Okay, I'm done with Emerald. Speedran through the rest of the game from where I left off. Sorry, no screenshots this time as I was kinda bored.
Tate & Liza: Had to use Hyper Potions for this. Sent out my HM Slaves (Oddish, Tropius, Lotad) to anyhow tank, while Mawile devastated them with Crunch. The Earthquakes were not appreciated :( Oddish evolved into Gloom after the battle. o.o Got myself a Tentacool, and HM Slaves became Tropius + Tentacool, ditching Gloom/Lotad. Aqua Admin: Need I say more? Called Rayquaza, challenged Juan. Juan: Vicegrip. Period. Kingdra required a Hyper Potion. Blah blah blah Wally: Vicegrip. -.- Am I getting repetitive? Elite Four - Taught Mawile Return. 102 power ftw. Sidney Return, Return, Ice Beam, Ice Beam, Return. (Ice Beam -> Grass/Dark) Phoebe Crunch x2 (repeat x3), Crunch (repeat x2) Obviously, OHKOes on Banette, 2HKOs on Dusclops/Sableye. Whoever uses Ice Return actually does more power than Rock Tomb, but I used some of them anyway. Hyper Potion x1 vs Walrein, others 2HKO by Return. Drake Ice Beam (repeat x5) Wallace Return x2 (repeat x5) Kinda surprised that Milotic also died to 2 Returns. Whiscash + Gyarados Earthquake killed me, sent Tropius out to Revive, and Gyarados retardedly used Hyper Beam. HALL OF FAME! http://www.fileden.com/files/2006/9/8/209083/USCE/pmeu-mawile_12.png http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/6/6b/Spr_b_g3_303.png Gnawie! Level 79 Mawile Lonely/Hyper Cutter HP 186/Atk 176/Def 155/SpA 133/SpD 117/Spe 130 http://serebii.net/attackdex/type/dark.gif Crunch http://serebii.net/attackdex-dp/type/rock.gif Rock Tomb http://serebii.net/attackdex-dp/type/normal.gif Return http://serebii.net/attackdex-dp/type/ice.gif Ice Beam Thoughts: Hyper Cutter is actually the better option for Mawile, as you will be OHKOing everything anyway, Intimidate is rather useless, and you won't get Intimidated by other people. Skipped a lot of trainers this time, that's why the lower level. Still surprised at Level 79 though, considering that I was only Level 61 at my previous update (which should be about ~70% completion) This runthrough was slightly harder than the Fire Red runthrough because of those goddamn Earthquake users everywhere. Charizard didn't give me a problem because of Rock Slide in Fire Red (it's unobtainable in Emerald) I should be doing Platinum next, but I intend to take a break and play my Transformers game :D |

@Emoxy: jup I noticed too that Emerald is harder than FireRed. For me it was the steel types that got me sometimes :).
@Daniehej: ++ for playing on the real thing. I got bored from doing it (no speed up) but respect for those who do. Update of my Emerald quest: I did team Magma on my way to the next gym, as always those are easy. They're put in the game to give you some exp ;).. And I need to remind myself to get a good ground move asap. Because with only normal moves those Aron's become a real annoyance. Nevertheless I did Flannery without a ground move. But it wasn't a problem, they were all OHKO except for that Torckoal. He landed an overheat and I confirm that it does hurt, especially for steel so gratz @Emoxy and his Mawille to pass this one. After that match I ran off to the next gym, my dad's gym. That's a strong one to face if you go with the same lvl pokemons. And as expected I failed first. That Slaking with is damn counter attack, he was barely holding on himself. Even one SD wasn't enough to OHKO Slaking, thus got countered again, next time I used 2 SD and it worked. After that match I searched myself new HM slaves, now I've got a Linoone and a Tropius. I also challenged Winona and I was easy, but maybe it was because I learned HellSlash to use Thunderbolt? I did that for all those Skarmory which I can barely do damage.. But like I said, a smooth match and I got my feather badge!! |
Ohhhh Shi- Just created a save state instead of loading one :-(
Will have to start again going to speed run back to lavender :P Edit: Oh yeah. Only taking screenshot's for Important event's now, cant be bothered cropping loads of them :P Well Im roughly back where I was before I had to restart. Only this time I saved just outside off the Rock Tunnel instead of going through it because I cant be bothered stumbling through the dark, bumping into walls and encountering Zubat's every 2 seconds <_< Anyway here's a random Pic of me outside Rock Tunnel just because it didnt feel right not including a Pic :P http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww142/darren-1875/Pokemon-FireRed_01-1.png More updates tomorrow ;) |
Ok, so here it is the entire Update containing Emerald!
Spoiler:
I'll warn you there are alot of videos there. There were only 3 main problems in this run. Winona was tough due to her first pokemon having perish song and her general flying disposition. Tate and Liza loved the psychic moves so I had to be careful but luckily my HM slaves took the hits while I seeded Xatu and grew enough to OHKO her other rock type pokemon. Then It was just a case of waiting it out. One more problem was Flannery as her overheat could really hurt my Venusaur and if sunny day was up well forget it. It needed some careful strategy but I managed. Ok now that's done I'll start on Diamond. Problem is I can't speed up the emulator so videos will be a long time coming especially as I got a job. But videos there will be! |

It's basically an attachment for no$gba and im pretty sure there is a speed up button on it (Like vba has) Of course I could be talking nonsense, Im no computer whiz ( As you can see by my last post :P ) It's worth a try though ;) |
A quick update, I made some more progress although it took longer than it should have since I tend to multitask.
I'm not going to do what I did last time because that kind of annoyed me. Instead, I'll just do a summary of what I did. From where I last left off, I began to grind so that SUPERMANLY didn't need to rely on BOB during battles. Then I made my way through Mt. Moon, leveling up even more. Afterwards, I had the Move Tutor teach SUPERMANLY Mega Punch, which is a much stronger attack than Pound. Then I started on Misty's gym. The two trainers were no problem, but Misty gave me a bit of trouble. Especially her Starmie. After attempting a few times, I decided that I would try and fight my rival, Verde, first. Verde was much easier, although his Bulbasaur annoyed me with Sleep Powder, so that took a couple of attempts. Afterwards, he gave me the Fame Checker, which I think is pretty much useless. Thanks a lot, bud. Then I tried to fight Misty again, and it still took me a couple tries, but I beat her and got the Cascade Badge. I also taught SUPERMANLY Water Pulse, because I felt like it. After that, I fought all of the trainers and helped Bill to get the S.S. Anne ticket. Then I fought some more and got to Vermillion City. I went on the ship, fought all of those trainers, evolved SUPERMANLY with my Moon Stone, fought Verde again, but by this point SUPERMANLY was a high enough level that it was a piece of cake. I got Cut from the captain, and I got off the boat. After catching a Digglet (also named BOB) and teaching him Cut, I took on the third Gym with ease. I got the Thunder Badge, then began on Route 11, which is where I stopped. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/4e/Spr_3f_040.png SUPERMANLY / Wigglytuff (M) Lv. 36 Bold / Cute Charm

Sleet is right, no$zoomer just upgrades no$gba's nintendo ds emulation abilities ;). It's needed for HG/SS. But before you can use it you'll need 3 other files too but I'm sure there's a thread around here explaining all that.
Here is another update of my Emerald adventure: Hehe, after that last gym I was moving to the next town/mt.Pyre and I realized that I only had 1 attack for ghosts.. But thunderbolt uses SPA so I decided to go for a Shadow Ball and also Brick Break for the steel/rock types. Since I can't get to Brick Break yet I'll use Thunderbolt for a while. And now I've done mt.Pyre, the Magma's hideout is next.. It was easy, I just got some exp. Back at Lilycove city I also defeated my rival once more, all OHKO after a SD. Just that tropius did once a whirlwind so I needed to switch back in set me up again. I've also gone to Mossdeep and got the HM Dive. From there went straight to waken up Kyogre and Rayquaza. There's not much to tell, it's just defeating Team Aqua's and travelling. But after that it's the final gym. I didn't had any problems with it at all, it was a quick match. Now for next update the elite four!! |

Also, my final update in the Hoenn regio: The victory road was easy, I've beat the one with his Ralts again with no problems. And then I finally arrived at the league. I immediately started and everything went good. First of the Elite Four is done with Brick Break, second with Shadow Ball, third again with Brick Break. All OHKO and never got problems. But that Lance is a bit different, I got hit by a Rock Tomb and my speed went down, so now his pokémons took the first hit. And Salamence KO'd HellSlash. But the second time I attempted it went smoother, I didn't got hit by that Rock Tomb and it was all OHKO for me. Finally I meet the champion, also easy (I think I train too much :p). Anyway his Milotic wasn't a OHKO, and it shouldn't be. That Milotic is a beatiful and strong Pokémon. And especially strong; after my hit it hitted me back leaving me at 23 HP. We both did a full restore but his def got lowered (Crush Claw ftw!) so next hit was a OHKO. And now I'm the champion of the Hoenn regio! Thanks to my HM slaves: Linoone/Tropius/Sharpedo And :t335: HellSlash Lvl 76 Crush Claw / Shadow Ball / Brick Break / Swords Dance HP: 233 Atk: 217 Def: 116 Spa: 127 Spd: 103 Spe: 173 |

Hi, I am a new member. I came across this thread while browsing the forum, and I thought it sounded like fun! I'm gonna be using Gold, and my pokemon will be Cybdaquil (and evolutions).
|
Well I'm a bit late xD
Gonna do the challenge with my favourite poke, Scizor! Using VBA and sharking Sciz in (it would take too long and be too confusing to start with Scyther) at the beginning of each. So! Firered/Leafgreen (whichever I can get a rom for) Silver Ruby then D/P if I can get a rom and emu, if not, Plat doing it the old fashioned way! xD Let the challenge begin... ... to get roms... |
