When the city of Rustboro was undergoing expansion, the Cutter had his Pokémon use Cut to help clear the land of trees. He will give the player HM01 (Cut). According to May/Brendan, he has a younger brother in Mauville City, which is the person that gives out HM06 (Rock Smash).
Elyssa's house
Elyssa's House is located next to the Gym in Rustboro City. By talking to Elyssa, the player is given the option to make an in-game trade. In Ruby and Sapphire, Elyssa wants a Slakoth, and will trade a Makuhita named Makit in exchange. Makit is holding an X Attack. The new Pokémon's level will match that of the Pokémon the player traded.

POKéMON TRAINER'S SCHOOL
"We'll teach you anything about
POKéMON!"
Inside are five students and a teacher, who gives the player the Quick Claw. Talking to the students also reveals helpful information. Behind the teacher is the blackboard with the list of status conditions (Poison, Burn, Freeze, Paralysis, and Sleep) that may affect Pokémon in a battle. In the anime, Roxanne, the local Gym Leader, runs the school.
Walda's house
In Pokémon Emerald, a sad young girl named Walda lives between the Pokémon Center and the Devon Corporation building. If the proper 'funny' word is given to her caretaker, she will reward the player with a new wallpaper for the Pokémon Storage System.

The Gym Leader is Roxanne, who specializes in Rock-type Pokémon. The Stone Badge is awarded for defeating Roxanne. The Gym is a maze; there are two paths, one path which battles the Gym Trainers, while the other path lets the players go through without battling.
In the anime, Rustboro Gym appears as a giant boulder in A Winner by a Nosepass!.
Role

After listening to Zinnia's grandmother at Meteor Falls, Steven heads to the Devon Corporation building in Rustboro City. When the player arrives there, a scientist runs out the front door, running away from a Team Aqua Grunt. That grunt then challenges the player, followed by a second and third grunt, all of whom run away after their own defeat. After defeating the third grunt, the scientist reveals that the device to control the Link Cable was stolen by CourtneyOR/MattAS and that Steven has headed off to the Mossdeep Space Center.

In the anime
In the anime, Rustboro City appeared in the episodes Gonna Rule The School! to On a Wingull and a Prayer!. Ash and his friends mainly traveled to Rustboro for Ash's first Hoenn Gym battle, which happened in The Winner By a Nosepass, but while there, they also visited the lookout tower, the Pokémon Trainer's School and the Devon Corporation.
In On a Wingull and a Prayer! they went to the desolate harbor of Rustboro City and met up with Mr. Briney, who brought them to Dewford Town by boat.
Rustboro City also has a Contest Hall on its outskirts, which appeared in All Things Bright and Beautifly!.
Rustboro City was mentioned in Mega Evolution Special II where Lysandre assigned Alain to go there.

Trivia
- As Hoenn coincides with Kyushu, Rustboro coincides approximately with Fukuoka and Kitakyushu.
- Rustboro City is very similar to Saffron City of Kanto and Jubilife City of Sinnoh. All three cities are home to their region's corporate giants.
- It is also similar to Pewter City of Kanto and Goldenrod City of Johto. Their geographic locations to their regions are very remarkably similar, as well as being only accessible through a forest during the beginning of the games. Rustboro is more like Pewter in that both cities are the second city visited with a Gym, but first to be beaten by the player. Both Pewter and Rustboro's Gyms specialize in Rock-type Pokémon, and play a role in the player obtaining Fossil Pokémon.
- In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, there is an Easter egg findable in Rustboro City, involving the Ace Trainer who gives the player a Float Stone. After giving it to the player, he will explain its effect of halving the holder's weight. If the player then leaves and re-enters the floor, the Ace Trainer has turned into a Hiker, who tells that he has put on a lot of weight recently for some reason.
