if the battery is what makes you doubt, the picture above has the battery de-soldered to show the chip.

The label probably got ruined by water or moisture.

Yeah, your cart is legit. Usually the fake ones have either no battery, or a battery without a colored rim around it, which yours has.
Bruh... you have to look at the chips, not the condition....
looks legit to me, there are no hints on the board that would indicate a bootleg, the front of the label also seems to be showing the "imprinted" numbers that bootlegs usually do not have.
EDIT: While batteries are not very common in GBA games (as most games did use eeprom or flash savegame storage), Pokemon Ruby and Saphire do contain a battery for the real time clock in the card.
Ruby/Saphire/Emerald: Flash Storage with a battery for the RTC
Fire Red/Leaf Green: No battery at all, Games don't contain an RTC and use flash storage.

My wife's doctor prescribed her a ointment for neck and knee pain, that cost $30. We just read the ingredients, and active ingredient is CBD, found exact ingredients in another off brand ointment online, for only $8. Our healthcare system at its finest. -
