You're thinking Feebas. One area in the game, only on 6 tiles in the lake it shows up at, and it's determined by the trendy phrase. There's no ingame way of seeing which specific tiles there are so you had to keep checking every one until you found it.

It was similarly awful to catch in the Sinnoh games, except it was only 4 tiles and they changed randomly every day rather than being tied to something that you could manipulate with an external calculator like the trendy phrase. I've still to this day never caught a Feebas legitimately in a Hoenn or Sinnoh game because of that weird bullshit with it only being found on certain tiles. Every Feebas or Milotic I have, I either caught through a different method in a different game, traded for, or bred from one I already had.

I want to play this but I'm not really comfortable or confident with emulators. Don't you need the base game as a ROM and need to patch it or something? I prefer the stand alone downloads like pokemon infinite fusion.

Yes, this ROM hack is downloaded as an IPS patch. You need to have a patcher to apply the IPS patch (I use Lunar IPS) and an unmodified Pokemon Emerald ROM (which they will not provide and we will not help you find). I'm pretty sure Pokemon Infinite Fusion could get away with being a standalone download because it was made from scratch rather than being a patch of an existing Pokemon game.
