Very little was changed in Emerald, in relation to {{2v|Ruby|Sapphire}}, with the exception of the {{Ho|Battle Frontier}} and storyline tweaks to better include the [[Legendary Pokémon|legendaries]] {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Groudon}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}. While there is no evidence to suggest the storyline was changed seriously, there is evidence that the Battle Frontier was changed slightly in various stages of development, however, these changes are minor and strictly relate almost entirely to building placements and static objects, such as fences.

==Kanto and Sevii Islands==
==Kanto and the Sevii Islands==
It is suggested by extras, such as music and map headers, that [[Kanto]] and the [[Sevii Islands]] were originally supposed to be accessible somehow, with full maps stored in Emerald's programming. By hacking with the help of a mapping program, it is clear that the headers for each place in the Kanto region are there, though empty with no maps. Most likely, space limitations on the cart disallowed the programmers from adding the regions, or the areas in Hoenn where you can catch Pokémon from those regions were used as a substitute, because of time limitations.
While the areas are not at all accessible, the names of all Kanto and Sevii Islands locations, as well as Ruby and Sapphire locations, are in Emerald. This can be seen on a Pokémon's status screen, which will indicate the location a Pokémon was caught in Kanto. This may indicate that Kanto was initially to be included in the game.


==New music==
==New music==
Another proof suggesting an addition of Kanto and the Sevii Islands in Emerald is music from FireRed and LeafGreen. Ruby and Sapphire, the base versions of Emerald, had Johto music in their coding, but Emerald clearly has '''new''' Kanto and Sevii Islands music. Kanto and the Sevii Island were most likely scrapped because of limitations, time-wise or for other unknown reasons.
While Ruby and Sapphire, the base versions of Emerald, had upconverted Generation II music in their coding, Emerald contains the music from FireRed and LeafGreen in addition to its own themes.


=="Special Area"==
=="Special Area"==
A new, empty header included with the other empty Kanto and Sevii Islands ones is named "Special Area". There is no actual information on what would have been included in this area, but speculation can show it must have been a new route or section of one of the regions.
A new, empty header included after the empty Kanto and Sevii Islands ones is named "Special Area". There is no actual information on what would have been included in this area.
