So I’m trying to replay some gen 3 pokemon. I played Saphire as a kid and I loved it. Going back now as an adult, I’m really struggling. I’m finding it incredibly grindy, and I die inside a little every time I see a long stretch of tall grass. What have I forgotten? What am I missing now that I got as a kid? Any tips?
Biggest tip I have is playing an emulator so you can up the speed. Pokemon games as they progressed got slow. And I don’t mean just the grind I mean like the game play itself like shit took longer. Moves and every little animation took longer to happen. Jesus Christ doing HM moves by like the Gen 4 were just excruciatingly slow I had to stop playing. Absolutely emulator double or triple speed helps tremendously.
