Spent the last few months debating on whether or not to buy emerald since I thought I gave it to my cousin when we were kids. Turns out I’ve had it all these years. When I loaded it up it said the battery was bad. Is that going to impact play much? Is it possible to change?

Having been playing this game for 10 years, this is the first time I know I can see the outside view from S.S TIDAL….

What in the world..?

I just used my rare candies to get him to level 57

Super happy, wanted to get this done before the RSE ports for the Switch came out! Hopefully I can get the Gold Shield from the Battle Tower next :)

Does anyone know how to get sceptiles mega stone in emerald?😃 any info is helpful been searching for hours!!!😔💔💔💔

In my guide I show how to guarantee a hardcore nuzlocke with at least 99% probability EVEN with absolutely horrible RNG and using guaranteed encounters.

The guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yr2rOzjEb2M

Ruleset:

-0 EV'S/IV'S every stat

-Mostly use mons that are guaranteed

-NO Setup

-Neutral natures only

TL:DR- The only fights with any kind of risk are Watson, Norman (to a lesser extent), and Elite 4, and they are like 1% failure rate at the very worst case scenario. EVERYTHING else is virtually 100% guaranteeable

I was trying to get my shroomish to level 10 by grinding in petalbug woods, and ended up finding a shiny one. I wasnt even trying to shiny hunt lol

What a beast! I'd forgotten Tentacruel could learn SD. It is singlehandedly sweeping the battle tower. Sets up against almost everything with ease.

When threatened by EQ, just switch to banded Flygon and usually the threat is dealt with.

Any advice on which mons my team might struggle against?

To me, the event islands in the game always had a sense of allure and charm to them, being remote islands that housed rare and ancient legendary pokemon such as Latios, Latias, Mew, etc.

To point out a specific example, I always felt a sense of wonder and intrigue when reading the signposts on Southern Island.

Who left them there? How did this individual arrive at the island to begin with? Was it all just sheer happenstance, perhaps?

My headcanon was that there was a mysterious caregiver or guardian trainer of sorts who used to care for Latios and Latias on the island every now and then, and who would travel to the island by boat to check in on them as part of their guardian trainer duties.

They left those messages on the island as their 'calling card' of sorts for any other trainers who happened to chance upon the island in their quest to capture Latios or Latias.

Either way, it's interesting to speculate about and just a random thought that popped in my head lately.

Who do you all think could be behind the cryptic messages left on Southern Island?

RNG’d for these guys on my 2 copies of emerald and my copy of sapphire. Impish Metagross might not be preferred but it’s something I can work with.

I should get bonus points for them all having different OT’s and done on physical cartridges though! lol

EV training this little guy. hatched it at 15 attack and EV training in attack and speed with hp of 4. max attack is 405 and speed is 328 and its looking like ill hit it! so excited to have another 100% EV trained mon in my Emerald version. I'm sure to hit the 405 attack but ill be off the 328 speed as its nature doesnt give the 10% boost to speed.
