==Synopsis==
==Synopsis==
In the [[Battle Dome]], an [[Aroma Lady]] that {{adv|Emerald}} is up against orders a {{m|Giga Drain}} from her {{p|Vileplume}}. {{p|Dusclops}}, however, manages to dodge and faints Vileplume with a head-on {{m|Fire Punch}}. [[Scott]] congratulates Emerald on his win, and Emerald explains that with the Battle Points he accumulated from the other facilities he visited, he made a few changes to his Pokémon's movesets. He begins to refer to the nearby chart, and Scott confirms that the Battle Dome emphasizes the use of "Tactics", in order to discern the strengths and weaknesses of opponents. Emerald soon charges into his next battle against a [[Ranger]].
{{spoilers}}
In the Battle Dome, {{adv|Emerald}} faces {{tc|Aroma Lady}} Yayoi in battle. Yayoi has her {{p|Vileplume}} use a {{m|Giga Drain}} on Emerald's {{p|Dusclops}}, but he easily sends it flying with {{m|Fire Punch}}. Having won the battle, Emerald moves onto the semifinals of the tournament. When [[Scott]] asks how he taught Dusclops Fire Punch, Emerald reveals that he used the Battle Points saved up from the other facilities to teach it the move.
 
Emerald notes how convenient it is that the Battle Dome gives him a Battle Card that gives him information on his opponents. Scott states that the key to beating the Battle Dome is picking the right tactics against their opponent with previously given information. After checking the Battle Card again, Emerald goes into his next battle against {{tc|Ranger}} Masaharu.
 
On the [[S.S. Tidal|S.S. Tide-Rip]], [[Wanda|Wallene]] and {{adv|Riley}} say their wedding vows. As the two exchange rings, {{adv|Sapphire}} looks in awe about how romantic a shipboard wedding is. [[Winona]] notes how she had to be there to give her blessings after how much they helped in the {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} crisis. Sapphire jokes that Winona could consider a romantic wedding herself, but the Gym Leader notes how her past relationship with [[Wallace]] didn't work out. Sapphire questions this by bringing up how Wallace renounced his title as Champion so he could be close to Winona. Winona states that because she had been burdened to have another person who was much stronger than her always by her side. Sapphire begins teasing Winona by stating that she must have fell in love with him again after the crisis.
 
Winona counters by bringing up Sapphire's relationship with {{adv|Ruby}}. Sapphire states that it's over between them, as Ruby claims to have forgotten everything because when they left [[Mirage Island]]. Ruby appears with Wallace and demands to know what Sapphire and Winona are chattering about. Offended at Ruby's statement, Sapphire starts bickering with Ruby as per usual. Wallace calms them down by stating that while he and Winona have to go to the wedding reception, Ruby and Sapphire have a mission: to compete in the Battle Dome and meet the third Hoenn Pokédex holder


On the [[S.S. Tidal]], a wedding between [[Wanda]] and [[Riley]] is held - with an awestruck {{adv|Sapphire}} and her mentor, [[Winona]] as part of the congregation. Winona explains that she was obliged to grace the event given Wanda and Riley's help in the evacuation of Hoenn, and Sapphire jokes that Winona could consider a romantic wedding herself. Winona shyly eyes [[Wallace]] from afar standing next to {{adv|Ruby}}, reminding Sapphire that her past relationship with Wallace didn't quite work out. Sapphire is certain that Wallace was serious over Winona given that he renounced his Championship title to be with her, but Winona admits that she felt uncomfortable with another person she could not match up to. Sapphire continues to tease Winona until Winona responds with asking her about her relationship with Ruby. Angrily, Sapphire explains that she thinks the relationship is over, because every time she attempted to bring up their [[PS259|joint confession]], Ruby would claim no memory of the event or how they resolved the crisis in Hoenn. Sapphire rants that while Ruby claimed that his memory loss was a result of moving in and out of [[Mirage Island]]'s anomalous time patterns, she is adamant that he is purposely avoiding the issue. Ruby, alerted by Sapphire's outburst, moves over, and the two begin to bicker until Wallace gently reminds them that they're here on a mission: to journey to the Battle Frontier and meet up with the third [[Pokédex holder]] from Hoenn.
At {{adv|Professor Oak}}'s laboratory, Oak thanks [[Professor Birch]] for deploying Ruby and Sapphire to help Emerald out. Birch begins to reminisce about {{p|Treecko}}, one of the three Pokémon he had on hand along with {{p|Torchic}}, {{p|Mudkip}}, and three Pokédexes. The latter two Pokémon were given to Sapphire and Ruby, but due to him being caught in a flood. Birch lost track of Treecko and his last Pokédex. The last he'd heard of both were from a boy named {{adv|Wally}}, who had found and returned the Pokédex with a letter explaining that Treecko had evolved into a {{p|Grovyle}} but was apparently blasted away when {{p|Rayquaza}} was awakened on the [[Sky Pillar]]. Nonetheless, Birch is hopeful that Grovyle is faring well.

The last he'd heard of both were from a boy named {{adv|Wally}}, who had found both and returned the Pokédex with a letter, which explained his circumstances and mentioned that Treecko had evolved into a {{p|Grovyle}}. However, as a result of {{p|Rayquaza}}'s departure, Grovyle was apparently blasted away and Wally lost track of it then. Nonetheless, Birch is hopeful that Grovyle is faring well.
Back at the Battle Dome, Emerald's {{p|Sudowoodo}} faces off against an {{p|Ursaring}}. Sudowoodo is almost hit, but uses {{m|Counter}} to defeat Ursaring and win the battle for Emerald. The announcer calls a fifteen minute break, so Emerald decides to take a break somewhere else. Outside the Battle Dome, Ruby talks to [[Mr. Briney]], who states that he will return in three days. Sapphire wonders how they will be able to find Emerald, but Ruby states that their Pokédexes will create a beeping sound when all three a put near each other.


Back at the Dome, Emerald achieves his victory against the Ranger and goes to relieve himself. Ruby and Sapphire, having disembarked from the S.S. Tidal, discuss their mission to find the third Pokédex holder; Sapphire reveals that her father told her that the three Pokédexes would give off a unique beeping noise when in proximity. At that point, the Pokédexes begin to ring, prompting the two to search for the third Pokédex. Looking up at the Battle Dome, Ruby and Sapphire begin to marvel at a rainbow coming from the rooftop before recoiling in horror: the rainbow was a result of Emerald's cascading urine. Annoyed by the beeping noise, Emerald turns in the direction of Ruby and Sapphire to investigate, making the two scream from the moving stream of urine. A perturbed Ruby, annoyed Sapphire and Sceptile turn off the Pokédex resonation signal, surprising Emerald who hadn't guessed Sceptile knew what the sound was. Emerald demands Ruby and Sapphire's identities, only to be annoyed by Ruby inspecting his clothes for pee and Sapphire irked by Ruby's fastidious behaviour. Less than impressed, Emerald repeats his queries, and Ruby and Sapphire formally introduce themselves as allies for Emerald.
Suddenly, their Pokédexes begins beeping, indicating that Emerald is somewhere nearby. Suddenly, a rainbow appears in the sky. Ruby and Sapphire take the time to admire it, but they soon look up to see that the rainbow was created by Emerald's urine. Emerald, annoyed at the strange beeping sound, begins to turn around to look where it's coming from, causing Ruby and Sapphire to scream. A horrified Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald's {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}} turn off the beeping sound on their Pokédexes.
 
Emerald thanks Sceptile for turning the sound off, but questions how it knew how to do that. Emerald turns around and demands Ruby and Sapphire's identities, only to be annoyed by Ruby inspecting his clothes for pee and Sapphire getting annoyed by Ruby's vanity. Annoyed, Emerald repeats his question, and Ruby and Sapphire formally introduce themselves as allies and Pokédex holders.
