My First Shiny!

I have been playing pokemon since I was 6. I'm 28 now. My first game was fire red, then I got sapphire, then pearl, heartgold, and stopped at black 9 years ago. I have NEVER run into a shiny poKemon.

Recently I decided to bust out pokemon sapphire for the nostalgia of it and I FINALLY naturally ran into a shiny tentacool near sootopolis city. I can't believe it took me this long. I had to tell somebody. It only took me 22 years.

Good Fire and Water types for a Treeko run in ALPHA Sapphire?

As stated above, I’m playing Alpha Sapphire, and will be doing a Treeko run, and I need suggestions for good all-around Fire type and good all-around Water type Pokemon. Treeko is a Toxic-Strat Mon this run, and I normally run either Mudkip or Torchic.

Shiny hunting Feebas ✨

Hey all, I’m currently shiny hunting Feebas with an original Sapphire cartridge that has a dead internal battery so the tiles don’t change (thankfully). Any tips for me? I currently have Lileep with the suction cups ability in the first slot, using the old rod (so you hook the pokemon on the first bite), and have located a Feebas tile. Anything else to increase shiny odds in gen 3 besides chain fishing? If you’ve caught one, how many encounters/hours did it take you? 🙂

Anyone else notice these tiles?

I've been playing R/S/E a lot this year and just noticed these two tiles that I can't walk on and silph scope doesn't activate. This is on Sapphire and the tiles are directly in front of the character sprite and the one below it. Area is between the safari zone and Mossdeep.

NEW - Hidden Power probability calculator

I've just written some code to help find the perfect Pokemon in the gen 3 games. The app takes in the parents IV's and shows how likely the child will have each hidden power type. The app also shows the probability of getting the max damage and allows for customisations like nature and minimum IV's.

Can you catch Seedot on Pokémon Sapphire?

Is it true that you can only get Seedot/Shiftry by trading it from Emerald?

Respawn Kyogre?

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?

My flygon movesets discussion

So i have a Flygon on my team currently Level is 48 Moveset is

  • Crunch
  • Dragonbreath
  • Fly
  • Steel Wing

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.

King's Rock Elite 4

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!
