Okay, earlier I was playing my emerald in the area before the Safari zone and as I looked away Latias started a battle with me, I freaked out and knowing that I didn't have a master ball with me I quickly shut off my game to go and said master ball. But I haven't found it again (plus my SP is out of batteries) So, has this ever happened to any of you guys? Finding a pokemon in the same place even after shutting off the game?

Well, theoretically, yes, it is possibly, but I have never done it before... Well, I've found Lati@s in the same area, but not the same square. So, yes, possible, but not likely
