Morty suffers from the fact that there was only Misdreavus & Gastly Family back in the days of Gen 2 for Ghost Types so he shouldn't count. Half of Wattson's Team in Emerald is native to Hoenn as he uses Electrike & his ace is Manectric. As for Fawkner, I guess they thought the familiarity of Pidgey & Pidgeotto would be good for players just starting out. Still they could have had him start with Natu then use that level 15 Pidgeotto. As for Bugsy it was probably considered too soon in the game to have the player encounter Scizor, although it would have been interesting if his team was Spinarak, Beedrill, & Ledian instead. Chuck had no excuse not to use either Hitmontop or Heracross on his team.

Can't say I agree with most of these choices for three reasons. 1. Simply having a balanced team (not even an intrinsically researched one, just a good variety) gives you coverage against most of the powerful moves and annoying stats. 2. If you have tanky Pokémon on your team that really changes how you battle against some of these leaders. Most of what you said only applies if you have a team of sweepers. 3. If you take the AI into account, some of the leaders with impressive moves become a lot more tame.

1:15 - You're completely wrong in saying you can get every other badge before you fight Brawly. You can initially skip Brawly and fight Watson and Flannery first, but you have to fight him before you can fight Norman. Norman will only let you challenge his gym when you've got 4 badges, i.e. when you've beaten Roxanne, Brawly, Wattson and Flannery. You can't bypass Norman because you need the Balance Badge to be allowed to use Surf outside of battle, and you need to Surf to cross Route 118 so you can actually get to Fortree City and fight Winona.

Can we agree that Hoenn has the most attractive female gym leaders of any region we've gotten so far? Not only that there's also Emerald's Frontier Brain Girls Anabel, Greta, & Pike Queen Lucy. Also May's RS & Emerald appearances were attractive as well. I think my biggest regrets for ORAS are as follows 2)Battle Frontier was completely absent, 1)Giving May a childish looking redesign without any Trainer Customization options. Supposedly the reason Battle Frontier wasn't included was because it was believed not enough players would enjoy it because of it being too difficult. If that were the case they could have just made the challenges easier. At least Anabel appeared in an awesome new redesign for the Gen 7 games.

A pokemon you missed Mystic is Zangoose (if you have pokemon Ruby). It learns Swords Dance and Slash by level up, which makes for a terrifying combo in a play through. It's also decently fast and can take enough hits to get a boost or two. Later on you can also give it a combination of Aerial Ace, Shadow Ball and Brick Break to make it even more devastating (recommend the last two tbh). It does really well against basically all Gym leaders. With a double Swords Dance boost I've found that you can even power through Winona's Skarmory. With Shadow Ball you annihilate Tate and Liza and Swords Dance + Return or Slash devastates Wallace as well. Only thing you've really gotta watch out for are faster pokemon who can kill it before it sets up or prey on less-than-high health.

One simple way to counter Norman’s Slakings is to bring one of your Pokémon knowing the move Protect and using it whenever Slaking is about to use a move. Unfortunately, the TM for it, 17, is not available until you reach the Lilycove Department Store; so you will have to rely on Pokémon that learn the move naturally. Dustox learns it at level 17, Pelipper at 25, Volbeat at 29, Torkoal at 27, and Anorith at 31

After I fought flannery and nearly lost to her, I got stuck in the game for a while because I wasn't sure what to do, so when I finally realized I needed to battle norman most of my team was about level 40, so I was a god for the next two gym battles.

For Watson and you started with Treeko, make sure to get a Makuhita and evolve it into Hariyama. Evolves at level 24 and is one thick boy.

This is my opinion but based on Emerald, from easiest to hardest. Roxanne Ex: You can simply catch Shroomish, Lotad or have Treecko/Mudkip as your starter. You can aslo overlevel Torchic to evolve and use double kick Wattson Ex: Marshtomp destroys it with Mud Shot. Or have Geodude with Magnitude learned at level 17. Combusken has double kick, we mentioned Marhstomp, Grovyle does struggle though. But as I meantioned, you can also beat it with Geodude. Norman Ex: Now I know what you are thinking, how can he be easier than everybody else. Three words, Sableye and Poison/Burn/Leech Seed. You can use this statuses to chip him down and switch ro Sableye, the earliest ghost type to be dealt 0 damage and chip both down. Yes, one unit may die from facade, but when you switch out, you can revive them since you have passed by Flannery where you can buy revival herbs. Juan(The replacement of Wallace in Emerald): By now you should have a solid team and there are many counters: Manetirc being the best, Magneton, Ludicolo quad resisting water, and anybody like Crobat who has Giga Drain. But he has high levelex pokemon which is why I think he is harder than norman anyways. Also Norman gets countered by Protect in the first turn. Brawly Ex: Surpriing but while Tailow can be a counter, you can get surprised by the higher levels of his pokemon if you decide to fight him at the moment. I actuallyhad two pokemon die to him which says a lot for the point in time in the game. He even used a non very effective attack to kill my Ralts. Flannery: She actually has a Camerupt and Numel instead for having the extra slugma. Torkoal alone is a challenge due to how attract and a sunny day Overheat can easily kill. It's also very bulky so it can survive many hits and just restore the Hp easily. Also, you can compare it with Miltank except as the child of Miltank that Whitney has with attract. Winona Ex: The first time I whited out in The game. Once Altaria has set up plenty of Dragon Dances, she can sweep your team if you haven't teached anybody Ice beam but she is much higher leveled at the time. Also you can't just use double team or something since she has aerial ace. I barely beated her by chipping her down with toxic on Crobat and healing. But just like Mystic has said, unless you are ready, the fight is very hard. Tate and Liza Ex: If you have played Emrald you know you just can't spam surf on Swampert or something when they have a well set up team with sunny day and solarbeam, flamethrower and the bug type as we know sucks and is weak to rock at the times. Dark types have low speacial defense and unless you had an overlevel ed Bannete or Dusclops, the battle is very hard. Also, everybodyy is iimmune to Earthquake and they have four pokemon. This for anybody if tthey want to know about Emerald. Thank you for reading.

Yeah, I remember the difficulty spike I'm some of my early casual playthroughs. Thanks to multiple copies of RSEORAS games, I was able to build a better team with Pokemon I don't use as often but still to greater effect and it wasn't AS bad, given the boosted EXP the Traded Pokemon get. Thanks for such an excellent video!!

In emerald, Tate & Liza gave me more trouble than they were worth, Winona's entire team faints to an ice beam from a swampert, and you can just use truant to your advantage with dig or protect. Watson should be down lower because mud shot, Brawley is harder in emerald (and not everyone skips him), Flannery is no issue if you have like ANY water type and water gun/bubble beam/water pulse, and Juan is a joke.

personally, I always considered Winona to be the strongest. She would be the only one I would need to intentionally grind levels for before her gym battle because her Altaria is so hard to beat at this point in the game since there is a lack of ice and dragon types. There aren't any ice type options you can get by the time you get her, and the only two dragon type options, Altaria and Vibrava, she most likely outspeeds and can one shot.
@amymoreau2125

Here’s basically how you win every fight: Roxanne: Treecko and Mudkip destroy her, and while Torchic would be very difficult to beat her with, you could easily grind a level or two to evolve into Combusken with Double Kick, which makes her a cakewalk again. Brawly: He’s very difficult if you don’t have the right counters, but thankfully Wingull, Beautifly, and Zubat destroy him, and if you are having trouble, you can skip him and fight him as late as your fourth gym battle. Watson: All of the starters have some sort of advantage against him by this point, Grovyle resists Electric, Marshtomp is both immune to Electric and gets Mud Shot, and Combusken has STAB-Fighting moves for the Magnemite and Magneton. If you are having any trouble, none of his Pokemon can hurt Shedinja, so you can use that, too. And just like Brawly, you can skip him and fight him after Flannery. Flannery: Very easy if you have Marshtomp, but if you don’t, Lombre, Wingull, Solrock, Lunatone, Graveler, and many more, plus the Dig TM will easily counter her team which all share the exact same type. Norman: Without exploits or a good fighting-type move, he’s easily the hardest gym leader in the game, however moves like Protect and Dig will literally make his Slakings useless, and if you don’t like exploits, or don’t have Combusken, Hoenn provides good fighting types at this point like Hariyama and Machoke. Winona: Can be difficult if you underestimate how scary her team can actually be. She also has a good type matchup against all of the starters, with Sceptile and Blaziken getting destroyed (Blaziken can be used for Skarmory, but that’s it) and Swampert doesn’t enjoy fighting Pelipper and Altaria. Thankfully, Manectric, Graveler, and Lunatone/Solrock destroy her as long as you watch out for Altaria with your Electric type and Skarmory and Pelipper with your rock type, and if you have trouble, you can skip her and can wait until you have all of the other badges to fight her. Tate and Liza: You literally have to have a party member with Surf to get to their gym in the first place, and it crushes their Lunatone and Solrock. Swampert is the perfect counter for them, and Sceptile does well against them, too. Blaziken gets crushed, but like I said, you have to have a party member with Surf, and as long as your surfer as at least base-80 Special Attack, you should be golden. And same as with Winona, you don’t have to fight them if you don’t want to until after Wallace. Wallace: Sceptile is great for this fight, especially Whiscash, and Swampert does okay but not great, and don’t even think about using Blaziken except for Sealeo. However, it’s an endgame Water-gym, and you have access to every Grass and Electric type in the region by this point. Ludicolo, Shiftry, Cacturne, Manectric, Raichu, Magneton, Electrode, you name it, you have an abundant amount of counters for him that you should get by easily with at least one of the above. Note, I’m not an expert, if I made a mistake, please tell me

I’m surprised you didn’t mention how Bradley gets completely walled by Sableye, something you catch on the same island as his gym. His Machop can’t touch it and in Ruby/Sapphire the Makuhita can only use knock off which in gba works off it’s abysmal spA. Not to mention that it only has 20 bp and hits for neutral. In emerald none of his Pokémon can damage you at all. It’s essentially a free fight

About Norman, you can get any pokemon with Protect/Detect to cheese out the Slakings. PP is an issue that comes to mind, but if your pokemon hits decently hard, you won't have to worry about it (at least for Protect).

It’d be cool if Pokémon let you skip gyms, but match the gym leaders Pokémon to yours. Like if you skip the fighting gym and come back at the end, then he’ll have level 50 Pokémon instead of his usual leveled Pokémon.
