Tips

You can only enter after using Cut on the braille door in Ruin Valley.
There are no wild Pokémon or trainers, so you can take your time reading the braille clues on the way down.
At the bottom you find the Sapphire, but a scientist who followed you steals it, planning to sell it to Team Rocket, and flees.
The thief also lets slip the second Rocket Warehouse password, 'Yes, nah, Chansey'.
Take the Sapphire to Celio on One Island after you recover it from Gideon in the Rocket Warehouse.
