

    Yes, you are exactly right. It is worth every penny you spend on it. An amazing investment. Not only the addition of the Battle Frontier, but the addition of the Safari Zone East.

    If you're completely obsessed with Pokemon like me, then yes, Emerald is certainly worth buying. I think getting it is crucial to completing your Pokedex, as some Pokemon, like Mew (I think) are only obtainable through it. However, if Pokemon does not rule your life, then you won't find the new additions to be worth the $30-$40 you paid for it.

    It is better than the other two special editions. Battle Frontier ist great.

    There are some new locations, other Pok?mon to catch and some smaller changes, e.g. you can have your on wallpaper in your Pok?mon box (look at my signature for further details)

    If you are willing to shell out another $30-$35 for the Battle Frontier, and a slighty different plot like I was, then yeah it's worth getting. I only regret my purchase slighty because I could have used that money to go towards saving up for a Revolution. =/

    Emerald might be a good invesment if you are addicted to Pokemon. Since most people have mentioned the bigger add ons...

    -Breeding Pokemon is made easier, with the Flame Body trick, you can breed in Natures with the Everstone technique.

    -Moving sprites are fun, but after a while you might get annoyed by them.

    -You can breed a Volt Tackle Pichu... It might be worth while to see its animation.

    definetly yes. It's got some unique pkmn, it's ditched that st00pid contest thing and gotten itself some decent battle domes, tch, an' Steven's pkmn are so far tha highest levelled of all pkmn in any pkmn game ever made... except for Red's Pikachu in GSC. ^^;;
