    You'll need to expand the Pokédex!

    For Emerald, follow this tutorial:
    For FireRed

    You could also use karatekid552's Gen 3 ROM Hacking Suite to do it for you, available here

    Expanding the dex requires malloc and extra ram space, which Ruby cannot do without a major rewrite of the engine and every instance of connecting to it.

    If you do happen to include extra slots, it works by overwriting other areas of save space and is a total corruption process. You will get extra Pokémon, but at the cost of the game. The limit you can add WITH corruption is still extremely low. Not to mention things that won't be able to be expanded such as footprints due to limiters in the ASM coding.

    You're telling me Ruby doesn't have enough RAM space to repoint the caught/seen data? lol.

    You just need to repoint it into a good chunk of free RAM space, and then write a save block hack. FireRed had like 8KB of free space, I'm sure Ruby has 800 or so bytes lying around. Then after you've repointed it, you have some nice free space to use in RAM for your other things :D

    Oh, it does. I assure you. I have done this. Press CTRL + G. And then input the offsets (152E98), it will show you.

    So wait when chaos tells me to put [XX XX XX 08] are those for the symbols on the rightside, also what does he mean by pointer?

    Read this part:
    For XX XX XX 08, it's the offset you put the save block routine +0x1.

    Where did you input the save block hack routine? Reverse it and 1. (I hope I'm right with the reverse thingy).
