I've done both.
I caught all possible Pok?mon in the Ruby version just using standard Pok?balls. (except the safari ones)
I also made a secret base down in Route 121 in the tree just southeast of the weather institute. (it's next to a waterfall >_<) I've made a Pikachu and Pichu Bros. shrine in it!
