Pokemon Does It Again

This is a great game. It is just like Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire except some differences. The biggest difference is the Battle Frontier. All you do is battle, battle, battle. You can only go there if you beat the elite four. The champion is now Wallace and the 8th gym leader is Juan (a new guy). Juan is really easy. He is just like Wallace. He trains water pokemon. Steven you can battle in meteor falls, but be warned Steven has amazing Pokemon like a Skarmory, Cradily, Armaldo, Aggron, Metagross, and Claydol. All are around level 70. Another great difference is you can get all the legendary pokemon. Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Latios, Latias, and all three regis. You can also get pokemon from Gold and Silver version like Miltank, Wooper, Octillery, Teddiursa, Pineco, Sunkern, and more. You can get both desert fossils. In Ruby and Sapphire you could only get one! There is also the Trainer Hill (BORING). You try to race to the top of this building and battle trainers along the way. You also have this thing called the match call list. You can call some trainers and battle them again. Even gym leaders. Overall this game is great. Buy it.

My children LOVE this game!

I have had to but 3 of these games, because all three of my children love it. The first 2 - I spent days looking for the best price, and the game period! Logged on here - and took no time. Saved myself about $9.00, and who knows how much gas and time. Great game, and recommend it to any parent/gamer.

Son absolutely loves this game

My 10 yr old had been pretty much playing with his PSP for the last year, and had relegated the GBA to storage. Word of this game, and trying a hand at it at summer camp, made him dig out the GBA and order this game.

He has played it for probably 15 hours , and is nearly done with all the levels (I think 2 to go). He has had lots of help from friends, and that has helped get him over the frustrating (several) parts he can't figure out on his own. Overall, a bit less aggrevation than some of the PSP games he's tried (most of which are geared to older teens+). Highly recommend, based on what I've seen and heard from him (and no, he didn't get sapphire or ruby).

ADDED NOTE: DO NOT allow your young child to try any of the "cheats" downloaded online!!! My son tried one that I believe was maliciously placed on a website by someone (which asked the user to turn the game off in the middle of a save) and which DELETED his entire game save, which was almost the entire completed game except the last level. He was so crushed, he quite playing it and refuses to play it again, because he had almost finished the game. I called several Gamestops, and even Nintendo Cust Svc (open late 7 days a week) and spoke with a game specialist who said this is a common problem, and there is NO cure...use cheats at your own risk. All of the half-dozen Gamestop employees I spoke to had this happen to them when they were a bit "younger", and said they wouldn't do it again. Lesson learned !

Good,easy ,and fun

I think this game is good.It should be easy for those that know pokemon games and have played ruby and sapphire.It may get a little challenging after beating the pokemon league.But the only thing that bugs me is the no-new pokemon thing,its been going on with some of the games and the only new one seems to be munchlax.This game has ruby and sapphire mixed in.heres a list of things that are new and ditched stuff:contests are mostly replaced with battle tents,the pokenav can be used as a cell phone again,you can catch kyogre and groudon.This game will make a good addition to your pokemon collection and parents,I think your child would like it.

wow wow wow wow wow

I've played Pokemon sice Red and Blue came out. Like Cryistal Pokemon move but, it moves during the whole battle! You are not on team Magam or the other team. You work ALONE(most of the time)!!!!! So what, I know you can take it! It's the coolest Pokemon game ever!

I havn't been to the Battle Frontier yet, but I have seen pictures and herd lots of cool and great things about it. I am a member on a Pokemon forums and I like to look at posts about the Battle Frontier. When I look at the questions and they are talking about all this stuff I have no idea about, I think it must be AMAZING! It looks plain and normal like a town like Lilycove, but it is far more complex on the inside of the buildings. Factorys, Fan centers, Battle Tower, Battle Pyramid! LOTS OF BATTLE PLACES!

I love to surf around on the water and sit there and watch all of the designs and look real close and see the little PIXELS that make up the pictures. =D It looks so cool how they have done that and how they have made the world of Pokemon and all of the diffrent regions. All of the maps, ideas, STATS., looks, how all of the routes and caves tie together! Ever little rock, tree, bush, grass patch! The world of Pokemon is truely amazing.

BUY IT NOW YOU LAZY NOT BUYING NOWERS!

JUST ONE QUESTION

I'm hoping to buy poke'mon Emerald and NO I DON'T CARE THAT IT IS A REMAKE OF R/S!
I find it rather stupid that there is no way you can catch Celebi!
So u listen to me, MAKE A WAY TO CATCH CELEBI OR I WILL GO MAD!!!

GOOD GAME!

Pokèmon Emerald is the most recent Hoenn RPG game. It has stronger gym leaders and the Battle Frontier is new. More Pokèmon to catch too. This is a game that uses patience and training skills. Patience because getting to points in the game, like catching Rayquaza and legendary Pokèmon. Training skills because everything is tougher, just like the saying "Everything is bigger in Texas" how about "Everything is harder in Hoenn"???????????? The game has tons of Pros and Cons. Pros are definately that because you can catch all Pokèmon from Sapphire and Ruby????????????

Cons are that weak trainers won't make it far. The game is fun, it is exactly like Sapphire and Ruby. Your opponent is tougher a lot. With TOUGH Pokèmon, but that is how it is in every Pokèmon game.
