The Safari Zone (Japanese: サファリゾーン Safari Zone) is a special Pokémon preserve where trainers can enter to capture certain types of Pokémon. The entrance is on Hoenn's Route 121.
For $500, the player will receive 30 Safari Balls. Certain areas can only be accessed with the Mach Bike, Acro Bike, Surf or Rock Smash. Another area will open up to the east, with a pathway directly north of the entrance once the Elite Four are defeated in Emerald.
When a wild Pokémon appears, no Pokémon may be sent out to battle it: catching Pokémon here, as in all Safari Zones, requires sheer luck. There are four options in the battle screen: Throw a Safari Ball, throw a PokéBlock, go near, and run away. Throwing PokéBlocks makes a Pokémon less likely to run, but makes it harder to catch; while going near does the reverse, making it easier to catch but more likely to run.
