The '''Sealed Chamber''' (Japanese: '''おふれのせきしつ''' ''Stone Chamber of the Proclamation'') is a location in [[Hoenn]]. It can be reached by diving on {{rt|134|Hoenn}}. It is not a common place to visit, as it is well hidden under the water and through the currents on Route 134. Legends are told about the Sealed Chamber, but only few people from [[Pacifidlog Town]] know its true existence. It must be visited to unlock the caves that hold the [[Legendary golems|three Regi]] Pokémon.

==Braille code==
==Geography==
The first room contains ten mounds of earth, marked with braille that lists the alphabet. The braille on the door says to use {{m|Dig}}. This opens an entrance to the second room.
===Underwater===
Underwater there is a message against a rock formation telling the {{player}} to go up.


The chamber's history is shrouded in mystery. Not much is known about it though the translation of the [[braille]] in the second room is as follows:
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, there is no visible indication of where to go up; the player can go up anywhere, although going up anywhere but in front of the Braille will take them back to Route 134. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, there is a clear area with light filtering down to surface from, and it is not possible to surface from anywhere else.

===Translation===
This underwater path is considered part of {{rt|134|Hoenn}}.

===First chamber===
The first room contains ten mounds of earth, marked with braille that lists the alphabet. The braille on the door says to use {{m|Dig}}. This opens an entrance to the second room, if performed while standing near the door.
 
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, after using Dig to create the door it is still possible to read the Braille to the sides of the door. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, it is no longer possible to read this Braille after the door is created.

===Second chamber===
Reading the inscription on the back wall in the second room with {{p|Relicanth}} at the top of the [[party]] and {{p|Wailord}} at the bottom of the party causes an earthquake to occur that opens the doors of the [[Desert Ruins]], [[Island Cave]], and [[Ancient Tomb]]. Note that the party positions must be reversed in {{game|Emerald}}.

===Rumors===
==Braille interpretations==
[[File:SealedChamber1.png|frame|right|Inside Sealed Chamber]]
{{fan speculation|section}}
It is believed by some that the "We feared it." section refers to {{p|Regigigas}}, as opposed to {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}, as it wouldn't make sense to refer to [[Legendary golems|three Pokémon]] as an "it".
Some people believe that the "We feared it." section refers to {{p|Regigigas}}, as opposed to {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}. This interpretation stems from the English translation's use of the word ''it''. No actual subject, either plural or singular, was indicated in Japanese.


The significance of why Wailord and Relicanth are needed might have something to do with the general theme of the Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald games; the relationship between land and the sea. Relicanth is based on the {{wp|coelacanth}}, a creature that is considered to be closely related to the ancestors of all land-living vertebrates. Wailord is based on the {{wp|whale}}, a creature whose ancestors once lived on land but have since evolved to live in the ocean.

==In the manga==
==Pokémon==
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], the inscription in the chamber is instead on a damaged stone tablet. The letter that {{adv|Sapphire}} delivered to {{Steven}} from [[President Stone]] contained a reconstruction of the damaged paragraph. With the help of Sapphire, the {{DL|Elite Four|Hoenn Elite Four|Elite Four}} unseal the Desert Ruins, Island Cave and Ancient Tomb. This is the backup plan the Stones had made in the case that they were unable to destroy the [[Seafloor Cavern]] before [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] could get to {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], the inscription in the chamber is instead on a damaged stone tablet, which first appeared in ''[[PS245|Bravo, Vibrava]]'', under the possession of the [[blind boy]], whom it had been entrusted to by {{Steven}}. In ''[[PS252|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV]]'', [[Phoebe]] retrieved the tablet after the blind boy had been unable to figure out the damaged part and brought it back to Steven.
In ''[[PS253|A Royal Rumble with Regirock, Regice and Registeel I]]'', the [[letter]] that {{adv|Sapphire}} delivered to Steven from [[Mr. Stone]] was revealed to contain a reconstruction of the damaged paragraph. With the help of Sapphire, Steven and the [[Elite Four]] unsealed the [[Desert Ruins]], [[Island Cave]], and [[Ancient Tomb]], after which the stone tablet broke to pieces, having served its purpose.
The Elite Four believed that the "it" in the phrase "We feared it" referred to the risk of trying to control a Pokémon that is too powerful.

Pokémon world locations

The Sealed Chamber (Japanese: おふれの石室 Stone Chamber of the Proclamation) is a location in Hoenn. It can be reached by diving on Route 134. It is not a common place to visit, as it is well hidden under the water and through the currents on Route 134. Legends are told about the Sealed Chamber, but only few people from Pacifidlog Town know its true existence. It must be visited to unlock the caves that hold the legendary giants.

Geography

Underwater

Underwater there is a message against a rock formation telling the player to go up.

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, there is no visible indication of where to go up; the player can go up anywhere, although going up anywhere but in front of the Braille will take them back to Route 134. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, there is a clear area with light filtering down to surface from, and it is not possible to surface from anywhere else.

This underwater path is considered part of Route 134.

Message

Games English Japanese Japanese (normal orthography) Japanese (translation)
RSEORAS GO UP HERE. ここで あがれ ここで上がれ Go up here.

First chamber

The first room contains ten mounds of earth, marked with braille that lists the alphabet. The braille on the door says to use Dig. This opens an entrance to the second room, if performed while standing near the door.

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, after using Dig to create the door it is still possible to read the Braille to the sides of the door. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, it is no longer possible to read this Braille after the door is created.

Back wall

Games English Japanese Japanese (normal orthography) Japanese (translation)
RSEORAS DIG HERE. ここで
あなを ほれ
ここで
穴を掘れ
Dig a hole here.

Mounds

The mounds of braille are read from left to right, starting at the top left mound.

Second chamber

Reading the inscription on the back wall in the second room with Relicanth at the top of the party and Wailord at the bottom of the party causes an earthquake to occur that opens the doors of the Desert Ruins, Island Cave, and Ancient Tomb. Note that the party positions must be reversed in Pokémon Emerald.

Braille interpretations

175Togepi.png This section contains fan speculation.
There is no solid evidence for or against some parts of this article.

Some people believe that the "We feared it." section refers to Regigigas, as opposed to Regirock, Regice, and Registeel. This interpretation stems from the English translation's use of the word it. No actual subject, either plural or singular, was indicated in Japanese.

The significance of why Wailord and Relicanth are needed might have something to do with the general theme of the Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald games; the relationship between land and the sea. Relicanth is based on the coelacanth, a creature that is considered to be closely related to the ancestors of all land-living vertebrates.

The stone tablet in Pokémon Adventures

Pokémon Adventures

Ruby & Sapphire arc

In Pokémon Adventures, the inscription in the chamber is instead on a damaged stone tablet, which first appeared in Bravo, Vibrava, under the possession of the blind boy, whom it had been entrusted to by Steven. In The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV, Phoebe retrieved the tablet after the blind boy had been unable to figure out the damaged part and brought it back to Steven.

In A Royal Rumble with Regirock, Regice and Registeel I, the letter that Sapphire delivered to Steven from Mr. Stone was revealed to contain a reconstruction of the damaged paragraph. With the help of Sapphire, Steven and the Elite Four unsealed the Desert Ruins, Island Cave, and Ancient Tomb, after which the stone tablet broke to pieces, having served its purpose.

The Elite Four believed that the "it" in the phrase "We feared it" referred to the risk of trying to control a Pokémon that is too powerful.

Emerald arc

In Never Spritz a Knotty Sudowoodo, Scott was revealed to have collected the shattered remains of the stone tablet and reassembled it, allowing Brandon to use it to locate and catch the legendary giants for use at the Battle Frontier.
