This may be the greatest comment I have ever gotten on one of my videos. I'm pinning this.

There’s something about gen3 that keeps us going back to these games… they’re so comfortable to play, I feel as if they’re a safe place to go back to, somehow. Thanks for the video =]

That safe space point is crazy accurate. I always come back to play this game whenever I’m stressed or bored. The music, the map, the starter Pokémon, secret bases, battle frontier the post game content. From top to bottom this game is amazing. I still play on emulator til this day and wish I knew people who loved this game as much as I do 😅😂

They got me back in to Pokemon. Random Easter gift from my parents lol 🤷🏽‍♂️ only other time I took a break was in 2010 then in 2011 I jumped back in with W2 unfortunately. Thank god for x&y

My emerald battery died finally a few years back and the first thing I did was find out which square had a Feebas on route 119, since that wont ever change with time standing still.

Emerald had a brail alphabet in the manual, thats how we did it before the internet :D

Pokemon Emerald has always been my favorite game in the series. It has the best starter in Swampert and the Battle Frontier is S+. No other game in the series has had better post-game content. Most of them only have a battle tower which is a letdown. The Battle Factory and the Battle Pyramid were two of my favorite pastimes. The Battle Pike and the Battle Dojo were fun for a minute and interesting ideas that would have been fun if they expanded on it.

Yeah too bad besides pokemon platinum, HGSS and BW/BW2 the new games doesn’t have much post game content, sometimes even none (Note: I never played pokemon BW1, I just know you unlock eastern Unova and there’s the White tree or the black city I dont know the name in English)

Trust me, you're not the only one that had a crush on Flannery. Heck i still do. One of the best character designs in the series. I was happy to see her again being her hyper self in ORAS.

I’m replaying Pokemon Emerald for the first time in 18 years right now, and wow, this is an incredible game. I can see why this was the only GBA game I committed to fully complete as a kid; it’s packed with character and great content

I did buy original Ruby Sapphire and emerald . Also have fire red and leaf green. Including all when i bought everything back in the day or my mom for my birthday. I remember having every poke in Pokedex excluding event poke. I loved everything. Fond memory. The Franchise will forever be part of my life. TO BE THE VERY BEST LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS. Good advice for a kids game.❤

Over times with friends that made it special and if you didn’t well it had enough to make you feel like you have a friend with you Pokémon….. Time was different back then we where different back then

I am truly sorry that you did not have a Game Boy in the early 2000s or late 90s. But it's never too late to appreciate the experience

You Wii U Game Boy playing person you 😆 Bro The Game Boy SP back then was legendary! If you want that good Nostalgia experience I suggest getting a good SP with fire red or leaf green and Emerald. Or you could get a DS Lite. And enjoy the wonderful Pokemon games on the DS. Or you could be like me and mod your 2DS XL. Be able play everything from Generation 6 down ❤

There actually is time of day based exclusive pokemon in emerald, i belive theres only 2 but i promise you they exist lol i played this game as a kid and never knew it had them either untill i replayed a emulated version as an adult.

He says in Sapphire and Emerald it floods and in Ruby it is a drought. But in Emerald it’s both. you can see it in the footage as he’s talking about it 😅

To me, at the time, it looked like thunder, and the rain is a lot more prominent, so I assumed that since Kyogre was winning the battle, that meant that the world was flooding and not a combination of both. I made a lot of other mistakes in this video, too. Looking back, I wish I would have put more effort into the video, but at the time, I had a family member die of cancer and going through all that sapped my energy. I appreciate that you sat through this up to this point anyway, lol.

Thank you! I honestly never expected these videos to be seen by as many people as they have been, but I'm glad for it. I still think there's a lot I can improve in the future, though.

Emerald was prob the best Pokémon game remake . So good

The reason Steven was changed to Wallace was likely because at the time people complained that you could easily sweep the game with just Blaziken. Changing the Champion to using all water types, while completely overkill, *does* fix that issue Emerald in general fixes a lot of complaints people had about RS because GameFreak listened to players back then. Shame they dont do that anymore...

Emerald was goated put 999:99 on the clock 😂

My favorite game ever

Isn't it weird how Team Magma made a base underwater in Ruby where that's actually Team Aqua's base in both Sapphire and Emerald?

The beggining reminds me of the bible game video you made, ngl. Your voice was so different back then!

The Drought theme really is so creepy… I love it

This was my first Pokémon game (and my third? videogame ever), when I was 9yo. It was magical, my first grand adventure. I remember telling my best friend in school how I discovered an ancient cave that lead me to catch the three regies, which seemed like one of those fake crazy rumours back then, except this one was real. I kept playing it every now and then until I completed the Battle Frontier (although I wasn't able to get all golden badges). Even if I don't enjoy it as much as before, I still consider this game as my favourite, or the one which had the most impact on me.

The kids I knew growing up in the Bible Belt that weren't allowed to play Pokemon or read Harry Potter because their pastor told them it was satanic were usually... strange. Glad you got away from that shenanigans.

"...but in emerald you find Wallis!" :D

the best games in the series (and still hasn't been surpassed yet) was G/S/C. Emerald is a personal close fave as it is the best of Gen 3. OR/AS were pretty good remakes. Gen 6 was good too.

Theres a way to get the gymleaders to battle you, every 20 trainer battles or every 60th wild pokemon encounter there is a 30% chance for a gymleader to want a rematch so it's not guranteed but i can assure you it def works i managed to battle all of them lol

Catching this a year late, hope you’re doing well friend ❤

Thank you . I'm doing a lot better now

Emerald is my favorite Pokemon game my favorite starter and Pokemon are from this game in Blaziken and Gardevoir

The only cons Gen 3 has are: > The lack of the Physical and Special split It really ruins some Pokemon like Sharpedo and Absol (in addition to the older ones). It's something that should've been added with the addition of the Dark type in Gen 2 since only Houndoom is a Special attacker. > The removal of the day and night cycle, though I'd take that over losing your save data any day. They could've tied it to the in-game clock, with it changing between day and night every couple of real-time hours. Everything else is amazing.

Yeah, I'm finally back, at least for now. I appreciate all the support you guys have given me and if you have any video requests be sure to let me know. No promises but I'll try to make it happen.

I had a huge crush on Flannery too lol

Regarding the shipping it’s kinda obvious the devs tried to put the characters in a relationship in ORAS, not only that but in the manga it’s a canon relationship. I always think it’s cute altho I’m not really into shipping or romance.

Love this game

I also name most of my Ralts Kumatora. neat

I played this as a kid, and well, I did end up worshipping Satan but it was unrelated to pokemon. (Lil joke).
