Tips

  • Ruby: battle Magma Admin Tabitha (Numel, Poochyena, Numel, Lv. 20) and then Maxie. Sapphire: Aqua Admin Matt (Carvanha, Poochyena, Carvanha, Lv. 20) and then Archie.
  • After beating the leader, take the Meteorite from the machine and bring it back to Professor Cozmo in Fallarbor Town.
  • After you reach Lavaridge Town, an old woman appears at the summit selling Lava Cookies for ¥200 each. They cure any status condition.
  • Expert Shelby (Meditite, Makuhita, Lv. 22) has four PokéNav rematches; the three Beauties each use a single Lv. 22 Pokémon.
  • There are no wild Pokémon on the summit, so heal up before you ride the cable car up to the team battles.
