Pokemon Emerald's Battle Frontier is really cool. Let's see how speedrunners absolutely destroy it (or how it destroys them?)

No. It was just in game hype but you couldn’t even level up your mons anyways. I tried it as a kid and I got to most of the battle brains but it was all just life and death battles for nothing but stupid symbols. At least in the regular gameplay you’re beating gyms leveling up, catching Pokémon and leading up to beating team magma and team aqua as well as becoming Pokémon champ. Emerald post game is a bit overrated but it doesn’t take away how decent the game was in the regular run. Battle frontier was difficult and we didn’t even get good rewards. No extra post game legendary, no extra post game region. All their new Pokémon were events back in the 2000s.

Super cool! I wish there had been more discussion about the team itself. I would have liked to have seen at least one full battle to help demonstrate to me just how OP this team is.

@thewolfofthestars1847 7 месяцев назад

IIRC Latios is a strong Special attacker with just overall exemplary stats, being a Legendary. Metagross is a strong Physical attacker with good innate defense in its Steel type, also has high stats, and holds a Choice Band. And Swampert is a mixed attacker and tank, again, with very good innate defense in its Water/Ground typing and holding Leftovers for longevity. So the team is assembled for A) good innate defensive qualities in typing and base stats, so B) EVs can be put into attacking stats instead, which are already good but become great when EV-boosted, and C) a versatile range of Physical and Special damage dealers to be able to handle whatever comes their way. It's a very strong team designed to take on a large variety of battles in quick succession--as is fitting for a speedrun!

@goldenhate6649 6 месяцев назад

Swampert is also just flat out, without question, the best starter for the base game as well.

@dr0g_Oakblood 6 месяцев назад

4:16 - huh, TIL that IVs were less impactful than I thought, I thought they were a fractional multiplier and not a flat addition of 0-31 in a final stat, but that makes sense. EVs are more impactful on the stat, with a potential difference of +63 at 252 EVs at level 100, before accounting for nature. EVs when nature scaled can mean a +69 after rounding, so that’s nice. TLDR: IVs are roughly half as impactful as the full effect of EVs, both of which matter less than the Base Stat value.

Just to respond to your intro real fast, old enough hardcore pokemon fans remember what happened when the internal battery of gen 1 games ran out. Once that happened, there was no save file that could survive your gameboy being off for a few seconds. This meant a lot of kids HAD to learn to play their gen 1 games in 1 sitting. I probably did about 30 runs like that after I got over the trauma of my original file being gone forever. My fastest was about 3 and a half hours with solo blastoise + hm slaves, which is nowhere near what optimized speedruns do with nidoking but still feels pretty good for a kid who was 9 years old at the time and was doing the routing entirely on his own without help from the internet.
