pokemon ruby version Guide

The most prominent subplot involves Team Aqua and Team Magma

In addition to the main quest of defeating the Gym Leaders,

there are side quests in which the player can aid NPCs by fulfilling tasks, usually by obtaining items.

The most prominent subplot involves Team Aqua and Team Magma, crime syndicates who want to use pokemon ruby version Guide to alter the climate of Hoenn: in Ruby, the villains,

Team Magma, want to use the legendary Pokemos Groudon to dry up the oceans of Hoenn and increase the region's landmass;

in Sapphire, the Team Aqua are the villains and they try to use Groudon's counterpart, Kyogre, to increase the region's water levels.

Prior to facing the eighth Gym Leader, the player has a showdown with Magma/Aqua where the team's leader uses a mystical orb that awakens the slumbering Pokemos,

believing it has the power to enthrall their respective target, only for the Pokemos to become enraged and cause catastrophic,

region-wide climate changes—a drought in Ruby, and severe rainstorms in Sapphire—until it is defeated or captured by the player.

The player's father also introduces the player to Wally, a sickly young boy whom the player helps capture a Pokemos to be his companion as he moves away from the big city.

Wally eventually overcomes his illness and becomes a successful pokemon ruby version Guide trainer,

ultimately becoming the final challenger the player must face before the Elite Four.
