How to Get a Sudowoodo in "Pokemon Emerald"
Sudowoodo is a tricky Pokemon that disguises itself as a tree to avoid confrontation in "Pokemon Emerald." In order to catch a Sudowoodo for your Pokemon team, you need a special item called a Wailmer Pail and you must be in a special location called the Battle Frontier. The Battle Frontier does not open until you have beaten the game's main storyline. Unlike most Pokemon, there is only one Sudowoodo in the entire game, so you only have one opportunity to capture it.

Tips & Warnings
After you have visited the Battle Frontier once, you can return at any time by using Fly or by taking the boat.
Save your game before you use the Wailmer Pail on Sudowoodo and reload if you accidentally knock it out before capturing it. Sudowoodo is a Level 40 Pokemon, however at this point in the game many of your Pokemon are likely strong enough to knock out Sudowoodo in one or two hits. Use a lower-leveled Pokemon to ensure you do not knock out Sudowoodo before you can capture it.
