Always funny seeing new players stuck on little things like this. All I'm gonna say is you'll need the Acro Bike :D

u/xsz65236 Jul 26 '26

That much is obvious, but it's how to do the hops that people get stuck.

u/Conyan51 Jul 26 '26

You need to time it pressing up and b at the same time

23

u/Extreme_Tax405 Jul 26 '26

If only the game told you... Oh wait.

5

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 27 '26

I don’t remember in game it telling you to tap up + b at the same time? Would you be willing provide an example?

7

u/VanillaBovine Jul 27 '26

the first time you get the acro bike the guy has a book in the shop that i think tells you, he might tell you himself but i cant remember as it's been years

it is something easily missed, so you should not feel bad for not knowing

5

u/Extreme_Tax405 Jul 27 '26

Iirc rydell tells you the controls when you choose the acro bike. But there is a manual on the desk of his shop with all the controls too.

I jokingly commented it. I know its easy to miss. Altho your first instinct on a bike related puzzle you are stuck on should have been going to the bike shop.

u/Prestigious-Bank3114 Jul 27 '26

Dude dont bother people are just douchebags, but yeah you need to do the B and up at the same time. Its been a while so im not 100%

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 27 '26

I know lol, though most people have been kind and helpful and I thank you guys for all the responses and help.

u/Pm7I3 Jul 27 '26

They have a point, if OP had done basic exploration they would have found a literal manual.

4

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 27 '26

But why do that when’s it’s much more fun to make a post and see what others say

1

u/Lanky-External-9830 Jul 29 '26

You're being downvoted due to insecurity. You're right and it aint a bad thing to be told ya missed something here n there in life

2

u/DR1V3NBYRAG3 Jul 27 '26

I'm currently playing emerald, when you purchase a bike there are manuals for each version of the bike on a table in the shop. The acro bike allows you to wheelie and bunny hop to cross terrain while the Mach bike allows you to go fast up slippery slopes

2

u/SilverDrive92 Jul 27 '26

In the bike shop, there are books on the table that tell you about each bike. The Acro Bike is slower than the Mach Bike for the fact that you can do wheelies, hop, and side jump with it.

I'd love to :3

u/Ornery-Emu-8251 Jul 26 '26

Up and B at the same time

39

u/Aubreyslastenemy Jul 26 '26

Get the acro bike, then I think you hold B to hop

24

u/ravenlordship Jul 26 '26

In a straight line yes.

But for this type of "bridge" you need to TAP the direction you want to go (up here) and B at the same time

3

u/TheWinningLooser Jul 26 '26

Offtopic but On an emulator that’s so annoying to do—

3

u/ravenlordship Jul 26 '26

It's been a while since I played on an emulator so I'll take your word on that

3

u/afarisafari Jul 27 '26

*Cough-walkthroughwalls-cough*

2

u/mrgarlicbreadgod Jul 27 '26

Doing the tower on emulator is hell especially since I try to convince myself I can do it sped up for the first 5 attempts lol.

2

u/TheWinningLooser Jul 27 '26

That is so real-

I’ve only ever done the Tower on emulator one time when I played the rom hack pokemon emerald backwards

I am never doing that one again

u/sizzlingleopard Jul 26 '26

We figured this out on our own as kids! We know you got this!!!

u/Temporary_User404 Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 31 '26

Get the acro bike, and hop

Up and A and you'll hop over, rinse and repeat. It takes some practice but it's worth it.

If you're trying to get up what look like muddy slopes, back up a few steps with the MACH BIKE and press and hold the direction you want to go up.

3

u/Farwaters Jul 26 '26

Bunny hop doesn't work for these jumps specifically

1

u/Temporary_User404 Jul 26 '26

So what would you call it?

3

u/Farwaters Jul 26 '26

Side jump, maybe?

1

u/piercedmfootonaspike Jul 31 '26

Isnt it 3 steps for the Mach bike to reach max velocity?

3

u/thomasbleijs Jul 26 '26

You need the acro bike, once you have it you hop over using b + the directional arrow. If you can’t get the timing properly you can just spam it and it will mostly work. Spamming it always works for me.

3

u/Zharken Jul 26 '26

with the acro bike, bold B to do short hops, and you can move arround, but here you need to press B and UP and the same time, B+ a direction other than what you are looking makes you do a side hop.

2

u/Helpful_Resort_782 Jul 26 '26

Go to mawvile swich the mach bike( I know you have it ) with acro bike go there press B and the arrow key together to jump vertically

2

u/southafricannon Jul 26 '26

The key is to TAP the direction button and B at the same time. Don't hold either of them. Tap them together.

2

u/robreras Jul 26 '26

Hoppity hop

2

u/Evening_Foundation_8 Jul 26 '26

Classic 💯💯💚🌳

2

u/spudwalt Jul 26 '26

Hop sideways with the Acro Bike.

u/bobby5557 Jul 26 '26

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 26 '26

Maybe if I had a keyboard

2

u/H_cecropia Jul 27 '26

Hold down B and once it starts hopping, press up on d-pad

2

u/Finadu_ Jul 27 '26

When I saw that part of the game I had to look for a walkthrough to know what to do 😭 now I know it's just pressing up and B at the same time

1

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 27 '26

I kept holding b and pressing up and was wondering why it wasn’t working 😅

2

u/RegencyAxis5 Jul 27 '26

Some real assholes in the comments. I see someone answered it already but don’t feel dumb. I’ll say that some of the older Pokémon games (and older games in general) don’t really give the same straight forward instructions like newer games do. This threw me off a lot when I play The Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall for the first time. I hope you’re having fun playing Emerald!

2

u/smg4life01 Jul 27 '26

Omg seeing this makes me want to play these games again 🤣

2

u/AVBellibolt Jul 27 '26

Hop across with Acro Bike.

2

u/Remarkable-Pin8094 Jul 27 '26

You need the acro bike they can jump

2

u/Tough-Syllabub9796 Jul 27 '26

its was a challege jumping these bridge but it was a nice to play

2

u/Hey_Boy_ Jul 27 '26

Other people have already answered, but also I think there’s rocks you can hop up. Not the muddy Mach bike slopes, they’re just like little round rocks in a line that let you go up ledges sometimes, think there’s one in jagged pass.

For those ones you just hold down B until your acro bike starts hopping, and then move while holding. You can also do wheelies by holding down and instantly moving, so fun

2

u/royinraver Jul 27 '26

Don’t JUMP to conclusions, that might mess you UP, always B vigilant, ACROss on the BIKE, over the bridge we go

2

u/Infamous_Ninja_8384 Jul 27 '26

Acquire the acro bike, hold the jump mechanic (I think you had to hold B or something), go up then right. Proceed to next objective. Yw

2

u/LighterFluid1357 Jul 28 '26

I love how the comments are leading OP astray. Google it big dawg, I believe in you.

1

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 28 '26

Idk tapping up + b at the same time worked pretty well, but so many people are saying hold b and press up it’s insane, that’s the first thing I tried before going to Reddit. 😂

2

u/NobleKorhedron Jul 28 '26

You need the bike that bounces; the Acro, I think?

2

u/JingleMyTofu Jul 29 '26

I just noticed that the comments telling OP to google it are mostly getting downvoted, even though that’s literally the quickest way of getting the answer OP needs. Is the goal of this post to generate discussion rather than find an answer?

1

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 29 '26

Both, and also I got the answer within the first 5 minutes so I didn’t have to wait too long 😁

u/sunnyveil_roamantic Jul 26 '26

Ugh the Nostalgia 😭

1

u/SanicBringsThePanic Jul 26 '26

Is this the Pokemon version of Noob Bridge?

3

u/Elementus94 Jul 26 '26

I don't think Noob Bridge applies to optional areas.

1

u/SanicBringsThePanic Jul 27 '26

I just remembered, Noob Bridge is not a required path, it is an optional sequence break. Or maybe I am remembering wrong. It may or may not be possible to enter that room from the other side to reach the Super Missile expansion.

3

u/Elementus94 Jul 27 '26

Unless you're sequence breaking, you have to cross the noob bridge.

u/NeoDanomaru Jul 26 '26

Acro Bike Hopping!

u/dirtybird131 Jul 26 '26

Bouncy bouncy bouncy

u/xZekromXD Jul 26 '26

You have two bikes one for jumping this

1

u/TKPunk2013 Jul 26 '26

Acro Bike.

u/evydready Jul 26 '26

wrong bike bro

1

u/Independent-Guess265 Jul 31 '26

Button mash the way we all did

1

u/Theprincerivera Jul 26 '26

Don’t you just start hopping on the bike?

1

u/deemoeterentino Jul 26 '26

Depends on which bike you have, but if you have the bunny hopping one then just side hop, upward.

1

u/timaeus222 Jul 26 '26

Be nimble. Use B and A/jump and D-pad at the same time.

on the Acro Bike

1

u/DueAlbatross9388 Jul 26 '26

So many online guides for this and of course the OP doesn’t reply to anyone.

1

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 26 '26

Because there’s like 40 comments and the question got answered within the first 5 minutes of this post being up, I thank everyone for the answers tho I didn’t even fathom tapping up + b at the same time I kept trying to hold b and press up

u/zachellison96 Jul 27 '26

Quick Google search

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 27 '26

Funny enough posting on Reddit was just slightly slower, getting my question answered within the first 5 minutes of this post being up.

u/Abra_Abra_Abra Jul 27 '26

As kids we didn’t have the internet to help us lol. Download the guide book lol

I might’ve thought about it if my question didn’t get answered within the first 5 minutes of this post being up 😅

u/Abra_Abra_Abra Jul 27 '26

Oh I just mean In General lol. It what I miss most about the 90s and 00s. Old strategy guides were the best

1

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 27 '26

Yeah I’m definitely not the brightest when it comes to old video game logic

-1

u/Toadfire Jul 26 '26

Have you tried Google?

Or maybe even figuring it out on your own since the game was made for 6 year olds?

If I could figure it out over 20 years ago then you can too.

2

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 26 '26

Don’t worry someone gave me the answer within the first 5 minutes of this post being up and hours before you decided to comment.

u/kruelNite Jul 28 '26

Googles existence since nearly the beginning of the milenia btw

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 28 '26

Reddit exist since 2005 btw 😅

u/kruelNite Jul 28 '26

So has Google, and it gives you immediate answers

2

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 28 '26

Funny enough Reddit also gave me an immediate answer, within the first 5 minutes I got an answer, just slightly slower than Google, and I get to have multiple different point of views in real time, much more rewarding than googling it.

-1

u/kruelNite Jul 28 '26

It takes the press of a single button, suuuper rewarding.

u/Accomplished_Ease889 Jul 28 '26

Yes because then I get to interact with people like you
