As part of that series, Emerald bears some similarities to the previous games. The adventure unfolds in Hoenn, where you can collect all of the 200 Pokéman from Ruby and Sapphire in your Pokédex. You are again cast as a young adventurer, arriving fresmfaced in Hoenn without a single Pokémon to your name. Your goal is to change that. As you wander the map, you catch Pokémon and train them Into the ultimate team. With these Pokémon, you enter a series of battles with other Trainers. The biggest battles take piace in Gyms, where the winner receives Gym badges. After you have conquered all of the Gyms, i's tite to head to Ever Grande City and take on the Elite Four, the most tremendous Pokémon Masters in the world. Pokémon Emerald also offers some big differences that make it an entirely new game Rather than face either Team Magma or Team Aqua. the two rival Pokémon Trainer clans, Emerald casts you as a third party attempting to make peace between the two warring groups. You must track down both Team Magma and Team Aqua, stopping them before they can further their plots to forever change the face of Hoenn, You may visit some of the same locations, but your goals are often different. Some of the Pokémon that were readily available or rare in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire have been. switched around, Some Pokémon don't appear in Emerald and you must trade them from the other games. A new Safari Zone offers Pokémon that were previously unavaltable, The biggest addition to Pokémon Emerald |s the Battle Frontier. This new region is like @ theme park for Pokémon Trainers. There are Seven arenas to battle through, and each successful Trainer offers a greater challenge than the last. If you like to battle, you'll love this new area, In addition to. these new areas, Pokémon Emeraid also offers a new level of connectivity. The ame takes full advantage of the Wireless. Adapter for connecting to other players to engage in battles or trade Pokémon. Emerald also links up with the GameCube game Pokémon Colosseum, so you can exchange Pokémon between the two games. Plus, you can link up with Pokémon Box and use its organizational tools ta put your Pokémon in order A word of warning for any Trainer who thought Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire weren't enough of & challenge—wait until you play Emerald. The game is a lot tougher, requiring you to really hone your battle tactics. Many more Trainers walk the routes. The Gym Leaders have newer, stronger Pokémon. And if you want to become the Pokémon Champion, you'd better bring your best, because the Elite Four are like no one you've ever battled before. Using the Guide Tis book contains a wealth of information that enhances your Pokémon Emerald experience. The next section takes you through the basics of Pokémon catching and battling. Two walkthrough chapters help you complete your adventure in Hoenn. Check out the full Pokédex for detailed statistics and move lists on the more than 200 Pokémon you can collect in Hoenn.The essence of Pokémon is battling—encountering other Pokémon Trainers in the field and engaging them in skill contests. But there's more to raising and battling Pokémon than mastering powerful move sets, To succeed as a Trainer, you must assemble the best Pokémon team you can—which doesn’t necessarily mean stacking it with the strongest Pokémon in ail of Hoenn. You must choose a well rounded team, of which there are thousands of possible combinations. The following section Is a primer for budding Pokémon Trainers wha hope to achieve the title of Pokémon Champion. It details how to catch, raise, train, and breed Pokémon. tn Pokémon Emerald, as with the other Pokémon games, you get out of it what you put in.

There are ‘times When you Will not want to encounter wild Pokémon, Maybe your Pokémon are weak from a ‘ough battle. If that's the case, either stay off the grass oF use an Item such as Repel to keep wild Pokémon from interrupting your journey. te) ee L Caee Surfing / Diving Many Pokémon live in Hoenn's waters. To encounter these Pokémon, take to the open blue by either surfing on a Pokémon's back, after finding HMO3 (Surf), oF slipping beneath the waves, af finding HMOB (Dive).

The only way to catch some Water-type Pokémon is by fishing. In order to cast your line, you must first find a Fishing Rod. There are three types of Fishing Rods in Hoenn: Old Rad, Good Rod, and Super Rod, and each Rod offers different results. Some wild Pokémon turn up their noses at an id Red, preferring to wait for a Super Rod's batt Some Pokémon nibble at the Rods, but the frequency changes depending on which Rod you use. For example, a rare Pokémon caught with the Good Rod ‘may be common when you upgrade to the Super Ros. nd the three different Fishing Rods. here: Dewford Town (Old Rod) Route 118 (Good Rod) Mossdeep City (Super Rod) Caves ‘Some Pokémon linger in Hoenn's caves.

Eran You cannot catch wild Pokémon Unless you have a Poké Ball, The more Poké Balls you have, the better. There are many types of Poké Balls, some better suited for certain situations and Pokémon than others, Some Poké Balls are more: expensive, and while the expensive Ultra Balls may have @ higher success rate than a regular Poké Ball, your results may vary, If you have the cash, feel free to load up on expensive Poké Balls, but be aware that sometimes the best tools. for the job are the cheapest.

To link, report to a Pokémon Conter and head upstairs. Use the Union Room to initiate a link with another Pokémon Trainer. You can swap Pokémon back and forth, trading ‘one of your friend's favorites for a Pokémon you want or need. In fact ‘some Pokémon are not available in Pokémon Emerald and you car ‘only add them to the Pokédex by trading with a player of Pokémon Ruby or Pokémon Sapphire, Some Pokémon cannot evolve to their final form unless you trade them with friends.

The natural result of raising a Pokémon is Evolution. the process of strengthening a Pokémon so it can take on its advanced forms. However, for some Pokémon, there is more to Evolution than gaining enough experience points to trigger a shape change. Certain items and conditions also affect the Evolution process. ‘ eV arti \Tartics As you battle wild Pokémon and Pokémon Trainers your Pokémon gain experience. The more experience 1a Pokémon gains, the more it levels up. When Pokémon reaches a pre-determined level, it attempts to evolve into its next form, if it has one. ‘The more battles a Pokémon participates in, the ‘quicker it will gain levels. Every level requires more experience than the last to achieve. When your Pokémon are at low levels, they rapidly gain levels Ata higher level, gaining levels takes longer—but results are greater: And besides, the further you are in your adventure. the more experiance you earn from Trainer battles of wild Pokémon encou Thare are ways to share experience among your Pokémon and spread out the level gains. (It's not a good team tactic to have a couple of Pokémon at LV35 while the rest of your team is sitting idle at LV3,) Any Pokémon that participates in a battley A Pa a VT PRIMAORAICIA a Bains experience after a victory. So, you can set a Pokémon you want to gain levels in the “lead” Position (it's the first Pokémon put into a battle) and when te battie starts, switch it out for a stronger Pokémon or one that is a better fit for the battle conditions. When the battle ends, the Pokémon you ‘Switched out in the beginning receives some of the experience earned, The more Pokémon who Participate in a battle, even if they are switched in nd out for just a single tum, the more the experience is spread out. This slows level gains, but It'S @ good way to help a team evenly level up. You can also equip one of your Pokémon with an Exp. Share, a Held Item that automatically diverts, eared experience to the bearer, even if it does not Participate in a battle. This Is a great tool for leveling up a new Pokémon or & weaker Pokémon Share the Exp. Share with the team and watch those level counts creep un. When @ Pokémon reaches the required level for Evolution, the process automatically begins. You cannot reverse it. However, you can stop the Evolution process before it is complete. This keeps the Pokemon in its current form, but it gains the extra tevel and whatever benefits ‘that brings. Why would you want to halt Evolution?

You can use this to your advantage if you ‘have two compatible Pokémon of opposite genders sand both have excellent skills and stats. The ‘offspring will be LVS, but loaded with power. ‘Your new Pokemon can also be on the receiving end of the high-level moves its parents took a iong, time to learn. Three types of moves can be taught through this strategy: Learned Moves, inherited Moves, and Egg Moves. Leamed Moves: Moves any Pokémon caught in the wild would know at LVS, Inherited Moves: Moves learned through the Evolutionary process or via a TM can be Passed from the male parent Pokémon, even if the move cannot be learned or Used until after LVS, Egg Moves: Egg Moves are learned from the male parent Pokémon, but these are aifferemt than Inherited Moves. Ege Moves ate maves the Pokémon would not normally be able to learn, When ai Pokémon hatches, it has the moves a Wild Pokémon at LYS Would know. For example, a New Treecko will know Pound and Leer. The Pokémon has enough room to leam two more maves; these ‘spots can be filled with inherited Moves. inherited Moves and Exg Moves take greater precedence over Learned Moves, so if the Pokémon has access to ‘mote moves than you have empty space for, it will replace the Learned Moves witit the Inherited and Egg Moves. There are ways to breed a Pakémon with impressive move sets. if both parents know the same high-level move, the baby Pokémon will also know it, even though itis LV8, Plus, TM moves you would normally have one shot at using can be “re- used” by breeding the move dawn from the mate parent Pokémon The included Pokedex details which Egg Moves the newborn Pokémon can learn, so check the entries before yau breed to make the “ultimate” Pokémon.

Battles There are two types of battles in Pokéirion Emerald battles against wild Pokémon and those against Pokémon Trainers. To succeed at a battle, you must have a basic understanding of the battle system, from selecting moves to pitting Pokéman against weaker types. Battles with wild Pokémon are always Lond Battles. Battles with Pokémon Trainers can be either 1-on-1 or 2-0n-2. | Guodian When the battle starts, the first Pokémon on your team enters the field, This Pokémon is called your Fead! Pokémon. You can switch out your lead Pokémon when you're not in a battle, After your lead Pokémon is outside of battle, t's time to choose 8 course of action. You have four choices: Fight: The Fight command allows you to tell the Pokémon which move to use in the battle, whether it is offensive ar defensive. Each move has a limited number of uses. which is detailed by its Power Point (PP) level. You can replenish PP between battles at a Pokémon Center, or in battle with a recovery Item, Pokémon: This'command allows you to shift Pokémon in and out of battle, Is your Pokémon not daing so well against its opponent? Do you have a Pokémon in reserve who is better Suited for a particular battle?

You cannot complete a battle: move and use an item in the same turn. Run: You cannot flee from a Trainer Battle, but if you are battling against a wild Pokémion, use this command to exit the fight. This is not always successful. Some ‘apponent Pokémon have special abilities or moves that can prevent you from running. Affect not direct certall :n nt during: les. Rayquaza's Outrage, for example, randomly attacks either of the opponent Pokémon during the course of attach Affect All Pokémon: Some attack moves affect your own Pokémon during battle. When you cast a move that affects every Pokémon outside of battle, be sure that your Pokémon will not be eliminated because of it, Make sure you either have enough HP or that it will finish the battle in your favo ‘even if it eauses your Pokémon to faint. Hoenn’s fields are full of Pokémon Trainers looking for battles. if you walk into their line of sight, the Trainer challenges you to a battle. You cannot fefuse, and you must battle until all of one Tr Pokémon have fainted (Jost all HP). There are a few different battle types in Pokémon Emerald. in addition to regular 1.0n-4 Battles, there are 2on2 Bailes where two Trainers send out a single Pokémon each, In these battles, you must respond with the Pokémon. Your lead Pokémon and the second Pokémon are automatically sent into the battle. There are also some rare four-Trainer battles Where you have an ally. During these battles, you and your ally each send out your lead Pokémon. lUsing| Moves) Offensive moves can dish out different kinds of damage. Some moves direct damage at a single ‘opponent. Other moves affect every Pokémon in the battle, en's. Affect One Opponent: In 1-on-1 Battles, this Is a given. However, during 2-0n-2 Battles, you must select which opponent Pokémon you want to target with @ move. Atfeet Two Opponents: Some moves in 2-on-2 Battles affect both of your opponent Pokémon, HMO3 (Surf) is @ good example of this. It brings a wave of water crashing on. both opponents. Pegi Bobet The true essence of a Pokémon battle is the art of matching up your opponent Pokémon's type with a move type that will send it reeling. Every Pokémon Is assigned a specific type, such as Fire of Steel. Every type has at least one type against which it is weak. For example, Water-type Pokémon are weak against Electriotype moves. Because of this system, you must have a well founded Pokémon team that spans several types. It's a good idea to have Water. Fire-, and Electric- type Pokémon on your team, Beyond those three types, you may wish to concentrate on raising strong, Rock. and Ground:type Pokémon, as well as Psychic- and Fiying.type Pokémon, However you assemble your team, though, is up to you. This chart details the strengths and weakness of Pokémon types and move types.
