Pokémon Emerald guide · Stopping Team Aqua
← All areas in this guide

The Weather Institute on Route 119 has been overtaken by Team Aqua grunts looking for information on ancient Pokémon. You must battle your way through two floors of grunts and defeat Aqua Admin Shelly to rescue the researchers. After clearing the building, you receive a Castform and gain access to a bed where you can heal your team.
