Abandoned Ship Ruby & Sapphire · Dungeon

The Abandoned Ship is a wrecked ocean liner half-sunk on Route 108, between Dewford Town and Slateport City. You can explore the upper decks once you have Surf, but its flooded hidden floor needs Dive. The hidden rooms hold a chain of keys, the Scanner and TM18 Rain Dance, while TM13 Ice Beam is in the locked storage room on B1F.
