| The Battle Frontier is a fictional place located in the Hoenn region in the video game Pokémon Emerald that specializes in variations of Pokémon battling. To enter, you need to sign up at one of the desks to obtain the Frontier Pass, which enables you to roam freely around the Battle Frontier. After winning at each of the Battle Frontier locations a certain amount of times, you can fight that location's Leader (collectively known as "The Frontier Brains") for a chance to win silver and gold Battle Frontier badges. When you defeat all of the leaders, you get special Berries and an extra star added to your Trainer's Card. Battle PikeThe Battle Pike is a giant building shaped like a Seviper. You need to sign up for "The Battle Choice Challenge" and choose three Pokémon. You then enter a room with three curtains, and must choose one. What may happen in the rooms is:
In every other room (in each room with three curtains,) an assistant will give you an enigmatic hint to what is behind one of the curtains. After 28 and 140 room completions, you can fight the Pike Queen Lucy. If you defeat her, she awards the Silver Luck Symbol if this is your first 28-room completion, and the Gold Luck Symbol if this is your 140-room completion. Lucy's pokemon are the same level as your highest level pokemon. Lucy's name resembles the word, "luck." Similarly, the Battle Pike is the structure that tests one's luck. Battle DomeIn the Battle Dome, you get put in a tournament with 15 other people. You have to progress through the first leg, quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals of the tournament to become the Champion of that challenge. You can choose between single or double battles, and then pick a team of three Pokémon to battle with. Before each battle, you select two of your Pokémon to fight. In addition, you can see your opponent's pokemon choices and 1 move from the three of them. You can even see their record throughout the tournament. Once you are done, you get taken to an actual arena (complete with a cheering crowd) where you start your fights. After each fight, your Pokémon are fully healed, and the process begins again until you finally win. After 5 and 10 tournament wins (single battle only), you can fight the Dome Ace Tucker. He surrenders the Silver or Gold Tactics symbol, depending whether this is your first or second time to come across him respectively. He wields a ferocious team of Pokemon that counterbalance each other's weaknesses, to take advantage of his own 2-pokemon only rule. Thus, wielding pokemon that effectively use 4 different types of moves are excellent for continuously pinpointing a hole in his party.Battle FactoryIn the Battle Factory, your kind hosts and attendees are people dressed up in lab cloaks and goggles. There is a choice of double or single battling, and the exciting thing is that if you choose level 50 your pokemon are level 50... but if you choose Open Level your pokemon are level 100! They also are all final evolution pokemon, as opposed to the Lv. 50 challenge (where your pokemon are all middle-class.) That's right, you don't use your own pokemon for this challenge. The attendee takes you to a room where you choose 3 out of 6 rental pokemon on offer.They will each have a random item and you can look at their summary while choosing. It's best to choose those whose items, stats, nature and moves all correlate effectively. When you are ready to test out your rental pokemon, you can go into the battle room and battle. If you win, you can swap one of your current rental pokemon for your opponent's rental pokemon, but you can not look at the summary. Thus, you must select pokemon due to their effectiveness. Once you have won 7 battles against trainers sporting random pokemon, you will be escourted to the entrance room. You start off at 3 battle points and multiply from there.[ Visit the complete Wikipedia entry for Battle Frontier ] | Searches on eBay |
