Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire/Trick House

The Trick House is owned by the Trick Master, who creates puzzles to challenge curious trainers. Everytime you enter, the room appears empty, though you will feel like you're being watched. The trick here is to spot the small sparkle. Approach the spot the sparkle was coming from and you'll find the one and only, Trick Master! He'll praise you for your sharp eye and gives you access to the puzzle room, which is behind the scroll on the back wall. You can only do each puzzle once and in a set order, and new puzzles will be available after you defeat gym leaders. Each puzzle has a "gimmick" to them, which will be explained in more detail below.

Puzzle 1: Cut Maze
The first puzzle is available from the start, and it isn't even a puzzle! All it requires is for you to use Cut on the trees that block your way in the maze. You'll need to battle some trainers, but the ultimate goal is to find the scroll located somewhere in the room that contains the password and then make your way to the door at the top right which requires the password. You don't have to memorise the password yourself, but you do have to find the scroll that has it. The room's layout varies between Ruby/Sapphire and Emerald. There is an Orange Mail near the exit, though it requires you to do more cutting to reach it.

Complete the challenge and you get a Rare Candy. A very good prize, though it's a pity you can only get it once.

Puzzle 2: Hole Maze
Step on the switches to cover the holes leading to the scroll. Memorize the password on the scroll, and enter it at the door to win. Completion of the level earns you a Timer Ball. This level also contains three Trainers, Wave Mail, and Harbor Mail.
