3rd Gen 'One-Time' Visit Areas

    In my RSE/FRLG games, I wish to, when I complete them again, search in all the areas for hidden items, with help from the good old Itemfinder.

    Basically, I want to know the areas which arent accessable ever again after certain points in the game.

    All I know at the moment are:

    The Van at the very beginning of the game - Once you exit the vehicle you cant get back in, then it disappears when you are next outside (Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald)
    Mirage Tower - Disappears when you pick Claw/Root Fossil (Emerald)
    POSSIBLITY BUT NEED CONFIRMATION - Aqua/Magma Hideouts - Un-enterable when you defeat the leader then do something else which I dont know of - I THINK (Ruby (Magma), Sapphire (Aqua), Emerald (Both))

    I dont know any in FireRed and LeafGreen.

    Does anyone know of any other areas which are unavailable? Thanks alot.

    In Emerald you can enter both hideouts whenever you want.

    In fire red? The SS. Anne- Goes when you get Cut (unless you lose in the ship, or get cut by trading a pokémon with it)

    I've tested this by losing in the ship and going back much later in the game. Maybe it's just because I came back after I got the passes for the Sevi Islands, but when I tried, the SS Anne was gone.

    So, perhaps up until a point, you can get to it for a second time, but I'm not entirely sure it leaves just when you step off the ship.
