>beat the game with team over lv50>battle tower only has lv50 and lv100 modesWhat now? Train my team to lv100 before attempting battle tower? Or breed them for favorable natures and EV train them properly to lv50?
>>59073807You want a proper team for the battle tower, it's the gloves-off endgame area.
>playing RS over EmeraldKWAB
>>59073807>What now?You move to a better game like BW.
>>59073807Level 100 mode scales down to your highest level mon brought.It's actually called Open Mode.
>>59073807Just gen up a perfect Salamence, Gyarados and Latios. You literally don't need anything else for the Battle Tower.
>>59073862you don't even need perfect IVs that's just a crutch brainlets use.
>>59073857That's Emerald only. RS tower had fixed teams at level 100.
>>59073869Nah, it ensures maximum success odds. You have to mitigate bad RNG as much as possible, else you're gonna get fucked sooner rather than later.
>>59073908You're gonna win faster by using random IVs with good movesets than breeding in gen III, breeding mechanics before destiny knot are complete cancer
>>59073928That's why I said gen 'em. No one in their right mind is going to get legit perfect mons in gen 3.
>>59073807>What now?Move to Emerald and play the superior Battle Factory
>>59073807Why the fuck did you play RS, there's no reason to play it over Emerald unless you REALLY REALLY want your protagonist with a different colored headband
Don't play Battle Facilities from before Gamefreak even bothering adding BP?
Does FRLG have a Battle Tower or something to sink time for the post game?
>>59073975No, there's nothing at all except for the Pokemon League rematches.Trainer Tower's not even worth mentioning because you can just cheese it with a Level 3 Electrode.
>>59073807>What now?realize that gen 3 was the real dumpster fire of pokemon all along (except for the mystery dungeon games)
>>59073984Oh well, I guess it's also good for the game to have a proper end too
>>59073953true either gameshark/inject or eng manip, breeding is cancer in gen 3.
>>59073992I've always been a firm believer of the fact that, due to how cryptic and obstuse EV and IV manipulation was back then, that you weren't supposed to actually spend an autistic amount of time breeding for the perfect pokemon and was just a bunch of random variables to make each pokemon unique.
>>59073975Sevii Island quest, getting your trainer card stars and the trainer card stickers. Lorelei's plushies, completing the regional dex, etc.
>>59074005It is/was. Hence why it was all hidden and cumbersome, the PvP was an afterthought
>>59074017As usual with most Nintendo games, the competitive aspect was forced on it by manchilds wanting everyone to take their kid's games as serious business.
>>59074028The Pokemon brand could've just not hosted VGC and the comptards would've stayed in their make-believe playpen, but unfortunately the greedy twats in charge saw dollar signs and yen signs when they realized they could squeeze extra cash out of the comptards.
>>59073862Thunderrrrrrrrrr.
>>59073807Really the main post-game thing to do in the older games was to just keep battling in the Elite Four with different teams and then starting in Crystal doing the Battle Tower, as well as other outside of game challenges like Stadium>do I create a brand new better optimized team for level 50?YesAlso for RS you still have>the battle-e card battles with the 6 target trainers>climbing Mt. Battle in Colosseum's Battle Mode>completing all of the stadium-esque modes in Colosseum, with both singles and doubles
>>59073890who the fuck plays RS
>>59073840The Battle Tower is easier in RS than in Emerald. If you want the ribbons you do it in RS.
>>59073840Leveling to 100 is WAY easier in Ruby and Sapphire, because level 3 Zigzagoon have a 10% of getting Rare Candy whenever pickup activates. Emerald nerfed it so Pickup changes items based on level, so you can't just grab 6 Zigzagoon and beat up level 2 Pokemon to farm rare candies.
>>59074245Counterpoint: you can clone rare candies easily in Emerald
