Now this one's for all those who have played Emerald. We all know the story, that there once waged a battle between Kyogre and Groudon in order to dominate the Earth. We also know the end that Rayquaza came to stop this battle (if he hadn't we wouldn't be here voting and posting! lol) Now my question is who would've won this battle if Rayquaza hadn't stopped them, who would've won? PS - Basically, Kyogre is of the water type so he has an advantage over the ground typed Groudon. But Groudon has a secret weapon too, Solarbeam! (its a level up move for him ,so a wild Groudon will learn Solarbeam) and combine that with his ability Drought (continuous sunnyday) he came rapidly fire Solarbeams! So that makes it a very tough fight.

I think Kyogre would've won coz he's got the water type STAB (same type attack bonus) against a Groudon of the ground type. Besides, Kyogre's Special Attack is very high comapered to the sp.def of Groudon!

That makes Kyogre the winner!

Besides, Kyogre was winning after all...cause we can still see the effects, there's 71% of water compared to just 29% of land, on the surface of the Earth! ( xD )

I think Kyogre will win. Based on the scene in Pokemon Emerald, Kyogre would've surely won if Rayquaza didn't arrive. Since they were battling in the middle of the water at Sootopolis City and Kyogre was in the water while Groudon was standing in a piece of land.

Actually, it totally depends on whose ability came second. If Drizzle came after Drought, then Kyogre would win since it can OHKO Groudon with a STAB Surf. If Drought came after Drizzle, the attack power of Water moves are cut in half and then it would come down to which Pokemon is faster. Since they have the same base Spd of 90, it is basically a coin toss. If Groudon attacks first, it wins since its STAB Earthquake (which does more damage than Solarbeam) would 2HKO Kyogre.

Groudon would obviously evaporate Kyogre's water and then take the battle to soil. Groudon uses its ARMS to make some Kyogre kabobs.

EDIT: Sootopolis is a CRATER. Underneath the pool is a bunch of GROUND. Groudon is the one with the real field advantage here.

i actually agree with this. cause it would come down to who came second. so in order for this to be really determined...Rayquaza needs to sit somewhere on the side lines and have his air lock ability active.

I think it's foolish to think of it from a game point of view. Still, Kyogre would dominate due to its type advantage.

I disagree with the solarbeam idea, as Groudon has garbage sp.atk and Kyogre has (in this case) blissey-like sp.def.

Seeing as you are forced to wake up Groudon before even seeing aqua steal the submarine, one could try to assume that kyogre came into battle second, so Kyogre would have won probably... Unless the fight between the 2 is just like a Wobbuffet match with both having leftovers :P

I just think that kyogre would have won as he has huge sp attk to defeat groudon AND huge sp def to counter Groudon's so called secret weapon Solarbeam. Groudon also stands a chance if he might have used fissure and it would have hit kyogre.
