You can catch both groudon and kyogre (probably the reason why ppl say this game is remake of ruby/sapphire combined). Be happy you can catch them both -_- lol!!! Also, in this game, the pokemon moves (like in Pokemon Crystal). In the end, you can also have gold/silver pokemon! And, in this version, you are against both teammagma AND aqua....makes it a little more realistic (according to cartoon..that is!) In ruby, u are against only magma, and seems like u are WITH aqua...and vice versa in sapphire. Both teams are actually "bad guys" who use pokemon for selfish purposes (gain land/sea...). In conclusion.....great game.....u might get tired of the map (same with ruby/sapphire). If u have played ruby/sapphire not long ago, wait a few months before playing emerald! ^^
