📖Story
Embark on a journey through the tropical Hoenn region, a land of diverse environments from volcanic mountains to vast oceans. Moving from Johto with your family, you'll start your adventure in Littleroot Town. Challenge eight Gym Leaders while confronting either Team Magma (Ruby) seeking to expand the land, or Team Aqua (Sapphire) seeking to expand the seas. Their plans involve awakening the ancient legendary Pokémon Groudon or Kyogre, with potentially catastrophic consequences.
