I still play FireRed and Ruby for my challenge runs :)
Hopefully I'll go to the flea market soon and find the rest of the gen III cartridges :)

I find FRLG to be easier games, but RSE are more enjoyable to play, storyline and visually :D

I'm playing Emerald currently. I've went through Hoenn so many times I kind of feel saturated right now, but I need Master balls and shiny cloned so I can transfer them to Platinum and forward. I do enjoy the game never the less. I'm at the Dewford town right now, 1 badge obtained.

Not at this very time, but I did play through both Fire Red and Ruby for my Ultimate Red Mono-Color. Both of them I never used any items in battle. The former I did a marathon with and beat in three days, liked the team I got to use. The latter had some annoying fights, but the final battles I kinda breezed through (except Drake). Even Steven wasn't very hard at all, but I had a Blaziken with Overheat. And my Level 51 Vileplume slammed his Claydol with SolarBeam in one hit, which was nice.

So I'll have to play them again for my Ultimate Wedlocke, but they're rather low on my priority list.

May someday resurface in full. We'll see what happens down the road!

I boot up Emerald every so often to play the Battle Factory. I've still never gotten the Gold Symbol in it, so I usually give the thing a try every other week. My goal is to beat the damn thing before 2015. I'd hate to still be stuck on that thing 10 years after the game came out.

I currently am not playing it, but I have a save file of Emerald lurking around my computer. I want to continue with it, but I can't seem to get it to work. A real shame it is too, seeing as I got extremely lucky and got Pokerus on it.

I'm in the midst of playing both FireRed(haven't beaten the Elite Four yet) and Emerald (I've beaten the Elite Four but for some reason haven't attempted anything at the Battle Frontier yet). And this is my second time playing FireRed.

I just picked up a LeafGreen run I'd abandoned late last year. I have six badges and I'm at One Island. It's a fire mono, so my team consists of Charizard, Vulpix, Flareon, Rapidash, Magmar, and Moltres.

I've ducked out of a playthrough of LeafGreen around Saffron City, not resetting the game in case I want to go back to it, but anyway currently using Emerald daily to migrate pokémon forward as a precaution as it's getting taken in to replace the internal battery soon :D

Playing Emerald (the usual), fiddling around with the Battle Frontier and breeding for the perfect killing machines.

That's great that you can get it professionally fixed. I did it myself and failed, and now there is a broken Crystal cartridge lying around. The physical Emerald I have has a dead internal battery, but it works fine save for the clock not working.
Go play Pokemon Theta Emerald EX!

Yeah, I was shocked. I live near a small town, where the only place you can get DVDs are supermarkets (so a selection of about 20 overall), yet I went on a sort of tech-shop treasure hunt (in about 5 shops, they told me to go to another one) and found a retro games shop :D
Sucks you broke your Crystal, I know how bad my soldering skills are so never even tried
