Interestingly enough, if you leave the game in the first screen, it will start autoplaying "a demo". That counts towards the achievements lol
Meowdoleon 12 Jul 2024 05:02
Hmm, I bought the Master Ball from the shop while I was in Great Ball form and didn't get the "Max Upgrade" achievement. Am I missing something?
forestcreature 16 Jul 2024 03:49
@medoli900 it's possible you need to get it from the SLOT minigame!
kyyyte 17 Sep 2024 01:19
One of my favorite games to play to kill time on the bus, one of the few GBA pinball games I can say I thoroughly enjoy.
Happyhaha2000 5 Nov 2024 16:57
I FINALLY MASTERED IT! Latios was giving me a lot of trouble, but I got it eventually! :) I noticed that a lot of guides online are wrong about certain pokemon locations, so if you can't find a pokemon in one area, try a few others until you get it.

@Mardrak I had no idea about Rayquaza upping the Lati@s chances, that would have been really good to know :')
gamingt0ilet 26 Nov 2024 18:02
i can’t catch rayquaza for the life of me. i swear i’m never touching this game again once i do
Oolung 22 Dec 2024 01:49
Here's a fun fact for y'all: if you catch groudon right as he starts his magma pillar attack, the game breaks! Wish I didn't found out about this on what seemed to be one of my best attempts yet but it is how it is :')
Flareon 22 Dec 2024 22:52
Wonderful little mastery icon to have.

I don't need it. I don't need it. I DEFINITELY don't need it. I don't need it. I DON'T need it. I don't need it. I don't need it. IIII NEEEEEED IIIIITTTTT!!!!!
Oolung 30 Dec 2024 11:41
Mastered! I am now the proud owner of a small pichu. It's nice that the game considers 201 pokemons caught as a complete pokedex, it would have been a bit underwhelming if you didn't get the little cutscene because you were missing the 4 e-reader exclusive mons.
Lokomelo 23 Jan 2025 15:57
Just a warning, the Clean legandary battle achievements do not work if you capture them, for some reason
Bl4h8L4hBl4h 3 Feb 2025 12:01
turns out the 4 E-reader mons are not E-reader exclusive

ILOVEVIDEOGAMES 4 Feb 2025 07:26
^ The video says you still need an e-Reader to catch them, either directly (using the Johto starters + Aerodactyl card) or indirectly (trade Pokedexes with someone who used the Johto starters + Aerodactyl card).

People saying that their game isn't recognizing achievements: just below the comments section of every game there is a button that reads "Supported Game Files". In there you will see that only the (USA) version is supported, just check your game to make sure it's a match!
ParagonPlus 23 Feb 2025 16:39
Does anyone know where to get Volbeat? Every guide I can find says it should be Plains on Ruby, while Illumise is Plains on Sapphire, but I've gotten 3 Illumise on Ruby so far so that's clearly incorrect.
Ricky33 25 Feb 2025 04:01
You can catch Volbeat in Sapphire Plains, only when all three "GET" arrows are lit up.
Driekiann's complete pokedex guide on speedrun.com has a spreadsheet of pokemon encounters that seems accurate.

@Ricky33 Thanks for the tip! Just have him and Latios left.
ParagonPlus 28 Feb 2025 20:48
Mastered! Really fun 'background set' to chip away at now and then, despite this game having some infamously inconsistent guides.
HouDeDeDe 13 Mar 2025 18:56
The latios and latias grind wasn't as bad as people made it out to be for me. I thought I got pretty lucky, but then again I spent much more time trying to earn t 4 billion score.
