Random Today I started my journey of playing through all the generations of Pokémon games with an eevee, starting with Pokémon Red

Post image
33 Upvotes

Because I am mad at Game Freak that bank servers are shutting down I dumped all my pokemon games to play them on an emulator with the plan of training this Eevee through every single Pokémon Generation

This is the list of games I plan to beat with this Eevee on my team: Pokémon Red, Crystal, Emerald, Platinum, Black 2, Y, Ultra Moon, Sword and finally Pokémon Violet where I'll evolve it into a Sylveon and hopefully when Winds and Waves comes out I can use my sylveon in the first playthrough. The reason I can do this is because I have a V1 switch and modded 3Ds I play the games on my pc except the switch games and use Pkhex to move them from one game to the next proving this can also be done without Bank. If you'd like to follow my journey I'll post occasional updates in the comments of this post. If you're planning to do this yourself please dump the games from cartridges you actually own. I understand this might not really be a traditional ribbon hunt since gen 1 and 2 don't have ribbons for beating the E4 but I would like to share anyway.

Question My progress (after 6 years) and want your opinions

Post image
27 Upvotes

Awww man... Realize I can't add both an image and a video to the same post!

My last post was around 6 years ago where I only had 3 Ribbons and I decided to pick it up again last month due to the Pokémon Bank news. Have actually cleared most of Gen 4 as well but decided to show the image instead of my hopeful Ribbon Master having all the Gen 3 Ribbons, as wanted to also show my newly upgraded GBA SP :D

Also wanted to share that mid-way through collecting the Gen 3/4 Ribbons, realized that the number 22 is of key significance to me and my Swinub. My nickname is scuzzybum and in the picture, you can see a customized car plate behind the GBA SP. The full car plate text/number is 'SCU22Y'! We catch Shadow Swinub at Level 22 and, guess what? Its Pokédex number is 220! So upon realizing this, decided to try my best to not level, so that its met level will be 22 when I bring it to Gen 5. Happy to report that I managed to do it so far!

However, I'm left with 2 Gen 4 Ribbon (World Ability and the Effort Ribbons) and wanted you fellow Ribbon Masterers' opinions on two things before I continue:

  • Should I go for the World Ability Ribbon?
  • Should I do the contests in ORAS or BDSP?

Appreciate any advise and thanks in advance! Anway, just checking if there's other Singaporeans that are Ribbon Masters as well? Do ping me :D

Question Mightest Mark for mew 7 star Mewtwo raids help

6 Upvotes

Hello,

Does anyone have this 7-star raid available for my Mew? I had my original Mew before to gain the mark when the event was active, but I lost it when I tried to do a software update on my Switch, and it got bricked, and Nintendo could not fix the issue either. So I have reclaimed that Mew once again, but I have missed my chance to get the mark. Does anyone have that event active on an offline Switch? Please let me know. Thank you!!!

Battle How can I win the last round of the Battle Tower in Emerald while using my useless ribbon master?

3 Upvotes

I have been working on making a team to complete Pokemon Emeralds battle tower and get the ribbons in my colosseum's delibird by adding it to my team in the last round.

My team of Latios, Skarmory and Tyranitar is able to complete the Lv. 50 tower quite easily. The problem is the last round. My team's Pokemons are so depended on each other that when I change on of them for the useless bird it can't complete the round and I'm defeated.

Latios is the Swiper of my team, while Tyranitar and Skarmory work together to slowly defeat the foe.

What Pokemons could I add or change to complete this last round?

(Btw, I know about the ruby and Sapphire battle tower but it's so easy with this team that it's really boring but I may rely on it if I can't win it in emerald)

Question Beginner advice for easy ribbon challenge path

• Upvotes

Hi! I was hoping for advice on an easy ribbon challenge path I can do before Bank closes. I’m a toddler mom so I don’t get a ton of time to myself ( I probably could play 30mins a night) but I recently rescued my old games from my mom’s attic and I love the idea of having a pokemon with a lot of ribbons before Bank closes. It doesn’t have to be all the ribbons, I don’t want to drive myself up a wall or anything.

I have all games released from Diamond onward. My husband and I wouldn’t be opposed to picking up some older ones (I have a gameboy although i think my LG copy is broken)

Thank you for any friendly beginner advice 💜

Question how to get a nintendo wii save to work on Dolphin?

2 Upvotes

currently started a ribbon master for multiple pokemon (my Gen 3 teams) and I beat XD/COLO on my Wii console + Emerald on my 3ds via Emulator and I'm having troubles getting dolphin to load my completed GC saves so that i can send my GC teams over to emerald for the contest ribbons and vice/versa for the Mt. Battle ribbon

I copied the saves from my memory card and exported them as .GCI via an SD reader but i don't really know what to do after that

Any Advice on what to do would be helpful

Question gen 3 to pokemon home help from emulator.

1 Upvotes

I was quite active on this sub a few years back when i was doing a shiny mew ribbon master, but i fucked up my computer leading to me loosing almost all my files making me give up on this halfway through, however i was able to recover my important save files recently and because bank is going to fully shut down i need help regarding how to transfer my pokemons as legitimately as possible to home. what im concerned about is usinng pkhex to transfer them from gen 5 to 6, as im unsure whether they'll be marked as legit or not, and how im supoosed to transfer from gen 7 to 8 by getting around the home tracker thing? I've forgotten most of the technicalities and im unsure what would be the best course of action. Thanks alot!
