Description
You play as May or Brendan, traveling through the Hoenn Region to collect all 8 Gym Badges and aim to become the champion.
During your journey, you encounter Team Aqua and Team Magma, who have plans to expand the sea and land. However, they seem a bit less extreme this time. While fighting them, you sense that another group, known as the Delta Division, is also trying to stop them.
Who are the Delta Division, this mysterious team that has reappeared after being disbanded? What are their new goals and who leads them now? And, is it better for the Delta Division to succeed rather than Team Aqua or Team Magma?
