HOW EASILY CAN YOU GET EVERY GOLD SYMBOL IN POKEMON EMERALD'S BATTLE FRONTIER?

The Emerald Frontier is still one of if not the best feature in ANY Pokemon game. The Factory alone can be played basically infinitely, it's like a little Pokemon Stadium 3 on your GBA, a game within a game.

I always loved how the Frontier Brains felt like actually intimidating trainers. Pulling out legendaries and having frightening teams.

IF YOU'RE STRONG YOU'LL SURVIVE, AND YOU'LL KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE IT'S THE BATTLE FRONTIER

You know, no matter what anyone says, the Battle Frontier will always look like what I imagine an actual Pokemon theme park to look like

18:26 "I only managed to win because she missed Feint Attack." Um...

"How fast can you get all gold stars in the ORAS Battle frontier" :(

It's amazing how much effort Game Freak put into this portion of the game which was likely never touched by most people who owned it due to the difficulty.

5:24 Anabel's Latios: "Who are you?" John's Latios: "The real question is who are YOU?"

“You are not allowed to use legendaries” John: I chose Latios

In gen 3 the elemental punches are all special attacks thats why anabelles Alakazam has them

How long would it take to get every Medal in Black 2 and White 2??

2 berries? You complete the entirety of the battle frontier and you get TWO BERRIES?

"Congratulations on beating the toughest trainers I could find and overcoming all of these challenging facilities! Here are some berries now begone from me"

An interesting anecdote related to the Battle Frontier: I used to steal Battle Factory Pokémon using cheat codes when I was younger, and I wanted to see their stats because I was curious and this stuff wasn't fully documented at the time, unlike now. After transferring them through multiple generations and exporting them to the Make-a-Wish GTS website through my DS (back when Nintendo WFC was still operational, mind you), I learned that the Pokémon all had fixed IVs, but they were surprisingly low and I had no idea why. What I didn't know at the time was that the IVs change depending on your win streak, but due to a bug, it doesn't count streaks from the Factory itself, but rather from the Battle Tower. My streak was, of course, clear, meaning every Pokémon I stole had fixed IVs of 3 in every stat. It was a neat learning experience, to say the least!

Loved the Battle Frontier in Emerald!!! My favorite is probably the Battle Pyramid because of the Mystery Dungeon-like layout. I love how innovative they were with all the battling formats. While it's nice and convenient that typically the strongest Pokemon can win every facility and that you can do it all with pretty much one team with tweaks like you did, I do kind of wish there was a facility or two that favored some of the more bizarre, weaker Pokemon out there somehow! Was really glad to see Anabel return in S/M/US/UM, and I can only hope we maybe see the other frontier brains again someday. They're all so mysterious, and I wish we knew more about them! And props to you for getting all the gold symbols! When I was a kid, I think I only got the silver symbols in the Battle Pike and Battle Pyramid from sheer luck.

All the elemental punch moves were special moves in gen 3. They'd be perfectly serviceable on Alakazam. Not having psychic is certainly odd, though

'Battle Tower is the least fun mode'. Wait, isn't that the one they kept carrying over in 6th and 7th gen?

"You want to be as prepared as you can for anything" No amount of preparation can save you from the ultimate streak ender: Rhydon with Quick Claw and Horn Drill.

I see you watched wersters 20h+ "speedrun" of pokemon emerald all gold symbols too lmao

I'm here seething internally because I had Pokemon Emerald when I just started high school and barely knew about Pokemon besides the anime. Needless to say, the Battle Frontier kicked my ass... A LOT. Basically, it forced me to _git gud_. I grinded the Elite Four a lot to get the Pokemon I wanted to level 100, because I thought the Level 50 format sucked. And yeah... I also completely lucked out at the Battle Palace, because I knew jack about natures at the time. Hate that facility. When I finally got all seven gold symbols, and saved for the last time, I still remember that gameplay time as if it were yesterday... 398 hours, 17 minutes.
