IS it worth playing sapphire or ruby over emerald pokemon? I want to play NUZLOCK but I don't know if I should jump straight into emerald or play sapphire.
Yes, Emerald is a direct downgrade from RS due to replacing Steven with yet another Water-type specialist as the previous Gym Leader, the same exact problem Johto did.
>>59695724>>59695724No, except for a really niche reason, like wanting to do the Contests as you travel across each city, instead of having all ranks together at the last third of the game; or if you're a Team Magma/Aqua fan, so that you're siding with one while fighting the other.
>>59695724R/S might be better for Nuzlockes than emerald, less battles means less chances for the death of a party member.
>>59695724Ruby Version was the original Nuzlocke, so it's the purest option for doing one

>>59695724Ruby and sapphire are harder than emerald, don't @ me
>>59695724Can someone make an emerald romACK where Wallace and Steven are back to being the 8th gym and champion?
>>59696267No
>>59696279Please
Yeah, play Ruby if you want to use Medicham, Mawile or Zangoose.
>>59696299Do it yourself
Don't listen to them, OP.Emerald is a direct upgrade in almost every single facet.Wallace being champion> A) makes the champion of an ocean based region be a water type user who uses STRONG heavy hitters like Milotic and Gyarados and Wailord, and he uses WEATHER in his battle with rain dance Ludicolo> B) turns Steven Stone into the TRAINER RED character, secret postgame superboss with level 78 MONSTERS like pseudolegendary Metagross and RERBP monster Metagross.And that's not even mentioning all of the other stuff it does:> fight BOTH evil teams, and new magma hideout in Mt Chimney> Tate &' Liza have an actual team instead of just 2 niggas that can be mollywhapped by a surf> New Mauville> Battle tents and trainer hill> the frontier. The nuzlocke is over when you beat steven, but the GAME is over when you beat PYRAMID KING BRANDON, the guy you save for last> NPC rematches INCLUDING GYM LEADERS WHO FIGHT YOU IN DOUBLE BATTLESAnd most importantly, the player characters are more swagged out with that orange and green.Hey, if you're really hot-to-trot, you can fancy your nuzlocke around money and make it that you can only use a pokemon center when everybody is at 100% HP (in order to restore PP). But if you're just cool-kid-not, then that's fine too.
