History WMG / Pokemonrubyandsapphire

* [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Gallade]] was developed by the line to cater to would-be trainers put off by the possibility of [[DroppedABridgetOnHim Bridget-drop]], and/or those looking for a more action-hero type pokemon.

[[WMG: In the Hoenn games, the player is being manipulated by [[PokemonRedAndBlue Team Rocket]].]]

Wallace had a type advantage over Steven; 2/3 of Steven's team are rock and ground, and weak to all of Wallace's team. The only problems are Metagross and Skamory, and Metagross can be dealt with using Earthquake (which 2 of Wallace's team has), and Skarmory can just be hit repeatedly. Wallace beat Steven because of his chosen type; the only way for Steven to get his title back is to powerlevel his team or get some new pokemon.

[[WMG: There's a "Type theme" in [[PokemonRedAndBlue the Kanto gang]].]]

Junichi Masuda said that Hoenn was his favorite region, and he wants to do something special with it. All generation have usually been contemporaneous with each other, Gen I and II, Gen II and IV, but Gen V stands alone. Any Pokemon traded to it, especially if it was migrated to Gen IV from a Gen III game, says it "Traveled a long way through time", and it's accepted that these games are at least a few years after Gen IV, maybe a good 3 or 4, with Black 2 and White 2 [[TimeSkip pushing the bar]] to 5 or 6 years in total. Game Freak seems to be taking different turns now, instead of getting an UpdatedRerelease of Pokemon Black and White in the form of Grey, we were met with Black 2 and White 2, sequels to Black and White. It would make sense that the something "special" Junichi Masuda wanted to do is make a Hoenn centered game that, instead of being a remake, is a sequel to the original R/S/E, complete with a few new Gym Leaders, a different plot involving different Pokemon, and different experiences to greet new and old players alike. And of course, [[OneGameForThePriceofTwo two versions like always]].

** Alternately, we will get normal remakes of them, and then a Black 2 & White 2 styled remake after that. Apart from CashCowFranchise making it totally plausible, that would definitely take "something special" UpToEleven. To say nothing of the fact that [=FRLG=] and even [=HGSS=] stuck pretty closely to the games they were remakes of, so many fans are probably expecting regular remakes anyway.

* Mt. Pyre has a small room which is filled with 65% Dusclops, 15% Shuppet on TerraRuby (vice-versa in AquaSapphire) and 20% Chimecho; all at Lv. 20-30. It also appears in the middle of the pre-National game, used by a generic Trainer.

* Southern Island would be accessible without event, and therefore the non-roaming Lati@s would have its level be raised to 65. If you happen to knockout the roaming one, beating E4 does the work as always - though instead of usual Lv. 40 it's Lv. 55.
* Opposite mascot would be available post-game at Jagged Pass, similarly to Groudon in Emerald. At Lv. 75. Similarly to roaming Lati@s, if you knock it at Cave of Origin, you can rechallenge it after beating E4, albeit at Lv. 60. Rayquaza is found at Lv. 80; on-par with Arceus.

[[WMG: A big WMG, which is likely to be unreal]]

(The non-Hoenn Dex mons location are still in progress, the only thing left is Unova Pokémon, all other mons are done. And my imagination can go wild 'n crazy, so stuff may not make sense when I publish the link)

When shown with starters, the female player character is usually shown with a member of the Torchic line, and The male pc is usually shown with a member of the Mudkip line.

* [[FanFic/LatiasJourney This reminds me of another Deoxys.]] [[CompleteMonster I'm]] [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel scared...]]

That was his excuse, but not his real reason. The idea of making a volcano explode in the middle of the continent in order to expand the landmass makes so little sense that he'd have to be a borderline RalphWiggum to do it. Instead, he's a {{Pyromaniac}} who just wanted to see the volcano explode. That bit with the rocket fuel was to make an example of the Space Center, since rocket fuel is derived from petroleum, which has to be mined at great environmental cost (he is an eco-terrorist, after all).

* [[PokemonDiamondAndPearl Gallade]] was developed by the line to cater to would-be trainers put off by the possibility of [[DroppedABridgetOnHim Bridget-drop]], and/or those looking for a more action-hero type pokemon.

Why go to all this trouble? As its entries show, its line is very closely connected to its trainer's feelings. Also, note that the final move learned by all forms save Gallade is ''Dream Eater''. Perhaps its motivations are similar to those of [[MemeticMolester Drowsee and Hypno]], but they're more DangerouslyGenreSavvy and know how to avoid that sort of bad reputation...

As stated above, Red's dummy data in Emerald has him with a Charmander and Leaf with a Bulbasaur. That makes sense, since Blue would have a Squirtle. Look at the colorings of the Pokemon in comparison to their names.
