Magellan reached the Philippines for 8 years. From 1410-1418.
Firstly, it wasn't to prove the world was round. The world was already proven to be round before his journey. The initial reason was to find the shortest westwards route to the spice islands (In Indonesia, Maluku Islands now I think) but he had been given information of a passageway, below South America and he had found that travelling through this passage it was possible to continue sailing westwards home. In simple terms, the journey was based around trade and new land discovery
late 15th century.
One of Magellan's ships, the Victoria, had sailed around the world. What Columus had dreamed of was true. Europeans could reach Asia by sailing west. But first they had to sail around the Americas and across the Pacific Ocean in what proved to be a long and dangerous trip.
Ferdinand Magellan traveled to the Magellanic Straits which are islands that he went through on his voyage and his goal was to find a route all the way around the world only by boat which he succeeded in .well, to make a long story short, he traveled around the world.He traveld across the pacific ocean
Magellan's voyage was financed and supplied by the Spanish king Charles I (who later became Emperor Charles V of the Holy Roman Empire). The sponsorship included five ships, pay for the crews and supplies for two years voyage.The reason for the voyage was to discover a new route to the Spice Islands (modern Indonesia and Malaysia) that did not infringe on Portuguese territory.Magellan was killed in battle at Mactan (near Cebu Island, Philippines) on 27 April 1521. He went into this battle on behalf of Rajah Humabon, a local Cebuano leader whom Magellan had befriended and had accepted baptism, against his enemy Lapu-Lapu. Due to the geography of the area, Magellans ships were unable to come close enough to land for their cannon to be employed. Magellan and his men were forced to row a long distance to shore. Upon landing they were attacked by a superior force of Lapu-Lapu's warriors. Magellan, severely wounded, ordered his men to return to the boats. Most of his men escaped but Magellan was killed. The remainder of the voyage was completed with Magellan's navigator, Juan Sebastian Elcano, in command.The story of the voyage was written by the navigator of Magellan's flagship, Antonio Pigafetta.Source(s):See Wiki article on Ferdinand Magellan.

I dont know so dont ask me!!!
Magellan was only in the Philippines for less than a year trying to sail to the spice Islands and converting the Natives to Christianity. His conversion attempts were short lived when the Chief refused to convert and attacked Magellan killing him.
To reach Seafoam Islands, you need to go the path via Pallet Town and Surf the long way, since the Fuchsia path is closed.

The Treaty of Tordesillas, of 1494, gave the route around the tip of Africa to the Portuguese. It didn't take the Spanish long to realize that the Americas were new continents. They were lying across the route to the Spice Islands, in the Pacific, that Columbus had been looking for. Therefore, the Spanish King, Charles I, determined to find a route to the Spice Islands that Portugal did not control. In the meantime, Magellan, who was Portuguese by birth, who had sailed on voyages of discovery and conquest for Portugal, fell out of favor with the Portuguese King. The King absolutely refused to allow him to sail for Portugal. Magellan moved to Sevilla in Spain. There he studied charts of the world and fell in with 2 cartographers. They proposed a project to Charles I to find a second route to the Spice Islands and he hired them.
