  • Never

    Have never been there. I tried for months every day, day and night. I gave up, but recently found the mirage island. Once I stepped on it, the game freezed. It was a sign from above sent to me that said the island was pointless.

  • Looking over this conversation made me want to try to get to Mirage Island today. Since I traded most of my pokemon over to other games, I knew I wasn't gonna find it. Oh well, brought back a few old memories.

  • Throughout my years of playing and traveling through Hoenn, sadly no. I remember everyday in the 5th grade I would go to Pacifidlog Town to that old mans house to check and see if he sees the island. Ugh I was so frustrated with him and Mirage Island.

  • I learned about the mirage island shortly after the release of Emerald, actually... I was so psyched about it! The thought of a disappearing island was so cool!
    So I tried for a LONG period of time to get there, checking that old man everyday, being disappointed when he always said no, but you know...
    From what I read in these post, the experience isn't all that rewarding.
    Gamefreak nearly got this right. :c
    I mean, Liechi berries and level 50 Wynauts are sweet, but they could've added a lot more to make the place more enjoyable. >.< They could have added a cave, an event, cooler Pokemon... D;
    This is something they really need to recreate. Too late for Black and White, though... An Island only appearing to the lucky... Holding some kind of a legendary on it, or heck, an island with every single berry on it!! That would be friggin' awesome!!

  • I've gotten to mirage island once back in 2006 in my Emerald version. I nearly had a heart attack when the guy said he could see mirage island today. I was disappointed when I got there because all you can do is catch a bunch of Wynaut and get some berries. The Island itself is not impressive in any way.

  • i got lucky

    I got really lucky cause I GOT TO MIRAGE ISLAND TWO TIMES IN A ROW!!!!!!!
    :shocked::shocked::shocked:
    Seroiusly, I'm not kidding.

    I found it the first time with luck, then I checked back the next day, and the old man saw it again.

    Cool huh?

  • I never got the point. After finally getting Emerald, I realised that you can get a Wynaut from the Old Lady in a town (I forget which one) and the only other thing there is a Liechi berry. I'm glad I didn't waste my life getting there, as on Heartgold I now have 20 Liechi berries attached to Pokemon from Wi-fi events. Thanks, Nintendo!

  • I went there once. I didn't realize it was so rare until just now. I was pretty happy about it because the old man finally said he saw it.

  • I like the idea of a secret island that appears randomly but there wasn't much to do there. Hopefully in the hoenn remakes they add some more stuff on mirage island.
