Sealed Chamber

The Sealed Chamber (Japanese: おふれの Stone Chamber of the Proclamation) is a location in Hoenn. It can be reached by diving on . It is not a common place to visit, as it is well hidden under the water and through the currents on Route 134. Legends are told about the Sealed Chamber, but only few people from Pacifidlog Town know its true existence. It must be visited to unlock the caves that hold the legendary giants.

===Braille interpretations===
Some people believe that the "We feared it." section refers to , as opposed to , , and . This interpretation stems from the English translation's use of the word it. No actual subject, either plural or singular, was indicated in Japanese.
The significance of why Wailord and Relicanth are needed might have something to do with a general theme of the Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald games: the relationship between land and the sea. Relicanth is based on the , a creature that is considered to be closely related to the ancestors of all land-living vertebrates. Wailord is based on the , a creature whose ancestors once lived on land but have since evolved to live in the ocean.

===Pokémon Adventures===
========
In Pokémon Adventures, the inscription in the chamber is instead on a damaged stone tablet, which first appeared in Bravo, Vibrava, under the possession of the blind boy, whom it had been entrusted to by . In The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV, Phoebe retrieved the tablet after the blind boy had been unable to figure out the damaged part and brought it back to Steven.
In A Royal Rumble with Regirock, Regice and Registeel I, the letter that delivered to Steven from Mr. Stone was revealed to contain a reconstruction of the damaged paragraph. With the help of Sapphire, Steven and the Elite Four unsealed the Desert Ruins, Island Cave, and Ancient Tomb, after which the stone tablet broke to pieces, having served its purpose.
The Elite Four believed that the "it" in the phrase "We feared it" referred to the risk of trying to control a Pokémon that is too powerful.
========
In Never Spritz a Knotty Sudowoodo, Scott was revealed to have collected the shattered remains of the stone tablet and reassembled it, allowing Brandon to use it to locate and the for use at the .
==Trivia==
* In Generation III, the rumble that is heard immediately before the legendary giants are unsealed is identical to the sound of the moving truck heard at the start of the 's adventure.
