By definition. A sedimentary rock is formed from sediments, chemical, organic, or clastic. A metamorphic rock has undergone a change in mineral alignment or mineral composition due to heat and/or pressure. An igneous rock forms from solidification of magma via cooling.

How do the igneous rocks granite and diorite form?

They form in essentially the same way, the only real difference being in composition. They form as magma slowly cools deep underground, allowing large crystals to form. Granite forms from magma that is rich in silica, sodium, and potassium. Diorite forms from magma that has somewhat less silica and more iron, calcium, and magnesium.

That depends on your version... In Ruby, it's in a cave to the East (right) of Lilycove City, which you can only access after confronting Team Magma at Mt. Pyre. In Emerald, the Team Magma Hideout is on the Jagged pass between Lavaridge City and the summit of Mt. Chimney. The entrance will not appear until you confront Team Aqua and Team Magma at Mt. Pyre, where Mt. Pyre's matron will give you the Magma Emblem, telling you that a member of Team Magma dropped it and that it must be a key of some kind.
