Wild Wailord!

A wild Wailord has appeared!?

I was pretty amazed by this guys. I'm replaying Pokémon Ruby and was surfing around Route 128 and 129 when a Wailord appeared. I was shocked because in the time I have played this game, I have never come across a Wailord like that. I decided to check a trusted site, but it only led me to ask more questions. I found out that there is a 1 percent chance of finding one while surfing. I thought I was pretty lucky until I saw the level cap. (Minimum level: 25 -- Maximum level: 30) I caught mine at level 39.

Good find!

in gen 3 i only played emerald

I'm pretty sure I played all of the 3rd Gen games.

My friend always tells me third gen is the best. i just couldnt make myself play more than emerald. the starters are really cool and i like the legendaries in that gen but i just never got as into that gen as i did 1 2 4 and 5. my guess is because the timing of when gen 3 released. i didnt have a gba until my ds lite and by then i was playing gen 4 and only played gen 3 for pal park purposes.

I haven't played the older ones a lot, but I did have a Special Yellow Edition. That one was awesome letting you have Pikachu as a starter. I've played almost all of the games and I'm not sure if I should get a 3DS for X and Y. I also haven't played Black and White 2.

Im unsure about the 3ds for X and Y as well. I only played White 2 for like a week. i poured over 400 hours into my Black and White games tho. ATM my plan is to fall behind in pokemon by maybe 2 gens or more than binge the heck out and catchup when im bored sometime in the future. its what i did after gen 2 and it was almost like rediscovering the franchise.

Ha. Gen 3 felt like a chore for me. But thats just my opinion.

@Ωmega I agree i didnt really get as into it as i did all the others. I liked finding the regi pokemon and rayquazza is a superior BA. plus i do liek mudkipz haha actually the gen three starters were all really cool. for whatever reason the game just felt less addictive.

I've heard that from a lot of people as well. The 3rd Gen wasn't the most popular. Nevertheless, everyone loves Mudkip! I read on another thread that suggested the idea for a 3rd Gen remake like HG and SS.

I think its because its very slow paced. In B/W 2 the last gym had me at level 60-70 with my pokemon. Gen 3 the last gym leader is at the 40s in levels. It just makes pokemon grinding painful. Not to mention I apparently passed HM01 in the second [I think?] town while I was at the third gym and had to go aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaall the way back just to proceed. What. A. Pain.
