This can be accomplished either by using a Game Boy Advance link cable or by use of the wireless adapter that was bundled with FireRedand LeafGreen.Īside from the traditional battle and overworld style, players' Pokémon are able to participate in Pokémon Contests where they can try and win in five different contest categories: "Cool", "Beauty", "Cute", "Smart", and "Tough" competitions. Players can battle and trade with other players by linking their copies of Emerald with other Game Boy Advance games (which include Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, and LeafGreen). Wild Pokémon encountered by players can be captured using items called Poké Balls, which have a greater chance of success the weaker the wild Pokémon is. Every Pokémon has an ability that often aides in battle, such as abilities that make a Pokémon more powerful if they are close to fainting. Unlike Ruby and Sapphire which had you fight two specific trainers, Emerald allowed for you to have a 2-on-2 battle with two trainers both of whom you could usually battle separately. Enough experience will earn that Pokémon a higher level, which grants upgraded stats (which includes attack, speed, defense, special attack, special defense, and health) and sometimes grant new moves.Ĭertain battles allow for two-on-two combat certain moves were designed to support partners while other moves are capable of attacking two or more Pokémon. When a human-controlled Pokémon wins a battle, the Pokémon gains experience. Once one trainer runs out of Pokémon, the battle is ended. When a Pokémon hits 0 HP, they faint, forcing the Pokémon's trainer to switch out. Each Pokémon has 1-4 different moves that they can use, which have different effects, number of uses, and types (such as Grass, Psychic, etc.). Players can choose from one of four options: Fight, Bag, Switch, and Run. Trainers send out the first Pokémon in their party and they take turns attacking where the first strike is determined usually by the speed of the two Pokémon.
Stats of the Pokémon and their trainers are shown on the side of each participant these stats include the Pokémon's levels, the trainers' Pokémon number (which can be anywhere between one and six), the Pokémon's health, and any status effects (such as poison, paralysis, burn, sleep, and freeze). When this happens, the game shifts to a battle screen where players and their Pokémon are seen on the front-left portion of the screen while opponents are viewed on the back-right portion. They can also fight other trainers' Pokémon. Players can encounter wild Pokémon by walking into grass, surfing on their Pokémon, walking through caves, and other means. Much of the game takes place in an overhead style players' characters can move in four directions and can talk to other people on the overworld. The gameplay in Emerald is largely the same as it was in Ruby and Sapphire.
