What is Pokemon Emerald?

Pokemon Emerald

Pokemon Emerald was released in Japan in 2004 on the Game Boy Advance, a game emulator. However, the rest of the world only found out about it a year later, in 2005, when it received a new update. This was due to the fact that the new updated version of Pokemon was more successful than the previous version. It is also the final installment of the third generation of the Pokemon Video Game Series. The video game begins with the player selecting one of two characters, a boy and a girl who are both Pokemon trainers, and takes place in a small town called Little Root, where the player has recently moved to a new home with his family. Then, the players explore the different towns and eventually get to Pokemon Emerald Lavaridge town. The adventures in this game can be compared to what you see in movies like maze runner.

The game begins slowly, with a lot of grinding and learning new mechanics. However, things quickly escalate as teams magma and aqua make the skies roar as the player quickly shifts from completing the Pokédex to preventing total dominance!
After the first 2-3 gyms, the protagonist must venture out into this new region and explore new caves, cities, forest villages, research labs, towns and so much more. Near the finale, the player receives new challenges. Moreover, Pokémon is ready to embark on the road to victory, only to be greeted with a pleasant surprise in addition to the original games.

The sense of accomplishment in this game is incredible, and it is undoubtedly the number one selling point. Even the after-game is incredible. It has new legends, areas to explore, hidden secrets, and an international Pokédex, as well as new starters and Islands.

How to Complete Lavaridge Gym?

Lavaridge Gym

Find your way to the gym once you get to Lavaridge Town and get ready for a little puzzle. Lavaridge Town Gym is unlike any other gym since it combines battles and a maze style, making it unique. The player enters the gym and is blinded by mist, limiting his or her visibility. You then proceed around the gym pressing numbers in order from 1 to 8. Lavaridge Town Gym is more difficult than other gyms since it has two levels: a first floor and a basement. Because the Pokemon you’ll be battling in lava ridge are fire-type pokemon, having water-type pokemon, ground-type pokemon, and rock-type pokemon is a wonderful tip for conquering lava ridge.

To solve the maze, lower the first trap door. Then, go up the water spout on the far right and open the trap door which is on the far north. Next, on your far left, you will see another trap door, drop it open. Now, head up the water spout that you will find on the far left. Get down the trap door on your far left. Afterward, keep on going right and you will find another trap door, drop it down and take the southern trap door down. Finally, get ready to fight the Lavaridge Gym Leader after climbing up the water spout on your far left.
