Dungeon Objective
As both Eastern and Western Seafloor ruins have Sea Dew as a reward from the end box, the main reason for doing Western Seafloor Ruins over Eastern Seafloor Ruins is the differing recruits and Mystery Eggs. Kyogre has a chance of dropping its, and with this, the player can combine the Heart Slate with the to summon Kyogre in dungeons. This also gives the player access to Kyogre's Origin Pulse if Origin Pulse is randomly selected to be one of the moves four moves for Kyogre in the dungeon run.

Rules
Three players in a party are needed to fully beat Western Seafloor Ruins.
 * 1) On Floor 21 two players are needed to press the switches at the same time to continue
 * 2) On Floor 40 locate the hidden stairs marked by a unique tile, complete the warp puzzle and defeat the boss.
 * 3) *If the player(s) doesn't enter the Floor 40 hidden stairs, the regular stairs lead to a fake boss and ending room.
 * 4) After completing the warp puzzle and defeating the boss, on Floor 30, 41 and 50 three players are needed to press the switches at the same time to continue.
 * 5) Afterwards the player can regularly go up the floors and face the final boss.

Tips

 * Do not heavily rely on Electric-type moves to face the enemies and more so bosses as Lightning Rod will absorb Electric-type moves.
 * The "fake" stairs on Floor 40 will instantly warp you out without waiting for your party, so be careful.

Trivia

 * Western Seafloor Ruins was the first dungeon to have a Generation 5 starter outside of Harmonic Tower, being Oshawott, before it was moved to Shimmering Seabed.
