What do you play you Pokemon GBA Games for?
I play my'n to transfer Pokemon like Articuno and Groudon.
|
I play it to transfer my pokemon to Pearl. It's kind of sad, but I'm horribly sick of FireRed...
|
I used to play them to transfer pokemon to my diamond, but now i have finished that, so i sold my FR.
|
I like them, a bit more fast paced than Diamond, and to have a bit of a break.
Although, now that I have diamond I don't play them very often, but I still do now and then. Sam |
I play them because I don't have Pearl yet (or a DS for that matter...) and to transfer Pokemon once I do get Pearl. xD
|
I bought Fire Red and Emerald to migrate all those Pokemon you can't get in Diamond. Now that I caught them all in Diamond, I play Fire Red and Emerald more often now trying to catch them all as well.
|
same here migration
thats why i bought fire red and all of them for |
I guess we all do it for the same reason. I wonder what other reasons are...
|
I play them because I just...enjoy them. (And to trade Pokemon via Pal Park)
I've restarted my Emerald game a few times, so I can level up my Pokemon more at the beggining. :P Like Ausaudriel said, I have some good memories of my Ruby version, but it's lost now, so I play Emerald instead. I love the music in R/S/E, mostly the music for routes 119/120. I actually like R/S/E better than D/P. |
I play them for the fun of completing them.I don't restart but I think I should restart emerald or maybe I should get all the BF symbols and train a great team.Choices..
|
I only play to transfer then raise them there.
|
well all time classics i play my emerald to get some shinies
|
ummmmm, i don't get it, i play them because they are just as good as D/P, the only differene is graphics, i play firered and emerald just as much as my diamond, i mean what is the difference? really!
|
I play Emerald because I think its far more fun than D/P. Also I prefer to breed an EV train in emerald because I keep losing my EV value list for Sinnoh and I know the best ev training spots in emerald. I recall not being able to find any decent ev training places in Pearl anyway (apart from Sp Atk)
|
Hmmm... It seems like the Majority of us uses them to transfer...
|
I sometimes transfer my pokemon to diamond and pearl because it seems easier to train. ;) also I am playing my ruby version as well, so far I have 3 badges. :)
|
I play Emerald for the faster breeding as well as the tutored moves. I started a new game after migrating all my stuff to Diamond because I need to get a good IVd, Regirock, Regice and Registeel and Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza. (so sue me if I enjoy an Uber match every now and then. :x) Firered, I play for fun. Kanto is my favorite region of all time and the gameplay is generally much more enjoyable than in the newer games. FR/LG also happen to be the only two Pokémon games that (in my opinion) actually have some memorable tracks. I love everything from the route themes to the final battle music and there are very few (if any) tracks in Firered and Leafgreen that I dislike. That, and there's the nostalgia factor. The graphics are also the best Pokémon game graphics ever made in my opinion.

i just play the games to transfer the pokemon i bought emerald version so i could get a gligar and other pokemon im very sick of my leafgreen version before i wanted to buy firered to get a growlithe and a scyther. I restart my games a lot on leafgreen i had a level 65 charizrd and i think a level 70 dragonite i beat leafgreen and got to the other island that i could catch pokemon from gold and silver but i restarted that file that was stupid of me.
|
Wow. I agree with all. I will start a poll on this.
|
I play mine for fun and when I get Diamond I'm going to transfer it over
|
for fun and for transferring. such as training starmie to level 100 and then migrating
|
Starmie is a good Pokemon. I have two at level 100 that were migrated from Pokemon LeafGreen
|
i know. it beat my friends CELEBI
btw mrshawn7, are you mrshawn7 from pokebeach? |
yes I am. why? PLease PM me if you wish to talk to me about off topic things. (not to be mean)
|
lol i just enjoy playing them and completing them then a few months later ill restart and play again i also migrate from pal park but i mainly play them for fun
|
I play them because I enjoy them, I play Emerald for the breeding purpose that differs from D/P, and I play them to migrate too.
|
I play them because their fun, but I started being a bit more motivated so I can transfer them to Diamond.
|
I enjoy playing all of the Pokémon games equally, so yes, I still play them. Lately, I haven't been playing them as much because I am working on a new team for my Pokémon Pearl Version. |
Because I like playing Pocket Monsters and to trade, collect and battle. And also to transfere some Pokemon to DP.
|
How! look at the poll fill up. still, most of us use them to migrate
|
I use them to migrate as well.
But the GBA games are TONS of fun, I love Kanto and Hoenn. Like others said, Kanto and Hoenn are just plain AWSOME, and they're a great break from the D/P series. ^_^ I should've voted for "For the fun of it ", but I voted for the top reason instead. Stupid Stupid me. x_x Now I want to play Fire Red and Sapphire again, so i'm gonna go get my GBASP now. |
i still play them for the fun of it and to transferer pokemon

I like playing Pokemon on my GBA cus that means that I can play it on the go!
|
yeah i just play it for fun i cant wait till i get Diamond Or Pearl cause it sounds cool
|
Hmmm... I wonder if the upcoming Pokemon Platinum will have the migrating thing...
|
why do I play the GBA games?
i play FRLG for transferring pokemon (because there's not a lot you can really do in frlg, like you can in RS and particularly E) I play RSE for fun. Anything Worth Transferring usually gets duped and then transferred. I restart about twice a month after getting bored with the previous file. |
Quote:
|
Yes it is. Although it was the only game that after the league, you go on a new adventure, until DP came out.
|
True, but that quest is very short, when I play firered, or leaf green, I usually breed and train my pokes.
|
i still play them for fun, i don't own P/D, or a DS :(
Why does everyone always say there isn't much to do in the game. You didn't think that when it came out... |
start
im playing a new file now on my emerald version for fun i started with a treecko
|
Hmmm... Treeko is actually the Pokemon I usually start out with in Emerald
|
Quote:
|
I play them because i have nothing to do. Another is that i am the most powerful champion ever and i won't let that down.

Quote:
|
I play them for past time's sake, really. That, and to finish the various dexes I never completed.
|
Quote:
Anyways, I like to play them as I love the graphics and the stories were original, even in Firered and Leafgreen because they wrote all of that stuff for the Sevii Islands and my Original Leafgreen i got very far in and it took me months to finish it as there was so much to do and see. |

I like to play them as a break from Diamond...just like get away really.
Firered and sapphire most of the time... |

|
because after a new regioned game, they make another one using the new region so it will catch on and all that.

Hihi, I'm a minority. I play Ruby and FireRed because I don't own a DS ^^
|
that makes sense lol! I play it for fun
|
Quote:
|
I play them because I like them. Not for transfering Pokemon to DP, not for training Pokemon that will be eventually transferred to DP, but just because I like playing them.

|
Well, of course I play for fun. I love the GBA games, even more then the Ds ones! I don't like the D/P contests...
|
Quote:
|
I don't like Contests at all. They have kind of ruined the game somewhat, but I guess there is a lot of people who likes them.
|
I play mine to follow with what the season 1 does in the show?
|
i play tehm beacuse thier fun
|

I like them because they're a lot faster. The battles don't take nearly as long even with battle anim. on. The characters move faster when walking, too. :S I guess I'm just impatient, but Diamond battles are a pain in the butt with animations on. Quote:

But try out Shiny Gold or the (soon-to-be?) Platinum version, while waiting for the official re-makes. :P
Or start a new game. It's sad to lose your recorded things in a gameboy game (why is there only 1 slot?) but the strange happiness you get every time you start a game over... ouh. Of course though, it's not completely as fun when you've done this a couple hundred times... |
Pretty much all 3 reasons. My friends that have the Diamond and Pearl games like it when I have my GBA with me, so that they can put my Pokemon in their Pal Park. That's how my one friend ended up with a Moltres and Zapdos xD
But I also play them because I myself don't have a DS. But when I do get one, I plan on putting everybody on my GBA games into the Pal Park. Plus, it's fun reminiscing a little xD |
Just to play what I haven't played..
RS = Done (Ruby) Emerald = No FR = Now playing DP = Nearly at the E4, then someone deleted my game >_< Crystal = Done a long time ago.. RBY = Had a look at the graphic, lost my enthusiasm.. |

also, who said emerald had nothing to do after the elite four? first, you've got a megaton of legendaries left over. seriously, groudon, kyogre, regis (unless you already took care of that. I didn't.) Latias (forget latios. I can just port him over from ruby or use AR codes.) and, fi you don't qualify it as hacking (and i don't as long as you catch them fairly, meaning without masterball codes or the like) mew, ho-oh, deoxys, lugia. and then there's battle frontier, which is a whole 'nother ballgame. it lasts about six times as long as the Sevii islands quests, and is more rewarding. that's what emerald is for. I restart, like i said, twice a month just for the heck of it. |
wow. this thread is getting pretty popular. i haven't played a Pokemon Game in a while. I do not know what to do...

I play them for fun. I really enjoy playing the Pokemon games now and then... that reminds me I gotta start playing them again... ^^' I've played MD for quite a while now... Maybe I should restart FireRed?
Ah well, and I don't have DS...yet.. |
Poll Results
Well. It seems like more people enjoy playing for the fun of it.
|
I play the Pokémon GBA games because they are fun and because I don't have Diamond or Pearl.:'(
|
Isn't it obvious? To have fun of course! :)
|
The main reason is because I enjoy them, but I also don't have a DS...
|
i play my ruby and emerald so i can transfer the legends on to my diamond.. i have been tryin to beat emerald this weekend. so i can get my rayquaza :)
|
Now that D/P came out I really only play it to transfer D/P Pokemon and Pokemon from coliseum and XD
|
hmm... ok. seems like a lot more people play them for fun
|
LeafGreen is my only game and i've played it at least 20 times, just for fun. Unfortunately i don't have a DS or DP.
|
That is sad. Start saving up your money!
|
I play with them for the fun of it and I play also to transfer Pokemon into Pokemon Diamond and Pearl
:t354:TG |
wow! so far, 50 people play for the fun of it.
|
Unfortunately, i haven't acquired enough money for a DS.Sobz.
Nuff sedd. |
wow. sad.... I have a DS!
|
I played them on emulators, it used to be really fun.
|
Because it's fun and i havent got pokemon diamon/peral.
|
I have not played a GBA Game in a while. I think today I will start on a LeafGreen version
|
i play just for the fun. some times i wish pokemon were real.
|
I Play for the fun but I put to transfer b/c that swhat Ive been doing mostly...
Every once and a while a play pokemon yellow just to relive the memories, but then get frusterated when I cant do the same things possible in the newer games, then quit:disappoin... |
i play them for fun, or because i feel like it. I transfered everything from my GBA games to myt Pearl already, so now i just play because i feel like it.
|
Migrating pokemon sauch as CBGross or Agiligross. I want FR or LG (I had one but some guy stole it) so tha I can get Electivire and Magmortar although I could just buy PBR for that.
|
I am a fan and for the fun of it
|
The only reason I play my other old games is for the transfering on pokemon Diamond/Pearl and just having fun and bored.
|
I am using an Emulator to play FR. I used to have LG, but I lost it and idk where it is. Not to mention I am broke. If I had money I would buy FR and LG (again). Then I wanna buy a DS/Diamond. THEN I would transfer Poke's over.
