    Have you ever kept dousing yourself with repels to keep going down Route 113 in Hoenn to collect a bunch of Volcanic ash to get those special items made by Glass Workshop?

    And how long did it take you before you were sick of it?
    All that pacing, back and forth, covering yourself with ash and being cold... so, coooooolllllllldddddddd.....

    All those Spinda, Skarmory... the occasional Sandshrew... and Slugma exclusive to Emerald... so... coooooolllllllllldddddddddd.....

    er, right.
    So, how was collecting ash for you?
     
    I went through there once on the way to Fallabar (spelled wrong I know sorry)
    never went back hated it hate Spinda can't stand the place just my opinion
     
    I collected a little bit of ash, made it into a flute (can't remember which one) and got out of there really fast. But that was my reaction to Hoenn in general.
     
    If I'm there and want the Black Flute, I always grind there instead of walking with Repels. Since Spinda is so extremely common at that place, it's a paradise for things that need Sp.A EVs, even though I never do any serious EV training, I still utilize this quite often.
     
    I used it for Special Attack EV training only. The ash items (like Ash the anime character) aren't worth my time or effort. But with all the EV training I used to do there I might have enough ash for something. Now where did I put my Emerald...?
     
    I think I seriously started collecting ash for the pretty chair and desk in my last playthrough of Sapphire. I repelled myself and wandered about for a good while... and for some reason it didn't bother me at all. o_o *freak*

    I didn't get enough ash, but as far as I'm concerned, I have all the time in the world to go ash-collecting now that I've beaten the Elite Four.
     
    I'm another one of those Spinda killers. One would think they would/should be exinct and be a fossil in the near years of the future given how hideously common they are.
     
    Meh it dident bother me much cuz i just make the flute that wakes up your pokemon, and then i usealy get outer there
     
    To be honest I never tried to collect ash. I think MAYBE once but I didn't get anywhere. Maybe on my next run through I will.

    I guess I'm a freak as well. On my first playthrough in Sapphire when I was about 8 years old, I actually saved up enough ash for the pretty chair and desk. If I remember correctly, I think I also got enough ash to get at least one of each of the flutes. I guess I was really patient.

    I don't think I have that patience anymore. Actually, wait. I know that I'm not patient enough anymore.
     
    Dude I hated that place, I personally think it is not only the ugliest place in RSE but that the pokemon there are also the ugliest ones in RSE. Gawrd I remember trying to get everything on that damned list, I spent at least a good 20 hours total in that one place... pacing back and fort, back... and then forth.... then back again. Freagin items weren't even worth it.
     
    Insert random filler here.

    I actually train there for a long time anyway, so I end up with a lot of ash. I need a Blue, Red, and Yellow Flute before I advance. But that's just me.
     
    Yeah, I'd run around there for a while and get ash, but I never got anything more than the first few flutes. I mainly went there because I loved the music.
