3rd Gen

You can't "catch 'em all" anymore.

ShyRayq, May 24: I've personally completed the 3rd Gen pokedex with and without the Gamecube games. Without Gamecube is such a drag. Rather than spend hours catching ~200 pokemon and trading over ~200 pokemon 3 times in order to get all 3 Johto starters, I'd only...

Pokemon Center Men

Amore, May 3: In terms of the guys, I think I've noticed all of them. I got really into Secret Bases though, so definitely prefer getting the Trader. For the women, the only one I've ever noticed it the Pokéblok lady. As I never had - and never will have -...

The Internal Battery Has Run Dry...

HeroLinik, May 3: My Emerald battery died around 2012, but it didn't really affect much as I'd far moved on from Emerald at that point. I came around to replacing it earlier this year, and did it successfully, restarting my save so I could make full use of my new...

Scott

Amore, May 1: I liked Scott because he massaged my ego 😆 I was surprised at his anime appearance too though, I don't know what I expected but it wasn't that! He makes Emerald's super-difficult Battle Frontier feel that bit more special though. I think I...

Artisan Cave

Amore, May 1: I never had anyone to trade with, and when I was younger my parents were a lot thriftier than they are now - whilst my Xbox360 got replaced twice, I had to sell my GBA on the cheap to get the money for a new DS game - so I don't even have a GBA but...

Sales

Palamon, May 1: In R/S/E sometimes there would be sales on the roof in the Lilycove Department store. It's a very random and rare occurrence in the original games. You can buy stuff for your secret base if you're lucky enough to get a sale. You will usually...

The Pomeg glitch

Palamon, Apr 14: I haven't tried it, no, but I've always wanted to try it? But I hear that it can cause severe side effects, so I haven't yet. Also, you can do this glitch in Platinum, too, but I don't think you can do this glitch to the extent of the way you can in...

Mt. Chimney

Hoenn - Home to the best Pokemon of any region?

Is this a good team for pokemon emerald?

Janp, Jan 1: I think it's fine team. You might consider swapping up Gyarados for someone else, since you already have Water-type and Gyarados' movepool is pretty bad in Gen III. My suggestion would be either Ice or Dragon-type. Slaking is also fun to use, but...

Move types

Nah, Dec 7: If an attack is the same type as the Pokemon using it, the move has 50% more power. It's usually referred to as "Same Type Attack Boost", or STAB for short. Hitmonchan is a Fighting type, and Brick Break is a Fighting type attack, so it has...
