r/PokemonRuby

Garage sale score!

Garage sale score!

On a whim, I stopped off at a garage sale. And boy am I glad I did! Paid $65 for both DS and Ruby.

EDIT: It’s a fake. No embossed number on label and no gold squares on back of the circuit board.

What makes people play Ruby and Sapphire instead of Emerald?

Outside of wanting the Hoenn Dex Pokemon absent from Emerald (which are all in XD) or ability to trade in eggs/non-Hoenn Dex Pokemon before you beat the E4 (which could be bypassed through Colosseum)?

Can you catch Surskit on Route 102 with a dead battery cartridge?

I understand Surskit is a rare catch but I was watching a video and someone mentioned that if the pokemon swarms(?) it can be a bit easier, but the battery has to be healthy. Unfortunately all of my original RSE cartridges I own have dried out internal batteries. Is it still possible to catch Surskit?

How to evolve Cleffa?

I am trying to complete my Pokédex, but want all the Pokémon to have my trainer ID if possible. So I am battling Gabby and Ty with my Cleffa to level it up and was curious to know how many battles it would take to increase the friendship level sufficiently to evolve.

Overworld Abilities?

Overworld abilities work in emerald, and I know the only one that works in FRLG is illuminate. But what about Ruby and Sapphire? I would assume they don’t work?

Whats the best team for a speedrun??

I havent played ruby in a while so im not familiar much with hoenn. But bc these games are so time consuming i plan on speedrunning ruby on an emulator using the speed up button but i do want this game to go as quick as possible bc i have so manu errands and deadlines to take care of. Im just running into too many pokemon and i cant figure out who i want on my team.

So far i have Marshtomp, Loudred, Manectric, Swellow, Aron, and a zigzagoon as an hm slave. Ove got zangoose, swablu and makuhita in my pc.

I also cant wait to continue my ORAS journey bc im only in the beginning of the game. I want to play that as soon as possible bc im very impatient lol

= I might need some help in My Mental State =

= And I do not want to suffer from analysis paralysis Nor being too cheap to afford a game for my consoles =

= Thank goodness I am way over pokemon Red Blue Green Yellow from 1996 C.C.E. and even Gold Silver And Crystal from 2000 C.C.E. =
