3rd Gen What was the hardest part of R/S/E when you started playing it?

In Emerald it has been catching a diverse group 0o;; My pokedex is only at 54!!! WTH??

-.-;; Can't seem to find anything other than common ones. Have to look harder after the E4 ^^
 
Probly Norman. I don't know why but even on my fourth or fifth time playing it I still have trouble with it. I barely defeated him with my Mahukita (sp?) on my current game. He was about Lv. 30 at the time.
 
Hmmm....I found Norman easier than a particular trainer that inhabited his gym. Can't remember which room though >.<;;

None of the Gyms were too hard except Liza and Tate for me.

When I first started to play Ruby, about three of the Gym Leaders was hard for me. Tate & Liza, Norman and Flannery. I think Flannery was hard was because I didn't really have the right Pokemon. A careless mistake by me. The wierd thing is that I've been playing Pokemon since about the time it came out over here. :confused:
 
Flannery gave me some trouble in Ruby too. Something about using Sceptile to beat her XD
 
Liza and Tate is hardest! Earthquake + Psychic!!! my pokemon can't stand long under their attacks! I spent lot of time to defeat them.
 
I had difficult finding most of the HM and I didn't know how to fish.
 
The maze wasn't *that* hard IMHO.

But I liked it better than the Ruby version. Emerald's was easier XD
 
those stupid f***ing slaking from normans gym the second time i played it, actually both times xD swampert beat tate and liza with surf xD
 
XD I trained up a Shark. Whatever those things are called. To beat her. Dark/water was the perfect combo XD
 
When I went against Flannery the first time, all I had was a Combusken, an Aron, and a Skarmory, so I had to shut my game off and turn it on again three or four times because of Torkoal. All my pokemon were male, and it would use Attract then Overheat on Aron and Skarmory then Body Slam on Combusken (which would ALWAYS paralyze it), and if I ever got it down to a few HP, Flannery would use Hyper Potion on it and defeat me. I have no idea how I finally won =/
 
I think the best think to do for Flannery is catch a magikarp and train it to a Gyrados. OHKO for each pokemon of hers I'd guess.
 
Hardest part in ruby? Probaly the elite four the first time I played all my pokemon were under-trained but that always happens to me when I play a new pokemon game and the fourth time I played through Ruby Drake was a little bit hard because the only pokemon that had an ice attack was Wailord with a nature that takes down special attack plus that my pokemon were under-trained again >_<.
 
Norman was the hardest in R/S, but in Emerald I had the most trouble against Liza and Tate. That Claydol was awful... x.x
Juan's Kingdra was pretty tough too. Especially since it has Double Team and Chesto Rest... x.x

Ya...Juan's kindra used double team x10 + kept resting x.x;;;

I had to restart and just keep blasting it with thunderbolt XD
 
I hate Steven's Metagross in Ruby. I can easily wipe out his other Pokemon, but Meteor Smash is an attack from hell. FROM HELL.

'Tis why I'm currently training a Metang.
 
Probably the beginning, suffering through training Ralts. o_o

Or the Electric gym leader, can't remember his name... I dunno why, everyone else was easy EXCEPT HIM.
