He will even show you azumarill. He will ask you whether you want GIRL or BOY. Once you chose, name it. After that scene, Professor will tell you that your characters adventure is about to unfold. and he'll say, "I'll see you later". ============================================================================== :::::::::::::::::::::: Chapter 1: Stone Badge :::::::::::::::::::::: --------------- Littleroot Town --------------- After the introduction finished you will be in a truck. The truck will go to your new house in Houen. After the truck parks, go outside and your Mom will surprise you. "Hi! ...., good to see you, do you like a new home?" She take you inside and tell you to fix your clock. Once your in your room, go in front of the clock and change the time. Once you finished setting it up, you MOM will surprise you again and asked to walk outside. Go downstairs and your MOM will surprise you again, She will let you watch your father in the TV. Too bad, you can't watch it because it's too small. ^_^ After that scene go outside and visit your neighbor in the east of your house.

Go upstairs of her house and you will a girl, talk to her and you will SURPRISE HER!! Once you talked to her, she will tell you that she needs to go outside. She will go outside and leaves you for a while. Now, go outside and head out of town. When you get out of town, you will see a guy shouting for help. He will ask you to get a Pokemon from his bag.

YOu can go to the P.C pokemon center to heal your pokemon. To tell you the truth, you have no business on going in this town yet. Go outside of Pokemon Center and you will see a girl standing east of Pokemon Center. Talk to her and she will take you to her P.M Pokemon Mart. You can buy certain things in Pokemon Mart, like Potion, Awakening, Antidote, Paralyze Heal, and many more except POKEBALL!!! Once you've done your business in POKEMON MART, go north and find MAY/ BRANDON in ROUTE 103. --------- Route 103 --------- You will find MAY if you go all the way to the north of Oldale town.

Pokemon Moves/ Abilities ****************************************************************************** NOT YET DONE.... ****************************************************************************** XV. Secrets ****************************************************************************** 1.Once you beat the Elite Four, you can go to BATTLE TOWER so you can be a Pokemon Leage Champion. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2.After you beat the game, you can now hunt Latios if you're playing Sapphire or Latias if you're playing RUBY. In Pokemon Contest houses, you may enter your Pokemon into a contest for a chance to win a medal. However if you enter without any Porok level ups, you will have a very low chance of winning. The way to raise this is to go out and find the trees with berries on them, then press A. You will then receive 1 to 4 berries. If you now go to a Pokemon House, you will see small gray machines on the right. The empty one on the top is for multi-player. For now, find a house in a city that only has a man at the bottom. Go to the other side of the machine and press A. You will then be asked to pick a Porok (berry) and throw it in. The spinner will come down and start moving. The objective is to press A just when the spinner hits your arrow: Circle Within A Circle: Direct hit (much faster) Circle: Near hit (slightly faster) X: Miss (slower: The faster you (and your opponent) get the spinner moving, the better. Once the meter at the top hits the end, it is over and the results and the fastest RPM the spinner was moving will appear. You will then receive a Blended Porok. The level of it depends on how fast you got the machine going. The average appears to be 11. Next, open your Special Items Pocket and go to your "Pez dispenser" type item (which you must have to play the game -- it is obtained from the girl in the first contest house). You will then pick a Blended Porok and feed it to a pet, making one of his Pokemon Contest stats (viewable in the Poke-Navi) go up. Some can even raise multiple stats. The more you do this, the better chance you have of winning. Hint: Recommended starting Pokemon: The best type of starting Pokemon (in order) are: Water, Grass, and Fire. Information in this section was contributed by Omar Field-Rahman. Torchic proves to be the best as you get farther in the game, but proves to be difficult in the beginning. Mudkip is strong in the beginning, but weaker against the Elite Four. Mudkip is a good choice if playing Pokemon Ruby. Treeko is somewhat neutral, but is best to choose if playing Pokemon Sapphire because of Team Aqua. Hint: Blaziken or Cumbusken: Recommended moves: if you have a Combusken or Blaziken, the best moves for it are Ember (can replace with Flare Kick if desired), Double Kick, and since it is able to learn a Bird type move, Steel Wing or any other powerful TM flying based move. Also give it an HM (preferably Cut). Hint: Regis: Use the following steps to capture the three mysterious Pokemon called the Regis. Go to the southeast part of Route 134 and dive into the water. It is difficult to get to due to the currents, and it is the only deep part of that route. You will find a cave. At a part of the cave, there are some Brail writing on the wall. At that point, float to the top of the water, where you will end up in a cavern. Go into the last room by going forward, use Dig, and in the next room you must do something strange. Put a Relicanth in the front of your party, and a Wailord at the last place. Walk to the top of the room and read the Brail . You will trigger an earthquake, which will unlock the Regis. You can fish up a Wailmer to evolve at level 40 at Route 122, and find a Relicanth outside Sootopolis in the underwater grass (rarely, but it is there). Hint: Defeating your Rival: When facing your rival at the start that has Treecko, use a level 6 Wurmple; Mudkip use a level 7 Silccoon or Cascoon; Torchic use a level 5 to 6 Wingull. Wingull can be found in Route 103. Wurmple can be found in Route103. To get Cascoon or Silccoon, evolve Wurmple at level 7.
