Collecting, trading and battling is what traditional Pokimon games are all about. This game offers players an opportunity to hone their skills and prove their abilities. Pokimon Emerald is an extension of Pokimon Ruby and Pokimon Sapphire, and shares the ultimate goal of stopping the expansion of either the Team Magma or Team Aqua realm. Players must keep balance in the world of Hoenn, where Team Magma or Team Aqua is trying to use Groudon(ground) or Kyogre (water) to try and take over. Rayquaza (sky) will help maintain this balance. Trainers will need to use their best battling strategies ever, because this game offers the most challenging Battle fields presented in a Pokimon game. Pokimon Emerald is the first Hoenn Pokimon adventure to allow players to trade and battle wirelessly.
While Pokimon Emerald is the companion to Pokimon Ruby and Pokimon Sapphire, the difficulty level and depth are a bit more challenging. Players will need to train hard to battle against the new seven Frontier Brain competitors in order to obtain all of the symbols in the Battle Frontier.
