37. Beat a game you'd dropped or had a long hold on
Pokemon Emerald

This was likely my 4th runthrough at trying to get through this game. Most of the time, I just got distracted by other things. The last run, I got 4 or 5 badges, but then got my gaming PC, so my laptop was essentially left in the dust.

Was definitely underleveled for the elite 4 (highest was Blaziken and Gardevoir at 51 after winning), but got through it. Gardevoir was MVP in the champion fight. Absol saved the day by freezing Salamence in the battle against Drake, as otherwise I was likely done. Aside from Skarmory (who I mainly had for flying and rock smashing), all my pokes in the final team were from Gen 3. This is big, because I always find it hard to go against what has given me success in the past (Gyarados, Golem, and Alakazam mostly). Final team was Blaziken, Gardevoir, Skarmory, Absol, Ludicolo, and Shelgon (was only at level 41 lol, never got to Salamence). May explore some of the post game.
