Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions (2002)
Step into the vibrant world of the Hoenn region with Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, groundbreaking role-playing games developed by Game Freak for the Game Boy Advance. As the first entries in the third generation, these titles introduce exciting new features such as double battles, Pokémon abilities, and a fresh roster of 135 Pokémon. Experience enhanced multiplayer capabilities, allowing four players to connect simultaneously, and enjoy seamless integration with e-Readers and other third-generation Pokémon titles.
Embark on an epic quest to catch every Pokémon and challenge the formidable Elite Four, all while thwarting a sinister criminal organization bent on regional domination. The gameplay remains true to its roots, offering an overhead perspective and familiar controls, but with richer graphics and more dynamic battles.
In 2014, the adventure was reborn on the Nintendo 3DS with Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire—remakes that celebrate the 12th anniversary of the originals, delivering stunning visuals and modernized gameplay while preserving the beloved core experience.
Reception was largely positive, with praise for the engaging gameplay and improvements, though some critics noted similarities to earlier titles and connectivity limitations. Despite mixed reviews, Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire achieved remarkable commercial success, selling over 16.22 million copies worldwide—making them the best-selling titles on the Game Boy Advance, though they sold fewer copies than their predecessors, Red/Blue and Gold/Silver.
