Description
Pokémon is back for another round catching and training! You're the new guy (or girl) in Littleroot Town, and the newest generation of Pokémon trainers. Professor Birch sends you on your way in your journey, with one of your choice of 3 starter Pokémon. There's Treecko (A grass-type chameleon-like little guy) Torchic (a Fire-type bird) and Mudkip (a Water-type amphibious creature).
Now, you've got a whole new world to explore in Hoenn, with eight new gyms and two-on-two battles, opening up a whole new myriad of tactics! New items, new Pokémon (over 350!!), and a new Pokédex to boot too! And of course we have our new villains, the nefarious Team Magma, who plan on submerging the world in water in order to call out the Legendary Groudon!
Only one person can stop them and become the ultimate Pokémon Master... You!

Trivia
The girl character in Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire became the basis for Haruka, one of the new characters to appear in the sixth anime series of Pocket Monsters: Pokémon Advance Generation.
The new Pokémon anime series is scheduled to debut in the U.S. in the fall of 2003, and Haruka's name will be changed to May. No word if the boy character in Ruby/Sapphire will show up in the series, but Team Magma and Team Aqua more than likely will (most of the other characters in the game already did, so why not?)
