[amittal12]

I have won five badges and recently arrived in Fortree City and saved the game.The Aqua Admin Shelly was pretty easy but that's usually the case with villaneous team leaders.May was very very very easy.My Gardevoir obliterated her full team alone.God swear she is the easiest rival ever.

[amittal12]

I went to Route 120 and got the Devon Scope from Steven and also battled some trainer during the process.Then I went and defeated all the trainers in the Fortree Gym.Winnona was easy to defeat.Camerupt defeated Swablu with one Rock Slide and didn't take any damage.Camerupt survived a Water gun from Pelipper and damaged it greatly with Rock Slide but it couldn't survive the second one and was defeated.Gardevoir used Thunderbolt to defeat it.Tropius damaged Gardevoir a little with Sunny Day and then Solar Beam,but it was defeated with two Psychic.Gardevoir defeated Skarmory with Thunderbolt although Winnona kept using Hyper Potions when its HP got down to red but eventually it was defeated.Gardevoir had a little less than half its HP left and was facing her final Pokemon,Altaria.He used Psychic and took out about half its HP and took some damage from Earthquake.But unfortunately the next Psychic missed due to his accuracy falling due to Skarmory's Sand Attack and he was defeated with another Earthquake.But Tentacruel finished her remaining HP with Ice Beam.I got the Feather Badge and saved the game.

[snivy trainer]

I was bored, so I restarted Emerald.

I started my journey as SnivyTR, and went and met the neighbours. I saw Prof. Birch getting attacked by a Zigzagoon. After about 30 minutes of painful thinking, I chose my starter- Torchic, who has a horrible Sassy nature, but I'll stick with it. I beat that Pokemon, and May and Mudkip, and got my Pokedex and Poke Balls. I spent an hour and a half trying to catch a Ralts and a Seedot. I got through that part of the game until I got to Rustboro gym, where I temporarily boxed Ralts and evovled my Seedot and Torchic (they do have nicknames) for the gym. Nuzleaf then beat Roxanne. I then saved.

On the hunt for trying to catch Feebas. Had the game since release and still nothing .__.

Any tips?

On the hunt for trying to catch Feebas. Had the game since release and still nothing .__.

Any tips?

Feebas is only found on six different tiles on the entire route. So check each tile that you can surf on about 2-3 times at most. They should be extremely common on the tiles they can be found.

 

[SolidWolverine]

Started playing my old save on emerald about a week ago. Raised a new team to use in the battle frontier, went to the Battle Tower and got on a 34 win-streak and then took on the frontier brain. I lost to her but came really close.

Even more recently(yesterday), I caught my first shiny pokemon on this particular game(my other shinys were 2nd&4th gen). After a very long search I caught a shiny Feebas

 

[amittal12]

I checked out all the places in Lilycove city.I swept my rival May with just my Swellow.She couldn't have got any easier.Swellow defeated Tropius with two Fly attacks taking very little damage from its Stomp.It defeated her Pelipper with two Return attacks but was confused by supersonic.Despite confusion,it OHKOed both Combusken and Ludicolo with Fly.I then flew to Lavaridge Town and since I needed streength inside the Magma Hideout,I had to box one Pokemon.I boxed Swellow since it was higher level than my other team members due to the Rival fight.I defeated all the Magma grunts easily.I battled Magma Admin Tabitha and my Sceptile swept his team.It defeated Numel with one Leaf Blade.Zubat was defeated by Screech and Quick Attack combination.Mightyena and Camerupt were taken by one and two Leaf Blade attacks respectively.I then went and battled Maxie and this time my Tentacruel swept him.It defeated Mightyena with three Surf attacks.It OHKOed Camerupt with a Surf.It's Ice Beam froze Crobat.He used Super Potion and i used Ice Beam again.One more Ice beam and he was defeated.The funny part in my exploring of Magma Hideout was that I kept looking for the Master Ball not realising this was Emerald not Ruby.

Ahh okay, wasn't aware of that! Appreciate the tip Gustavo!

Just one more question.... are these 6 tiles randomly generated whenever you re-enter route 119? I ask because I've tried absolutely every method in order to catch a Feebas. I went through practically every single tile on the water-route and fished for about 3-4 tries with every rod avaiable.

Patience is a virtue I guess.......

 

[amittal12]

I went to Slateport and found that Team Aqua had stolen Captain Stern's Submarine.I went though Aqua Hideout defeating all the trainers.Aqua Admin Matt was surprisingly more tougher than Magma Admin and Leader.But overall he was quite easy.His Mightyena raised Aron's attack and confused it with Swagger which made it hurt itself in its confusion.It used Roar on Aron and Camerupt was dragged out.Camerupt used Earthquake to do damage to Mightyena.He used Super Potion.Camerupt used another Earthquake and it was defeated.Camerupt was defeated by a Critical Hit from Golbat's Wing Attack.Aron used Rollout defeating Golbat with his second Rollout and didn't take much damage from its Bite attacks.I also got the Master Ball.Then I went to Route 124 defeating all the trainers and arrived in Mossdeep City.I flew to Slateport City to go to Trick House but this time the puzzle was boring.After completing it I saved the game.
