Pokemon emerald review

pokemon emerald is one of the third wave of pokemon games that came out on the gba (game boy advance) and to this day remains as one of the most popular pokemon games in existence.

The other games that came out in that wave were pokemon ruby, sapphire, fire red, and leaf green. Fire red is a game i (poke hunter3612) am doing on my youtube channel at the moment and i will leave a link in the description to it at the end.

The region:

in pokemon emerald we are introduced to the hoenn region. A region wich we can catch new pokemon, fight new gym leaders, and meet new heroes in. The new professor to the game is prof.birch the pokemon professor. He lets u pick out of your typical typing starters. Mudkip, Torchic, and Treeko.

Evil teams:

In pokemon ruby, sapphire, and emerald we are introduced to two new evil teams. Team aqua (urged to make the world have more water and awaken kyogre). And team magma (urged to make the world have more land and awaken groudon). Two teams set on different goals are bound to have a feud. Which (unsiprisingly) they do, infact they even battle eachother in the game which can be quite annoying at times.

Legendary pokemon:

In the game there are a total of 18!! Legendary pokemon (10 og legendarys) (8 new ones). The new ones consist of groudon, kyogre, rayquaza, latias, latios, regirock, registeel, and regice. The main game legendarys you meet in the actual story are kyogre, groudon, and rayquaza. Emerald referring to rayquaza, sapphire to kyogre, and ruby to groudon. The other legendarys are post game ones. Meaning you only meet the after you finish the games story.

Starters:

At the beginning of the game prof.birch is being chased by a zigzagoon or poocheyna, (depending what game you are playing) and you have to take a pokemon out of his briefcase to save him. Here is were you get your choice you can choose the grass type treeko, the water type mudkip(the strongest one), or the fire type torchic. Treeko will evolve into a grovyle at level 16, and then into a sceptile at level 36 keeping its pure grass type. Mudkip is the best starter you can choose it evolves into a marshtomp at level 16, and then into a swampert at level 36 gaining a water/ground type. Torchic is somewhat of a fan favourite starter for the hoen and it evolves into a combusken at level 16, and then evolving into a blaziken at level 36 gaining a fire/fighting type.
