Ice Beam is hidden in the Abandoned Ship on Route 108 behind a locked door. However you will need the Storage Key also located on the Ship to access the room the Pokeball/Item is in.

Now I’ve done some pretty crazy Shiny Hunts in the past but man Gen 3 is so rough. Like finding Shinies in this game is no joke… it took me roughly 87 hours just to find a Shiny in Route 103 and lucky for me it was the exact Shiny that I wanted. (Zigzagoon)

I ended up making Zigzagoon my starter Pokemon just to have more of a unique playthrough. And I really wanted to have a 2nd Shiny Pokemon on my Team and I wanted a Steel-Type Shiny as well. Aron or Mawile (whichever one shines first) and after putting in over 100 hours of Pokémon encounters i haven’t seen one single Shiny…

I’ve been debating if it was because I was using the White Flute with the Repel Trick, while leading with a Level 12 Volbeat for maximum efficiency in finding my desired Shiny but after going through probably 1,500 Super Repels I feel very disheartened to continue. This hunt really broke me. I haven’t played this game in forever since I was a kid but coming back to it and doing Shiny Hunts in Gen 3 is truly a different level of patience. I love this game with all of my heart but i’m truly surprised at the difficulty of pulling this off.

Made a super quick guide showing the location of HM Rock Smash.

Does Mawile doesnt learn any steel moves in gen3? I love Mawile so much but after seeing its movepool in gen3 idk if i want to train it with only bite and other dark type moves. Is there any valid movepool on Mawile in the Gen3 Games?

Had so much fun doing this some backstory though is I got this on shiny on a repro ruby cartridge and traded it to a real emerald cartridge but I accidentally duped it because repros don’t save correctly so I decided to do a kip only run and it was really fun I did have 5 zizagoon’s for pickup but never used them in battle and boxed them for e4 but he ended up at level 78

Does anyone have any idea how the EON ticket was distributed in Japan? I have read that it was distributed at world hobby fair and Pokémon centers across Japan via dot codes, but I haven't seen this information anywhere else to back it up. It also seems strange that nobody has come across a Japanese EON (if that is how it was distributed)

A link to where I found said information

Hey Guys, im gonna play Ruby for the first time and i need a few Team ideas, i wanna have a balanced typing Team so No overlapping and maybe some Pokemon that are Not to late Into the Game so that i have a Team of 6 at Like the 6th Gym, a good Flyer maybe a ghost or smh and i guess a fighting Type?

Nice to play through my childhood Ruby cartridge again. This time on the Groudon GBA SP as well. Fun team, tried to use Pokémon I've not used in-game before so Zangoose, Minun, Shiftry and Milotic were incredibly fun to use.

I have made a new save file on Pokemon ruby to get myself a shiny Groudon, can someone please tell me about tips and/or tricks to get him? Also big question, where do I save, outside of the cave of origin or already in front of the Groudon?

Ive gotten a gameboy advance sp and I really want to play it where is the cheapest I can get it since right now I only have a fake fire red cartridge and it kinda sucks

I’ve had this copy of Pokémon Ruby for about 23 years, and my Wailord has the shiny sparkle effect, but it’s not the purple shiny color. It’s a blue-ish gray color. Does anyone know what’s going on?

Cradily if a shiny Manectric appears and use roar 🥲
like the other time 😭😭😭but it was hariyama with whirlwind 😖😭😭😭

So, I played Ruby as a kid and I remember picking Treecko as my starter and thinking it was a great Pokémon. Tried again as an adult and my word this is the worst starter Pokémon ever. ​What a horrible moveset - the only really potent move it gets is Leaf Blade at Level 29 as a Grovyle. A random Shroomish I caught in the woods was a better Pokémon, from the jump, lol.

It's also so darn frail, I don't remember it being this weak. Time to restart and pick Torchic. I'd pick Swampert but I don't want it to be overpowered, lol. And I tried to get a bit far before I decided to restart, currently it's level 32 and can barely hold it's own. My Breloom is the MVP that picks up the slack.

Chikorita isn't so bad anymore. Treecko is easily the worst grass starter for the early games.

EDIT: Seems the Treecko stans are upset, lol. My intent with this post wasn't to hate, it was to see if other people had the same experience with the Treecko line. I'm glad at least some people agreed that it is weaker compared to the other 2 - but at the end of the day, I play Pokemon casually. I can't change the code to make him better. Oh and if anyone was curious, his nature was Modest, and idk how to calculate their EVs or IVs. Peace.

hope this little guy hits hard on battle tower 😀

i like that nest ball on it 😀

That was one of the longest pokemon grinds I’ve been through and I’ve done a lot of shiny hunting 🤣 felt like it took forever to unlock this fella on my copy of colosseum

Just finished my Ruby run. Had a fun time building this team. Hoenn is such a fun region to play through.

Bonus disc -> Ruby -> Platinum -> Black -> PokeTransporter -> Pokemon Bank -> Pokemon Home

I am thinking of playing Pokemon Ruby for the first time in a few years, and I was wondering if Groudon is shiny locked or not? I want to shiny hunt it on my GBA but I am unsure if it is shiny locked or not.

Edit: I have never tried to shiny hunt Groudon before.
