Steven is Hoenn’s Champion in Ruby and Sapphire and takes an interest in rare stones. His encounters with the player connect exploration with high-level battling.

  • Story: Delivering the letter in Granite Cave introduces him early. He later becomes the final League opponent after Sidney, Phoebe, Glacia and Drake.
  • In the game: His six-Pokémon Champion team has level 55–58 members and a level 58 Metagross. His Steel theme includes Rock, Ground and Psychic coverage, so plan for individual dual types and moves.
