What was the point of this anyway
>>59047515To let you catch Sudowoodo and Smeargle, who weren't available in FRLG, and in the latter's case, offer a place where it's incredibly easy to smuggle a valuable move onto Smeargle since they're all level 40-50 and can thus likely survive most iterations of useful attacking moves.
>>59047526Why's it so big though
>>59047750the battle frontier is big
>>59047750So you can explore and find all the EV boosting vitamins tucked away in the area, meant to give you a slight helping hand in gearing up new catches you want to use for the frontier.
>>59047515>zoomer experiences soul for the first time
>>59047750Because they hid one of each stat drink throughout. A little extra exploration.
>>59047515
What's strange is that they didn't program any encounter in the water
>>59047526I assumed it was so you could Sketch useful moves from the Battle Frontier 'mons, but isn't Smeargle's moveset reset after Battle Frontier battles (since you can't earn exp. from them)?
>>59047515JOHTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>59048100It's kinda funny how a big part of FRLG's and Emerald's postgame is simply getting access to Johto Pokémon (which is actually a big draw due to the Ruby & Sapphire Proto-Dexit).
