Rydel's Cycles

Here you are given your very own bike! You are given the option of taking the Acro Bike and the Mach Bike. The Acro bike is slower, but has better acceleration and is easier to turn. Your choice does not make a major difference, as you can exchange bikes at any time. However, each bike allows certain places to be accessible.

Mauville Game Corner

The Mauville Game corner has lots of TMs. This Game Corner has Psychic, Flamethrower, Ice Beam and Thunderbolt! This is the only Game Corner in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. There is another Game Corner in Mossdeep City for Emerald users.

In order to play at the Game Corner, you first must acquire a Coin Case. Talk to the lady in the house beside the Poké Mart. She will mention Harbor Mail, which needs to be bought in Slateport City. If you didn't buy it or obtain it at the Trick House's second puzzle, you can take the bike route there and back. The Harbor Mail may be exchanged for the Coin Case.

The Game Corner has two games - slot machine (with a chance of a high payout), or roulette (which has a slow but steady payout.)

Mauville City Gym

This Gym specializes in Electric types. It is recommended that you bring a Rock Type Pokémon like Geodude which can be found in Granite Cave in Dewford Town.

Ruby and Sapphire Youngster Ben Zigzagoon (lvl. 17) Gulpin (lvl. 17) Ruby and Sapphire Bug Maniac Angelo Illumise (lvl. 17) Volbeat (lvl. 17) Ruby and Sapphire Guitarist Shawn Voltorb (lvl. 17) Magnemite (lvl. 17) Ruby and Sapphire Guitarist Kirk Electrike (lvl. 17) Voltorb (lvl. 17) Ruby and Sapphire Battle Girl Vivian Meditite (lvl. 17) Meditite (lvl. 17) Kirk and Vivian can be fought individually or as a duel battle. Ruby and Sapphire Gym Leader: Wattson Voltorb (lvl. 20) Electrike (lvl. 20) Magneton (lvl. 22) Manectric (lvl. 24)

Ruby and Sapphire Guitarist Kirk Electrike (lvl. 17) Magnemite (lvl. 18) 576 Ruby and Sapphire Youngster Ben Zigzagoon (lvl. 19) 304 Ruby and Sapphire Guitarist Shawn Voltorb (lvl. 17) Voltorb (lvl. 17) Voltorb (lvl. 17) 544 Ruby and Sapphire Battle Girl Vivian Meditite (lvl. 19) 456 Ruby and Sapphire Leader Wattson Magnemite (lvl. 22) Voltorb (lvl. 20) (Self Destruct) Magneton (lvl. 23) Super Potion *2 2300

Wattson can be the first major challenge for many trainers. His Pokemon will electrocute Flying and Water types, and his Magnemite and Magneton will resist most forms of damage. To top things off, Voltorb is a powerful speedster, with Sonicboom and Selfdestruct threatening to deal relatively major damage.

A ground type Pokemon like Geodude will be immune to dangerous electric attacks, although it will still have worries thanks to the sheer power of Wattson's attacks. If you picked Torchic to start with or have gotten yourself a Pokemon with Fighting moves, you will be glad to hear that Magnemite and Magneton are weak against Fire and Fighting attacks.

Beating Wattson wins you TM34, which is Shockwave. This allows you to use Rock Smash outside of battle, and complete the route between Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire/Verdanturf Town and continue north along Route 111.
