  • Ruby/Sapphire.

    Emerald was only good for the additions, such as the Battle Frontier and Extra Events (It's not like many were even used, anyway)
    Plus, it is a terrible game to hunt shinies in.
    And it's much simpler in R/S.
    I really don't feel like pointing out all of the similarities and differences right now.

  • I prefer Ruby/Sapphire due to the lower level of Groudon/Kyogre.
    Essentially the same game, I only use Emerald for breeding and item collection (Butterfree's Compoundeyes + Thief).

    And Battle Frontier annoys me as well.

    Emerald has a broken RNG which makes it ridiculously easy to catch shinies and breed amazing Pokémon :P
    So Emerald it is.

    THIS.

    I recently figured out how to abuse the RNG as well since there is two threads at Smogon for this. Since I caught all of the legends before discovering this, I tested it out with the event ones. Caught a Shiny Southern Island Latios with a few soft resets. Gonna restart my game sometime to find a decent ID and Secret ID number that can give me good shines along with decent IVs.

    Hello there. I have just been wondering how to battle sudowoodo in pokemon emerald. When I talk to the tree (sudowoodo), all it does is shake around. Can someone tell me how to battle sudowoodo?

    You need to use the Wailmer Pail on it (like in G/S/C, where you use the Squirtbottle instead). This is not really the place to ask, though...
