There are only a handful of veteran Pokémon fans who don't recognize Kyogre, the mascot of the Sapphire Version. A mighty Water-type with formidable Special Attack stats, Kyogre was given a new "Primal" form in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire during the sixth generation of the series. It won't show up in this game, in particular, but this game will show you insights into what changed between its release and the release of Alpha Sapphire. Furthermore, according to the item's auction listing on Heritage Auctions' website:

First installment of the third generation of Pokémon, released alongside Pokémon Ruby. Directed by Junichi Masuda and Satoshi Tajiri. Designed by Shigeki Morimoto. Directed by Junichi Masuda. Cover art by Ken Sugimori.
