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!

        • Or remove random water encounters and add it where there are schools of pokemon you swim into giving a insta battle. After encountered they move somewhere else

  3. so I might be interested in joining the tourney 😮 if it’s not to much to ask what are the rules please? ( clauses and ban pokes) and are pokegen pokemon allowed?

  4. They should just make it so that there is a distinction for Pokémon containing water and normal water, just like the short “gras”/tall grass mechanic. Would make traversing the water routes still fun, while they can still keep spots of water to encounter Pokémon.

      • Awesome

  6. Time to EV train two more pokemon, then its level up time. After that I’ll use tms. If I get done with those, then it’s battle time!

    • I know just that final Flare Blitz!
      My eye weep at such awe-inspiring power!

      I kinda get that kinda Vibe with my Garchomp Mega Evolves and Sand Force Activates also with Krookodile’s Moxie

  7. 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.
