Ruby decides that if their opponents aren't fighting together, then it'd be best for him and Sapphire to work together to gain an advantage.
 
Ruby and Sapphire send their Pokémon and have them work together by complimenting their strengths and weaknesses.

Brawly's Hariyama continues to battle Blaise's Slugma, while at the Lilycove Inn, Roxanne sees the blast from Brawly's attacks and realizes he must be getting the upper hand. Courtney tells Roxanne to pay attention, and has her Ninetales leap at Roxanne's Cradily. Cradily uses its tentacles to tie Ninetales down, preventing it from moving. Roxanne figures out that Courtney is trying to lift the Block set on Groudon; a plan Courtney agrees to. Though Ninetales attacks Cradily, it regains strength quickly by using Ingrain to root itself to the earth through the floor of the inn and absorb energy.

A sudden rattling noise startles the two, and makes Roxanne realize that there might still be people hiding inside the inn. Courtney melts down the door to reveal a programmer, graphic designer, and game designer who are still stuck inside the building. Courtney threatens to use the same mix of acid and Berry Juice on the three people that she used to melt the door. Roxanne, unable to act, is forced to see Nosepass defeated by Ninetales, lifting the Block on Groudon in the process.

Deep inside the Seafloor Cavern, Kyogre and Groudon continue moving about whilst being controlled by the Red and Blue Orbs. Maxie and Archie approach Ruby and Sapphire and introduces themselves. Immediately, both parties send out their Pokémon to do battle against one another. After managing to hold down Maxie's Camerupt and Archie's Walrein, Ruby and Sapphire's other Pokémon charge at the villains, only to be knocked back by the power of the Red and Blue Orbs. The two quickly realize that the opponents they are facing are the leaders of the two teams they have faced during their adventure previously.

Ruby decides that if their opponents aren't fighting together, then it'd be best for him and Sapphire to work together to gain an advantage.

Ruby and Sapphire send their Pokémon and have them work together by complimenting their strengths and weaknesses.
