Emerald (Adventures): Difference between revisions

Emerald debuted in ''[[PS303|Never Spritz a Knotty Sudowoodo]]'', where he arrived at the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} and rescued [[Todd Snap|Todd]], a reporter, from a wild {{p|Sudowoodo}} he angered. Afterward, Emerald crashed the opening ceremony press conference and announced his plan to conquer the Battle Frontier. While they initially refused Emerald's challenge and almost had him banned, the [[Frontier Brain]]s decided to allow Emerald to participate when the press mistook his intrusion for a publicity stunt. As the Frontier would not open for another seven days, Emerald had until then to complete all seven facilities.

The next day, in ''[[PS305|Interesting Interactions Involving Illumise]]'', Emerald challenged the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Factory}}. Despite having a team of random Pokémon, Emerald eventually managed to defeat the Factor Head, {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}}, and obtain the Knowledge [[Symbol]]. Later that night, Emerald revealed to Todd that he took the {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}} he used to defeat Noland. With Latios and Latias' assistance, Emerald deduced that Sceptile was not a rental Pokémon and had been planted in the Battle Factory by someone other than Noland.

In ''[[PS308|As Luck Would Have It, Kirlia]]'', Emerald challenged the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pike}}. As the facility had no rental Pokémon, Emerald instead used a party of Pokémon received from Crystal. After making his way through the various traps located in the Battle Pike, Emerald faced off against {{FB|Pike Queen|Lucy}}, the Pike Queen, and won, earnin the Luck Symbol. Afterward, he, Todd, and Latias searched through the rooms of the Battle Pike to calm down suspicious Pokémon that were also planted like Sceptile.

In ''[[PS311|A Dust-Up With Dusclops]]'', Emerald challenged the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pyramid}} with another set of Pokémon received from Crystal, Emerald traversed through the Pyramid's dark maze. After making his way to the peak, Emerald faced off against the Pyramid King, {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} and his powerful [[Brandon's legendary titans|Pokémon]] {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}. Eventually, with Sceptile's assistance, Emerald managed to defeat Brandon and earn the Brave Symbol.

In ''[[PS314|Sneaky Like Shedinja]]'', Emerald challenged the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Arena}}. Instead of another party of Pokémon from Crystal, Emerald instead used Sceptile, Sudowoodo, and Dusclops. During his battle against {{FB|Arena Tycoon|Greta}}, the Arena Tycoon, Emerald managed to win by cheering his Pokémon on, something he wouldn't do normally. After winning and obtaining the Guts Symbol, Emerald and his Pokémon passed out from exhaustion and are taken to a hotel room by Greta and Todd. Assuming his regular clothing would be uncomfortable to sleep in, Todd and Greta try to change Emerald into a pair of pajamas, only to discover that the boy is unusually short, much more so than they had expected. Todd had Greta pretend she didn't see anything and sent her out of the room.

In ''[[PS319|Verily Vanquishing Vileplume I]]'', Emerald challenged the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Dome}}. While on a bathroom break, Emerald met {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}, the two other Hoenn [[Pokédex holder]]s. When they revealed they were sent to assist with the Jirachi capture mission, Emerald rejected their help and ran off. Ruby and Sapphire also entered in the Dome tournament, eventually making it to the semi-finals alongside Emerald and {{FB|Dome Ace|Tucker}}, the Dome Ace. Emerald faced off against Ruby and won while Tucker defeated Sapphire, allowing both to face each other in the finals. Finding Ruby and Sapphire's constant talk about bonding with Pokémon annoying, Emerald had them kicked out of the Dome and decided to switch his party out, stating that he'd be insulting his Pokémon if he bonded with them. After receiving his new Pokémon, Emerald battled against Tucker, but was easily defeated.

In ''[[PS325|Standing in the Way with Starmie]]'', a depressed Emerald left to go challenge the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Palace}}, where he went up against {{FB|Palace Maven|Spenser}}, the Palace Maven. Spenser explained that in order to battle against him, Emerald must use three trusted Pokémon and have them fight without his commands. Before their battle could begin, Spenser received a call from his fellow Brains revealing that Guile managed to capture Jirachi and has sent an army of rental Pokémon to attack the public. Putting his trust in Sceptile, Sudowoodo, and Dusclops, Emerald left them behind and went with Ruby, Sapphire, and Noland to confront Guile at the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Tower}}. Along the way, Emerald calmed down a rampaging {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Mantine}}, and {{p|Mawile}}. In order to battle, Noland decided to use Mawile while allowing Emerald to keep the other three.

|desc={{p|Dusclops}} was a wild Pokémon in the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pike}} that Emerald determined was from [[Mt. Pyre]]. Like Sudowoodo, he followed him after the incident and joined him in the Artisan Cave in ''[[PS317|Sneaky Like Shedinja]]''. He was seen battling at the Battle Dome, battling a {{tc|Pokémon Ranger}} early on, and tying with Ruby's Rara. He was then seen battling at the Battle Palace against {{FB|Palace Maven|Spenser}}'s Pokémon. He is level 61, has a Rash [[nature]], and his [[Characteristic]] is "often lost in thought."}}
