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

[Ralts]

The Hardest Thing in R\S\Emereald is to EVOLVE FEEBAS !!!! Is that clear ???

 

[Minako]

I always have problems with the Elite Four. I tend to undertrain my Pok?mon, so I usually get slaughtered before I make it past Kagetsu [Sidney]... XD I hardly ever remember to train Pok?mon to cover those weaknesses for the Elite Four. >> +bangs head on screen+ And Senri [Norman] gives me trouble, too. Though, in Emerald, I had my Hariyama, so he was easy. XP

 

[NiNGi's Worst Nightmare]

The hardest part for me was choosing a permanent team. The first time I fought the E4, I had a weak team, with my 2 strongest being:

Swampert lvl 61 @Soft Sand
-Earthquake
-Muddy Water
-Water Gun
-Ice Beam

Kyogre lvl 54 @none
-Surf
-Ice Beam
-Thunder (TM)
-Calm Mind

Now, things are changed. I can beat the E4 without breaking a sweat. Swampert's at lvl 100, and the rest of the team is around 77. :)

yah the electric gym was HELL in Sapphire I had treeko I think at the time and All my pokemon team was a treeko,cascoon,tallow,and oddish. yah, it was hard I got like 20 potions and 5 paralyze heals. Then at that part of the game your hp is low so sonic boom and that one unavoidable lightning attack devasted me for quite a few tries:)

 

[pokejungle]

Just found out another hard thing in Emerald :(

Finding someplace decent to train ~.~;

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

In R/S it was easy, the Pokemon in the Sky Pillar were late 40ties early 50ties, and it was a great place to train. But know they are weak, and there is really no place to train. I have one suggestion though. My bro found that the place with Smeargle is a decent place to train.

 

[pokejungle]

Artisan Cave is in the BF and I haven't beat the Elite 4 XD

Ya...I tried Victory Road, but it sucks. Now I'm just trying to surf for some more trainers.

My lvl 19 Ralts SUCKS.

 

[Kyle]

For me in saphire it was finding out how to get your starter LoL!! :dead: ,
eventually I figured it out

But the hardest gym for me was the phsycic one, I don't now the names thoguh... :\

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

You know I never had any trouble getting my starter. Did not know you could.

Tate and Liza are the names of the Psychic gym leaders.

 

[hikkichan]

Ralts: I can concur that Feebas is an evil thing to evolve. ^o^

I just restarted my game a while ago and I'm currently on the hunt for Feebas... again. Hunting for Feebas was probably the hardest part of my Sapphire game. -_-; But for me Norman and Flannery were really tricky... that stupid Slaking and her Torkoal drove me nuts. :\

 

[Batesymon]

Fairly easy. Just the BF I'm having trouble with.

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

I know I know what you are talking about, but what is BF?

 

[kohei]

I know I know what you are talking about, but what is BF?

Boyfriend... I mean Battle Frontier. This is how I usually refere to it too.

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

Ohh I thought I knew what you mean. Yeah the Frontier is difficult.

 

[Celebi22]

I had lot of problems with Liza and Tate.I started of with Delcatty and Swampert with a Thunderbolt for Xatu and a Surf attack for Claydol.Claydol kept on using Earthquake and fainting my Pokemon.Somehow I managed to faint them.Next came Lunatone and Solrock.They kept on using Flamethrower+Phychic combo and fainting my Pokemon.Second time I tried to defeat them with Thunder+Surf+Crunch combo and I won.

Second thing,I had a little trouble with Wallace's Milotic.It kept on using Ice Beam on my Rayquaza and it ended up have 33/256 HP left when Milotic fainted.

Third Steven,his Metagross was a pain in the neck.I had to defeat him with Swampert when every one was knocked out! :shocked:

 

[pichu11]

my hardest thing was rubustro city.( I was only young mind u)

 

[x-treme scripter]

For me the hardest thing was the elite four. I could kill them one hit no problem but I only train my Starter pokemon so I kept running out of pp.

 

[Squeegee Beckenheim]

It is no wonder you lost a lot. It is very imperative to train all different types.

 

[x-treme scripter]

I didn't lose. It was just hard.

 

[brotlov]

It would be when i first fought the elite 4 in Sapphire.
