It is north of [[Mossdeep City]], on {{Rt|125}}, and is the only place in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} where wild {{p|Spheal}} and {{p|Snorunt}} can be encountered. Shoal Cave has several levels of terrain, only reachable during certain times of the day, due to tides. During high tide, the {{player}} may access different areas by using the field move, [[Surf (move)|surf]], that could not be accessed on foot during low tide. The high tide feature greatly limits the amount of area that the {{player}} can access, but at the same time, allows the {{player}} to explore areas that can not be ventured on when the cave isn't flooded. | ||

At certain times of the day, the tides rise, flooding most of the cave. This water can be {{m|surfed}} on, to access levels of terrain in which the player can not reach on foot while the tide is low. And vice versa; during low tide, the player can access areas, which couldn't be accessed in high tide, such as the ice floor, the lowest floor in the cave. During low tide, the {{player}} may be able to access the ice room containing the [[Type-enhancing item|Nevermeltice]]. To access the ice floor, {{HM|04|Strength}} is needed to move boulders. Prior to using {{HM|04|Strength}}, the {{player}} encounters a [[Black Belt (trainer class|Black Belt]], whom does not battle, but gives the {{player}} a [[In-battle effect item|Focus Band]]. | ||

If all four Shoal Salts and four Shoal Shells are in the [[bag]], the {{player}} can give the ingredients to the old man in the first room, and he makes a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Shell Bell}}. The player can only obtain the [[Shoal Salt]] during low tide, and can only obtain the Shoal Shell at high tide, and may obtain as many [[In-battle effect item|Shell Bells]] as he or she wants. Immediately after crafting a [[In-battle effect item|Shell Bell]] for the {{player}}, the old man prompts the {{player}} to find the ingredients for another. However, the {{player}} must wait for the tide to change in order to gather the [[Shoal Salt|salts]] and [[Shoal Shell|shells]] again. Shoal Cave is the only place where [[Shoal Salt|Shoal Salts]] and [[Shoal Shell|Shoal Shell]] can be found. | ||
