Journey Back to Hoenn – Roar of Time: Generation III

It seems like only yesterday I started the Journey to X & Y article series, when in actuality it’s fast approaching six months since I did! Admittedly the inferno of hype for X & Y has flickered down into a smouldering cinder, but that’s expected, the games are out. Many of our readers enjoyed the articles we ran last year, and we’ve decided to continue the generation weeks we failed to complete before the release of the games. They’ll be a little different however—just a title change really, but still a heap of fun!

In Roar of Time we asked our readers what they would add to older games, if they gained the ability to travel back in time and make any change or additions they wanted. This time round it’s the same deal! If you could take control of Dialga and morph time back to the early development stages of Ruby and Sapphire (or any of the other Third Generation games!), what would you change? What would you take away? What would you add?

We don’t want you to be too outrageous here, keep things realistic. You could also pick something completely obvious, but what’s the fun in that? As we said in the first article don’t forget to consider how your change or addition would have an effect on the future of Pokémon games.

Get those brains working and tell us your ideas, we’ll be featuring our favourites in the next Roar of Time (who can guess what that will focus on?)

Please remember to Like us on Facebook and Follow us on Twitter! Or, if forums are your thing register on our forums, we always look forward to new members joining!

As a side note, please, please try to control your commenting on this article, when it comes to finding content for featuring it becomes very difficult if I have to filter through 1,000 comments saying you’re home from school, or asking if anyone is ‘here’. We have a chat, please use it!

  1. If i could change something about Ruby and Sapphire it would be the characters, they’re not very memorable and can get annoying sometimes

    Reply
  2. Hmm, well. This should be fun.
    I would have added Shellos and Gastrodon in Gen III, because they were designed and had sprites. They are two of my favorite Pokemon and deserve to exist within the greatest overall generation.
    I also would have added the day/night feature from Diamond and Pearl, considering that the hardware would not limit said feature. It would have added some interesting visual changes, and perhaps even provided some remixed songs.
    And that’s about it, really. 😀

  3. If I could go to the early development stages of R/S, what I would’ve added in was:

    -Fairy type, since types back then were either Physical or Special, we would’ve had 9 physical and 9 special types.

    -Kept Shellos inside of the game (in case anyone didn’t know, it was concealed in the games coding)

    -Less water routes. About 80% of the region was Water filled (which will be lovely with updated graphics, specially diving but was tiresome in the old ones)

    Reply
    • Well concidering Hoenn was more…island-ish, it makes sense that a lot of the routes would be water.

      Reply
  4. add a dark gym, remove contests, add ditto, keep day/night events, keep team rocket, more evolutions and pre evos, keep previous regions and badges in postgame, new types like fairy, in-battle evolution, a dolphin!, the ability to assign EVs to the stat you want like other rpgs..
    do not repeat concepts like krabby-corphish, seel-spheal , etc

    Reply
  5. Biggest thing I’d change would be graphical style. Overworld, sprites, text. Everything basically. I really, really hate it and it’s difficult to explain why. Everything sort of looks stretched and warped. Maybe music too. I don’t like the music.

    I’d probably fix some of the routes and stuff too. I don’t like all the water.

    My least favourite generation. Bleh.

    Reply
  6. Reading comments from below and I agree, with all the water Hoenn had, it was lacking a variety of wild water Pokemon. Every wild was either Tentacool or Wailmer. Diving was Clampearl.

    When they remake Hoenn I hope they don’t literally make it a remake with better graphics (with national pokemon available after dex)

    I want a revisit/update, with more wild water Pokemon added in, Shiny Stone available earlier on so we can get Roserade etc. I don’t want to wait til post elite 4 to do that stuff.

    Reply
  7. Alright before I go to the gym
    If they remake Rube and Saff I want a prominent return of a more interactive multi use of Secret Bases!
    Manage your friend codes
    Decorate it anytime
    enter it anywhere
    invite people over for minigames

    I remember refighting the Elite Four a bazillion times to earn Secret Base Dosh

    Reply
    • Yup. I would like it if it worked similar to Friend Safari’s. The Secret Bases will pop up on our region if the FC’s we have registered cleared the elite 4.

      I would also like Winona to be a Sky Battle gym trainer so it’ll require you to use a flying Pokemon (since her town is high up in the tree’s).

        • I believe zygarde is supposed to be a defensive rayquaza :/ I dunno why but it just suggests so, needs more stat moves like rock polish and iron defence

          Reply
          • But it’s pretty much a given that it’s going to mega evolve from 600 base stats to 700 base stats with increases in attack and speed. It even gets extremespeed and dragon dance. Mine will be offensive.

          • I doubt a mega evolution since they are abusing it a bit much rather than forme changes, reckon it will become a offensive forme. I’ll still go defensive with him though, since he is pretty bulky HP wise

          • It its base stats were like 660, yes I would’ve believed a form change. But its base stats are SUPER low for a trio legend, 600. Mega’s give a poke 100 stats, they did it like this intentionally. 700 base stats will tie it with Mega Tyranitar/Mega Garchomp

            From Aura Break ability (which reverses the effects of Fairy Aura/Dark Aura), to Its mega ability (which will reverse the type effectiveness of Yveltal/Xerneas) making Zygarde’s dragon moves super effective against Xerneas, and Ground moves supereffective against Yveltal. This is why Inverse battles can only be done out front of Zygarde’s home (in front of Terminus Cave).

          • Good ideas! I speculate that Zygarde will get two Megas because why were version exclusive Megas introduced. It has to be a foreshadowing of Zygarde’s two Megas. Also, doing this would make more money for Game Freak.

          • I wouldn’t mind if it got two mega’s. This would make it possible for Zygarde to be able to learn Geomancy and Oblivion Wing maybe from a special tutor. Just like how Arceus got Roar of Time & Spacial Rend, and Victini got Fusion Flare/Fusion Bolt

  8. An improvement I’d make on R/S/E is something we’re ALL thinking about. DECREASE THE AMOUNT OF WATER!!!! THERE’S TOO MUCH!!!! Oh, and I’d add Diving Gear (a new Key Item) for Diving.

    PJN comments in a nutshell.

  10. Some more things I would’ve done while RS was in beta stages

    -Tropius a pre evolution
    -Gardevoir a female only (and included Gallade in the game, male only)
    -Only 1 pseudo legend (having 2 pseudo’s in a gen was & still is confusing)
    -Jirachi capturable in Emerald
    -Day & Night cycle’s

    Reply
  11. I’m sure the huge Hoenn fans among us will be thrilled with this article. If Hoenn was to be remade, it would be incredible. Features like Dive, Secret Bases and the main cutscene in Sootopolis; coupled with Super Training, PSS and Pokemon Amie would be amazing with XY’s graphics. In a potential sequel on the other hand, I think teams Aqua and Magma would try and capture Rayquaza to find and control Kyogre/Groudon respectively. Also I wouldn’t be surprised to see the The Weather Trio to get Megas, and Blue, Red and Jade orbs to have their Mega Stones inside them, or undergo some kind of mutation. Either way, seeing Hoenn in 3D is something I look forward to. One great thing about B/W was the Gym Leaders’ last Pokemon theme. I’d like this to be implemented again in Hoenn remakes/sequels, only with this theme:

    Reply
  12. Since Hoenn introduced Double Battles, I’d make the Champion battle a Double Battle against Steven Stone and Wallace! That means I would’ve introduced Juan in R/S instead of Emerald XD
    Some other things I’d change:
    – Getting to battle Brendan/May when they have a fully evolved starter
    – Give Wally the Rival Battle music
    – Exchange Sceptile’s Attack stat with its Special Attack stat
    – Add night and day again, something that was in Gen 2 game but failed to be an aesthetic in Gen 3
    – Not add BRAILLE to a video game
    – Introduce an Eeveelution or two
    – Introduce the physical/special move split in THIS gen instead of Gen 4

    Otherwise, I’d keep everything else the same, especially the:
    – The music, the trumpets and timpani, the beautiful melodies that sound all across this region <3
    – The plot. I really liked having two teams and seeing them fight each other, that was really unique!
    – And finally, secret bases. This is without question one of my favorite features ever implemented in a Pokemon game. Being able to make a secret hangout anywhere in Hoenn, mix records with friends, and be able to battle them at their secret base with the team they had. Not only was it a great way for experience, but getting to decorate your own and go hunting for your friends, it's an idea I wish they would really bring back =/

    Reply
    • *claps* omfg hands down best comment XD

      I just realized Brendan/May never reached their final evolution. Wow. And switching Sceptile’s stats would’ve been nice, hopefully they can switch them for its Mega (if it gets one) lol.

      And for some reason, Leafeon/Glaceon feel like they were gen 3 to me lol.

      Reply
      • I always hated getting to Lilycove because I knew I’d never battle May again :'(

        Another idea I had was you know when Brendan/May run into the Champion’s room after you beat the Champ? What if they acted surprised it was over already, and then challenge you to a battle right then and there?

        Reply
    • I would have loved to see a way to access the water routes early, say before getting to watson and allow us to head out into the water a lot quicker. Even if it’s just a ferry ride, it allows a way to make the game not so landlocked for the first 3/4 of the game and the last 1/4 out at sea especially with diving.

      I’m again routing for times to pop up and with seasons a thing now it’ll be even cooler looking graphically in Hoenn.

      I would love to see some more of the native islands around be habited and that you could visit a new neighboring island that would give access to even more training and other missions to do there! Having a “elite 4” for the contests ala the anime, there could be a resort island for the finale of it instead of the larger hall in Lilycove.

      I am dying for the white rock mission where we could possibly have a mini mission to do with it! Heck more mini-missions in general would add longevity to a game that is already fantastic to play through over and over! I can’t wait to imagine the Fortree City where you get to be in the trees! Of course, adding depth and more to the cities would make them feel bigger then how they appeared in the originals.

      My vote for the gyms is to have stronger and more variety of the newer pokemon, and for wallace and juan to be the duo champions of the region. I’d love to see a new type for Sootopolis City especially if the two of them are champions rather than leaders. Having Steven as the leader would be a fun twist, but I’d prefer Steven to challenge you ala Red but found in a couple of rare places. I’d replace his Claydol with Lucario or give him more steel types instead.

      I’d give Wally a bigger role where you battle him more often. I love the idea of his character, plus Gardevoir was one of my favorite additions besides Swampert and co. I’d have Brendan/May a much larger role and have them battle you more than Wally. That or have a bigger contest role like the manga has for them so Wally could compete with you on badges while the others are going through contests.

      Bringing the Battle Frontier is a given, and hopefully the plot of Emerald would be used for both. that was the coolest seeing both hideouts, getting to find not just one, but all 3 legendary pokemon. I want to see a third rival come to shake up the Frontier with you, just to give the game more depth.

      Because of the way the plot was laid out there really wasn’t a focus in a lot of the cities. I would give more missions to explore the bigger versions with more to find, and make the game more immersive in terms of route options and allowing you to access new parts of the game. Secret meadows, hidden underwater coves, frosty mountains, the desert castle, the underground desert, the depths of the caves, and possibly more out in the water secrets to find.

      I love this generation and I felt these would make it the best game ever. <3

  13. Perhaps the only thing I would like to improve is the true Champion. People usually say Steven, but I don’t know. Maybe a battle between the two, one that you can watch, could have settled it.

    Reply
    • Steven was to present in emerald because he was dead, the manga explains the whole story but if I remember it goes like this

      Somewhere the Regis had awoken and started to go mental so Steven and Brandon(that pyramid guy if that’s not his name) was trying to tame them, eventually he died but when the Regis was calmed they brought him back to life and it explains why Brandon has the Regis

  14. So I have 3 shiny pokemon obtained via MM for those who place 1st 2nd and 3rd. 1sr gets to pick one out of the 3 pokemon they desire 2nd chooses out of the 2 leftover and 3rd gets the remaining shiny. Rare berries, Ability capsules and Leftovers will be given out as runner up prizes!

  15. Building on earier about encountering kyogre underwater it should be stationary roaming, so there are crevices in the ocean and if you swim over one there’s a chance kyogre is in one and will rise up and fight you

    In groudons case there are various pools of magma around in deep caves roughly about 3/4 (same goes for kyogre) where he rises from the magma

    I really liked Wally and how you help him to catch his first Pokemon, how he sees you as an someone to look up to, but was disappointed that he only appears twice.

      Reply
  32. YES YES YES! It’s finally here 😀

    I would remove the 16 item limit for secret bases, and make them bigger with more space. Possibly also not make the shopping time based because my Emerald cartridge’s internal clock died so now I can’t buy boards for the floor so half of my secret base is unreachable D:

    That’s pretty much all I would change since R/S/E were amazing installments and a breakthrough for the series just like X & Y.

  33. now i feel bad about getting off topic again :/ but I would love for walking with your pokemon to be reintroduced c: that was my fav part of HG/SS and i’m sure it would look AMAZING on the 3DS. Also I felt more connected with my pokemon walking with me instead of it being inside of it’s pokeball all the time except too battle.

  35. So since we’re talking bout Secret Bases where was your Preferred Base Location?
    Mine was a Bush right outside Fortree City to the west

    Reply
    • North of Rustboro, use Surf and surf North, climb that route with the bike slide, and go all the way south, there’s one of my secret bases.

      The other I would switch to would be west of Fortree City on that water route where Feebas is. Surf all the way down, and you’ll reach a tree. Mine was on the left side of the tree :3

    • Mine was often changed either
      The one in middle of the water on route 114 or the one near the fighter on route 111

    • And that sort of SCREAMS no Hoenn since it doesn’t look like any Pokemon in existence, let alone any Pokemon in Hoenn.

      Reply
      • Well Hoenn will still come. It’s just I believe this will be a perpetual generation, where they will add new Pokemon in the next games this year, send a update to XY to make them compatible with the new games, and then in 2015 they will release the Emerald remake, since its the 10th anniversary of emerald (2005-2015) and the 20th aniv of Pokemon (1995-2015) so they will have to do something big. 10th aniv of Gold & Silver they released HG & SS

        Reply
        • But they had a reason to remake HGSS because it was where many old Pokemon fans had to leave their generation 1 & 2 Pokemon after learning that there was no way to transfer their companions to Hoenn. And other than that, Gold, Silver and Crystal had a lot of epic things like how eventually battled your old character named Red, you could explore TWO regions and you had to battle against 16 gym leaders instead of 8 to finish the story. HGSS were really needed and revived the love for Gold, Silver and Crystal, but unlike GSC, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald lie on borderline questionable, even without the need for X & Y sequel/s or a generation 7.

    -Kalos ties with Hoenn for the the largest amount of towns and cities (16)
    -Kalos is the only region lacking a department store (Can’t wait to see Lilycove Department in XY Graphics)
    -Hoenn is the only region that hasn’t been rendered in 3D, and the only region to not have day/night.
    -Zygarde watches over the ecosystem. Groudon/Kyogre are known for destroying the ecosystem 0_0

  55. Aww baby reminded me of something thats always been on my mind.

    When hoenn reamkes come out, i hope they change the style of contests to be like the anime with a batle round and an appeal round

    Reply
    • THIS!!

      I hope the contest meter is similar to the one in Super Training. They could even have special contest modules in the super training, winning games to earn more coolness/toughness etc. Its obvious contests will be remade though, since they consolidated the old ribbons.

      I bet moth of the fairy moves will be “beautiful” and “cute” lol.

      Reply
  56. They can definitely update Amie/Super training to coincide with Hoenn contests.

    -Feeding our pokemon pokeblocks instead of puffs
    -Winning in new super training modules to increase our coolness/beauty etc.
    it can work 0_0

    by the way anyone up for a battle?

  65. This is what I think Mega Sableye should be like:

    Mega Sableye X
    Type: Dark
    Ability: Protean
    Stats: 50/125/45/115/25/120
    Competitive Status: Mixed Sweeper

    Mega Sableye Y
    Type: Ghost
    Ability: Shadow Tag
    Stats: 50/45/125/25/115/120
    Competitive Status: Fast Wall

    Reply
  66. Just realized that Mawile and Sableye both have the same base stat total, and both are counterparts of each other. Sableye also has the lowest base stat for a dark Pokemon. I think its highly possible it will receive a Mega in the future, and go from 380 to 480 like Mawile did. Only started doing research on Sableye after I seen UberMawile’s fanmade spreads for it lol.

    It’d be hard coming up for an ability to give it though. Either Infiltrator or Limber sounds the most tasteful. With an increase in its attack. Anyways, gonna go and enjoy my night. Enjoy your night guys.

    Reply
    • Glad you saw my Mega Sableye Theory. I’m a guy who’s obsessed with keeping balance and justice to the world. This is why it bothers me that Sableye didn’t get a Mega when Mawile did. It’s just not fair. Heck. I assumed Sableye would get it after I saw Mega Mawile!!!

      Yeah. I know Sableye’s fantastic because of it’s Hidden Ability, and so many people are already used to it’s main strategy. However, few people have always wanted to use it offensively. This is why I gave it two Megas.

      Mega Sableye X is the offensive one. Since I didn’t give it Huge/Pure Power, I decreased it’s defenses and added them (including the Mega 100 BST Bonus) to Atk, Sp. Atk, and Spd. Sableye has NO type advantage against Mawile, and it’s weak to Fairy. So with Protean, Sableye can use Fire Punch, become a Fire Type, and attack Mawile w/ STAB Super effective damage, like Mawile w/ Play Rough.

      Mega Sableye Y is the defensive one. I was thinking of giving it Prankster, but I changed my mind. It’s super fast, so high priority would be pointless. I could think of a good ability to give it, so I gave it Shadow Tag.

      Both Megas become Pure Types (Dark or Ghost) because I thought it’s be cool.

  68. Less water (actually made the games the most disliked for me because of the endless Tentacools and Wingulls).
    I know there has to be water cause of Team Aqua but at least make the routes quite narrow and the trainers close together. I like battling everyone and having to zig-zag(oon) up and down was annoying

    Reply
  69. Maybe instead of getting rid of most of the water, they should make wild Pokémon only appear in swirls or small areas of water where their appears to be a lot of motion going on based on the waters surface.. large amounts of water is what helped make Hurrn Original. They should keep it.

  70. I just noticed something. The past third main Trio Members (Rayquaza, Giratina, and Kyurem) have NEVER been Shiny Locked. Why Shiny Lock Zygarde now?

    Reply
  71. More Zygarde Speculation:

    Since Gen III, legendaries have been “breaking the norm” of being legendaries.

    Gen III: Legendaries w/ genders
    Gen IV: A Legendary that can breed
    Gen V: A legendary that can fuse with other legendaries

    We all know that Game Freak loves to do new and unexpected things. Since Zygarde should not get a new forme(s) because that’s overused, we’ve been speculating that it would get Mega Evolution(s) because of it’s 600 BST. However, what if that’s not the case.

    What if Game Freak gives Zygarde an EVOLUTION or BRANCH EVOLUTIONS?!?! Legendaries have never been able to evolve. That’s the last “legendary norm” they haven’t broken yet!

    Reply
    • ^ This!
      I’ve always wanted to so see Zekrom and Reshiram when they were both one with Kyurem and Zygarde looks like it has a lot of potential (Low bst,Snakes can shed their skin,3rd legend in the cover trio etc.) I’d definitely like to see Zygarde evolve into many different creatures like maybe the season you’re in depends on the transformation.

  86. I’m just looking at the ribbons on my Sceptile from Ruby version. It has both the Champion ribbon from Hoenn and the Champion ribbon from Sinnoh. The description for the Sinnoh ribbon specifies it’s for entering the Sinnoh HoF. But the description for the Hoenn ribbon just says “another region.” Why wouldn’t they specify Hoenn? Maybe because they plan on re-visiting Hoenn and having that new ribbon say it’s awarded for entering the Hoenn HoF?

    • Sorry about that, I left for lunch. I run Timid. I find sunny day unreliable. And I really hate the recoil per turn of solar power. If it was like life orb where it would only recoil if I attack, I would actually run sunny day. Nasty Plot is just better imo. His last slot is a coin toss. The beef up to his defense is great for a suprise Counter or surviving a hit after using will-o-wisp. Destiny Bond also makes players think twice. I’m not gonna lie, he’s not the best mega, but he’s a solid pokemon. What makes him really attractive is that as a houndoom, he can come in on will-o-wisp and knock off, two extremely common moves (often both on the same pokemon.)

  111. ok guys need your suggestions for my tournament before rules start how does a point system sound for my tournament

    hmmm how does a point system sound for a tounamet now hear me out for this……… A point system determines who is kicked out of the tournament. All competitors start with 10 points. Gaining and losing of points is determined by the amount of Pokemon the winner has left. Let’s say I 6-0 Riles. I would gain 6 points, and he would lose 6. If I 1-0 him, I would win 1, he’d lose 1. The 8 people who have the most points after the deadline move to round 2; the 4 people who have the most points in round 2 will go to round 3, and so on. Points are rest each round to make battling happen, If there is a tie, the people with the tie must battle it out to proceed.

  118. Last minute thought: If Ash ever gives up on his dream of becoming a Pokémon Master (which he should), and decides to become a Frontier Brain in Kanto, then what if he finds out that Paul managed to beat Brandon and is a new Frontier Brain (replacing Sydney) and he uses Torterra and Trevenant as his Grass type Pokémon in battles?

    Oh and Serena travels with Ash to Kanto.

    Bye for realsies.

  119. I will be here at 4, but not playing at 4. You can visit my chat because I will be there and that’s where the tourney is being held.
    Plus, rn on my chat, we are having Spin-Off Sunday! We’re playing the Mystery Dugeon series, comparing Battle Trozei scores, and visiting each other’s towns in AC:NL!

  122. Well, I shall be leaving in about an hour to visit family friends, making this the last free time of my Spring Break. It’s almost like the Smash Bros. Direct was announced for the perfect time to make the arrival at school much easier. I think I’ll watch some more crap on YouTube until I leave, so I hope you all have a great rest of your weekend 😀

  125. I would add in duel type moves. With the starters, Blaze Kick could be fire-fighting and muddy water could be water-ground.

  126. Viable:
    – Less water and more land overall
    – Physical/Special Split
    – Shellos and Gastrodon
    – Put in Snorlax and Sudowoodoo, and have them block a route somewhere
    – Increase Castform’s stats to 540 BST
    – Nerf Pseudo-legendaries to 580 BST
    – Change Berry farming to Gen 6 mechanics (really this used to be total BS)
    – Remove the mirage island mechanic (leave it to the daily lotto, kthx)
    – Remove the Feebas fishing mechanic and make it move available
    – Remove all Deoxys formes from the game except the base one
    – Increase difficulty of Rival, Gym, Elite 4, Champion encounters
    – Increase the amount of telephone numbers that can be stored

    Crazy:
    – Disable Brendan from the character select screen
    – Remove evasion moves from the game
    – Make all event and trio legendaries available (except those that will come out in Fire Red/Leaf Green)
    – Implement a “no legendaries” link battle mode (I’d say no “ubers”, but this is classic Game Freak)
    – Implement customizable clauses in link battles (choices of sleep, item, species, evasion, ohko)

  127. If I could, I would take away a bit of water from Hoenn, add islands in water routes where you can catch non-Water type Pokémon
