Question

Answer 1

You have to find team rockets sub first and battle through, Groduon will be released and it will rain heavily. Head back to Stoopolious and head north, there you will find Steven talking to a man (Wallace) With the red orb they will ask you to go into the cave and stop Groudon. Enter and head through, the way is pretty easy and as you get closer the ground will shake. You will find yourself in a small room with a pool of water where Groudon is.

Defeat/Catch him and head outside where the rain has stopped and the eigth gym is now unlocked, head through and be careful of the breakable ice!

Answer 5

Answer 6

You have to fight team aqua, I think

Go to the house North-West of the Pokemon Center.This is Daigo's house. He
will give you HM 08.

With this HM, you'll be able to dive underwater in a deeper water (the darker
blue color). Now Rune City, the place of the last gym will be accesible. You
can go there if you wish. However, there are nothing you can do at the moment
as the gym is locked.

The Final Showdown against Magma/Aqua - Seafloor Cavern.
Surf to the South and dive underwater if you see a deeper area of water. Find a
cave with a submarines and suberged back. Now continue surfing and you'll find
yourself in a cave. Be prepared to fight your final showdown against Team
Magma/Aqua. Make sure you bring a Pokemon that knows strength and Rock Smash,
as you will need them to progress further down the cave.

On the first chamber you will see two boulders and one rock. Go to the left,
smash the rock and push the boulder down. Now head to the right and push the
right boulder to the right. By doing this, you could continue straight. Fight
the trainer and go to the nect chamber using the cave opening instead of
climbing the stairs.

Here, you will see something like this:
(#) - Boulder
# - Rock
XXX- Wall
! - You are here

(7)# (6)
XXXX XXXXX XXXX
(4) (5)
XXXX XXXXX XXXX (3)
(2) (1)
XXXX XXXXX ! XXXX

Push Boulder no 1 up, head left and oush Boulder 2 to the left. Now continue
upwards and push Boulder 4 to make the way. Go to the boulder 5 and push it all
the way to the right. Head up and push Boulder 6 up. Finally, head left, smash
the rock and push Boulder 7 out of the way to go into the next chamber.

Here, you'll be in a room with 1 Pokeball. It contain TM 26, Earthquake.
Continue to the next room.

(7) (8) (9)
(5) (6)
(3) (4)
(2)
-------(1)

!

Push boulder 1 one square up, Push boulder 2 one sqaure right. push Boulder 3
to the left. Push Boulder 6 to the right. Finally push boulder 9 to the right.


(9)(A) (B)(C)
(6)(7)(8)
(4) (5)
(1)(2)(3)

!

Push boulder 2 up one square, Push Boulder 1 and 3 to the side. Push boulder 2
aside. Push boulder 7 up. Push Boulder 6 and 8 to the side. Push boulder 7
again up one square. Push both Boulder A and B up. Now push boulder 7 either to
the left or right.

Now you should end up in a chamber full with mist. Make your way down the
flight of stairs. In the centre, you will see a lava/lake with Groudon/Kyogre.
Go near it (at the center), and Archie/Maxie will suddenly appear. Time for
final battle vs Team Aqua/Magma.

Aqua Leader Archie
Mightyena lvl 41
Crobat lvl 41
Sharpedo lvl 43

Magma Leader Maxie
Mightyena lvl 41
Crobat lvl 41
Camerupt lvl 43

Defeat the leader, and the whole place will shook and the legendary Pokemon
make it's exit. Soon, a leader of the rival group will arrive and you'll find
yourself in the sea. If you are playing Sapphire, the seas will be stormy due
to Kyogre's escape. If you are playing Ruby the weather will turn extrely sunny
due to Groudon escape. The Legendary Pokemon had been awakened from its deep
long sleep.

Suddenly, Steven will come and explained to you that the Legendary Pokemon has
been awakened and it has cause a major climate catasthrope in the region. Now,
you must head for Sootopolis City to stop this mess.

-------------------------------------------
R. Sootopolis City - A city long forgotten
-------------------------------------------
Head to the left part to the town until you see Steven talking to someone. This
is the gym leader of Sootopolis - Wallace. After this, Wallace will take you to
the cave which you couldn't enter previously. This is the Cave of Origin.
Legend said that life beagn at cave origin and ends at Mt Pyre. Its time to
descend to the ancient cave to stop the Legendary Pokemon once and for all.

Cave of Origin
HM needed: Flash

Enter the cave and make your way to the bottom. Make sure you bring with you a
Pokemon who knows Flash. Here you will find the legendary Pokemon that escaped
previously. In order to progress in the game, you need to defeat or capture the
Pokemon. It will be at level 45, and it will be a major boost to your team if
you managed to catch it. Also, remember to get HM 07 Waterfall from the cave.


Back to Sootopolis

Now heal your Pokemon, and head to the gym. You need to solve a puzzle to get
to the gym leader. In order for a ladder to apear, you need to step one every
single block of ice, and a ladder will appear. Otherwise, you'll fall down to a
place infested with junior trainers. Get your electric Pokemon out to beat the
gym as it is a Water gym. Now you'll be able to use waterfall outside battle.
With 8 badges you can go to the Pokemon leauge now.

8th gym puzzle:
You'll be familiar with this puzzle if you have played Zelda: Link to the past
before. The objective of this puzzle is to step on all the ice squares once. If
you stepped on it twice, you'll fall down to the basement where junior trainers
await.

Follow the numerical value from the lowest to the highest to get through the
puzzle.

value.

your collection of badges. Time to head for the leauge.
