+# Emerald: Matt missing in Aqua Hideout (#2748)
+
+## Reproduced cause
+
+[Issue #2748](https://github.com/bryanthaboi/gen1recomp/issues/2748) reports
+Matt missing and uninteractable in Aqua Hideout B2F on Android v3.60. The
+maintainer's comment asks whether Tate and Liza were defeated. No reporter
+save is attached, so this is a reproduced cause, not confirmation of the
+reporter's exact flag state.
+
+The canonical Emerald scripts have an ordering dependency:
+
+- `MossdeepCity_Gym_EventScript_TateAndLizaDefeated` sets both
+  `FLAG_BADGE07_GET` (0x86D) and `FLAG_HIDE_AQUA_HIDEOUT_GRUNTS` (0x39C).
+- Aqua Hideout B2F's Matt template (local ID 1, graphics 117, tile 23,19)
+  uses that same hide flag. The other hideout grunts share it.
+- Matt's trainer battle (trainer 30, continuation type 2) runs
+  `AquaHideout_B2F_EventScript_SubmarineEscape` on victory. This removes the
+  submarine (local ID 4) and sets
+  `FLAG_TEAM_AQUA_ESCAPED_IN_SUBMARINE` (0x70).
+- The gym script does not set the escape flag. Completing the gym first
+  therefore hides Matt while his escape event is still pending. On the next
+  hideout visit, Matt is absent from both `Objects.forDraw()` and
+  `Objects.at()`, so field interaction cannot start his battle.
+
+A fresh hideout template with the flag clear is drawable and interactable;
+this reproducer did not require broken graphics extraction or an Android
+renderer defect. It reproduces a sequence break regardless of how the
+player obtained early access to Mossdeep. It does not establish how the
+reporter reached that state or attribute it to either previously used mod.
+
+## Recovery boundary
+
+`src/core/game3/profiles/emerald_rules.lua` implements `repairSaveState`
+through the existing edition-specific lifecycle:
+
+- `Schema.fromSaveTable` repairs decoded Lua sessions.
+- `Flags.loadInto` repairs script-side saved flag stores.
+- `Flags.onMapLoad` repairs map-entry/continue stores before objects spawn.
+
+Only when the Mind Badge is earned, the shared hideout hide flag is
+synchronized with the submarine-escape flag. If escape is pending, NPCs
+remain available; once escape is complete, normal late-story hiding resumes
+on map entry/load. Normal story ordering has already completed escape when
+the badge is earned, so its hide behavior is unchanged.
+
+The recovery does not award a badge, mark Matt defeated, set the escape
+flag, or rewrite imported ROM scripts. A player still needs to fight Matt
+and finish his continuation. Without the Mind Badge, explicit hide flags
+are left alone. Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed and LeafGreen do not use this rule.
+
+This is not a general recovery for interrupted win continuations, arbitrary
+object-removal snapshots, or unrelated mod-written flags.
+
+## Regression
+
+`tests/emerald_matt_2748_test.lua` runs a ROM-free canonical fixture by
+default and is registered in `tests/quick.list`. With
+`POKEPORT_EMERALD_CACHE` set, it validates the actual imported template and
+gym flag writes, then executes the full imported Matt/escape scripts:
+
+```sh
+luajit tests/emerald_matt_2748_test.lua
+POKEPORT_EMERALD_CACHE=/path/to/emerald luajit tests/emerald_matt_2748_test.lua
+```
+
+Coverage includes fresh and early-gym visits, legacy Lua/script-side saves,
+object snapshots, A-button interaction through `Field.interact`, win/loss
+callbacks, submarine local-ID resolution, all four badge/escape ordering
+states, repeated entry, unrelated flags/vars, alternate numeric key
+encodings, and other-edition routing.
+
+Messages and battle/movement completion are headless adapters. Tests prove
+VM continuation and lifecycle behavior, not battle simulation, actual
+sprite pixels, or execution on an Android device. No benchmarks are used.
