Pokémon Emerald - Catching Kyogre in a Poké Ball

***IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!***
I'm getting a bit peeved off at people constantly asking "How do you get Shedinja?". Seriously. This is the Internet, in case you hadn't noticed. If you don't know, DO A SEARCH FOR IT!!! That includes on YouTube, as there are vids covering that as well. (Also, I've explained how you get one near the bottom of the vid description.)

From now on, all posts asking how to find Shedinja will be deleted without warning.

***END OF NOTICE***

No doubt those of you who already saw my vid showing me catching Groudon in a Poké Ball just knew this was coming. And you were right. So here, for your viewing pleasure, is a vid of Kyogre getting virtually the same treatment. (And why not?)

A few big differences in this one. The most obvious one being my (not so) secret (anymore) weapon, a Pokémon which I raised specially for this task. Also, you may notice the Poké Ball symbol next to Kyogre's level. The only reason that's there is because I had already transferred my lv.100 Kyogre over from my 2nd copy of Sapphire, for cloning reasons. (And now that clone is on my Pearl game. The original, however, is back where it belongs on my 2nd Sapphire cart.)

For those of you wondering about the nickname I give my Kyogre in this vid, it's just another tribute to one of my all time PS2 faves: Final Fantasy X. (The same reason I named my Groudon "Behemoth".)

Oh, and before I forget, BigBadMama and Git make a return appearance in this one.

Enjoy the vid! And remember: swimming is very good for you! ; )

NOTE: I DID have some video footage of me doing the same with Rayquaza, but unfortunately, that somehow managed to get itself deleted somewhere along the way. =(

And for those of you who don't already know, here are a few FAQs:

Q1) "What Pokémon is Stalker?"
A1) Stalker is a Shedinja.

Q2) "How do you get a Shedinja?"
A2) Evolve a Nincada when you have 5 or fewer Pokémon in your party. When your Nincada evolves into Ninjask, a Shedinja will then occupy an empty slot in your party. (So essentially, you're getting 2 Pokémon out of 1 evolution process.)

Q3) "Why does Shedinja only have 1 HP?"
A3) This is just a stab-in-the-dark, but I'm guessing it has something to do with its "Wonder Guard" ability, which blocks direct damage from attacks that aren't super effective against it.

Q4) "How do you get Shedinja to learn False Swipe?"
A4) Easy. Just delay Nincada's evolution until it reaches lv.25. At that level, Nincada learns False Swipe. (And if it evolves at that level, it will learn Swords Dance when it becomes a Ninjask, which will also be passed on to the resulting Shedinja.)

Q5) Did you use an emulator for this?
A5) Simply put: No, I didn't. I actually used a GameBoy Player (a peripheral that allows GB/GBC/GBA games to be played on a GameCube) when making this vid.

Also, contrary to popular belief, making a Shedinja appear in your party DOES NOT use up any Poké Balls in your bag. It actually appears in a copy of the ball used to catch the Nincada you had. (Meaning if you used a Net Ball to snag your Nincada and then went on to evolve it into a Ninjask, the resulting Shedinja would appear in a Net Ball. The same is true for all other types of Poké Ball.)

I remember watching this video 3 years ago. It is not as funny as it was back then

@Pen4928

That tends to happen with repetitive viewing. =(

When I go to the wheater institute in route 119, the scientist doesn't tell me the location of kyogre nor groudon, he only says ''I've been researching rain for many years, but it's ridiculous to think that humans can freely change the weather''. How the heck can i make him tell me the location of groudon and rayquasa?

[ShiitakeWarrior]

@darthjohankun

First off, you MUST beat the game before you are able to search for Groudon and Kyogre. Only then will the guy at the Weather Institute clue you in on their whereabouts.

Secondly, you can encounter Rayquaza at the top of the Sky Pillar as you could in Ruby and Sapphire. (Of course, it'll be lv.70 as always.)

You Can't catch Kyogre with a poke ball you need a Master Ball

[ShiitakeWarrior]

@Quiggs44

None too savvy with the game mechanics, are ya? >:(

As a matter of fact, ANY wild Pokémon (including "runners") can be caught in a Poké Ball. Next time, try watching the whole vid. (Or at least the part at around 10:10.)

[InUyAsHaGlitchCity]

I cant wait for the Hoenn remakes :D

[ShiitakeWarrior]

@abc43551

Guaranteed catch? Bah. Where's the fun in that?

The way I see it, a difficult catch is better appreciated than an easy one. (And I used waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more Poké Balls when I was catching Cresselia.)

whenever i hear that song "i make it rain" i think of two things. 1) back playing pokemon saphirre and emerald whenver it said: "kyogre's drizzle made it rain" and the legend of zelda ocarina of time the song of storms! :D

[MasterSwordOblivion]
