At the [[Rustboro Gym]], the player battles Roxanne and earns the {{Badge|Stone}}; afterwards, the player runs into the Devon Researcher from Petalburg Woods. He tells the player that he has been robbed by Team Magma{{sup|Ru}}/Team Aqua{{sup|Sa}} and that the player must get the [[Devon Goods]] back from the evil team. The player then heads out onto {{rt|116|Hoenn}} and discovers an old man named [[Mr. Briney]] who tells them that the villainous team has also taken his {{p|Wingull}} [[Peeko]] hostage and gone into the [[Rusturf Tunnel]]. The player confronts the grunt inside the tunnel and retrieves the Devon Goods, as well as rescuing Peeko. | At the [[Rustboro Gym]], the player battles Roxanne and earns the {{Badge|Stone}}; afterwards, the player runs into the Devon Researcher from Petalburg Woods.

The player then meets [[Mr. Stone]], the president of the [[Devon Corporation]], who asks that the player stop by [[Dewford Town]] and deliver a letter to his son {{Steven}}; as thanks for the player's earlier work, Mr. Stone gives the player a [[PokéNav]]. The player heads back through the Petalburg Woods to [[Mr. Briney]]'s house, where he gives the player a ride down {{rt|105|Hoenn}} to Dewford Town. Just north of Dewford on {{rt|106|Hoenn}} is the [[Granite Cave]] where Steven is exploring. The player obtains {{HM|05|Flash}} at the entrance, but it will not work without the [[Dewford Gym]]'s Badge. After earning the {{Badge|Knuckle}} from Brawly, the player can now use Flash to find Steven in the Granite Cave and deliver the letter. Steven rewards the player with {{TM|47|Steel Wing}} and tells the player that they could potentially become the Pokémon League Champion. | ||
After leaving Dewford Town, Mr. Briney takes the player across {{rt|107|Hoenn}} and {{rt|108|Hoenn}} to {{rt|109|Hoenn}}, just south of Slateport City. When the player arrives in Slateport, there is a noticeable crowd of Team Magma{{sup|Ru}}/Team Aqua{{sup|Sa}} grunts blocking the entrance to the [[Oceanic Museum]]. When the player tries to drop off the Devon Goods at [[Stern's Shipyard]], they learn that [[Captain Stern]] is in the Oceanic Museum. Once the player finds Captain Stern, they are confronted by two villainous grunts, and after defeating them, the villainous team's leader [[Maxie]]{{sup|Ru}}/[[Archie]]{{sup|Sa}} appears and tells the player of their plans before warning not to get in the way again. | After leaving Dewford Town, Mr. Briney takes the player across {{rt|107|Hoenn}} and {{rt|108|Hoenn}} to {{rt|109|Hoenn}}, just south of Slateport City.

Each game features 135 new Pokémon species, and pre-recorded data for each of them, plus the 251 Pokémon of previous generations. Despite this, not all Pokémon are available to the player. Regardless of version; trades must occur between players in order to complete their Pokédex without the use of cheats or glitches. Latios (Sapphire event only), Latias (Ruby event only), Jirachi and Deoxys are the only {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} in Ruby and Sapphire that must be acquired through outside means, such as attending Nintendo sponsored event, or using a cheating device. Other Pokémon, such as {{p|Bulbasaur}}, not featured in the [[Hoenn Pokédex]] must be traded from a [[Generation III]] game in which they are found. | Each game features 135 new Pokémon species, and pre-recorded data for each of them, plus the 251 Pokémon of previous generations.

This glitch is able to be corrected, however, by downloading the Berry patch from either the {{g|Colosseum}} [[Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc|bonus disc]], or {{3v2|FireRed|LeafGreen|Emerald}}. These games also host several [[glitch Pokémon]], such as [[Ten question marks|??????????]] or [[Bad Egg]]. | ||
