When he said “I’ve had this Pokémon longer than some of you have been alive”, I felt that. 🤣

My first pokemon team ever was sceptile, hariyama, swellow, wailord, flygon, and torkoal. Will always have a special place in my heart ❤️

It's always refreshing to watch your gen 3 team videos, even if it's not meant to be competitive. I started my pokemon journey with sapphire and you added a whole lot to it, so I thought to take a moment and thank you for being a crucial part of my pokemon adventure. Thanks Mystic Umbreon!!!

Gen 3 definitely had the best line up of starters, you can't go wrong with any choice

I love your videos a lot when it's about in game playthroughs, I'm tired of basically EVERY poketuber I used to watch, talk about a Pokemon having an attack stat less than 569 and thus sucking. This positivity from you is much appreciated Mystic, I've been watching since 2019 and I love your team videos for the games, I always re-watch them, great work as always!!

Gen 3 will always have my heart, the first time I beat the game and really felt like a Pokémon Master!! 💙♥️💚

I am working on my Home living dex and I'm on Gen 3 rn. This video was perfectly timed for me as I still need to finish Ruby and Sapphire for their version exclusives. Love to see another team video man. Quality content as always!

A favorite Hoenn team of mine was my most recent one, in Emerald. The team consisted of Sceptile, Gardevoir, Tentacruel, Camerupt, Skarmory and SHINY Belossom. Yeah, full odds shiny, in gen 3. I was blown away too. Despite the grass type overlap, and a few underwhelming species, this team ended up being pretty strong. We even did a number on the Battle Frontier (with help from a Latios, admittedly). Very fond memories with this team, I won't soon forget these mons

As a pokemmo player, and fan of yours it would be really cool to see you do a mix of generations “best team” maybe taking 2 generations and building a best team! Keep up the good work!

Great timing. I came across this video today as I am starting another Emerald run. I call this playthrough the "D--khead" run. When you see my team, you'll know why. Here is my "D--khead" team (All 3 Neutral nature with emphasis on ATK/SP. Atk): 1. Swampert Return, Earthquake, Ice-Beam and Surf 2. Sableye (nicknamed D--khead) Fake-out, Shadow Ball, Detect and Faint Attack 3. Breloom Giga Drain, Brick Break, Toxic and Leech-Seed

I feel you on this brother. My gold version was stolen. The sceptile you have is slightly younger than the Ruby Blaziken I have from 2003, who is now in my Violet version

You’ve now convinced me to give Exploud a try for the first time 😅❤

I just started playing Emerald again just a couple weeks ago and I’m glad I did because I guess I didnt play it a lot as a kid. I don’t quite remember the story. This video came out at the perfect time and I think I might sub a couple of these onto my team.

Im in a playthrough of emerald as well! My current team is lairon, swellow, machamp, grovyle, tentacruel, and zigzagoon. I havent used swellow or the aron line in a hoenn run since emerald first came out, it's been interesting using them again!

Its one of my favorite things to do in Pokémon runs! Just grab anywhere from 2 - 4 Pokémon you never used and complete the game with them. Im currently running through Leaf Green and I'm using Sandslash, Starmie, and Ninetails because I simply never have before and I like the design on all of them.

Keep up the awesome work and videos love the video

Love the video you should do alternate team for chikorita and tootdile

Funny enough i was planning to try emerald on the suggestion of my friends Thx for the tips!

I love this game, I need to go back to play it but the nostalgia makes me sad. Blaziken is miss you buddy❤

My first game was Gold. I have a Blaziken from Emerald, he is my oldest Pokémon. In RSE I made a living dex, then to FRLG, DPP, & HGSS by then I was pretty much caught up. I still have those mons & have kept adding to the living dex through the years.

Nice team dude enjoyed this video.

My very first Hoenn run had both Kadabra and Tentacruel, it was a pretty solid team, but I do recommend you Ice Beam and Surf for Tentacruel (Toxic if you do competitive) and Psychic, Shadow Ball and an elemental Punch for Kadabra

The Exploud bit was GREAT!!!

Gen 2 is my favorite as well with 3 in a tight second as well. Definitely my longest playthroughs, especially Gold, Sapphire and LeafGreen

Ah yes, good old tentacruel. All the way from gen 1 to now still one of my favorites.❤

I've never actually played through Emerald since the only Gen 3 Hoenn game I owned was Sapphire and my most memorable Sapphire team is the first team that helped me beat Steven and actually complete the game (during my first few Sapphire playthroughs I would get stuck or just decide to start over for whatever reason so I used to reset the game before completing it). Eventually I was able to beat Sapphire and the team I did it with was: Blaziken, Crobat, Aggron, Claydol, Cacturne and Wailord.

I’ve always enjoyed Gen III. I’m actually wrapping up a Nuzelock (grinding a few levels out on Victory Road) in Emerald. I’m running Swampert, Walrein, Electrode, Crobat, Torkoal, and Claydoll. I’m more likely than not going to be fighting an uphill battle in the Elite 4 but it’s been fun regardless.

I’m playing through emerald rn and breloom with bulk up and mach punch completely carries the early game so much that I had to box it for awhile because it made the game seem to easy

I love the Billy Mays impressions!

Nice! Its half of my first Ruby team 👍 Blaziken Skarmory Crawdaunt Cacturne Dusclops Raichu

YOO I NAMED MY BLAZIKEN MCKICKIN TOO! Pokemon ruby was technally the first pokemon game i've ever played (it was on emulator but I still count it). Blaziken was technally the first mon i've ever used, and I named him McKicken (a bit diferent but same name premise). He has a moveset of flamethrower, brick break, aerial ace and overheat. He kicked a lot of butt. If I could show a picture I would, but the fact you also named your pokemon mckickin is really cool to me 👍❤

@MysticUmbreon This is a bit off topic (i dont know how else to get ahold of you) but what would a best team for each region if you use all 3 starters (though breeding or trade) i got curious about gen 9 as i just got scarlet. If you do a series about it could you start with gen 9 and if not message back with a team 🙏😁

When my friends and I learned about the battle frontier duplication glitch in emerald we spent hours upon hours making copies of pokemon lol I think I had a box of just mewtwos

I used Cacturne on an AS team once and it was a lot of fun

...are there any RomHacks that remake Gen II with Gen III graphics/art style and mechanics?

First team in ruby back in 2004 was Blaziken, Crawdaunt, Breloom, Claydol, Glalie and Dusclops. I've probably used just about every Hoenn mon at least once. My first OR team from last year was Hariyama, Shedinja, Froslass, Skarmory, Garchomp and Dragalge. Played through it so many times I don't use the starter anymore. My first and only emerald team (which I got in high school and still have) is cracked. Umbreon, Tyranitar, Milotic, Skarmory, Forretress and Shedinja. I traded over an Eevee from fire red. Have so many other good mons on there. Latios, Lapras, Venosaur, Gardevoir, Salamence, Steelix, Scizor, Flygon, Swampert, so many more since it has all my best from Fire red too

Its funny you mention the youngsters. I didn’t keep my games. But I finally just sold the Pokemon cards that I had since i was 10 years old. 25 years later 🤣

I recently learned my childhood copy is gone as well and I don't think I'll ever get over it. I bought another cart to replace it but it doesn't fill that void 😔

My gen 6 team may be my favorite ever they were so good. Greninja goodra venusaur heliolisk aegislash slyveon. This team was a terror in triple battles too

8:49 As someone who really tried to make a Cacturne work in a run of Pokémon Violet, I’ve got to say I just hope Haise works out for you in Gen 3, because all I got in Gen 9 was disappointment quickly replaced by Wo-Chien the moment I could.

bro what a coincidence that i just started a play through!

Emerald is my first Pokémon game that I’ve played. I wish Pokémon games like Emerald would be ported to the Nintendo Switch. But with some different changes such as buying multiple copies of a tm that isn’t bought at places like the Lilycove Department Store & Game Corner.

can you make 1 best pokemon team from generation 1-5 without starter, legendary and mythical

Actually playing through emerald currently and my team has changed a lot. Don’t even have a team of 6 and I’m approaching the final gym

Double Kick is surprisingly good. I prefer it to Brick Break. I love how each hit can crit separately.

The feeling of losing your cherished pokemon games is an insane one. When I was about the same age, my dogs got hold of my original copy of pokemon diamond, which was both action replayed to have a full shiny dex while also having all my og mons from my gen 3 games, including the only level 100 i ever had legitimately (rayquaza from sapphires first save) and my level 93 kyogre i caught in a mcdonalds on the way to my grand dads funeral (also og save). Then even worst a year or 2 later dogs got my original copy of black. And that had all my shinies/event pokemon. I sniped the even celebi for hgss while driving passed gamestop because my dad was mad at me and didnt want to reward me with a stop at game stop. The three shiny dogs. And a shiny crobat and steelix random encounters. Legit still so upset to this day about it.

that blaziken name is like my naming scheme in gen 5. i always use emboar and hes been named, smithfield, hatfield, mesquite, chicharon, babyback, and any other pork related name i could think of as a meat cutter lol.

Im going to do a desert team soon... All the desert pokemon: sandslash, cacturn, flygon and claydol + camerupt (not desert but its a camel and in the neighboring route) and either swampert or gligar

Billy makes me want to play Emerald again JUST for Exploud 😂😂

Emerald is also the game I had played the most out of all of them , in fact I’m playing it again right now 😭 I just beat Roxanne, this is definitely my favorite game in the franchise (Sun/Moon coming close second)

My team for emrald was Blaziken, Crobat (later replaced by Salamance in late game b4 facing E4), Starmie, Vileplume, Wallarien, and zigzagoon as HM salve was replaced by Metagross in post game

Yea ruby was my first game, my first team was blaziken, swellow, mightyena, flygon, manectric, and gyrados.

you should make more videos with pkmn from the indgenous to whatever region youre in

I just finished running swampert, breloom, crobat, flygon, manectric, and banette. Very solid for me. Slakoth as hm slave

5:54 that middle finger, tho 😂😂

Emerald my favorite game can’t wait to play it again and I’m an old man lol gonna be 32 on may 23rd

First and favorite play through of Emerald: Blaziken, Aggron, Walrein, Cacturn, Exploud/Delcatty, and Flygon

My first gen 3 team finale was blaziken kyogre magneton aggron dusclops and glalie if im remembering right.

Running currently through hoenn in alpha sapphire using a grass only gen 3 mons: mega sceptile, ludicolo, breloom, cacturne, cradily and tropius

Swampert, Tropius, Zangoose, Camerupt, Claydol, and Manetric was my most memorable run. I too am a gen 2 is best lover but Ruby and Safire saw a ton of play. Hands down Crystal on its own had the most play, Yellow was third because Gen three was so good.

Lets see... my main team was Blaziken, flygon, wishcash(sometimes walrein), Linoone(hm mule), salamence, and absol for no other reason than i love absol, but turns out there are a lot of psychic types in hoenn and it works out nicely.

My first team was Blaziken, Gardevoir, Salemance, Wishcash, Hariyama, and Chimeco for some reason lmao

Pretty neat.

How did you get all 3 starters on your team?

Swampert, Manectric, Camerupt, Gardevoir, Breloom, Metagross can’t do any better IMO

Can you plz do a best team for pokemon xd gale of darkness

I remember my first 3-4 years with pokemon games... If my team doesn't have Pikachu if he was in the game i felt my team wasn't complete as the anime make him seem so op n there was that in my mind that without Pikachu in muly team i would never win against the Elite 4 or the champion... 😅

My team for a Hoenn Playthrough would be 1, Secptile 2, Swellow 3, Pikachu 4, crawdaunt 5, Glalie 6, Torkoal a fully evolved verison of Ash’s Hoenn Team with Pikachu as the exception and so extras for situations 7, Gardevoir 8, Flygon 9, Absol.

I always feel conflicted, cos sceptile is my favourite starter final evolution but i like shiftry as well.

Currently Running thru the main game on my physical copy with: Shiny Sceptile, Shiny Breloom, Shiny Swellow, Perfect IVs Quiet Torkoal, Shiny Flygon and Shiny Milotic

How did you transfer your gba Pokemon to home?!?! 😱😱

My emerald team has always been blaziken, gyarados, gardevoir, aggron, flygon, salamence. I did replace flygon with manectric in some of my replays.

Caught a shiny tentacrule last play thru , only reason I ever used it lol

My first hoenn team was sceptile, slaking, seaking, exploud, latios, beautifly, ninjask, and breloom

You should do a top 10 Mons that you think are from different regions/generation than they actually are.

The Billy Mayes part was good

I just got the Analogue Pocket and fired up Emerald and just can't stop playing Emerald. My new team - Exploud - Blaziken - Gardevoir - Taillow - zogzagoon - Azamuril

Hoenn will always be special! My squad was Swampert, Gardevoir, Swellow, Breloom, Manetric, and Absol I also love using Ludicolo, Hariyama, Sabeleye, Pelipper, Cacturne, Flygon, Altaria, Zangoose, and walrein! So many fun evolutions in hoenn and such a wide pokedex. My fav region of all time and my favorite early dex to nuzlocke for for all the diversity

Based thumbnail B)

Is it bad that Pokemon Emerald is my 2nd most played pokemon game, but have never used neither Umbreon nor Espeon...

Kanto OG's check in 💪🏻

Sick team! (except Exploud)!

2:25 "oh brother THIS GUY STINKS!"

Wish these games could be on the switch

My first team was: Blaziken, Shiftry, Feebas, Glalie, Seadra and Groudon 😅

Bro you mogged me 2009😂

Losing soul silver, the game I had so many hours in after transferring many pokemon on there from diamond really is the heartbreak of my life

My first team for Hoenn was Swampert Breloom Hariyama Manectric Skarmory, and Banette

My First Hoenn Team was in Alpha Sapphire i figgered out so late it was a full Mega Evolution Team : Sceptile Camerupt Sharpedo Aggron Absol Salamance

My first Emerald team was Swampert, Swellow, Breloom, Gardevoir, Aggron, Flygon

I had blaze flygon,Aagron,goldduck,geodude,bbagon.

Time to play alpha sapphire again

I called my Blazekin “Kicken wing”

Exploud is way fun in any hoenn playthrough

my first ever emerald team is blaziken, pelipper, tropius, ninelates, swellow, and exploud

She's Erza! What more can you say?

NO FLYGON???

Make your Pokemon Crystal & Yellow & Emerald LEGACY Teams

You tried to sound like Billy Mays but you ended up sounding like Morty from Rick and Morty

My team was Blaziken, Flygon, kingdra, Aggron, lanturn, ninjask
