About Pokemon Ruby Version
Step back into 2002 and experience the magic of Pokemon Ruby Version, a role-playing game that defined an era for the Game Boy Advance. Developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company, this third-generation Pokemon game invites you to explore the breathtaking Hoenn region—a land of lush forests, volcanic mountains, and serene coastlines. Your mission as a new Pokémon Trainer is simple but epic: become the Hoenn Champion and save the world from Team Magma's destructive schemes.
How To Play
In Pokemon Ruby Version, your journey begins in the quaint Littleroot Town, where you’ll choose one of three unique starter Pokémon:
- Treecko (Grass-type): Agile and quick.
- Torchic (Fire-type): Fiery and fierce.
- Mudkip (Water-type): Loyal and steadfast.
From there, you'll capture and train over 200 Pokémon to build your ultimate team. Engaging in turn-based battles and utilizing Pokémon Abilities and Natures, you'll need strategy and skill to overcome Wild Pokémon, rival trainers, and powerful Gym Leaders. For the first time in the series, experience exciting Double Battles, where strategy takes a fresh twist with two Pokémon battling on each side.
Use the versatile PokéNav Utility, a tool that provides maps, Trainer tracking, and contest information to guide you through the vast and varied landscapes of Hoenn. The game also introduces Pokémon Contests, offering creative challenges to showcase your Pokémon’s unique traits.
