3rd Gen is ralts considered rare?

Very decent of a Pokemon indeed, with will o wisp and sychronize. It's also a good calm minder with a good initial special defense. Stick on psychic and thunderbolt for the standard. Or play around a bit with reflect/light screen, destiny bond and HP Special.

Not bad, not bad at all!

i caught it in emerald but i cant be bothered trainin it

Here's what I think. There's two kinds of Pokemon: Rare and Legendary. Rare Pokemon are just hard to find and require a bit of patience. Legendary Pokemon are one of a kind and can always be found in one place. Ralts, i think, is considered rare, since it took me awhile to find it.

Actually, I found 12 ralts once, but only 2 of them were female. The first female I accidently fainted, but I caught the second.

Yeah. Ralts is rare. I was playing Sapphire and it took me about 20 encounters before I saw even one Ralts.

i know its not legendary! coz legendarys are one time and ca always be caought in someway, but still its great to have a physic soo close @ da start

I never really thought of ralts as rare, every time I play sapphire and go in the specific place where ralts can be found I see one.

well aparently theres like a 3% chance or something stupid like that

I spent almost 30 minutes walking around the grass before I could find a Ralts! My effort was not in vain though because as a result of walking around the grass, my torchic became level 15 at the end of my search.

Rave :D

LOL wow i stopped emrald anyways boring...

It took me two hours to get a darned ralts, and it can't attack till it's level six! yeah, its rare. Because stupid wally took them all away.

ralts rules!!! rock on ralts

If rare means the appearances in the wild, then yes Ralts is rare. With odds of 4%, that sounds pretty darn rare to me. ^_^
If rare means actual appearances in battles, then not really. Lots of people use Gardevoir in their teams, with it's high special defense and whatnot.

4%? No wonder it was so hard to find it! I got one though :)

I did some quick looking up, and in all of the Hoenn games, no matter the version or generation, Ralts can only be found on Route 102, has a 4% chance of appearing, and can only be found at level 3. So... yeah! I'd say that's pretty rare!

I remember in my first Sapphire playthrough I was convinced that Ralts only had a chance of appearing on the specific patch of grass where Wally was during the catch tutorial, and just kept looking in other directions on that patch of grass until I found a Ralts. That may seem ridiculous, but fast forward a few badges to Feebas, and a Pokemon only appearing on a specific tile doesn't seem so silly anymore.

Actually Yes. Because Ralts in only found in Route 102, where Wally caught it.
