He is best known for serving as the Pokémon League Champion in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. This dual-title took place in the Hoenn region and introduced Generation III. Long-time fans of pocket monsters will likely have fond memories of this Game Boy Advance classic from 2003, but newcomers or younger Trainers might have never heard of Steven Stone.
