Ok, say Latias, or Latios (depends on game) is in the same area as you are, then you search all around, then he fleds away and you never get a chance to catch him. Well, just use Sweet Scent! Sweet Scent has a 85.7% chance of having Latios attack you, if your in the same area.

Are you looking to keep a precious Pokemon of yours from evolving without constantly canceling the evolution after leveling up, but you're already using the two Everstones you get in the game? Well, just go out and battle wild Geodudes while using Thief or just catch them! Each wild Geodude has a 5% chance of holding an Everstone, so it can take a while to get extras, but you don't have to keep moving an Everstone from Pokemon to Pokemon when you get some extras.

link directly to this cheatAll three starters

This requires 2 game versions of Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald. They can be 2 different versions. Start a game. Choose any of the 3 starters. Go through the normal steps. Defeat your rival. Catch any other pokemon. Trade your starter to the other version. Then do it again, but with a different starter. Then do it one more time. Choose the last starter. Defeat your rival and then catch any 2 pokemon.Trade those 2 pokemon for the other starters on the other versions, and tadaa! All three starters. It also allows you to collect trainer ID's for the Lilycove Department store's lottery. This works for pretty much any pokemon game as long as you use the proper game to trade to.

There is about a 57.2% you will freeze him.SAVE BEFORE FIGHTING HIM. If you are lucky and freeze him and his health is at red, throw an Ultra Ball. There is a very high chance you will catch him, so you will not need Master Ball. Keep throwing Ultra Balls until he is caught. If you do not catch him you will need to start over.

Get a Wobbuffet to at least level 50 and/or another Pokémon with ANY move that can keep her from fleeing. Go to Route 120/121 and walk into the grass. Save here and walk around until you find Latias. Don't expect to catch her now unless you saved your Master Ball. Whittle her HP down a bit, and save again after the battle. (If you didn't find her, skip this step.) Restart your game and check your Pokédex for her. (If you didn't find her before, don't worry- you don't have to do this until you have done the previous step.)If she's in your area, look for her, and if you find her, repeat what you did the first time you saw her. If she isn't, restart your game and check your Pokédex for her. Keep restarting and finding her until you catch her. This works in Ruby (w/Latios), Sapphire, and Emerald (w/whichever one you picked).

link directly to this cheatBeating Norman

OK, some people find it really hard to beat Norman (your dad), so here\'s a great strategy. Pokemon required:

Any second evoloution starter (around level 30)

A pokemon that knows counter that\'s atleast level 29. (Like breloom)

Start with the pokemon that knows counter. (I used breloom). When use counter on the first turn. His slaking will most likely use facade, which does massive damage, and counter doubles it! So that takes care of slaking. Next he will use Virogoth, so take out your star starter. He\'s not too hard, just keep attacking him, and use a super potion/hyper potion if you need to.
Lastly he\'ll use another slaking. So take out your counter pokemon. He\'ll have yellow health, so i suggest using a potion. This slaking is easier, because he doesn\'t use facade nearly as much. DO NOT USE COUNTER. Because this slaking mostly uses the focus punch, (It has to tighten it\'s focus first.) so if you don\'t use something that inflicts damage on it without it having to attack, the slaking will use focus punch, which completely and utterly knocks out your pokemon!

Ok, so I know these instructions might be sort of hard to follow, but You should beat your dad in no time!

Talk to his wife and tell her "Challenge Contest" (you can only do that after beating the elite 4) and she will give you a Pamtre berry. Go to Lilycove city and enter the contest hall. You can make an Indigo level 50 pokeblock there with 3 other people in the game without linking up! By the way, indigo level 50 pokeblocks will make a pokemon's beauty attribute VERY high, and it will be easy for you to win a beauty contest.

Well to breed any type of pokemon you just need to trade a ditto from fire-red or leaf-green. Then, bring the ditto to the day care and just leave it in there (I just keep it in there and it is lvl 80 because there is no reason to take it out.)then bring any pokemon you want to breed (except legendaries of course)so if your friend wanted your starter pokemon you just put the pokemon in the day care and there you go infinite pokemon eggs.

link directly to this cheatBreeding Pokemon

Breeding a pokemon is basically taking one male and one female pokemon and breeding them. However, to do so you need to make sure they are in the same egg group and that they are both checked into the Pokemon Daycare located on route 117.

The Egg groups are:
1. Amorphous
2. Bug
3. Dragon
4. Fairy
5. Field
6. Flying
7. Grass
8. Human-Like
9. Mineral
10. Monster
11. Water 1
12. Water 2
13. Water 3

And of course, some rare legendary pokemon don't have and egg group.
You DON'T have to breed the pokemon with a same species. So, you could breed a Delcatty with a Spina since they are both in the Field Egg Group.

When you deposit the two pokemon, go to the old man stading next to the Daycare. He will tell you how your two pokemon are getting along:

They're very friendly... = Expect an egg!
The two seem to get along... = An egg might be coming!
The two don't seem to like each other... = A slim chance for an egg
The two prefer to play with other pokemon... = Not a chance.

Leave him and explore for some time before coming back. If the old man is standing outt further than when you first met him, he has an egg waiting for you. The Daycare lady also will tell you that he is waiting for you. Make sure you have enough room in your party before collecting the egg. You can also retrieve the new parents by checking them out of the Daycare as you would normally. Most likely they wont grow many levels when you get them. MAKE SURE you don't leave them there after you collect your egg! Or else you may find yourself with a dozen eggs!

Some species can give you a special egg. One that contains a rare Pre-evolution that you cannot get anywhere else. Availavle Sapphire Pre-Evs are:

Marill + Marill = AZURILL
Wobbuffet + Wobbuffet = WYNAUT
Pikachu + Pikachu = PICHU
Jiggypuff + Jigglypuff = IGGLYBUFF

If you are not using a twosome that can produce a Pre-Ev, then you will get the evolution below that type:

Grumpig + Grumpig = Spoink
Xatu + Xatu = Natu
And so on...

You can also aquire help from items given to your pokemon. Like Wobbaffet and Marill. To increase the chances of getting a Pre-Ev, give a Lax Incense to a Wobbuffet and a Sea Incense to a Marill.

To hatch the egg, walk around for a looonnnggg time. Eventually it will hatch and you'll name your baby and everything.

Your hatched pokemon gets moves from both parents.

.: Level-Up moves both parents posess have a chance of being passed to the baby.
.: If the Fater knows a TM or HM move, it also could be passed to the hatched pokemon.
.: Baby pokemon automatically learn Egg moves from the Father(not the mother).

The baby pokemon's type takes after it's mother ALWAYS. However, the gender of the hatchling can vary. The baby will ALWAYS start at level 5.

Breeding isn't hard to do, you just need to pair up the right pokemon! Your baby could end up with a powerful move that it's species can't learn! OR wont learn for many levels!

HAVE FUN BREEDING!!

link directly to this cheatCatching Latias

Ok, this is how i caught my latias. Firstly get to mauville (fly wlak, ride doesn't matter). Now go on your pokedex go down to Latias (or Latios, but as i said, not sure if it works). If latias is no were near mauville. then take one of the four paths until a sign saying "route ____" appears. Check your pokedex in case Latios/Latios is in that route. If it is keep searching grass for it. Checking every now and then your pokedex, for the area of Latias. If Latias/Latios wasn't in that route go back into mauville and once again check your pokedex. Keep repeating this procedure until Latias is in your route. Mauville seems to be a good place to do this because there are four routes that latias/latios can appear on. If you find Latias/Latios appears on another town more often then mauville then use that town. But i found mauville was good. I caught my Latias this way in 5 mins, I found it 4 times. And caught it with a luxury ball (i would save master ball for rayqauza (not sure on spelling). If you have a ball that you think wood be better than use it.

Verified by: Tycrazy710 Submitted by: pokemonlova on July 31, 2007

link directly to this cheatCombat Tips.

Here is a list of tips that may help you when you're in a tough situation.

Swagger:Best friend or worst enemy? When you use this move, the target becomes confused, but its attack is increased by immense proportions. This is a really stupid idea against a pokemon with crazy attack to begin with, such as Marowak or Hitmonlee. Although these 2 pokemon will never be encountered in this game, be cautious when you use it on one of the new fighting pokemon, like Hariyama, or Meditite/Medicham after they pump themselves up. But...this could be a good advantage to you if your pokemon is a ghost. You pretty much max your targets attack, but it can't harm you due to your normal, fighting, flying and none special attack resistance.

Encore is the perfect move when your opponent either does something stupid, or boosts their stats. For instance say your opponent used the move Leech Seed. Initiately, the attack will seed you and leech life each turn. But once you're seeded it does nothing, and encore can prevent more damage from being given to you. A few more attacks that do nothing after the initiation are: Helping Hand (Minun/Plusle), Thunder Wave, and Yawn.

Try and cover as many weaknesses as possible. Pokemon like Starmie can almost cover each element. Starmie can learn moves like Thunder, typical water moves, and Psychic moves. Also, watch your double elements. Double elements=Double weaknesses. With pokemon like Relicanth (water/rock), grass does double damage, but Relicanth can cover double the amount of types.

Destiny Bond and Perish Song are near useless if your target is gonna switch out. Try and get a Trapinch with Destiny Bond. Trapinch's passive ability, Arena Trap, prevents switching. Its a guarenteed KO. But say a Graveler, or Weezing is being Destiny Bonded or Perish Songed. Use Self Destruct, and take them down with you, to make at least some effort to screw up their plan. A good strategy, against your friends who would typically throw their best pokemon out first, would be for you to go out with Trapinch and one of his evolutions with Destiny Bond/Perish Song (You'll have to breed to get it.) Right off the bat, their best pokemon is done.

Another good combo would be an accuracy raising combo+an instant KO (sheer cold, fissure). Or, a Starmie with Rain Dance and Thunder. Rain Dance guarentees a hit with Thunder, plus it boosts all water moves. Same sort of combo with solar beam and sunny day. Solar beam takes up only one turn with Sunny Day in effect.

Don't waste a move when your target is in the air, under ground or submerged, use a stat booster, or Surf/Swift. Surf or swift will still give damage to the target, while a stat booster can give you more of an edge for the rest of the battle.

A common strategy for Muk'ers is to Minimize, then blast themselves with stat changes. Use Haze, then hes done. Haze cancels out all stat changes.

Sure you can hold down the B button on your GBA, but what is even better is to just shut the game off.

Once you beat Steven and you get past all the hoopla with may and proffesor,he takes you into the champion room. Once you register your pokemon on that contraption of his, you will see a screen that says "SAVING...DO NOT TURN OFF POWER!"...well listen to it, dont turn it off, but once you see its gone and your Pokemon are showing up with their data, shut it off. Once you turn it back on you will be in your room which would happen if you waited out the credits anyways.

Have a Pokemon that knows the move "Endeavor". Get into the Pokemon battle that you want to catch, make sure you have only 1 HP left. When you get into a battle with a Pokemon that you want to catch. Use the move "Endeavor". You will get the Pokemon down to 1 HP. Use an Ultra Ball, and you will have a lot better of a chance to catch the Pokemon.

link directly to this cheatEasy catching of god pokemon(kogre, Rayquaza, Latias, etc...)

Before going into the Cave of Origin save ure game. U have to catch kyogre at all cost without using ure master ball. Bring a pokemon lvl 47+ and bring kyogres lifes down to the red. Now keep using ultra balls and u mght be able to catch him, if not after 10 turns start trowing timer balls which will catch him whith no trouble.

These are the best move for kyogre:
-thunder, tm u can buy in lilycove
-ice beam, he already has it
-Hydro pump, as it too
-Ure choice, i leave body slam because whitout it kyogre runs out of pp very fast.

Now train kyogre during the pokemon league by the time u beat all four plus the champion he should be around lvl 53-54. if u want u can redo the pokemon league to trainhim

Now head to Sky Pillar and go meet Rayquaza. (to get pass the holes in the ground a practised alot on cycling road by getting a time under 9:30 and no crashes.

To catch rayquaza use kyogre to bring him down to the red and watch out for his rest and outrage. and trow him ultraballs then timer balls u should catch him, this mite take several tries to do but don't use ure master ball.

Now to catch Latias, run around the hoenn region and when u run into him, he will just run away i am not sure if u can battle him again so use ure master ball. U can also use wobbuffet whoes special abelity doesn't allow pokemon to run away, but i don't reccomend that cuz if he faints u might not be able to catch him before he flees.

* I have mentionned alot the timer balls, and this is now to get em:

- Fly to verdentuff and take the passage that goes beteen verdentuf and rustbody when u come out the guy u saved from team aqua in petalburg forest will be there.

- talk to him, he will start blabing and leave know go to the pokemart in rustboro u will be able to buy timer balls and repeat balls

link directly to this cheatEasy Heracross!!!

I noticed that the pattern you press the A and B buttons while catching a pokemon work differently depending on the species. For those of you who simply MUST have a Heracross, try this: Go into the Safari zone, use the path where you need the Acro bike to get passed, go into the grass and begin looking. When you find it, Try holding down the A button and rubbing the B button. You may have to keep trying like that but it SHOULD make it easier. If you think it will take you a long time to find one, stay in one spot of the grass and just tap the arrows.
P.S. It may be hard to stay in one place while turning

link directly to this cheatEasy Level for bad pokemon

If you want to train a bad pokemon, then follow these tips:
1. Find The Camera people called Gabby and Ty. Have a pokemon holding EXP share. Then, Have a level 70 or better pokemon. Put Both in battle.

2. Make sure your good pokemon knows surf. Then, use it on Exploud and Magneton. This way, it knocks out both pokemon at once. The EXP points are split in half, so you can do this over and over because Gabby and Ty always want to battle.

When your pokemon gets to the level desired, you can stop this method and put him in the Elite Four and grow there too.

P.S. I think there is a hold item that lets you double the amount of EXP points in play. If there isn't, then don't worry about this. Also, an easy Pokemon to grow is Altaria and Walrein. I did this strategy and got both at lv 100 in 1 day!

link directly to this cheatEasy starting tip

Best starting pokemon to use before you get legendary pokemon:
1. Torchic (Fire) Although doesn't help with Roxanne, helps with everything else and is one of the only powerful Fire pokemon in Sapphire. Combusken also learns Double-Kick at level 16.
2. Lotad (Water-Grass) Learns Absorb at lv8. Even though it only knows Astonish when you get it, only battle Wurmples, Shroomish, and Lotad until it gets to lv8.
3. Tailow (Normal-Flying) Good, useful Pokemon. Already knows Peck. Learns wing attack at level 14 (I think). Easy to train in Petalburg Woods.
4. Poocheeyana (Dark) Although weak at first, he evolves into a powerful Mighteyana. That is the most powerful dark pokemon in the game. Also helps with Tate & Lisa.
5. Ralts (Psychic) Yep, he's there. Keep looking and you'll find him. Powerful psychic pokemon. If you don't want him, you can find Abra in the Dewford cave. Good while teaching him Shadow Ball. WARNING: Abra is at level 8. That is a tough level to come back from.
6. Aron (Rock-Steel) Weak at first, but evolves into a powerful pokemon later. You must wait till the Dewford Cave to catch him though.

These starting Pokemon cover Grass, Water, Ghost, Bug, Psychic, Electric, Flying, Normal, Fighting, Ice and Steel. I have them all at level 100 in their farthest stage and I beat the game in 3 days!

Elite Four Breakdown:
Sydney: Tailow, Torchic
Ghost Leader: Ralts, Lotad
Glacia: Torchic, Lotad
Drake: (Make sure one of your pokemon knows Ice Beam or another Ice attack.)
Steven: Torchic, Aron, Lotad, Tailow

Some people go and just evolve their Pokemon right away. Sometimes it is better that you wait. Say with a Pokemon like Torchic. When it is ready to evolve don't let it by pressing the B button. That way if you train it to LV. 30 without letting it evolve, it will learn better moves earlier. Then after it learns all its moves then evolve it. You will have a super powerful Pokemon.

This tip is on how Wurmple evolves, along with how Eevee evolves into Espeon/Umbreon.

Wurmple: Wurmple evolves completely random into either Silcoon/Cascoon. The time of day has no effect on his/her evolution. His/Her gender and personality don't matter either.

Eevee:

To evolve Eevee into Espeon, you must max his/her happiness stats, and raise him/her 1 level between 12 PM and 12 AM (Morning time).

To evolve Eevee into Umbreon, you must max his/her happiness stats, and raise him/her 1 level between 12 AM and 12 PM (Evening time).

You can visit the girl in the Southwest part of Verdanturf Town to find out if your pokemon loves you or not.
