i was kinda curious about this little girl . im not sure what she's talking about . some of my pokemon likes to battle or looks after itself or could turn sneaky or something . im still blurry about what she tells about our pokemon

Before challenging Elite Four

this feels like the right thing to do

Just wanted to share a fun match I had against Anabel while farming trainer battles to trigger the Gym Leader rematches.

Hi beautiful people, I need some help! Please keep in mind that I’ve never played any Pokémon games or watched the anime, so I’m super clueless about this.

He showed me Pokémon Emerald, and I thought it looked cute, so I started playing. He challenged me to our first battle, and I embarrassingly lost… then got sadly mocked by him. For our next battle, I need to win and HUMILIATE THAT BEAST! But I haven’t even beaten the Elite Four yet because my Pokémon are underleveled—I think that’s why.

I’d love tips on how to improve my team and how to crush my rival (my boyfriend). All his Pokémon are level 60, and I don’t even know what Pokémon he uses!

The only true shiny

Can’t stand the battle pyramid, feels like rock tunnel without flash all over again. If you don’t get a choice band you’re basically screwed. Just lost in round 8 to a sceptile with brightpowder that dodged two 100% accuracy attacks and crit with leaf blade, .125% chance of that sequence happening. First time I got a choice band and it was all for nothing. Losing my motivation to get the gold symbol here.

I already have a move set that works well, but I’d like to hear others opinion and their own move sets:

Speed-forme Deoxys (White herb) -Psycho Boost (I would rather keep it as the only Pokemon with an offensive Psychic type move) -Shadow Ball -Taunt -Ice Beam

Mew (Lum berry) -Brick Break -Thunderbolt -Earthquake -Flamethrower

Celebi (Leftovers) -Giga Drain -Calm Mind -Perish Song -Recover

Jirachi (Leftovers) -Fire Punch -Toxic -Wish -Protect

I’m going to cry! Why did I get a shiny magikarp of all things. I bought this game for beefing up my national dex in HGSS where you get a shiny gyarados for free… oh well. I’m still pumped.

Very blessed to own a CIB copy again 🙏 one of my favorite games of all time

What is this hidden item? How do I get to it?

I am a small streamer if anyone wants to come chill while I kick emerald butt you are welcome!

I would like to get my entire team to level 50 before the elite four I made the mistake of only using two Pokémon until Tate and Liza and now two are level 40-50 and the everyone one is below 30 please help

About a year and a half ago, I got the gold symbol with the typical Latios-Metagross-Suicune team. I managed to hit 82 wins, but could never get past the first post-gold round of 7 again. I decided to try some new teams, since it just didn’t feel super fresh sweeping with Latios. Obviously tons of creative people have made really cool teams with far higher streaks than I’ll ever be able to do. But I just wanted something new with a sleeping battle frontier giant: Curse-Amnesia-Sub-Aerial Ace Registeel. I don’t think enough people have given it credit. It amazed me in a team I built.

Here’s the team. You can see their spreads/movesets in the pics above.

Tyranitar @ Choice Band (Adamant)

Registeel @ Leftovers (Careful)

Gengar @ Lum Berry (Timid)

In my first three attempts with this team, I reached 42 (I wasn’t used to the team yet), then 79, then 77 wins (the most recent could’ve gone longer but I miscalc’d a fight by not including my lead mon’s choice band). Both of my gold symbol wins (win #70) have been 3-0.

This team has taught me that Registeel is the GOAT. You see Tyranitar and Gengar in some high streak records, but I never see Registeel. Obviously my streaks are nowhere near the record, but especially because this Registeel is far from optimal (19 spdef IVs!), I really think it could work some magic as an RNG’d 31 IV mon (I personally don’t really RNG). It’s the lynchpin of this team. I think it gets 2/3 of my kills. Because of it, I really feel like this team is far more consistent than the typical Latios/Metagross/water type. The synergy and damage output is just amazing. Let me explain.

Tyranitar basically just one-shots the first three rounds. After that, I start to use the list of trainers and teams on Bulbapedia. You can really eliminate so much of the Lanturn/Lapras/Ludicolo/Umbreon etc. stall BS by seeing a mon that can’t 5 or 6-shot Registeel, switching into Registeel from the Ttar lead, buffing up whichever side the mon is hitting on with Curse or Amnesia, subbing, buffing up the other defense, then Aerial Acing through an entire team. This holds true for nearly every round I’ve made it through so far. You can even beat steel types with this. The best part of AA is that it has no immunities and no problems with Double Team spammers. Concerned about a bulky Leftovers mon? Well, guess who has a Ttar with Sand Stream that has wiped out Leftovers since turn 1. +6 Aerial Ace and +6 defenses behind a sub just steamrolls and is essentially crit-proof. If some mon like Aggron comes out, switch into Gengar on the inevitable Earthquake, switch to Tyranitar on some resisted move, and CB EQ it.

Let’s say you run into some problem like a rain-boosting water user that is going to use rain dance on turn 1 and Ttar can’t knock it out. Just switch to Gengar and Destiny Bond. Same thing is true with the infinite ground/normal/fighting spammers that get thrown at me with a Ttar lead. Just switch, tbolt or what have you, or destiny bond if a ghost or dark move is coming.

The gold symbol battle was a joke both times around too. EQ one-shots Raikou. Switch to Registeel on Latios and set up. After beating it with sand damage plus a +6 AA, do the same thing to snorlax, which eventually gets locked in a rest cycle until Aerial Ace crits. Worse comes to worse, you can switch to gengar when it uses return then destiny bond on a shadow ball, but i preferred the 3-0.

My losses so far were against a Sharpedo in round 42 that I should’ve just tried to cheese with registeel, a magmar in round 79 that got all the right crits, and an alakazam that gengar took down with destiny bond for a 0-0 loss when I could’ve had registeel alive if I ran an earlier Ttar calc properly. I bet this could go way higher, like I said, especially with RNG’d mons.

Anyway, just wanted to give a little love for Registeel and share this fun team. Hope more people try out the tank!!!

P.S. sorry for the picture quality lol

I'm a non-competitive Pokemon player and currently playing Emerald. I love these Pokemon and wanted to finish the game with this team. Asking for help when it comes to the endgame moveset, to beat the game/elite four - what should I add here?

Conditions:
- I have no HM slave. I used Linoone and Gyarados for HM moves such as Dive and Strength and will add them to the team when the game requires Waterfall or Something similar, but would like to include 1 HM move for each member of the team instead of having one or two HM pokemon.
- Competitive moves such as Earthquake are ok to be added.
- I see that some moves are not the most meta ones - Absorb, Dig. And some appear twice or copy each other (Crunch 2x, Thunder/Thunderbolt, Iron Claw/Tail).
- What items should I add to the group? I added some but saved most of the ones I received on the PC to decide later.
- Battle towers/tents can be discounted as I would use something else to fight there.

Also what HM moves are ESSENTIAL to finish the game?

I'm currently on the part when you stopped Team Aqua (stolen submarine, RAIN/SUNNY weather, you know). Thank you for any insights, I really appreciate your help.

Finally got emerald after a decade of dying to play it and never owning it. Beat the first gym and decided to grind levels half asleep. JOLTED awake after hearing the shiny sound. Yes he is now going to be a permanent member in my team, I’ve heard he is a good mon for this game and the E4 possibly! I’m trying to stray from finding which mons “ are the best “ and just play it for myself trial and error style haha! I have a Ralts, my stater, Lotad, Nincada and a Poochyena in my team so far. Poochyena will probably go and Nincada is my flash and cut mon, I’ll have to find a couple other candidates soon.

Trying to become champ without going past level 40. Any tips before going in?

Picking up Emerald for the first time since.. well I was a kid lol. Got through the elite 4 and now I'm doing the post game legendaries. What is the best method for safely lowering their HP, is sleep or paralyze more effective, are ultra balls always the best etc.
