Finally finished a guide on how to completely train a Pokémon in the generation 3 games. It took a while to make so I hope you enjoy and it helps other trainers raise powerful Pokemon! For right now there is only a video version of the guide however I do plan on creating a readable version.
Topics covered in the video:
IV Breeding: Innate points a Pokémon has which influences stats. Selectively breeding strong Pokemon can pass down IVs from parents to eggs.
Natures: Increases a stat by 10% but decreases another by 10%. In Emerald, this can use done somewhat easily.
Egg Moves: Special moves a Pokemon can only learn by breeding with another species of Pokemon.
Breeding Strategies: Methods for breeding IVs, Natures, and Egg Moves are outlined.
EV Training: Points a Pokemon can earn by defeating other Pokemon. How to earn them and where to go is detailed.
Level Training: My favorite locations to earn levels quickly.
Example: We also show from start to finish how this is accomplished with an example at the end of the video!
In order to achieve maximum stats on a Pokemon, a Pokemon needs to have perfect IVS, a beneficial nature with that stat, and maximum EVs. A Pokemon can only have 1 true maximum stat since the nature is requires for that 10% boost.
By doing some or all of the training methods above, a Pokemon trained will be must stronger and even more prepared for battle! Check out the video if you haven’t already for more information.
Take care everyone and enjoy your Pokemon adventures!
