How does one just stumble upon a used Japanese copy of Sapphire?
>>58958397I usually just lift a rock and find a copy of pokemonit's really weird
>>58958434really? they should be visible on the ground appearing like pokeballs, but careful they can be sussy sometimes
>>58958676amooguss
>>58958328I love getting used copies of pokemon games and finding interesting stuff on the save file, really tells a story sometimes. In your case the 97 pokeballs and 5 pokemon caught indicate big ambitions and no follow through. Probably why he never found seafloor cavern desu
>>58958795Yeah maybe I should do more digging.They DID trigger the Submarine at Slateport, and as far as I can tell never ever had a Pokemon with fly. They dived into Sootopolis and found Paciiflog.The save file is on that rainy route by the Weather place with a mid 20s Kirlia in lead. I wonder what happened. I was originally just gonna transfer out the 5 mons, give them the Masterball and some rare TMs, you know so I could have them in my main Emerald game(I only have 5 empty box slots anyway), but if I'm remembering right the Regi's should be available and if I beat the Seafloor Cavern Kyogre and Rayquaza should be available. I've never actually played Ruby or Sapphire, just Emerald like 4 times because my battery repairs kept breaking. I have a Ruby cart, but it's got an OG 2000s savefile that traded with people so I don't want to reset it
Bump
>>58958841> it's got an OG 2000s savefile that traded with people so I don't want to reset itMan I wish I still had my OG Diamond save, so many trades made back then.
>>58961168I bought it in 2014 for 40 bucks and so I’d have it for when I got a bonus disc to get Jirachi, that second part only happened in 2023. I traded off some of the Legendaries cant remember where they ended up, and I used it to get version exclusives. And I think I eventually found the roaming Lati. I also discovered that secret bases apparently chain, because the empty base from my old Emerald save file (from the broken battery) somehow ended up in my modern Emerald via the Ruby. Oh and I somehow mixed records when trying to get a Surskit swarm and ended up transferring the TV events back and forth between Ruby and Emerald for weeks. Like all 4 events (Berry master, vitamin deal, something something) just kept circulating.I completed my regional dex in Emerald(eventually found a bastard witb Sapphire and bought a Lunatone off him), ran out of box room. Got the other starters from the Ruby cart he had all 3 from buddies (and he also had multiple legends, but again, those got siphoned off somewhere). Been hunting Mirage Island for a long while and sometimes doing the rental facility, got Silver.Also have an essentially completed FireRed, just missing the post-game exclusives since the guy I bumped into with Leafgreen was pre-E4. (Also he nicknamed his Sandshrew like a jackass) and my childhood leafgreen was stolen at camp years ago.Wish I had Pokemon box
>>58961505>and bought a Lunatone off himlmao you got scammedjust buy a bunch of boxless games and you'll be fine
>>58958328
>>58961738He reset to get the Trader NPC for me and made a cool secret base
