Your Preference

[LordOfTheEarth]

Hello,

I've been playing Em/Ru/Fr every now and then between my imported Pearl version mainly for pokemon transfers for the english version of D/P.
My question is...
What would you prefer more. The Lvl. 45 Groudon in Ruby, or the Lvl 70 (I think) in Emerald? I plan the IV & EV train that thing as well.

i don't mind i never keep the movesets given anyways but if i had to choose i would go for the level 45 one because i just like the raising factor involved

 

[Gilgamesh]

I would pick the level 70 groudon. Why would anybody want to train it 25 more levels than necessary?

 

[super groudon]

level 70 it already knows great attacks,
and it's got great stats

 

[LordOfTheEarth]

Alright.
The Lvl. 70 Groudon it is.

Thank you all,
Shane

Geez don't you remember for the R/B guide from like 8 years ago?

I believe it said something around "Raising a pokemon from a lower level results a stronger pokemon than one raised from a higher level"

Lvl 40 Groudon > Lvl 70 Groudon

I dont care i hate Groudon..

 

[Seviper]

It depends on the nature if you're planning to EV train one.

 

[LordOfTheEarth]

Hmm...Eh, I'll just get both then...

Shane

 

[super groudon]

if you get both then you can't really regret anything in the future so yeah it would be better now i think of it

The lv 70 Groudon in Emerald.

 

[Walking Contradiction]

The one who has a better nature and/or IV's

The problem is that it was in the R/B guide.
In the first gen, every Pokemon could max out "Stat Experience" (it's EV's now) for every stat. So, a higher level Pokemon probably didn't have the time to max out the stat exp. for every single stat.

level 45 groudon for ev training. just because the other one has a higher level doesnt mean its better. like what they said, pokemon trained from lower levels are stronger.

 

[JONNO.FRESH]

depends. The LV 70 Groudon doesnt have EQ iirc

 

[Kakashi-Sharingan Warrior]

depends if you want to use it in your team, or for show

if for your team: lv.45
if for show: lv.70

 

[Marche]

You should always try to get the lower level ones. They always seem to turn out stronger in the end.

 

[Pokemon_trainer_???]

Lv 45 then you can train it with a moveset picked by you

Lvl 40 Groudon > Lvl 70 Groudon

that just killed a part of my soul, please dont ever tell anybody that again. the only influence you can put on a pokemons stats are evs, the rest are set.

 

[Nabeel]

Use the level 40 groudon. don't make the mistake i did. I have been regretting it. Sure, level70 is strong, but when my friend got his level 40 to a hundred, my groudon lost to his.

 

[serebiimadness]

if your'e going to ev train it really doesnt matter which one you want to trade. id go with the 70 just cause id be too lazy to train it extra levels.
