3rd Gen What was the hardest part of R/S/E when you started playing it?

[Eiken]

I believe Wattson was his name.

Anyway,Tate & Liza were the hardest part for me. Took forever to beat them. Earthquake kept taking out my Pokemon really fast.

 

[pokejungle]

@ Hunk: You're right! Juan was a cinch compared to Wallace.

I actually had trouble on Wallace x.x;;

 

[v-lord]

the hardest part in all the games for me is building a good team at the beginning.

 

[pokejungle]

I agree ^^

You have to really train your guys if you want to PWN all the way through -.-;

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

the hardest part in all the games for me is building a good team at the beginning.

Agreed, I got Ruby the day it came out, and some of the new Pokemon and team building was honestly frightening.

 

[Morkula]

I pretty much blasted through everything Wallace and Juan had, except for Juan's Kingdra and Wallace's Milotic (and Ludicolo in Emerald, especially since I didn't have a flying type with me) x.x

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

I bet you had really strong electric or grass Pokemon

 

[Morkula]

In Emerald, my E4/Wallace team was *checks* Blaziken, Flygon, Starmie (Thunderbolt ;)), Manectric (again, Thunderbolt), Gardevoir (Thunderbolt... XD), and Absol.

 

[Mystic]

I better start putting my Manelectric at the front for more training. I'm going to need the extra help now. Wyona's being a pain towards me now. I don't have an Ice type and Alteria's doing a number over my Pokemon.

 

[pokejungle]

I think Raichu's a much better choice than manetric ^_~

Think you need that many thunderbolts? 0o;;

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

Thunderbolts are very good. I like using them. In Emerald I trained a Manectric and it was hard to train, but it was very fast. I trained a Raichu in LG and it was very strong but had low low hit points

 

[pokejungle]

My raichu has lots of HP ^^ Maybe you just got a sucky nature :P

Having tons of pokemon with thunderbolt is rather redundant though :/

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

You do have a point there. Thunderbolt on all or most Pokemon is very redundant.

 

[pokejungle]

^^

I'm studying the meta-game with Frostweaver XD

 

[Minese]

In Emerald I was stuck on Steven in Meteor Falls

Now I can't beat Battle Frontier.

 

[Hahlin]

Liza and Tate is hardest! Earthquake + Psychic!!! my pokemon can't stand long under their attacks! I spent lot of time to defeat them.

same here! it also took me a while at the Dewford gym and Normas gym, but, I beat the pokemon league with just Rayquaza, wierd

 

[steel_skarmory]

As far as the plot in the game such as, gym leaders, Team magma/aqua, and other stuff, nothing was really hard. What was hard was choosing the pkmn to use on my team, and getting them to lvl.100. It wasn't really hard, but it took me a long time.

 

[Dragon-Chan]

I didn't have any trouble till the Elite Four. I was using the "stomp" method with my Blaziken: I would power-level it until it was so high level that nothing where I was could beat it. The power levelling began when I evolved it into a combusken just to beat Roxanne.

 

[alakazamisbest]

the hardest part in all of the games is the begining cause u have to walk everywhere and that takes too long.

 

[Charizard_Fire_God]

Tch. That would be catchin' tha regis for me... >_<
