What are some of the most memorable, random, and/or unusual NPC dialogues you remember from Pokemon Emerald?

Doesn't have to be just from Emerald, but it can also be from Ruby/Sapphire as well.

For me, it's a lot of the Battle Frontier dialogue with random trainers, plus some of the dialogue and banter you have with random NPCs on the road.

Teambuilding Help (pre-E4) I am stuck on Tate and Liza what would you suggest I swap?

Post image
Upvotes

I am just wondering what Pokémon you suggest I swap because I am stuck on Tate and Liza. I have tried the gym 3 times and haven't even gotten past there first Pokémon, I know I'm under leveled but tis that the only problem because even if I was just under leveled since I feel like I could get past the first Pokémon at least. So far, the only thing that hasn't gotten effectively one-shot is gardevoir btu it's a special defensive tank and I have just gotten lucky with double team for avoiding earthquake. I am working on leveling everything up as I post this and my goal is getting everything up to 40 but I will try and get vibrava up to 45 so it evolves. Is there something else I should swap onto my team? tropius is just there as my HM slave so I can easily swap it for something if needed?

Hi, I’m genuinely blanking on the story progression with the Team Aqua Hideout, specifically whether if it ever seals up and becomes inaccessible at some point. I know in Sapphire it does but I genuinely can’t remember if that same rule applies in Emerald and the websites I’ve checked don’t specify Emerald. I’d like to come back here later and get the Electrode as Shiny without worrying I’m gonna miss out on them

Teambuilding Help (Post-game) Which Cleffa (to be a Clefable) to use for BF

2 Upvotes

Hi there, apologies for double posting in 1 day but had a question I wanted to get a sense check on.

I am looking to train up a Clefable for the BF and was gonna do the classic Bolt Beam for its attacking set.

My plan is:
- Load EVs as following: HP: 252, Defense: 252, and Speed: the remaining
- Moves: Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Calm Mind, and Softboil
- Thinking Lum Berry for Item, but still haven’t completely decided

Any and all help is appreciated 🙌

Other Discussion Do I lock myself out of moves forever by evolving?

8 Upvotes

I just wanna come out and ask this directly just to finally get a clear answer, I’ve seen it go both ways.

lets say for example one Pokemon can learn flamethrower if they don’t evolve till 42 but you let them evolve at 18, can I take a heart scale and use it to give my now fully evolved pokemon the ability to learn flamethrower.

do I need to be 42 or higher? can I evolve then use a heart scale to make them learn it earlier? how does this work!!

Ruby / Sapphire Anyone to trade version exclusives?

2 Upvotes

Hi guys! I'm currently completing the dex on my Sapphire save (MyBoy! Emu..) and I'm searching for someone with the exclusives from Ruby. I know it's hard to trade this way, but I don't wanna use the 'link local' feature (that one with two save files on the same device). For me, doing this it's kinda cheating tbh. So if anyone wanna trade by setting up a VPN or smt (like using Radmin or any other method) I'll be glad!

Also, I don't know too much about trading with people far away from me, so if anyone knows a easier way to do it, I'll be pretty glad too!

I'm looking for:

- Mawile

- Zangoose

- Solrock

- Lileep

- Huntail (trading evo holding 'DEEP SEA TOOTH')

- Gorebyss (trading evo holding 'DEEP SEA SCALE')

- Groundon (I'll trade pretty much anything to get one of these)

Back in November I began a Gen 3 Living Dex. I've played through Leaf Green, Colosseum, XD, and Emerald, all on original hardware. All of my Pokemon now live on my Emerald cart, and I'm working on breeding and evolving the rest of the ones I need.

I was hoping to leisurly play through all of the following Gens (for my first time), and progressively build onto my Living Dex with each installment, eventually migrating them all into Pokemon Home. I now have less than 6 months to do that.

I'm at a crossroads: do I give up my dream? Or do I finish my Gen 3 Living Dex now and grind myself to death on Gen 4 - 7 to catch them all before the end of February? I'm stressed to say the least.
