u heard wrong; instead of saying "you can launch a rocket into space in mossdeep" they were saying "i'm lying in order to gain attention"
good and easy team to raise in emerald that you can use to beat the Elite 4 easily on their own... well i give u pokes, howbout that?
starmie =D stil the best even in gems
breloom - just find a shroomish and train it up from der
dusclops - all ova da place, an all-purpose switch-in
i dunno... frankli i just used blaziken for the whole elite 4 ... and a ludicolo...
as long as yer 5 levels + yer opponents it's actuali hard for the ingame NPCs to beat you -_-" just spam potions and revives if you want, it's onli the elite 4; real challenge comes afterwards =D
