WHAT DO YOU MEAN I STILL NEED 4139 STEPS?!
Have you ever kept dousing yourself with repels to keep going down Route 113 in Hoenn to collect a bunch of Volcanic ash to get those special items made by Glass Workshop?
And how long did it take you before you were sick of it? All that pacing, back and forth, covering yourself with ash and being cold... so, coooooolllllllldddddddd..... All those Spinda, Skarmory... the occasional Sandshrew... and Slugma exclusive to Emerald... so... coooooolllllllllldddddddddd..... er, right. So, how was collecting ash for you? |
I went through there once on the way to Fallabar (spelled wrong I know sorry)
never went back hated it hate Spinda can't stand the place just my opinion |
I collected a little bit of ash, made it into a flute (can't remember which one) and got out of there really fast. But that was my reaction to Hoenn in general.
|
If I'm there and want the Black Flute, I always grind there instead of walking with Repels. Since Spinda is so extremely common at that place, it's a paradise for things that need Sp.A EVs, even though I never do any serious EV training, I still utilize this quite often.
|
I used it for Special Attack EV training only. The ash items (like Ash the anime character) aren't worth my time or effort. But with all the EV training I used to do there I might have enough ash for something. Now where did I put my Emerald...?
|
I think I seriously started collecting ash for the pretty chair and desk in my last playthrough of Sapphire. I repelled myself and wandered about for a good while... and for some reason it didn't bother me at all. o_o *freak*
I didn't get enough ash, but as far as I'm concerned, I have all the time in the world to go ash-collecting now that I've beaten the Elite Four. |
I'm another one of those Spinda killers. One would think they would/should be exinct and be a fossil in the near years of the future given how hideously common they are.
|
I went mad and collect lots of ash once and made every single flute, i was ash crazyebehehehyehehehe.
Though i dont find it cold because ITS JUST A GAME! |
Meh it dident bother me much cuz i just make the flute that wakes up your pokemon, and then i usealy get outer there
|
To be honest I never tried to collect ash. I think MAYBE once but I didn't get anywhere. Maybe on my next run through I will.

I don't think I have that patience anymore. Actually, wait. I know that I'm not patient enough anymore. |
Dude I hated that place, I personally think it is not only the ugliest place in RSE but that the pokemon there are also the ugliest ones in RSE. Gawrd I remember trying to get everything on that damned list, I spent at least a good 20 hours total in that one place... pacing back and fort, back... and then forth.... then back again. Freagin items weren't even worth it.
|
Insert random filler here.
|
I hardly ever did it, and when I did I kept asking myself why the hell I were doing it... SO ah well, I might have gotten a flute or two but...
It was SOOO COOLLLD... D: Pokey Out :t156: |
Everytime I play emerald (Or Ruby or Saphire) I make it a point to train my pokemon on those routes just to get the Blue and Yellow flutes. If I get lucky, maybe the Red Flute to. I couldn't care less about the rest though.
|
I found the area utterly boring. The pokemon there had to appeal to me.
|
I only went there for the blue flute (wakey-wakey). Since the games came out, I never got a piece of furniture. NEVER.
|
I actually train there for a long time anyway, so I end up with a lot of ash. I need a Blue, Red, and Yellow Flute before I advance. But that's just me.
|
Yeah, I'd run around there for a while and get ash, but I never got anything more than the first few flutes. I mainly went there because I loved the music.
|
I don't like the encounters, without that it could be good idea. I don't want to throw away repels!
|
Oh yeah, I remember that, and I found it very annoying. I remember breaking it down into a science, finding the perfect path so that I could walk over every patch in the shortest amount of time, and then leave the area and come back. I repeated this process until I had all the items. =D
And seeing as I've kept the items ever since(even trading some to my 4th gen games), I'll conclude that it was worth it! :D |

Oh SNAP ! , not that place ! >_<
It was me whos stood an entire night with his GBA in his hand trying to get that Glass Table . Then , at 3 AM or so after walking like a crazy Triathlon Guy who tries to beat his master , I went to the Glass Shop (or whatever ...) NOTE : My battery was red .... "You still need 1 more step for that item " NOTE : I was holding my finger over the light since it annoys me . Goes out on the door , keeping calm ... then guess what ? You guessed ? GREAT ! If it's correct , my battery ran out ! So ..... SUICIDES !!! How would you feel ? I was so horrible mooded that next day at school that I got a C in Maths . Since then , I never walked around that place , except when I replay RSE so I can reach Fallarbor and, respectively, Meteor Falls . I'm still like : >>____<< |
Lol, I go through there tons.Unlike other Spinda haters (although the unique spots thing is cool), I don't avoid them, I hunt them down to kill
|
I love Route 113's theme; it was more that than the ash collection that kept me there.
