In the flooded, collapsing ruins of [[Slateport City]], the {{tc|Swimmer}} and [[blind boy]] attempt to make their way out of the storm. The boy refuses to leave because of his promise to {{Steven}}, but the Swimmer states that if he dies, then he wouldn't be able to keep the promise. Suddenly, a building collapses on top of the two, but a {{m|Shadow Punch}} from an unknown source immediately destroys it and saves the two. The person who saved them is revealed to be [[Phoebe]], a member of the [[Hoenn]] [[Elite Four]].

After introducing herself to the boy, Phoebe reports to Steven, through her [[Pokégear]], that she had found the person she was looking for. Steven thanks Phoebe, and has her tell the boy to read the code on top of the slab. [[Wallace]] asks Steven what he is planning, but Steven tells him to go to [[Sootopolis City]] and that he'll join him later. Wallace listens to what Steven says and takes off with the Champion's cloak.

[[Wallace]] asks Steven what he is planning, but Steven tells him to go to [[Sootopolis City]] and that he'll join him later. Wallace listens to what Steven says and takes off with the Champion's cloak.


Steven asks the boy to decode the slab, as it holds the key to awakening the three Pokémon that can help stop {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}—{{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}. The boy tries his hardest to decode the [[Braille]], but due to a missing piece, he is unable to completely read the text on the slab. This causes Steven to lose hope, as the boy's sense of touch was the only thing they had that could help them awaken the three Pokémon.

At the [[Team Aqua Hideout]], [[Wattson]], [[Flannery]], and [[Winona]] examine the abandoned building, where they find [[Professor Cozmo]] tied up. They rescue the Professor and take him to the [[Pokémon Association]]'s headquarters, where he is reunited with his staff. Winona tells Wattson and Flannery to stay behind and tend to their injuries while she goes on ahead to help stop Kyogre and Groudon in Sootopolis. Winona calls the Pokémon Association Chairman and informs him of the current situation. As Winona and Wallace head towards Sootoplis, the Pokémon Association Chairman sends a message throughout Hoenn asking for the help of Trainers.

Wallace and Winona arrive and rush in to help get their pupils out of the crossfire. They manage to wake the two up, surprising their students at the sight of their teachers being there. Ruby and Sapphire blame themselves for causing the destruction that's going on right now, and decide that it'd be best to just run away. Wallace and Winona shake their students out of their stupor by reminding them that they have loved ones they need to fight for and protect. Their words remind Ruby and Sapphire that they have a dear friend from their past that they'd like to see once more despite not even remembering their faces.

They reveal that in the past, they both had very different personalities compared to how they act now. For Ruby, he was a mischievous young boy who loved battling, while Sapphire was very docile and hated battling. Five years prior, in the [[Johto]] region, Ruby's [[mother]] celebrates with [[Norman]] over his upcoming [[Gym Leader]] inauguration test. [[Professor Birch|Birch]] jokingly points out that anything can happen during the test. They wonder where the children are, only to see the two of them playing together.

As the young Ruby and Sapphire play together, the present day versions state that it was the best times of their lives, until a certain event happened. Suddenly, a wild {{p|Salamence}} attacks the two children. Although Ruby manages to fend it off, he is given a bloody head wound from Salamence's {{m|Dragon Claw}}, which brings Sapphire to tears. After that event, Ruby realized that because of his aggressiveness, he caused Sapphire to cry, while Sapphire realized that because she was weak, she caused Ruby to get hurt. Because of this, Ruby decided to focus on beauty and quit battles, while Sapphire learned how to become stronger. They promise that when they meet their special person once more, they'll be able to show them how much they've changed.

The Magic Coat begins crumbling, so Winona and Wallace evacuate their students and encourage them to not give up. Upon regrouping, the group decides to think of a new plan to stop the destruction. Ruby suggests destroying the powers of the Red and Blue Orbs inside of Maxie and Archie's bodies, but using Pokémon attacks might harm the hosts. Suddenly, the meteor fragment that Winona picked up when Sapphire dropped it earlier begins glowing inside of her hand. They realize that with the meteor's ability to stop the power of nature, they can use it to stop the powers of the Red and Blue Orbs and turn Maxie and Archie back to normal.
