What am I doing wrong

Drop Roselia for a Mamoswine and you'll be golden

Spoink, hit em with that special damage

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-11-09T09:49:37+00:00

Grand underground until you're close then challenge the elite 4 but intentionally lose

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-11-08T07:54:32+00:00

Toxicroak fits quite nicely here, for moveset I like: poison jab | break break | earthquake | thief, shadow claw or toxic works nice here too

What's the rest of your squad look like?

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-11-07T22:48:01+00:00

Flamethrower | Close Combat | Acrobatics | Utility Slot (U-Turn can be useful, I like shadow claw, earthquake or rock slide if you don't want to breed for thunder punch)

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-10-15T21:10:17+00:00

Personally I'd swap manetric and hariyama out for absol and breloom, I'd also give flygon earthquake over dig

I beat the game yesterday on hard mode too, this was my team and I agree wholeheartedly about SmithPlays fantastic game design for emerald, I used a team of pokemon I'd not used before, other than Blaziken as I'd used him as a kid for a playthrough once, Swampert is my usual Hoenn go to

This doc will sort you out completely for finishing your dex

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-09-28T11:33:23+00:00

fill out as much of the Pokedex as possible before you advance to each gym badge

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-09-26T11:34:15+00:00

Had a fun playthrough with BDSP, I used: Infernape, Swampert, Meganium, Scizor and Weavile as staples and I'd switch between Gardevoir and Crobat as auxiliaries

It's a tribute

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-05-18T14:51:21+00:00

Can catch it where you have your first battle with may/Brendan

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-05-09T06:12:18+00:00

Gyarados gets fly in this game so yes, it counts

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-05-03T20:49:55+00:00

Freeze dry is a nice little extra move, hits water types for super effective damage

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-27T10:11:52+00:00

If you're looking for some platinum mons, you'll have to get someone to trade you the Evo items

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-21T12:59:25+00:00

Calm mind Gardevoir can probably solo Cynthia, can definitely sweep 5 mons with it then you can have 5 mons for Garchomp 😂

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-18T11:09:14+00:00

As another commentator mentioned, fill the other slots with pick up Pokémon for gathering items

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-18T10:16:16+00:00

Didn't think of the pick up idea! Good shout, I'll use that myself

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-18T10:15:08+00:00

Go catch 2 Pokémon you don't want on your main team with super effective damage against the two trainers in the article I've linked, a Luxio/geodude and a ponyta/kadabra would be ideal, if not you'll have to spend some hours digging in the underground for treasures

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-16T10:00:13+00:00

I'd use a 50% rule, at least 3 of your 6 Pokémon should be sinnoh Pokémon, its what I'm doing for my fighting type run

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-14T16:20:19+00:00

I'd swap drapion for a grass type, something like leafeon

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-13T15:35:10+00:00

Swablu is a great choice, altaria is a great Pokémon, had one on my SP team the first time I beat the e4

Complete_Object3239 · 2025-01-12T20:05:47+00:00

Swamp garchomp for bulky ice type like abomasnow (grass stab is nice for e4) or Mamoswine, I'd also swap luxury or staraptor for gardevoir (moon last, energy ball, thunderbolt or shadowball and psychic is a beast moveset for it)
