Which should I get?

[reqy]

I'm debating between Emerald and Sapphire (because i want a Kyogre) but I'd like to ask a few questions.

1. Are the new features/areas worth it for Emerald?
2. Which one seems to have the more trouble with, such as IB wearing out outta nowhere or glitches that seem to occur that can ruin the game?

Im buying one of them at the store and i don't plan on using cheat device to help minimize any thing wrong happening. Might get it after I finish leveling up my Skarmory and if I can catch a Chansey.

Thank you all in advance,
reqy

Try the advice thread. Emerald is the best though.

You can get Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza in Emerald and even thouhg I don't have it, all the extra stuff is way worth it.

 

[Wig]

Emerald, you can get Kyogre AND Groudon. Plus the extras are worth it.

-Jolt-

Emerald=R0X0RZ. 'nuff said.

[Aqua_Maiden]

Emerald is exactly the one you should get.Since you want a Kyogre get Emerald yopu can still catch it, along with Groudon and Rayquaza. Yes the new areas in Emerald are excellent and they are worth visiting. Sapphire is Emerald just without the Battle Frointer.

smeargle, mareep, groudon, choice of lati@s, ditto, synchronize, battle frontier, everstone breeding and corrected IV inheritance, cool extras for pickup, and MOVE TUTORS.

go emerald, definitely. and since you're buying it in the store, it's what? an extra 5 bucks?

EMERALD EMERALD EMERALD, emerald is a better version of ruby and sapphire, get emerald.

 

[i dont know 2 A.K.A. quilava lover]

saffire is way too easy emerald is harder because of the BF get emerald

 

[GoggleHead]

I would probably reccomend getting Emerald. I don't have it, but you get to go to more places (the Battle Frontier) and catch more Pokemon. I kinda wish I had it. Besides, Sapphire sucks!

 

[Nightcat]

he's right. I think everyone aggrees,
EMERALD ALL THE WAY!!!

yeah!

Emerald! Definataly Emerald! There are so many extras, I can't even count 'em all. Plus the text is a little neater, so that also makes another reason to get it.

-Manene out;manene;

 

[Nightcat]

Yeah, I hate the huge tall text of RS.

off topic: I AM OFFICIALLY CHANGING MY SIGNATURE! Because w3 a53 t3h 1337. wasn't cool anymore. Plus it was really hard to type fast. so anyway.

Individually, yes, Emerald is the best of the GBA games out there right now. They all have their specific pros, though. If you know someone else who has Emerald, you might consider getting Sapphire. That would give you something your friend doesn't have. Other than that, yeah, Emerald has lots of reasons to be the best. Oh yeah, and Ruby/Sapphire have a time glitch regarding berries that Emerald can fix permanently.

Reasons for Sapphire
* unique pokemon, as always
* more contest locations (Emerald has only one)
* flavor-wise, apparant loyalty to Team Magma (only heard about that)
* cooler clothes on your character

Yeah, not much there.

 

[xPokerusx]

Emerald like so many others have said.
Also nightcat why dont you just copy and paste.

 

[~Flareon~]

Emerald is the best version to get. Because you can catch the legendary Pokemons like Rayquaza, Groudon, Kyogre and more.

 

[idc47]

Emerald is better because there is more to do after you beat the Elite 4...also you can get both Groudon and Kyogre in Emerald.

 

[zeppelin]

get eremald.its much better.

 

[Spartan 37]

There is no question. Emerald is superior to S and R in every way.

 

[obada]

You can get all the legendary titans in emerald, and some jhoto pokemons too.
And dont forget the great addition which is the battle frontier.
The game is amazing.
