Question
how do you get into sootopolis gym in pokemon sapphire

Answer
You need to have the other 7 badges, then go into the cave of origin and beat or catch Kyogre. You can only go into the cave of origin if it's raining heavily everywhere. If it's raining everywhere in your game (not just in battles, but outside too), ignore the rest of this, which just explains how you bring the rain.

You need pokemon in your team that know strength, surf, rock smash, and dive. The dive HM can be received from Steven, in his house up and to the left of the Mossdeep Pokemon Centre. Surf straight down from Mossdeep city until you reach an area of deep water, then use Dive. Keep going down as far as you can, until you reach a dead end. Go up a little from there, and you'll find an entrance to an underwater cave. Go in the underwater cave and undive, and you'll be in the seafloor cavern. Navigating this can be tricky, but there's a great guide at http://www.psypokes.com/rs/seafloor.php

At the end of the cavern, you'll meet the leader of team Aqua, and he'll cause the rain to start. Once this happens, you can just fly to Sootopolis and then go to the cave of origin.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
