Bring Fossil to Life

Go to Route 111, go to the sandstorm, and go all the way to the right. There you will find two fossils--the Claw Fossil and the Root Fossil. Pick one, then go to Rustboro City. Go to the president's office and go in a room with lots of scientists. Talk to the one in the lower right hand corner. Then go outside and walk around for about 30 seconds and go back in to talk to the same scientist as before. He will give you your Pokemon from the fossil.

How to Get a Masterball

In team aqua/magma's hideout is the easiest place to get the masterball. Step in to the room with the teleport pads then find the right one that will leave you to the office. You'll see four balls so get the ones at the left because the right ones are electrodes. You should get a gold nugget and a masterball. Remember you won’t get it later in the game.

Open The Regirock/Registeel/Regice Lairs

NOTE: You need a Relicanth and a Wailord on your team.

At the sealed chamber midway between Pacifidlog and Slateport (accessible only from Pacifidlog) use Dive to enter a tunnel that leads to a slab with braille. Surface there and enter the sealed chamber.

The next step is to go to the back of that room and use Dig on the space where you see braille in the back of the room to open up the next area.

Go to the rear part of the second room and read the inscriptions. It says you must have a Relicanth in the lead slot and a Wailord in the last slot (of your Pokemon line-up). You will then open up the entrances to each lair.

Exclusive Pokemon Groudon

The Ruby version allows you to catch the ancient Pokemon Groudon. It's only available in Ruby, and you only face it once... in the Cave of Origin in Sootopolis City. Save your Master Ball so you'll be sure to capture it at this encounter.

Find Shell Bell and Shiny Spheal

In the Shoal Cave north of the hunter's house is Shoal Stone and Shoal Sand. The sand is easy to find in mounds but you have to wait for the tide to get the stone. Randomly you'll find a Shiny Spheal.

Safari Madness

You can get "free" time in the safari zone by simply not moving from the area where your target pokemon is. Stand on one square in that zone and lightly tap the D-pad to change the character's facing. Each facing doesn't count towards the step-limit but will count for having an encounter.

Submitted by Morpheous

Alternately, use the bike to hop-move around. Once you enter the Safari Zone get on the bike and hold B to start hopping. Press the direction you want to go while hopping (to avoid using steps) and you can stay as long as you like.
