A collector of rare stones, Steven is the son of the [[Mr. Stone|president]] of the [[Devon Corporation]], and makes his home in [[Mossdeep City]]. In {{game|Emerald}}, he is no longer the Champion—due to [[Wallace]] taking his place—and instead wanders the Hoenn region, aiding the {{player}} on their {{pkmn|journey}}.

==In the core series games==

In {{game|Emerald}}, Steven is a powerful, wandering Trainer who gave up competing seriously to spend more time looking for rare rocks and stones, which he claims he would {{m|Waterfall|climb waterfalls}} to find. Fittingly, the {{player}} can find and challenge him in the upper area of [[Meteor Falls]] after they defeat the new Champion, [[Wallace]].

Steven will work as the player's partner during the Multi Battle against {{FB|Magma Admin|Courtney}} and a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}}{{sup/6|OR}}/{{FB|Aqua Admin|Matt}} and a {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}}{{sup/6|AS}} on [[Southern Island]].

Steven reappeared in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where he battled [[Alain]] using his {{Shiny}} [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Steven|Metagross}}, but the battle was interrupted by [[Lysandre]]. Deciding to cooperate with Alain and company, Steven traveled to their destination, a small temple with two pillars in the center. When Alain and Steven held their [[Key Stone]]s to the monument, a staircase of light appeared to lead them further within the ancient ruin. There, they discovered a similar mechanism that summoned a glowing [[Giant Rock]] from underneath the ruin. After Lysandre and his research team began analyzing the giant stone, a {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Rayquaza}} appeared from the sky, Mega Evolved into Mega Rayquaza, and started wreaking havoc on the surrounding area. Alain, Steven, and their Mega Pokémon partners tried to fend off the Legendary Pokémon, but were overwhelmed.

In this [[series]], Steven was confirmed to be the current Champion of the Hoenn League, indicating that Wallace no longer holds the title. In ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', Steven brought Alain and [[Mairin]] to the [[Devon Corporation]] headquarters to analyze the situation of the missing Giant Rock. There, they received a conference call from Lysandre, who informed them that both {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Groudon (XY)|Groudon}} and {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Kyogre (XY)|Kyogre}} have undergone [[Primal Reversion]] and were set to collide in the middle of the ocean. Steven recalled the Primal Reversion myth, and feared that the two Pokémon clashing again could have catastrophic consequences. As a result, he and Alain departed on a plane to check on the situation from the sky, with Mairin secretly stowing away with them.

Being the gentle and playful person as he is, he was not worried one bit, when he and his {{TP|Steven Stone|Metagross}} were outnumbered by Mable and {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s during their battle, also reflecting his strong bond and great confidence in his Pokémon. He tends to appreciate others for their efforts, and has a great sense of honor for fellow [[Pokémon Champion|Champion]]s, as displayed during his interactions with [[Diantha]].

|desc=Steven sent out this {{Shiny}} {{p|Metagross}} against [[Alain's Charizard]]. It also fought against {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Rayquaza}} and assisted in protecting the [[Giant Rock]] against {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Groudon (XY)|Primal Groudon}} and {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Kyogre (XY)|Primal Kyogre}}. It has the ability to Mega Evolve into Mega Metagross.}}

===In the Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer===

 

|trainer=Steven

|desc=Metagross is Steven's only known Pokémon. It appeared along with him at a stadium in [[Pasio]]. Alongside [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] and [[Lance's Dragonite]], it battled [[Korrina's Lucario]], [[Cheren]]'s {{p|Stoutland}}, and [[Misty's Starmie]]. Metagross used Flash Cannon on the opposing Pokémon, but they managed to defend themselves with their own attacks.}}

Steven is the Champion of the Hoenn [[region]], having taken the title from Wallace after he decided to become the {{ci|Sootopolis}} [[Gym Leader]] despite winning the Pokémon League. Along with his father, [[Mr. Stone]], Steven was aware of the actions of [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] and their goal to awaken the Legendary Pokémon {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Groudon}} and {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Kyogre}}. In order to prevent this from happening, Steven and his father had the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] created so that they may travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] and create a seal to prevent the villains from reaching the Pokémon.

In ''[[PS250|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XII]]'', Steven appears to save [[Wallace]] from a rampaging Tabitha, who had gone berserk after coming in contact with the Blue Orb. He reveals that after the Submarine Explorer 1 was stolen by Team Magma, Steven traveled to other regions to look for allies to help when Groudon and Kyogre are awakened. Steven's search led him to the Hoenn Elite Four, as they were the only people who he could think of that could help. Steven has Wallace head to Sootopolis City while he says behind to defeat Tabitha. Before Wallace leaves, Steven relinquishes his Champion cloak and passes the title of Hoenn League Champion over to him.  

In ''[[PS253|A Royal Rumble with Regirock, Regice and Registeel I]]'', Steven arrives at Sootopolis, only to find the entire island surrounded in an explosion of energy. He finds {{adv|Sapphire}} in the middle of the explosion and goes to rescue her. Sapphire reveals that she was tasked with giving Steven a [[letter]] by Mr. Stone. Steven is given the letter, which contains the missing piece of the stone slab. With it, the blind boy is able to figure out that they need a {{p|Wailord}} and {{p|Relicanth}} to open the caves where Registeel, Regirock, and Regice sleep. Sapphire uses her Lorry and Relly to open the caves, allowing Steven to obtain the three Legendary Pokémon. Despite this victory, another explosion separates Sapphire from Steven, causing her and Ruby to end up on {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}.  

{{p|Registeel}} was awakened by Steven and the Elite Four to be used to contain Groudon and Kyogre's power. Steven controlled Registeel with Wallace while the others controlled Regice and Regirock. After Steven died from the strain of controlling the three Pokémon, Registeel lashed out and ran away. It was later found by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} and captured.}}

* In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, Steven states that his favorite Pokémon is {{p|Beldum}} and that his favorite move is {{m|Steel Wing}}. Consequently, he leaves Beldum in his house as a {{pkmn2|gift}} for the {{player}}, and gives the player the TM for Steel Wing in [[Granite Cave]].

* If the player has Steven's {{Shiny}} Beldum, Steven makes a nod to [[Alain]], his [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X, and the events of ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'' during the [[Delta Episode]] in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
