The '''Seafloor Cavern''' (Japanese: '''かいていどうくつ''' ''Seabed Cavern'') is a location in Hoenn, deep beneath the seas of {{rt|128|Hoenn}}. In order to reach it, {{player}}s must have {{m|Dive}} and {{m|Surf}}, as well as the proper [[Badge]]s ({{Badge|Balance}} and {{Badge|Mind}}) to use the moves outside of battle. Once inside, {{m|Strength}} and {{m|Rock Smash}} are also required.
The '''Seafloor Cavern''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|海底洞窟|かいていどうくつ}}''' ''Seabed Cavern'') is a location in Hoenn, deep beneath the water of {{rt|128|Hoenn}}. After surfacing inside the cave, there is a maze of tunnels to the deepest part, where the super-ancient Pokémon resides.


The search for the cavern begins when [[Team Aqua]]{{sup/3|Sa}}{{sup/3|E}} or [[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|Ru}} steals a [[Submarine Explorer 1|submarine]] from [[Captain Stern]]. In Ruby, the cavern is the home of {{p|Groudon}}, who sleeps at its deepest part, while in Sapphire and Emerald, {{p|Kyogre}} is the Pokémon who sleeps here, while Groudon's home (at least in Emerald) is within the [[Magma Hideout]], deep inside of the caverns of [[Mt. Chimney]].
In order to reach it, the {{player}} must use {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Dive}}. Inside, {{m|Strength}} is required for navigation; there are also smashable rocks, which cause {{m|Rock Smash}} to be required for navigation in the Generation III games, but not the Generation VI games.


The player's quest to find the villainous team begins almost immediately after winning their seventh Badge. With a Pokémon that can dive [[underwater]] in their [[party]], they can now navigate the maze of deep trenches on the routes of Hoenn's eastern sea. In the deepest one of them, smack dab in the middle of {{rt|128|Hoenn}}'s pathway, is the entrance to the Seafloor Cavern, where the stolen submarine is parked.
In Pokémon Ruby and Omega Ruby, the cavern is the home of {{p|Groudon}}, who slumbers at its deepest part; in Pokémon Sapphire, Emerald, and Alpha Sapphire, the cavern is the home of {{p|Kyogre}}, who slumbers at its deepest part (in Pokémon Emerald, Groudon slumbers within the [[Team Magma Hideout|Magma Hideout]], deep inside of the caverns of [[Mt. Chimney]]).


After resurfacing inside the cave where the submarine is parked, players must navigate through the complex maze of tunnels to the deepest part, where the legendary Pokémon resides. Here they will also find the boss of the team that has stolen the submarine, [[Archie]] or [[Maxie]], who will attempt to control the legendary Pokémon of his desire using one of the orbs found at the top of [[Mt. Pyre]]. However, the Pokémon will not respond well, and instead will escape, causing severe {{weather|rain}} or {{weather|sun}}light, depending on which it is. In Emerald, both types of weather conditions appear, and they change after player takes enough steps (counting actions like using {{m|Fly}})
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the stolen Submarine Explorer 1 is parked at the bottom of the underwater area underneath the Seafloor Cavern. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the stolen Submarine Explorer 1 is parked at the shore in the entrance chamber of the Seafloor Cavern.


From here, the player must go to [[Sootopolis City]] and into the [[Cave of Origin]], either to catch the powerful legendary Pokémon (Ruby and Sapphire) or to talk to [[Wallace]] to deduce where {{p|Rayquaza}} is located (Emerald).
In the deepest part, [[Maxie]]{{sup/3|Ru}}{{sup/6|OR}} or [[Archie]]{{sup/3|Sa}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|AS}} will attempt to control the super-ancient Pokémon using the orb he stole from [[Mt. Pyre]]. However, the Pokémon does not respond well, and instead will escape, causing [[intense sunlight]]{{sup/3|Ru}}/extremely harsh sunlight{{sup/6|OR}} or [[rain]]{{sup/3|Sa}}/heavy rain{{sup/6|AS}} throughout eastern Hoenn; in Emerald, both rain and intense sunlight appear, and they change after the player takes enough steps (counting actions like using {{m|Fly}}).

Pokémon world locations

The Seafloor Cavern (Japanese: 海底洞窟 Seabed Cavern) is a location in Hoenn, deep beneath the water of Route 128. After surfacing inside the cave, there is a maze of tunnels to the deepest part, where the super-ancient Pokémon resides.

In order to reach it, the player must use Surf and Dive. Inside, Strength is required for navigation; there are also smashable rocks, which cause Rock Smash to be required for navigation in the Generation III games, but not the Generation VI games.

In Pokémon Ruby and Omega Ruby, the cavern is the home of Groudon, who slumbers at its deepest part; in Pokémon Sapphire, Emerald, and Alpha Sapphire, the cavern is the home of Kyogre, who slumbers at its deepest part (in Pokémon Emerald, Groudon slumbers within the Magma Hideout, deep inside of the caverns of Mt. Chimney).

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the stolen Submarine Explorer 1 is parked at the bottom of the underwater area underneath the Seafloor Cavern. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the stolen Submarine Explorer 1 is parked at the shore in the entrance chamber of the Seafloor Cavern.

In the deepest part, MaxieROR or ArchieSEAS will attempt to control the super-ancient Pokémon using the orb he stole from Mt. Pyre. However, the Pokémon does not respond well, and instead will escape, causing intense sunlightR/extremely harsh sunlightOR or rainS/heavy rainAS throughout eastern Hoenn; in Emerald, both rain and intense sunlight appear, and they change after the player takes enough steps (counting actions like using Fly).

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

The Seafloor Cavern served similar purposes in the Ruby & Sapphire arc of Pokémon Adventures to its purpose in the games. Members of both Team Magma and Team Aqua traveled there using Submarine Explorer 1 fitted with a component produced by the Devon Corporation. They aimed to awaken Groudon and Kyogre, respectively. Ruby and Sapphire used a Relicanth to Dive to the cavern.

The Seafloor Cavern was erroneously called the "Cave of Origin" in the Chuang Yi translations of Pokémon Adventures volumes 19, 20, and 21.
