I did not like Pokémon Emerald. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I’ve been replaying though the Pokémon games for the first time since they came out.

I just finished Gold and started Emerald last week. I was really looking forward to it as I always hear great things about emerald.

But I have not been enjoying it. I feel like I’m constantly under leveled and even when I have a higher level than other Pokémon, I feel weaker.

The map has been a bit annoying going in circles for the first half of the game. I am at the 5th gym now, and decided to drop it and move to gen 4.

I also have not been happy with the team I built. It seems that the move sets I have are not really that good. I’m at level 20-30 and I’m just getting my first good moves for some of my team.

Emerald is my favorite pokemon game. I started with Leaf Green, then played Ruby or Sapphire, then Fire Red, and then the other Ruby or Sapphire. Then Emerald came out, I liked that it was a mix of the Ruby and Sapphire story. Plus it added a lot of overworld use of abilities like synchronize, flame body, keen eye and others.
