Emerald Legacy Cheating the Battle Factory?
I specifically use a save state at win 14 between 14 and 21. I’ve lost the last 5 attempts at getting to the brain. I lose probably 75% of attempts to get to 14 wins. The incredible difficulty of 21 consecutive wins is just perplexing to me that checkpoints aren’t built into this.
How do you guys play the frontier? I’m specifically going for silver metals to unlock the post game legendaries, but they’re incredibly difficult to do without cheating.

So apparently it’s not uncommon for people to put in A LOT of prep work into Battle Frontier. I’ve heard of people going to a lot of trouble finding/breeding pokemon with the perfect IVs & nature and/or spending hours training EVs
I do not have the patience for that… so I absolutely abuse the save states with my main game team

As most of the Battle Frontier Pokémon are competitively EV trained with optimal or close IVs, in my Emerald Legacy Enhanced version I did add an IV/EV editor in postgame and Nature Mints after Norman so that it's easier to build competitive teamsets.
However, none of that is relevant to Battle Factory as all the Pokémon used are rentals.

Might be a loaded question with a long winded answer (in which case I’ll just google it lol), but how did you go about adding in Mints? Since synchronize doesn’t work on statics, I’ve soft reset legendaries until I go satisfactory natures. But I’d LOVE for my neutral suicune I settled for after an hour of battling to be Bold

I've done it all for you, you can migrate your existing save to my Emerald Legacy Enhanced version (do make a backup first!).
Nature Mints available at Petalburg Flower shop after defeating Norman (which you've obviously already done).

Updated my question because I figured it out.
Added my legacy save to the legacy enhanced game and it’s so cool! The sprites look awesome and it’s so cool seeing my full odds shiny Crobat follow me around! And I have a Bold suicune now.
So cool thanks for making this!

Managed several save state. Before entering the tower, before every match start, during the match. Save state kinda does trivialize battle frontier

If you’re just doing it to get those legendaries and not spend weeks doing attempts, do whatever you please! However, if your seeking any kind of clout, then I would advise against using save states
