In Sapphire, the entrance to the hideout is sealed after defeating Tate and Liza, meaning the player canno longer collect any items or battle any Trainers inside.

InAlways Keep Whiscash on You for Emergencies,Maxie andTabitha were allowed inside the Hideout to join their resources with Team Aqua for the time being so that they could reach theSeafloor Cavern safely by combining the heart component Team Aqua had stolen with the submarine stolen byTeam Magma. ManyGrunts from both teams were also taken as backup.
The Hideout reappeared inGorebyss Changes Color andBeedrill Prepares, whenBlaise and Amber met each other there, discussing about the resurfacing of theRed andBlue Orbs, as well as the suspected return of their respective leaders.

Because the entrance is sealed after defeating Tate and Liza in Sapphire, if the player does not obtain theMaster Ball here before that, they cannot get the Master Ball without winning theLilycove Department StorePokémon Lottery Corner or trading one in. This does not happen in Emerald or Alpha Sapphire.
There is a picture of a boy with a shaved head, a girl with black hair, and a Pokémon with three notes attached to its head. "The 7th day of the –th month, –002. With Arc–e and –rachi." The letters at the edge of the picture are faded and hard to read…
Based on the description, the picture likely features youngArchie and Shelly withJirachi. The date described can possibly be the 7th of July, the date ofTanabata, the Japanese star festival which Jirachi is commonly associated with, while the year is likely 2002, the year whenPokémon Ruby and Sapphire were first released. In the Spanish version of the game, the date is slightly altered, showing the year number –003 instead of –002. This is a possible reference to Ruby and Sapphire being released outside of Japan in 2003.
