Is it true that you can only get Seedot/Shiftry by trading it from Emerald?
So I just picked up my old copy of Sapphire (GBA) to work on completing the Pokedex. I'm only missing 2 Pokemon (Both Legendaries), Kyogre & Latios. I went to Origin Cave to catch Kyogre but he's not there. Does he spawn elsewhere after story completion or was it a one chance only thing & I now need to trade for him?
How can you tell for certain if an attack is normal or sp type?
So i have a Flygon on my team currently Level is 48 Moveset is
Before E4 I am thinking of making it learn Dragon Claw (I have the TM02), hyper beam will take long time to reach
Which should I remove Dragonbreath or Fly?
I am thinking of removing dragon breath But that would make me lose a Dragon move i was hoping i could have 2 but if i check the dragonbreath is only 60 power while even crunch and fly higher than that, I think its wise to remove dragonbreath...
Tho 2nd way I can go to move deleter remove fly Learn Dragon Claw Go to E4/Evergrande City Without using fly Then when after that either i can choose to learn fly again or maybe just have a different Pokemon for fly cuz E4 is defeated now it wont be so needed and I can change some Pokemon in my team.
So if I go for completion of regional dex i guess the only Pokemon left would be jirachi ? Is there someone else won't be obtainable ? Can i complete regional dex without jirachi?
I’m currently playing sapphire ROM v1.1on delta, when you don’t collect berry’s in time, And they start regrowing by themselves, shouldn’t you see the bulge in the dirt?
As I return to the soils i visited long ago I now how the option to replant new berry’s. And the berry’s I planted long ago are know long gone (apparently)
Anybody got some answers?
I plan on making my own cases for this and Ruby in a cassette case, and as such, will be cutting them down to size.
Just beat the elite 4 with my King's Rock team. When training my Pokemon early on (and playing thru most of the game) I kept 4-5 Zigzagoon in my party to exploit Pick Up. I would leave all but my 2 lowest level Pokemon in the PC so they'd stay around the same level. As a result I had 3 King's Rocks before the second gym. So I decided to go all in on King's Rocks and built my team around the fastest Pokemon I could since I can't get a flinch if the enemy goes first, I had enough King's Rocks for my entire team quickly enough. I just finished the elite 4, team was 48 except Medicham and Sharpedo who were 50. Ninjask saved the run when I realized his Dig was the only super effective move I had for Metagross, I was dominating the elite 4 up until Metagross who swept my whole team before I sent in the run saving Ninjask!
So if I’m shiny hunting Mudkip in Pokemon sapphire and I just freshly replaced my battery, my best bet is to just SR til I get it right?
In my current play 5 badges , at Route 111 I thought of catching a trapinch and I wanted a male one. I searched and keep encountering only females approximately 20 times Am i unlucky or is this a thing ..
I can't get a male one??
Brooo nooo 3 shiny pooches under odds?!?!?!? Anywaysss is anyone wlsw currently shiny hubting how are your hunts going?
I had a taillow on my team, and when I found the shiney I had to replace it lol
a little less charming 2nd time around but the hunt for treecko continues
Finally got to Regice for the first time and figured I'd do a lil shiny hunt on it. Wasn't planning on really grinding for it, was just gonna do it while my partner was finishing up a game they were playing. After 12 SRs the shiny boy appeared. This is my first full odds shiny I've ever caught and I'm beyond thrilled.
900ish resets in found the uncatchable shiny pooch. First shiny in gen 3
I’ve never beaten it I got stuck at Wallace in my last playthrough which when I reset over I forgot about my shiny spinda and the play through before that I got stuck on the ice elite four member
I got my cartridge battery replaced and am wondering if im doing the loop right to sr for shiny treecko. Since battery is no longer dry do i still need to vary the timing of my checks or s speed the name of the game now?
Hello everyone , im new to this space and to hoehn (i started playing in gen 4)and just had question very new to shiny hunting in this gen from what i gathered since my battery has run dry i should start a new save file every 150-200 sr's but i was wondering about the whole shiny frame thing. i dont wanna keep encountering same treecko How common is it to interact with the same one ? should i be making an active effort to wait different times to press A at different times ?
Local game shop got the pokemon coliseum disc thing on gamecube that gives you a Jirachi! I hopped on it quick.
I finally beat pokemon sapphire!, I honestly forgot to get a screenshot of my team, but it was Blaziken (lvl 60), Kyogre, (49 or 50), taillow, castform, zigzagoon (probably the reason I was able to get to the elite 4 in a way), and Machop (lvl 26-34). I was sweating Bullets as my under level Kyogre finished off Steven's claydol, and I was mortified because I thought I had to fight may again😭😭😭
Jetting water out of where?!
So, im trying to go back to dewford town, because I forgot to get the fishing rod. I went over to Britneys home, but he wasn't there, so I assumed I left him in slateport. And when I went to slateport, he wasn't there either! I need to get to dewford so I can get a water pokemon to use. Surf on, since I don't have any pokemon with surf yet
It has 0-4 atk IVS 😍 lovely
I only used moms I’ve never used before and it was a blast (except blaziken, I just used him cuz it’s my favorite of the hoenn starters)
2nd to last pokemon leveled up for E4. Actually still need to beat last gym but I knew getting shroomish to level 54 would be a chore. Also outside of my starter I’m doing a not used in E4 run.
