POKEMON EMERALD BATTLE FRONTIER

The Battle Dome is in the north-western corner of the Battle Frontier and is headed by the Frontier Brain, Dome Ace Tucker. The Battle Dome is where the strategies of trainers are put to the test.

At the Battle Dome, you will fight in a bracket tournament with 15 other trainers. If you manage to survive three battles, you'll make it into the final. Beat the other finalist and you'll become the winner for that tournament. The battling is regular single or double battling - no modified rules or restrictions (Apart from the usual level and legendary clauses).

  

You will get to take three Pokemon with you into the stadium, but you can only use two during battle. You'll also get the chance to see which three Pokemon your opponent has, as well a quick summary of their tactics, before you enter the stadium, so you can plan wisely.

DOME ACE TUCKER

When you have won 19 consecutive single battles (that is, 4 tournaments and are in the final for the 5th tournament) in the Battle Dome, the Frontier Brain - the Dome Ace Tucker - for this stadium will challenge you in the final. If you beat him, you'll be awarded a Silver Tactics Symbol.

Strategy Guide

Not a very strategic place except for the team choosing. Mainly, a normal battling strategy will work if you choose the two most effective Pokemon for the job. I found that full out attacking works very well here. I would suggest well-balanced sweeping movesets. However, Smeargles aren't very likely to do as well here as the Battle Arena.

For a collection of suggested teams, see the original guide on our forums
