Aside from the introduction of a vibrant region along with the Pokémon species that originally hail from the region, something else the Hoenn region is known for (and perhaps an easily forgettable one) is the Weather Institute. The institution is designated for the study of the weather, which explains why both Team Aqua and Team Magma wanted to control it for their respective interests. These interests aside, the institution would certainly have vested interests of its own, at least with consideration of its real-world analogues.
Some of those interests might just be related to the ocean and sky, which are definitely evocative of their Legendary Pokémon denizens, as Kyogre and Rayquaza. The former also further explains the targeting by Team Aqua for the interests of control of that Pokémon and its respective environment. Meanwhile, the institution will likely work with sky factors and therefore Rayquaza (albeit indirectly) with the simple interests of ascertaining the workings of that environment - with the resulting work for both environments being the weather.
For the "earthly" aspect involving Groudon, the institution might have a more hands-off role and a little less to do with "aerial weather", but that might be exactly what Team Magma was looking for when they went in for the institution. Still, making sense of ways to increase the sun's output and having Groudon and the "underground weather" jive with that would be a priority interest, where the latter might be a more realistic concern, at least for the institutions that actually do deal with just that.
It's not hard to see that the dwellers of the land, sea, and sky as mentioned above are in some ways affected by the weather, and Hoenn's Weather Institute becomes an easy target for those with the interests to summon and deal with these beasts. More realistically (and practically), the Weather Institute might have more common interests for all, as indicated by the above in light of what the real-world versions do. That may just be the thing to not be forgotten, even if the Institute faces this predicament more easily.
