I guess i should return to Nagasaki to stop Maxie from stealing the submarine. I head down Mt. Pyre and then down route 123, where i stole a Gyaradosite from a Poochyena. When i arrive in Mauville, i remember that i can just use an HM slave to fly between cities, so i do that. I head to the docks for the grand unveiling of the submarine. Captain Stern had just finished an interview when i arrive, and he then picks me out of the crowd to tell me how his sub can be used to find the super-ancient pokemon on route 128. We then hear a voice from inside the shipyard, claiming that team magma is stealing the submarine. Inside, we see Homura and Maxie steal the ship, claiming they're bringing it to their base in Lilycove. A few magma grunts battle me so i can't immediately give chase, but i dispatch them with ease.
Stern gives me a lift in his boat to the Lilycove harbor, so i guess i should now search this city for the magma base. As i walk up the stairs to the northern part of the city, Brendan approaches me; he had apparently been doing shopping in the department store here. He challenges me a battle, which i totally have time for. He leads with Swellow and i lead with Kaboom. One discharge takes him out, so next is Swampert. I switch to Zangief and take him out with three slashes. Next is Breloom, so i switch to Benekiptus. I mega evolve and take it out with a blaze kick, though i do end up poisoned. Last is Magcargo, so i send Sashimi out and one-shot it. After this battle, Brendan concludes that he's just not cut out to be a trainer, and says he'll return to Littleroot Town to help his dad with research.
with that out of the way, i continue my search for the base. Along the way, i fish up Rommel the Tentacool. I end up finding a big cave just off the coast, so i go in to investigate. I also catch Dory the Magikarp while i'm here. Yup, this looks like the base. This place has a bunch of teleporter pads similar to the Silph Co building in Kanto. I find a Master Ball while exploring this base, which will be very useful later on. I eventually make it through to Magma Admin Kagari, who is guarding the sub. She sends out her Camerupt and i send out Sashimi. I mega evolve and OHKO, but not in time to prevent the submarine from getting away. I guess i'll now have to search for Maxie in the vast sea beyond Lilycove. Blegh, too much water. 7.8/10.
So i head out into the great sea. I catch Poseidon the Tentacruel on route 124. I then hit land in Mossedeep City, where a guy gives me his Super Rod. I immediately use it to fish up a Wailmer, which i name Werner. It is at this point that i remember a cave i hadn't yet explored on route 120. So i head to the Scorched Slab and fish up Edo Jishin the Barboach. To anyone who knows me, it should come as no surprise that i let it onto my team immediately. Sorry Zangief, you performed admirably, but Edo Jishin gives ground coverage and evolves into my favorite pokemon.
I think i'll call it a day for now.

i thought i'd only get one or two megas at most throughout the game, but now i have 3 in my active party. crazy how these things turn out.
