First- and second-generation Pokemon
I've been searching for a while for answers, but can't seem to find any. The Pokedex description table on each Pokemon page leads me to assume so, but can first- and second-generation Pokemon (such as Charizard or Lugia) be obtained in Sapphire and Ruby? And if so, how can this be accomplished? // SzayelAporro 21:35, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- By Trading with a game that can catch those Pokemon. In that example, Charizard is obtained from FireRed or LeafGreen, and Lugia from Pokemon XD.--PikamasterADV 21:36, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- Yep. Or you could use a GameShark, but that ruins the fun. As long as you've gotten the Sapphire and Ruby in FRLG, you can trade with RS. All 386 Pokémon as of Gen III can be traded freely among Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed, LeafGreen, Colosseum, and XD, and Box can connect to R/S/E/FR/LG to do direct transfers so long as the game has 100 Pokémon caught in its Pokédex.

- Thanks, guys. You've no idea how stressed looking for a simple answer was making me. One more question, however: when you do catch said Pokemon, is a new section for a National Pokedex added or what? I'm curious to know how the games handle this. // SzayelAporro 22:32, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
