Pokémon (Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald versions), whose versions are commonly referred to individually as Pokémon Ruby, Pokémon Sapphire, and Pokémon Emerald, and collectively as "Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire" or "Pokémon Advance", is the third installment in the Pokémon franchise and the first Pokémon game on the Game Boy Advance. It features over 100 new species of Pokémon and a new region called Hoenn. Like past Pokémon installments, the player's main objective is to collect eight gym badges and raise their Pokémon's level through battles. The game features new rival teams called Team Aqua and Team Magma that play a big part in the story line. The new Pokémon in this game are known to be the third generation Pokémon. This game was initially, released in Ruby and Sapphire versions. Later on, an Emerald version was introduced. Somewhat of a mix between Ruby and Sapphire, Emerald featured a slightly altered story; most notably the Champion of the elite four being replaced by the original 8th Gym Leader, the 8th Gym Leader being replaced with another man, and the abblity to catch both Groudon and Kyogre. You can obtain all pokemon from the other installments through trading.
