The Pokemon Stakes keep getting higher! Pokemon Emerald extends the Pokemon Battle Frontiers of Pokemon Ruby and Pokemon Sapphire. Once again you must stop Team Magma or Team Aqua from expanding to keep balance in the world of Hoenn. Rayquaza (sky) will help you to balance out Groudon (ground) and Kyogre (water). You will train to fight seven new Frontier Brain competitors to obtain all of the needed symbols in the Battle Frontier. Pokemon Emerald is fully compatible with Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire, Colosseum, FireRed, and LeafGreen. Pokemon Emerald is also the first Pokemon adventure to allow wireless trades and battles between handhelds.

A big step for Pokémon games!
Every Pokémon game I've ever played has had me begging to play something else after about an hour. Emerald was different. I played older Pokémon games before so the graphics stunned me. I love the easy game play and new places to explore. It had me guessing from the beginning so I was shocked. If you are a Pokémon fan be sure to rent this. If you haven't played Pokémon games this is a great game to start with. Pokémon is definitely on the right track!

Raquaza finally has his game. Die Groudon Kyogre!!
Every Pokémon game I played was ending boringly. Even Ruby and Sapphire stunk, but Emerald ruled!!!!! I love Raquaza, he defeats the two enemies, Groudon and Kyogre, plus you can catch him before facing the Elite Four, so it is much easier. And unlike Ruby and Sapphire, you have much harder things to do after the Elite Four. The Gym leaders are much harder, double battles with strangers, even better Pokémon, the Ultimate Pokémon Game!!!!

One of the few Pokemon trends which can never die
We all remember the very first Pokemon games, Red, Blue, Green, and the oh so famous Yellow Versions. We all loved how original it was, on the number of Pokemon there were, and how it brought friends together for trading (and to use the ever so famous Copy Pokemon glitch through the trading). Now, about ten games later for the Gameboy, we have the Emerald Version, a remake from Ruby and Sapphire.
<br />
<br />And let me tell you all, the greatness is still here.
<br />
<br />It takes all of the good things from the first two games and makes them better. This version gives you more pokemon, pokemon that actually moves (as was seen on Cyrstal), and about twice as many Legendary Pokemon.
<br />
<br />Of course, you choose if you want to play as Brendan (the male) or May (the Female), and it starts out much like a previous version did, by saving the Professor.
<br />
<br />A lot is the same, except for the fact that you face both Team Magma and Aqua and has a more developed story.
<br />
<br />Now, the only thing keeping me from giving this a 10 is the fact that you can't get all of the Pokemon unless you went to a Nintendo Event.
<br />
<br />You CANNOT fight or catch four of the new Legendary Pokemon unless you were able to get to the event. And for a fifth Lenegdary Pokemon you need to mix your save from either Ruby or Sapphire that has a special item in one of the two previous games. But if you have either a Gameshark, Action Replay, or a Codebreaker, then you are able to get these five. For anyone who doesn't... well...
<br />
<br />I would say that this would be a very good buy, at least a rent for anyone who loved the original game. This is a game for everyone to love and enjoy.
<br />
<br />Now, you Gotta Go Catch them All!

EMERALD guide
Finally!!!!Rayquaza has his own game!!!!!Die groudon and kyoger!!!!Sorry if I being offensive to people who like them.I will give a little hint about the game.I will tell you about how get a glitch pokemon and I know how to get it.First you need to go to a Nintendo event and get the ticket to find mew.When you battle mew use just a normal poke ball and it will miss.but then shut the game off.(I forgot to tell you that you need to save in front of mew.)Then turn it on and battle mew.But mew will look like a wall.YOU HAVE TO USE A MASTER BALL YOUR FIRST TURN OR ELSE HE WILL KILL YOU IN 1 TURN!He is level 100 and his stats are maxed out.His name is MISSINGNO.Im not lying!!!When he comes out he has two moves:Transform and explosion.When he uses explosion,he does not die.Also,his contest stats are the max.

This is SOOOO much better than Ruby and Sapphire
I like how i can get Groudon, Kyogre, and Raquaza all at one time. Not seperatly. You can fight against Team magma AND Aqua. You get a cool green headband instead of the lame red one. You Get the battle frontier instead of just the Battle tower. You also get a cool collar on shirt.

pokemon: emerald
the same with every pokemon game but it stands out from other gameboy games.There are a fair share of good graphics and a new story line and the BIG FLAW is that your allowed to catch raqwuaza the big green dragon on the cover before you beat the elite four.Has long has you save up the masterball that you have,the elite four is more or less of the elite TWO raqwauza pummels everthing accept ice pokemon and one hits enough but you can fix this problem by starting out with a treeko all in all the games good and hard but the elite four...come on raqwuaza alone can pummel 4 of them with a few hyper potions

Brandy's Corner
I liked how it had more Pokémon then the other versions. I also liked how I got a egg because the older versions never had an egg. The battles wear much tougher but the controls remained easy. One thing I did not like about this game was when I used flash it did not show the whole cave. In the older versions it would show the whole cave. If you love Pokémon you will love this game. If you don't like Pokémon, it is worth renting.
