Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Announced

Pokémon has just announced that Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire will be released in November 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS. Not much more is known. Below is what the official site posted in their announcement:

Announcing Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems! Prepare for an epic adventure exploring a world filled with Pokémon!

Pokémon fans first enjoyed Pokémon Ruby Version and Pokémon Sapphire Version when it launched in 2003 for the Game Boy Advance. Now, a whole new generation of Pokémon fans will experience the dramatic storyline that unfolds in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire.

Look forward to Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire when the games launch worldwide in November 2014!

These games will be released in November world wide as confirmed by the Japanese announcement. The Japanese mini-site is kind of cool, by the way.

<3 PJ

ps- Personally I cannot be more excited about these games. I don’t know what a heart attack feels like, but I think I had one when I saw these announced.

  2. (puts on martin luther king voice)… Can we all hold hands and never speak ill of each other again? Cause today is a new day Trainers… YES it is.. For us pokejunglians and the world have been granted these new games. For i am crying, a new man, a new poketrainer (rambles on)..

    kk let me shut up… im seriously crying

  3. I’m super curious about the whole “new world” bit, as a lot of the marketing for the other remakes we’ve had has been along the lines of “revisiting” something we’ve already seen.

    Super excited nonetheless!!

    • My name is johnson felix really want to share my testimony on how i became an Illuminati member, through my friend. i was moving with my friend for more than 10 years and he have been getting rich everyday and even giving me money but he never told me the secret of his success until a day i was frustrated to let him know that he should help me also that was when he open up to me and tell me that he was a member of the Illuminati that he have been in the court for more than 10 years that his riches and protection came from this court.so i told him to let me be into the court but it not an easy task to be a member but i was finally initiated into the devil church of the Illuminati and i was confirm in there church. after a month of being a member of Illuminati i got promotion that same month in my working place and within a year i was promoted thrice in my working place to the extend of being a managing Director i never know how to thank this church of Illuminati and today am rich as my friend also, and also the one that surprise me most was that i got an accident with my new car and the car was right off but i still survive the accident and nothing happen to me i really thank you people Illuminati. so i just want to share to the world that this is real and it have help me and work for me so if you want to become a member i can lead you into the court of richness and you will never be poor again, know that it only a member in the Illuminati that can initiate you into the church of illumination they do not contact directly because they are fake Illuminati all over the world, this is my email [email protected] they will tell you how to join,or call +2347059014517

  13. So guys, OR ot AS? Personally, Alpha cuz… Blue. I like blue. Aaand are those an O and an A on Groudon and Kyogre’s hands/fins? A bit farfetched but yeah

    Reply
  14. HAH!! And all the naysayers were like “smealum would’ve discovered new mega stones if they were coming” WRONG! I knew they would do a patch update to XY to make them compatible with future 6th gen mega stones. HECK YES. Put that in your pipe and shmoke it.

    Argh I can’t wait for diving in 3D, there is like so much things to discuss lol

  15. Oh my freaking god guys. We were JUST talking about this in the chat yesterday. I thought it was some sick month late april fools joke, waiting for PJ to say “APRIL FOOLS” Nope. All I want to say is that you were TOTALLY right themightywyvern!!

    Reply
  16. I hope they improve the graphics engine. Sometimes the X/Y battle scenes can be a bit ‘jittery.’

    Back to Hoenn!
    Will they Mega the starters? Another split mega like Mewtwo and Char? Obtain other region starter like X/Y? Add a Fairy gym? Give us back Dive? New battle mechanic?

    P.S.
    I want to see the Emerald scene where Rayquaza comes down from the sky to fight Kyogre and Groudon in 3D!!!!! Make that happen!!!

    Reply
    • My guesses are defo mega sceptile and swampert, the respective mega stone given relatively close to the start of the game eg mauwile city or dewford city ( by Steven stone )

      Gyms will stay the same. Dive will return will gorgeous new visuals. And will play a big role in the late game.

      We will get an epic 3d rayquaza decent scene. Groudon and kyogre will also look gorgeous.

      Reply
  17. These are definitely mega Kyogre and Groudon. It all makes sense, considering that they appeared along with rayquaza on that trademark list from before X and y.

    Reply
  18. What do you think about my theory?These games could be both prequel and sequel XD Alpha sapphire(prequel) and omega ruby( sequel)!Like the beginning(alpha) and the ending(omega) Will be interesting

    Reply
    • Interesting concept! One game is set three years after the other and you see the differences the first character brought to the region.

      Reply
      • They can be different! In x and y the both games stories were identical -.- If I buy them both I can play 2 different stories

  19. I always choose Fire Starters (Exception for Chespin <3)

      • Latias…..
        I spent days scouring the Hoenn Region ever since I came across her on the open sea….like a beautiful maiden
        I spent days, weeks even a month trying to find the elusive Legendary but each time i got a little bit closer

        But one day I caught her and we’ve been together ever since….
        She and I went everywhere together and battled fiercely

        Reply
  21. Calling it now mega swampert will be same typing and even more of a bulky quadruped pokemon. Sceptile will stay bipedal and will gain additional dragon dark typing if its not one of these it will stay the same, mono grass.

  31. But we must pledge to analyze every drop on info nectar
    But what if there’s a Volcanic realm and a Deep Abyssal Realm where Groudon and Kyogre originated from?

    Reply
  32. praise goomy!! waking up to this news is making for a great morning! I have to admit though, i wasn’t expecting the names…what do you guys think they could mean?

    Reply
    • Its meaning is found in the fact that alpha (Α) and omega (Ω) are respectively the first and last letters of the Classical (Ionic) Greek alphabet. This would be similar to referring to someone in English as the “A and Z”. Thus, twice when the title appears it is further clarified with the additional title “the beginning and the end” (Revelation 21:6, 22:13).

    Reply
  38. Ok.. Kyogre and Groudon created the sea and land, right? Which is pretty much the creation of earth.. Which sort of fits with X and Y’s life and death (beginning and end) theme

    Reply
  39. OMFG YOU GUYS I FIGURED IT OUT.

    Groudon And Kyogre are the only pokemon that its stated their known for destroying the Ecosystem . Zygarde monitors the ecosystem. 0_0

    BUT WAIT!! Alpha (Α) and Omega (Ω) are the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet. This referring to someone in English as the “A and Z”. Thus, twice when the title appears it is further clarified with the additional title “the beginning and the end”

    Basically Pokemon A and Z, like the trainer/king AZ in Kalos 0_0

    ALSO, Zygarde learns Thousand Waves which sounds like it gets when Kyogre is flooding, Thousand Arrows when Drought happening??? Perhaps.

    Reply
      • nope. the trailer says “Whole New World”. I think one game is going to be a prequel, and one is going to be a sequel. “Beginning/End”. Both games will probably have drastic changes and be continuations of XY

        Reply
    • Love the theory, but doesn’t Rayquaza play the role of the environmental savior in Hoenn? It descends from the sky to end the fight and restore balance. But I could see where Zygarde might fit. An event after beating the champion would trigger Zygarde awakening and upon seeing the damage that has been done, unleashes its rage upon the Humans which it thinks are responsible (well, kinda, yeah) for ruining the land

      Reply
      • I hate waiting -.- There should be an announcement of some pokemon games right before they release them.

        Reply
        • It would be great if they just surprised us one day and say oh btw the new pokemon game is coming out tomorrow. But unfortunately the waiting game is how they make their money with all of the hype

          Reply
  40. OMFG What if hoenn is based on hawaii and that strange item(that looks like a tiki for me) is a new pokemon?

    Reply
  41. Alpha and Omega could also symbolize the geograpgical structure of Hoenn or your journey to the elite 4.. You begin on land and end at that big waterfall in Evergrande city.. Really unlikely tho haha

    Reply
  42. On a different note:
    Weird that they give us Hoenn before Volcanion & Hoopa. Are they supposed to make an appearance there? SHIT! Just realized Volcanion is Fire/Water, if you think hard enough you can fit in somewhere in the Groudon-Kyogre mix up! Hype!

  43. “Released in November 2014” it’s not actually that far away considering x and y was a year away for us

    -Why now and out of the blue
    -why

  45. I’m super hyped for the new games, but the use of Alpha and Omega worries me a little. It makes it seem like its going to be the last installment of the games. I’m sure it won’t be, but its just something to think about.

    Reply
  46. I’m also happy that the games are being released at the same time again. It’s going to be funny hearing the leaks and reveals of people who get the games early LOL. I still remember that Smoker guy.

      • I only fight against calling them megas because thats just too easy and predictable

        I mean I love Groudon and i only want him to be the Greatest Ground Type ever but I feel that they can do something better and more original

        Reply
        • Yup. It’s going to suck if they overplay the Mega card without adding something new to the playing field. I want new forms, new mechanics & by God new cross generational evolutions!

          Reply
          • i mean Oh Mega Groudon and Kyogre, another Mega Legendary……
            Whats this its not?
            Its some kind of Awakened or Primal Groudon and Kyogre?
            SWEET

    • definitely mega stones.

      diancie is based off morganite. All the mega stones end with “ite” or “nite” just like morganite (the pink diamond). Morganite is in the same family as emerald.

      There also 2 other gem stones in this gem family. Heliodor, and Aquamarine. Heliodor (Greek) is a brilliant gold (color of shiny groudon). The fact it has greek origin, and that Alpha and Omega are A and Z in the greek alphabet implies that all 3 will be getting mega evolutions/mega stones. jade orb/blueorb/red orb will be replaced with groudonite, rayquazanite, and kyogreite.

      Morganite – Dianice
      Heliodor – Groudon
      Aquamarine – Kyogre
      Emerald – Rayquaza/Zygarde

      • Assuming they are megas. And Fairy seems pretty plausible, seeing as Mega Kyogre is glowing, although it did become darker, so Water/Dark is another possibility.

        Reply
  55. As @Timo:disqus suggested, here are some of the things I think were wrong in X/Y:
    -Bland plot
    -After the 4th Gym nothing was really challenging, trainer levels & AI didn’t change much as you progress through the game
    -Only 3 other characters use Megas, you have an unfair advantage over the rest
    -No regular Safari

    • Who knows what if the game revolves around a New Front in both Magma and Aqua already like a gazillion steps ahead and they already awoken both Groudon and Kyogre and they’re quarreling and during the quarrel they inadvertently created a new gigantic landmass

      Reply
    • The official Pokemon website aways twists things. In the past they stated mega mewtwo y and the Kyurem forms were “new pokemon”. Also not everyone has played 3rd generation so it is a new world for some Pokemon fans.

    -An option for higher difficulty
    -Your Pokemon follow you again (which I know is difficult in a 3D environment, but its not impossible)
    -Lots to do after defeating the champion besides the Elite 4
    -Even more improvements to Ev training and IV training

  64. What if two regions are in this game, Hoenn and something else 0_0 I’d literally cry myself to sleep every night.

  79. The old PokeJungle is back 😀 And here comes the X & Y cycle again XD I LIETRALLY HAVE GOOSEBUMPS RIGHT NOW OMFG!

    I think the space station will let us go out to space and catch Deoxys, Mega Swampert and Sceptile will be present (which is why they weren’t in X & Y), and I bet it’s going to be AMAZING! EVen better than X & Y since they are better adapted to the 3DS now and I cannot wait AT ALL to see some footage!!!!!! I’M SO EXCITEDD

  85. If the Kalos starters get Mega’s, I hope Mega Chesnaught gets “Stance Change”…

    When it mega evolves, its normal stance (hiding behind his shell) has +50 to its defenses. But when it attacks it goes into attack form (+50 to its offenses but loses the +50 from normal stance).

    To go back into normal stance you would use Spiky Shield. Instead of lowering their attack like King’s Shield it’ll hurt them like the regular move but revert you back to normal stance.

    If they will have 8 gigabytes… There has to be a HUGE amount of content! X & Y was only 1 gigabyte. Maybe a neighboring region? Mega Stones are Kalos-exclusive so what if that neighboring region is over the mountains and it’s how we’ll get Mega Stones into Hoenn? The graphics must be amazing!!! Such us the video already! AND WHERE IS DJJA!??!?!
    Is Amie in this game along with ST and the PSS? What if the PokeNav has those in it!? :O AND THE MUSIC!!! X & Y’s music was OUTSTANDING! Just imagine the trumpets! Ever since the announcement of HG/SS, I started noticing hints and references to Hoenn in D/P/Pt. I became a really huge supporter and hated when people said there would be no remake because you could transfer and the point of them was to transfer. Screw the non-believers! HOENN RE-CONFIRMED!!!!! OMFG YESSS

  91. Just putting it out there:
    X/Y music is pretty good! It just hasn’t got the deserved praise because we’re all bathing in the nostalgia of old games. We haven’t even had enough time to notice the sweet little details of the game.

  92. My top 5 mega requests I would love to see lol:

    Mightyenanite │Dark │Strong Jaws (come in with Moxie Mightyena, grab an attack boost, then mega evolve into Strong Jaws. Boosting the power of all your fang moves).

    Laprasite │Water/Ice │Refrigerate (Lapras has access to Dragon Dance but lack of STAB physical moves. With refrigerate, it’ll be able to turn Body Slam into an Ice Haxer and sweep).

    Jynxinite │Fairy/Ice │Aroma Veil (it’ll be the only Pokemon to be Ice/Fairy, has STAB Draining Kiss now, and with the given ability it can’t be Taunted or Encored etc, allowing it to set up free Calm Mind’s).

    Walreinite │Water/Ice │Bulletproof (with bulletproof it’d be resistant to Energy Ball, Shadow Ball, Focus Blast moves that would obliterate it)

    Metagrossite │Steel │Iron Fist (loses it’s Psychic typing upon Mega evolving, and gets Iron Fist boosting the power of Meteor Mash, Bullet Punch, Thunderpunch, Ice Punch)

  95. I just really want the contests to return which I’m sure they will. Because if you transfer a Pokemon that won ribbons from RSE to Kalos they get changed into commemorative ribbons, which tells me they are designing new ones.

  96. Gamefreak/Nintendo if you’re reading this I got one more quest, make sure the battle field for Wi-Fi Battles looks cool, or allow us to change it like how we can change music. Because this green digital thing with the fake audience is ugly AF.

  97. So is anyone going to speculate on where omega and alpha fit in. Other than them being the last and first letters of the Greek alphabet, which I think Is pretty clever.

    Reply
    • All I know is that the game(s) will definitely have something to do with the King AZ. Given all the occult meaning behind it. And seeing that Groudon/Kyogre destroy the ecosystem, I can imagine Zygarde monitoring and coming out to stop them. Thousand Waves in Kyogre’s version, learns Thousand Arrows in Groudons version. I don’t think there will be a cut scene of Rayquaza coming down to stop them this time because that was the old storyline, this one is a new game. There’s probably some in-game story about the terms “alpha” and “omega”.

    They have been working on this for a long time now. Especially since it’s releasing worldwide in 6 months! 6 MONTHS!

    Time to –
    1. Visit PokeJungle everyday (check)
    2. Wait anxiously for Coro Coro
    3. Endure news droughts
    4. Repeat trailers 5,000 thousand times until a new one is shown
    5. Watch Get TV again
    6. Talk with you guys like the X & Y announced times
    7. Get the games
    8. Repeat the same thing that happened with X & Y
    9. Transfer competitive pokes and adjust to the new metagame

  102. Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sappire will be 2D. 3D is only going to be used in certain parts. (Such as Battles, Caves/Buildings, Cutscenes, etc.). I was hoping the game would be in complete 3D! This is not a let down thought! 😀

    Reply
    • I think it’s better this way for the time being. At least until they can improve their 3D to get rid of any lag so it’s actually worth using the 3D feature.

      Reply
        • Yep. I played through the story using 3D whenever it let me. But I found the lag during some battles unbearable.

          Reply
          • When you left Santalune Forest at the start of the game… My God. The lag was so bad! IK the 3DS is not super powerful, yet come on. It was only four 3D models.

          • Really? 2013’s E3 was amazing. Mario Kart 8, SM3W, X/Y Trailer, X from Monolith Soft, etc. Nintendo got a B+ at this last year’s E3! This one is going to be better!

          • Last year’s E3 was decent for Nintendo, but they have a track record for being underwhelming at times lol Either way I’m excited

  113. I’m really surprised to see how quickly this game was announced. It took 3.5 years to work on X/Y. Development for X/Y took place after B/W was released. I wonder how long it took to make this game!

  119. Holy. I wasn’t expecting this.
    Like.
    I thought this was a joke.
    Then I saw the video.
    And joyously celebrated in my mind. (My mom just got home when I had finished celebrating out loud by fangirling and screaming)
    Yes. Just yes.
    Emerald is all I have and all I have known, so if these are remakes with a twist/new graphics/slightly different, then I’d finally get to play the originals! 😀
    If it is like B2W2, then I wouldn’t mind either, because those were the better games, imo.
    All I need to see now is what they will look like. Screenshots, please. Please. I need to see what Hoenn will look like!!
    I just can’t to spend more time fangirling over a new game and new info and new speculationish.
    There’s even some right now! 😀
    To me, I’m leaning towards more a B2W2 thing that they are hinting at, but if it’s just a remake, I wouldn’t mind either. It’s Hoenn, for goodness’ sake, who wouldn’t be excited for it?!
    And I believe those might be Mega evolutions of Groudon and Kyogre, not forms, but hey, whatever floats GF’s boat. (I might have gotten used to Megas since I last talked on here regularly….what. I blame replaying the games and actually using them……and Mega Charizard X. And Mega Abomasnow. Don’t. Judge.)
    Anyways, glad to be back somewhat and talking again! (I just couldn’t relate to the tournament and other stuff going on)
    EDIT: I need Trick House to come back. Like. If not, I would be so sad and disappointed.

    Reply
    • I think it is a Sequel. I think there may be new versions of Team Aqua and Magma, that are after some sort of new untapped energy to control Groudon and Kyogre. Thats possibly where these new ‘forms’ come from.

      Although they do somewhat resemble the patterns they usually show when they are in the vicinity of a Blue/Red Orb.

      Reply
        • They could be. I think it would be cool if the Blue Orb has to be dipped into the Lava at Mt. Chimney to turn into the mega Stone.

          And the Red Orb has to be dipped into the deepest underwater lake.

  134. Do you guys think Steven will the new head of Devon Corportaion. After maybe his father passes away or something. That would be quite cool.
    You meet him in Rustbro City and he gives you the option to pick a Johto Starter (holding their mega stone) and after that you run into him a few times during your journey. After beating the game you get to battle him and he gives you a Mega Stone for Metagross.

    Reply
  135. Ok so lets theoryize! Do you think these are remakes or sequals? and are they mega’s of the legends or not? i think these are sequals and these are megas. i think there megas due to how UNsimaler the 2 are to there first form. what do you guys think?

  141. Wait, so if we get Greninja and Charizard in SSB4 to represent gen 6 (and gen 1, which was very prominent in gen 6), then does that mean that we will get a gen 3 representative because of OR/AS? And if we already have a Fire and Water starter… Sceptile for SSB4?

    Also, the cover art pretty much confirms that Groudon and Kyogre get a Mega or a new form somehow considering they look different from their normal forms on the covers. Could it be the stones that Magma/Aqua used to awaken them in the originals is actually Mega Stones? This would mean that Rayquaza also gets a Mega.

    HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE

    I believe this won’t be a rushed product either. All that time spent on XY was spent a lot on modeling all 700+ Pokemon. Now, they don’t need to do that anymore (unless new ones are added), so these games probably have been in development for a while since we already have a release window. I’m going to assume that the game itself is 85% complete and GF is just using this time to use feedback gained from XY to further improve these games. They honestly could take until next year for all I care. As long as SwampScep get their Megas OR I WILL RIOT!

    Also, just so people can quickly compare the original forms and the cover art forms of Kyogre and Groudon…

  155. I do not know whether or not to act if I am excited for the Ruby & Sapphire remakes. As far as I’m concerned, they should fix the typing changes they made for Togepi, Snubbull, Granbull, Cleffa, Clefairy, Clefairy, and Clefable (should be Normal/Fairy). Maybe then I will feel a little better about the new Fairy-type. Additionally, I wish for a little tinkering on the type effectiveness chart. Here are the following changes I want to see for Gen VII:
    1. Fairy-types take 1x from Fighting-types.
    2. Add Rubber-type. Make them immune to Fairy-type attacks, weak against Fire-, Ice-, Poison-, and Dragon-type attacks, and resistant to Water-, Ground-, Grass-, Electric-, and Fighting-type attacks.
    3. I wish for Rubber-type attacks to be super effective against Water-, Electric-, Ground-, and Fairy-types, and not very effective against Fire-, Ice-, Dragon-, Rock-, and Steel.
    I am just giving my opinion about what I saw and why I was disappointed. Please feel free to give me yours. Thank you!

    Reply
    • I disagree with the idea of Rubber type, adding a new type was difficult enough as it was, the type effectiveness chart has to make sense. Also, the Normal/Fairy would be a bit pointless and it would be awkward to retype those same pokemon again. Not bashing on your ideas, just giving my opinions as well :3

      Reply
      • Well I was looking forward to the game until the changed the typing on some of the Pokémon I liked. I was looking forward to having two alternate evolutions for Togepi… Mou!

        Reply
          • I was okay with them adding a new type. I just did not like how they arranged the typing. Fairy-types being resistant to Fighting-type moves just for super effectiveness against them. I found it to be a little overkill. I think they may have been too busy obsessing over the Mega Evolution concept to fix it. No offense, but if they hadn’t fixated on that then they wouldn’t have rushed with the type changes and effectiveness chart. I mean mega evolution is great, but it gets boring real fast…

          • I don’t think the concept of Fairy/Dark type would would work for Granbull. Here’s something that will. Give Granbull a Fighting/Fairy-type evolution. That would be awesome!!! Gaaaaoooo~! XD

      • I find the name “condomon” a little disturbing. However, I did come up with a few Pokémon and even came up with a few good Japanese names for them based on my research. For example:
        Stretchimp (Ukkipyon in Japanese)
        Tiny Chimp Pokémon
        Pure Rubber Type
        The term “pyon” means “boing” in Japanese. Same goes for the onomatopea “ukki-ukki” which is the sound a monkey makes.

  167. I expect them to expand the movepools of some Pokemon.

    In FRLG they gave Charmander Metal Claw by level up, which it couldn’t learn in Ruby and Sapphire. And then in Emerald forward they started making metal claw it’s egg move.

    Give Lilligant Moon Blast GF. And if Kyogre is going to be Water/Fairy add some damn fairy moves to its movepool. Not “Charm”.

  173. Just thinking about it. I think major battles need a revamp. I got mad seeing Rivals, Team Flare, and Prof. Sycamore just getting 3D Models. Gym Leaders & Elite Four Members should have them. Also, fixing the lag in X/Y Battles would be awesome! Also, 3D models on the battlefield. IDK if the 3DS could handle that but it would sure be great!

    Reply
  174. Ok guys in all seriousness.

    ORAS come out in November.
    That is 6 months away.
    This means that either GF has been putting a lot of work into this game, or they rushed through it and are working really hard on Z.

    And also because of the small time between now and the release date, there will definetly be major news every month leading up to the release of the game, or not.

    So I’m going to leave for today, (I’ve got Confirmation practice tonight and confirmation tomorrow ugh) but before I do so, ARE YOU GROUDONERS AND KYOGREUNTS EXCITED!?!?!?

  178. Do you think that when Mega Lati@s appear in these games, they’ll look different? There’s a theory that their Megas are betas because they look the same to each other.

    Reply
    • Their mega’s are final. You can tell their differences by the color of their eyes and the height when you use them. Mega Latios takes up my whole screen and makes everything look minuscule. And yes I believe we will find them in these games.

      Soul Dew is no longer an item, so they will have replaced them with the mega stone. Beat elite 4, talk to TV, reporter tells us of lat fleeing around Hoenn. We go find it, catch it, it drops mega stone.

      They’re both purple because if you mix red/blue you get purple.

  190. Guys if you translate Zygarde into greek (not 100% sure i did it right), you get:
    ζψγαρδε (no clue if that will go through)
    Anyways each greek letter represents a certain number, so if you add up all the numbers in the translation you get 820… no idea if that means anything or not but w/e
    Also the greek letter Xi, Ξ or ξ, has something to do w/equilibrum reactions in chemistry (or something like that). It is the 14th letter & is 60 (i can go more into the implications of 60 but i wont for now…)
    And i know the greek letter Mu, Μ or μ, has something to do with constants (especially in physics), it is the 12th letter of the greek alphabet (the “middle” one) and is 40
    just some things to think about :3

            cuz all generations have been compatible with other games from the same generation

        • most likely they didn’t expect hackers for the 3ds, the 3ds isn’t exactly easy to hack and and when it has been hack not much has been done with it, so they probably felt a little confident but they underestimated pokemon fansi guess lol

    • I’m expecting one of the games to be prehistoric tbh. XY allows you trade illegal mons to other players online like “Moon ball noibat”, “fast ball torchic”, this means apricorn’s will be making a return so we can catch HA pokes in them. Lady in Azalea pokecenter says “before pokeballs were invented, trainers would use apricorns to catch their Pokemon”. I definitely feel a prequel. “A whole new world” implies this.

    If you look closely at Kyogre and Groudon, you can see an alpha and omega-like symbol on each one of them.

  209. Food for thought: Now, a whole new generation of Pokémon fans will experience the dramatic storyline that unfolds in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire. It doesn’t say “Players that loved the original Ruby & Sapphire will be able to experience the games … AGAIN” like a remake would.

  210. I feel like the only way the trailer could have been better was if they had music playing in the background.

    Ground/Fire

    That would be totally balanced, also it would bring in all the elements (including air from Rayquaza of course)..

    Reply
  239. What I want:
    You choose 3 pokemon for the contests:
    It displays the pokemon like in amie
    then you choose a move
    if the move has the same categorial type as the contests, you get more points.
    The point is to combine different type moves with the same category (beauty, cool, smart etc) with high appeal, so they create something beautiful.
    like if its water, then ice the water freezes. Then if you use a fire type move, it will turn the frozen water into chrystalls! 😀
    Then onto the battle stage.
    The health gauges are like the ones in the anime.
    So in the battle, you want to use a high damaging move with high appeal to get more points, but if you miss, or use a move with recoil, YOU lose points.
    So yeah, that’s it.

        • Not exactly, spinoffs hold their own grounds. Lets say, Diamond. Great game. Come black 2, white 2, the graphical improvements were vast. From a Graphical stand point, the last Pokemon games on the 3DS will be stunning. These frst games add new features as well to see how people like them. The whole camera thing in Pokemon Amie was a test. The camera feature didn’t work too well which disappointed people, the upcoming creepy pikachu game also uses a camera feature, this game is also a test of the camera features, to improve upon it for future titles.. So, yes, spin-offs can be tests as well. But it is mainly standard titles.

          • Well, Ranger was the first DS pokemon game, and that tested the touch screen compatibility.
            This led to the Poketch in DPP, which continued to be tested all the way until now, “PokeTouch.”

          • Both spin-offs and main series game correspond in that way. Despite this, they still manage to creature awesome games. :3

          • Yes, the games were capable of having greater graphics but the whole reason for them looking cartoony still was to capture the signature pokemon art style. This included overworld and everything.

          • That’s not my complaint. They’re just plain ugly and unpolished. I could see them broken pixels meters away from my 3DS. And, In my opinion, the colors are sort of dead. But, graphic-wise, it could be much more polished.

  247. Honestly, I cant really say I was freaking out whn I saw it. I thought it was some joke when I saw it on youtube. And when I sfound it was real, I wasnt expcting news, so I wasnt as exicted as if they would’e annouced for pokemon news today.

    • I had my friend txt it to me about 9 or 10 this morning. I saw the “still image” before I pressed play on the video, and it looked fake to me. I’m like.. oh boy , why did my friend just txt me a fanmade RS video. So I decided to watch and laugh anyway, when I saw that little Pikachu drop I knew shit just got real and that what I was about to watch was real lol. I SCREAMED. My hype still hasn’t died.

  249. So with Hoenn confirmed, does this mean we’ll be getting Diancie, Volcanion, and Hoopa all within the next 6 months…or nahh? It’d be the quickest distribution of Event Pokemon I think XDD

    Reply
  250. Also, Diancie & Volcanion are the only ones that have in-game events in XY (boring dialogue, nothing cool). Which leads me to believe Hoopa will play a role in these new games.

  256. So since Heartgold and Soulsilver kinda followed parts of Crystal with suicune and stuff, do you think that will happen in these games with Emerald? So like Scott will follow you around and there will be the battle frontier? Also, do you think pokemon will follow us? They should make a trend to include that in every remake from now on.

    Reply
  257. Sometimes, I just wish some gaming companies/trademarks (looking at you GF) would just release something very small concerning a new game, and just stick with that until release day. Like the trailer we got today, what if they only released that until November? I feel like it would make the experience sooooo much better imo. Audino, I think I’m just thinking about stuff to post here xD

        • Yeah, I remember.

          At least for ORAS, we will only need to wait 6 months, as you said, as opposed to 10 months for X and Y.

    • Me personally, I feel like they’re making the King AZ out to be some type of God, or Jesus. “I am the alpha and the omega” isn’t that what Jesus said? LOL. anyways.. Alpha & Omega are respectively A and Z (AZ), and the trailer says “whole new world”. I really feel like one game is going to take place in the past, and the other take place in the future because Alpha/Omega also means Beginning/End. Then there’s Greece which isn’t too far away from France either. Argh all this speculation got my brain going haywire, they really need to just spill some concrete news that we can thrive off lol.

  266. I remember what I did in XY’s release that Saturday.

    I was lining up at a “backwater” video games shop. I got there at 8:30am and I was somehow totally first in line. By the time it opened there were only 10 of us. Once I got the game, I left that location and went to a more mainstream location and paraded the game in front of the over 100 people in line. And a lot of them got totally pissed off… I just told them “hey, I lined up to get the game just like you are now…” which is kind of a half-lie…

        I feel I deserved that trolling opportunity since:
        1. I knew that “deserted” store existed.
        2. I went “earlier” than those guys.
        3. I told some of the people in the longer line about that shop (after trolling them of course), yet none of them were willing to trust me and walk about 6 blocks to that other store with no line.

        Well that was nice of you. I wish my car had a sound system so I can do that haha.

Well, I mean other than the new marking on Kyogre’s forehead, it seems that they are being possessed by the orbs that Maxie and Archie used to control them. I hope they’re remakes instead of sequels. Or at least reboots, in a sense that they are sorta rewritten to work new elements such as Fairy type into them.

    • I can’t stay away from Pokejungle for more than a day.
      And looking back…

      I did something uncalled for towards a troll, which I found extremely rude and offensive. I immediately retracted myself from Pokejungle as a sign of apology and to prevent further dispute between the troll and myself.
      I also thought that after everything I did, no one would like me anymore.

      Then I thought about it, I looked back at my year on Pokejungle, I took a nap, and then decided that I just couldn’t leave. To leave behind my friends, and the memories.

      So I came back and started fresh. We’re all humans, and we all make mistakes. Sometimes what we do isn’t what we mean. It just gets to the point that our anger builds up inside of us and takes over.

      Whether or not you still decide to leave, no one here hates you. You may have gotten carried away, but we’ll still accept you back into the community. After all, we are all family. Aren’t we, guys?

      So, before leaving, think about what you’re gonna miss out on. Think about those that are your friend, and those that have allowed you to have a great experience on Pokejungle.

      May we, one day, cross paths again.

    But the Japanese logos for the original Ruby and Sapphire look the same as the ones for the remakes, further proof to me that these are remakes and not sequels!

  279. The announcement was made only yesterday, so we were unable to include them in the supplementary document for this financial briefing, but the latest installments from the Pokémon franchise, “Pokémon Omega Ruby” and “Pokémon Alpha Sapphire” will be released globally for Nintendo 3DS in November this year. They are full-remakes of the Game Boy Advance “Pokémon Ruby” and “Pokémon Sapphire” games, which sold more than 5.44 million units in Japan and more than 16.22 million units worldwide.

    Reply
  291. Speculation time! In Emerald, you’d get the 2nd gen starters after you complete the Hoenn Dex. So what if, alongside the 2nd gen starters, you’d get their mega stones? Since the 2nd gen remakes were just a couple of years ago, they obviously wouldn’t make a remake of a remake so.. If they want to implement 2nd gen starter megas, now would be the time, I guess.

    Reply
  292. I honestly disappointed that these games are full-on remakes, but I’m happy and excited nonetheless for these games to come in November! 😀
    Although, since it is a remake, I have a few questions.
    1) How are they going incorporate information from the latest games? RSE timeline is during RBY.
    2) So how is trading going to work with X&Y since they are some years after Gen 5? Unless X&Y are actually in the same timeline as RSE/RBY?
    3) Megas? I really don’t see how they’re going to incorporate that in the games because timeline issues but Origins kinda pushed that out
    4) Mega Mascots? The cover art imo is just showing them being possessed by their orbs and not a “mega” or “primal” form
    5) Will they incorporate Emerald data? I’m believing they will since they did that with HGSS and C. So will it be Steven or Wallace? My bets on Wallace as Champ and Steven is the Red. Maybe through Steven you learn Mega Evolutions?

    I’ll just throw this opinion out there. I honestly hope this is the last remake. GF is pretty much in this void where people want remakes and are also getting sick of remakes. I want GF to move forward and build new regions and I believe ORAS will bring closure to remakes.

  298. The only thing I’m a little scared about for these games is the fact that while many of the Gen 3 Pokemon have reasonable movesets, there are a lot of of them that have kind of pathetic ones, even now in Gen 6. I hope they keep the current movesets at least. I think the lack of moves for a lot of them was something that escaped my mind of the past 10 years.

  299. If it’s just a simple, pure remake, set in the style of XY, I’ll get bored with it really quick to be honest, and will probably find myself playing XY again shortly after.

    I can never even finish playing a rom of Emerald because hoenn bores me so much. I wanted something much MORE than a remake… the whole “epic new world, dramatic adventure” thing really led me on. I’ll just stay kaput until they release something for concrete. I’m not gonna of that piece of interview that was posted in a thread.

    • I don’t think it’s a pure remake because they will have to add somehow megas and the features from emerald ( I hope)

      Reply
      • That’s what baffles me. How is it a pure remake and the titles imply (atleast to me) that AZ might have some sort of involvement. I was expecting them to be prequels. Or maybe be about the beginning of groudon/kyogre war, and the end of the war. Because the leviathan/behemoth did battle at the beginning and the end.

    I just hope that moving party members in ball capsules will be less annoying now. I didn’t like removing them to move them.

    Reply
    • That’s why I hated ball capsules. They were annoying AF when you went to place a pokemon in storage and was reminded that they have seals on them etc.

      And contests will return. This was confirmed when Bank was released and people migrated their Ribbon pokemon to XY and saw that your ribbons get replaced with Commemorative Ribbons (meaning they’re designing new contest ribbons).

  301. I’m definitely getting Alpha sapphire! Does anyone think mega Groudon and fat whale will get additional types? I think Groudon with be fire/ground and Kyogre will be Water/steel. They can’t take away drought and drizzle from them though XD

    Reply
  302. Guys, there’s something I just thought. First, look at this image that has already been posted: http://imgur.com/r/pokemon/MhXH5ea

    Now, look at Groudon and Kyogre (the original designs, not the new forms), the black markings on Groudon’s arms and legs resemble an Omega, while the red markings on Kyogre’s fins resemble an Alpha.

    Aaaannnnnd, the titles Pocket Monsters Omega and Pocket Monsters Alpha are trademarked. So… Maybe RS were at some point intended to be Omega and Alpha? Then, what about Rayquaza? The only letters I can think of are Sigma and Omicron, but neither is similar enough to Rayquaza’s markings.

    Reply
    • I personally feel like Rayquaza doesn’t have to be based off a greek letter. Alpha & Omega have extreme significance, extreme occult meaning, all these “Sigma Espilon” different titles for rayquaza dont make sense.

      Alpha for beginning of war
      Omega for end of war

      how does a middle random greek letter for rayquaza tie into that?

      Reply
      • Dunno. Maybe that’s why they changed it, assuming my theory is correct.

        However, looking again, the yellow marking in Rayquaza’s head resembles an Omicron. Does the Omicron, or any similar letter in any other alphabet, have some special meaning?

        Reply
    • It’s an M that resembles a Volcano and an A that resembles bones/whatever. Calling it an alpha and omega is way too farfetched.

          • Really ? OMG its amazing, one of the beat challenges in pokemon no doubt. They will have it tho mark my words haha. You will love it 🙂

  305. “Groundon and Kyroge are heavily based on the leviathan and behemoth who in biblical lore fought at the beginning of time. Further in the lore states that they will renew their fight at the end of time.” A (alpha) = beginning, Z (omega) = end. This is what made me think that it wouldn’t be full on remakes.

    It made me feel like one game would be a prequel, one would be a sequel (focusing on war). Then there’s the increased PEGI rating 6 that a Pokemon game has never had. Yeah, miss me with that full on remake stuff.

  306. The only reason the teaser stated a dramatic new world is because its launching in an era of new pokemon trainers that never played ruby sapphire emerald. So its a new region to them not veterans. 🙂

    Reply
      • The storyline is fairly dramatic taking over the land and seas to extinguish life ??? That’s pretty dramatic. And as I said the new region was said as its to establish the new fan base taken in by x and y. So to them its new but veteran’s its not. No false advertising here 🙂

        But I’m calling a smaller region similar to the sevi isles after the main storylinw. That’s sort of a new region 😉

  307. Yaaay! Atleast Kyogre/Groudon are pretty much confirmed to be Mega Evolutions.

    The Japanese arm of The Pokémon Company sent out an e-mail to all Daisuki Club members which ends up pointing out the differences to Groudon & Kyogre on the box-art, stating that they’re showcasing “never before seen Pokémon”, the same terminology they used Mega Mewtwo Y upon their reveal, indicating that they are more than stylised artwork of the Pokémon.

  309. Kyogre and Groudon stat wise are some of the weakest Legendary Pokemon, therefore I’m calling mega evolutions 🙂

  311. Please don’t mega Kyogre and Groudon. New forms with altered stats would be much better. Don’t break the metagame! **Glares Mega Kangaskhan**

    Reply
    • had this been 5th gen… you would have new forms… but Mega’s are the new mechanic, it wouldn’t make sense for them to go back to form changes after introducing a new mechanic.

      If Meloetta was introduced in gen 6 best believe its form change would’ve been a mega. In fact, it was most likely a beta for mega evolving. It was the only Pokemon that could change forms during battle.

      Mega Kyogre/Groudon are still inferior to Mega Mewtwo.

  312. Hey guys, I was thinking, what if the battle at the start of the game is changed into a horde battle? Honestly, it makes more sense for the Professor to run from a horde than to run from a single Pochiena. PokéSpe at least changed that to several Guraena.

  313. @ the beginning of the game when you’re moving into your new house, maybe they can have Gurdurr unloading the furniture into our homes instead of Machoke/Vigoroth. Since Gurdurr are wielding i-beams and you need those to build the 1st floor of a house =)

    Reply
    • Why would a Gurdurr be found in the Hoenn Region….
      That’s the point of a “New” Region to see its native Pokemon not something from somewhere else
      If you want a Gurdurr to help you move go live in Unova

      Reply
      • so by your logic… If I want to catch Groudon & Kyogre I should go go the native region where they’re found? But yet… they’re found in Johto as well… Don’t be an ass Ian, just cause they’re remakes doesn’t mean it will follow the same exact poke.

        Ruby & Sapphire, Machokes help moved in furniture, they’re from Kanto. Shouldn’t I have went to Kanto if I wanted body builders to help me move in my home. Aren’t Machoke supposed to be native to Kanto. You argument failed.

        Emerald they changed it and Vigoroth moves your stuff into your home.

        I don’t see why they can’t change it to a more relevant Pokemon like gurdurr.

    Milotics so desirable because Milotic chooses its trainer.

    Milotics elegant beauty and sheer strength is unstoppable.

    One whip of a Milotics hair can render paralysis by infatuation.

    If one looks milotic in the eyes they will turn to stone.

    Milotic can cure any disease with a rub of its marvelous scales.

    boys prefer nidoking & girls prefer queen. but i have them both 100 & nidoking is stronger. but sence im a girl i prefer nidioqueen. nidoqueen reminds me of home i don’t why but it just gives me that worm felling. u know i drink milk 3 times a day becas i beleve it will make me as strong as nidoqueen…….u know the other day i had a DREM about nidoqueen it was the happiest night & drem of my life. it was like sooooo awsam,i was speechless all i could say is nothing cause i was sleeping. OMG u know OMG

  319. Well they are confirmed to be full remakes, and not sequels. I’m not as hyped as I was yesterday, but I’ll wait to see if the gameplay is appealing. But I really want new/innovative features. Many of the features that made RSE feel new are now standard (i.e berries/abilities/EVs/battle frontier) So at glance outside of Dive/Secret Bases/Contests, there isn’t really anything new that intrigues me (Mega’s don’t count since they are givens).

  320. Ok so, now this is just a question, but, if we were to get new mega evolutions beside latias/latios. why would they not be in x and y’s data?

      Reply
      • Thank you for clearing this up for me. But here’s another question, would that mean you could only use these new megas against other people with the remakes, or would they be banned like the griseous orb when you went into the union room with the griseous orb in platinum?

  322. Honesty, these games are going to be awkward for me to play. R/S/E had the first MAJOR graphics jump and only three gens of Pokemon. These graphics are going to be even more amazing, but since Kalos was about beauty, what with these graphics look like? Darker and grittier since it was one of those apocalyptic natural disaster themes? And Hoenn with over 700 Pokemon? Good Lord. It might as well be a new adventure.

          • Leavanny has always been a favorite of mine. But do think it will be able to be in the game? or will you trade over an egg? Maybe it could appear in petalburg woods?

          • Indeed! I won’t use the EXP. Share to make sure I still have a challenge. Even if it does get nerfed.

          • IDK. I’ve never played Hoenn. I did watch Chuggaaconroy’s Emerald Let’s Play, but I don’t remember when he got it.

          • Sometimes but if you truly know how that type works it’ll be a breeze

            The only challenge is finding them
            You could always just give them to yourself but that’s not as fun as sticking with the first one and forging on until you find the next member (No other types can be used in your party, you can still catch em but not battle with them, also if your starter doesn’t evolve into it u can use that until you get the first member of the type)

        • Honestly i’ve never really liked Swampert
          When i was a kid, all my friends had Swampert and always beat my Blaziken, also I never fell for the Mudkip Hype

          And one crucial fact, I’ve never EVER chosen a Water Starter for a Main Game, Always Fire except for Chespin

          • I usually do the same thing, but this time, since my first file of sapphire meant so much to me, I’m choosing Sceptile.

          • I’m going to tell you something from me childhood

            I played Pokemon Sapphire Completely and 100% Blind
            After say 3 years of not playing a Pokemon game

            My Mother Bought it for me for the Plane ride to Florida when I was like 8-9, and I still remember being dragged through the Airport terminal Trying to both play and keep moving (we were running late) Right before I was told to turn off electronics I randomly pressed a button and the next thing i had was Torchic I beaten the Poochyena and quickly saved

            Everything was new, the mechanics, the Pokemon, EVERYTHING, But i was ENTHRALLED BY EVERYTHING

            I really hope ORAS allows me to revisit this beloved childhood memory but in a way its new and exciting to look back upon

            3. I didn’t like BW’s Native Pokémon Policy. I found it boring and had no clue what to use. Also, BW got me back into Pokémon after I had enough of FR/LG. There were many Hoenn and Sinnoh Pokémon I learned about and wanted to use, but I couldn’t. I used them eventually in later installments of the franchise.

  329. Kyaa! I can’t wait! 🙂 Whose excited to see Fortee City and Sootopolis City in 3D? Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, specifically Sapphire, was my first Pokemon game, and I absolutely loved it! I can’t wait to play Brendan, the male protagonist, and travel across Hoenn with my Pokemans! 🙂

  330. Do you think we’ll see Hoenn at twilight and night time? Or will it be like in X/Y where they just make it sort of orange or blue-ish and call it a job well done? DPP had a much better day/night look, not to mention different pokémon and slower music at night.

With the amount of water and types of water pokemon in these games not to mention the heavy influence of Dive and underwater caverns int he game i would love for my dream of underwater battles (in the same vein as sky battles) to come to fruition. Where you can only use water types and certain water type attacks will be stronger or influenced in some other way. Also how cool would it be if the Sootopolis Gym used it (unlikely i know as it would require only water types being used but a guy can dream right?).

    • My name is johnson felix really want to share my testimony on how i became an Illuminati member, through my friend. i was moving with my friend for more than 10 years and he have been getting rich everyday and even giving me money but he never told me the secret of his success until a day i was frustrated to let him know that he should help me also that was when he open up to me and tell me that he was a member of the Illuminati that he have been in the court for more than 10 years that his riches and protection came from this court.so i told him to let me be into the court but it not an easy task to be a member but i was finally initiated into the devil church of the Illuminati and i was confirm in there church. after a month of being a member of Illuminati i got promotion that same month in my working place and within a year i was promoted thrice in my working place to the extend of being a managing Director i never know how to thank this church of Illuminati and today am rich as my friend also, and also the one that surprise me most was that i got an accident with my new car and the car was right off but i still survive the accident and nothing happen to me i really thank you people Illuminati. so i just want to share to the world that this is real and it have help me and work for me so if you want to become a member i can lead you into the court of richness and you will never be poor again, know that it only a member in the Illuminati that can initiate you into the church of illumination they do not contact directly because they are fake Illuminati all over the world, this is my email [email protected] they will tell you how to join,or call +2347059014517

I mean its obvious to us all that they aren’t the Kyogre and Groudon we all know and love, but I also don’t think they are mega evolutions. I am hoping for screenshots from CoroCoro, and I can’t wait until Saturday’s Get TV!!!!

    • Swallow – you can get it early on and so train it more
      Skarmory – weak to fire but since you chose Sapphire that shouldn’t be a problem
      Salamence – wide move pool, being a dragon. Although there’s the fairies.

  357. I’m predicting Wallace will be the 8th Gym Leader and Steven will be the Champion. And after beating the game I predict Wallace to then become the Champion for all future visits to the Elite 4, Steven becomes the Super Boss, and when you re-match Gym Leaders, Juan takes Wallace’s place.

      “the beginning and the end” (Revelation 21:6, 22:13).

    Reply
  369. I have bilbical quotes for you all! 😛
    Anything about them seem similar to some of the hoenn legendaries? :3
    The first four are from the Book of Revelations, the last is from a book i read about the end of the world & used biblical evidence to explain it (basically the sun set off a “gravity wave” that messed up the Earth; there were volcanoes and earthquakes during the end, and a great flood that created the beginning of a “new” Earth)

    “The first angel blew his trumpet; and there came hail and fire mingled with blood, and this was hurled upon the earth. A third of the earth was burnt, including a third of the trees and all of the green grass.”

    “The second angel blew his trumpet, and it was as though a great mountain blazing with fire was hurled into the sea: a third of the sea turned into blood, a third of the living things in the sea were killed and a third of all ships were destroyed,”

    “The third angel blew his trumpet, and a huge star fell from the sky, burning like a ball of fire, and it fell on a third of all rivers and on the springs of water; this star was called Wormwood, and a third of all the water turned to wormwood, so that many people died; the water became so bitter.”

    “And the seventh angel emptied his bowl into the air, and a great voice boomed out from the sanctuary: ‘The end has come.’ Then there were flashes of lightning and peals of thunder and a violent earthquake, unparalleled since humanity first came into existence. The Great City was split into three parts and the cities of the world collapsed.”

    “The Book of Revelation…is also where God likens himself to the alphabet. Just as in the beginning was the word, God says he is both Alpha and Omega. The Beginning and the End.”

    Reply
    • now it makes sense why the music has trumpets lmao. but I posted something similar to this a few mins ago below…

      i’ll repost it:

      Groudon represents behemoth, Kyogre represents Leviathan, Rayquaza represents the Ziz (and also Jesus).

      Alpha in Greek is the letter A

      we know kyogre/groudon/rayquaza will have them. we know latias/latios has them. we know their are placeholder mega’s titled R1, R2, R3 that are surely being saved for three Regi’s.

    Integrate it into PSS System and Super Training and Amie and more
    [PSS] The Pss will still have a Touchscreen Application with your PokeNav but at the same time can be accessed by a PC in your base, where u can organize friends an other statistics

    [Super Training] Now is a new feature that can be accessed at your base via a Punching Bag Station where you take your pokemon and preform a similar mini game but involving a Punching Bag to strengthen your Pokemon’s Core

    [Amie] Now you can use a specialized (and Colorful) Play Mat to play and interact with your Pokemon, and while you can feed your Pokemon Lesser Pokeblocks to both feed and increase their contest Appeal

    Some other functions include doing mini games with other Trainers and Entering others bases

        Gen 6 they shiny locked xerneas & yveltal & the 3 birds…

        they will def shiny lock the pentagon kyogre/groudon or whatever shape they get in their summary.

        I would say I’m not 100% guaranteed, but the fact that since Gen 6, Poke’s who can’t breed will always have three 31 iv’s makes it seem like… they won’t release the shiny lock. Cause then we’ll be soft resetting for 3IV shinies (or more iv’s).

            They probably made it like this though because it was easy to get ahold of 6IV Shiny Groudons in the old games, from RNG’ing or from hacking

          • Yep. Just cause they made the game doesn’t give them any reason to hack theirs.
            that got me thinking… why is it when you slap a policeman you get arrested but when you slap a non-policeman no one gives a sh*t (except the person who got slapped)

        • “Gen 5 they shiny locked every legend in-game (Zekrom/Reshiram included)”
          I think you mean only Zekrom, Reshiram, Victini, Keldeo, Meloetta, and Genesect (the latter 3 i think are the only ones you dont actually find in game, and Genesect is the only one which was dist. as a shiny)

Crystal and was only ever in an anime special and had a few cameos…May is much more known as a protagonist so i can’t see her being replaced….if someone was replaceable it would be Brendan since he is less known. But i don’t think they will replace the protagonists this time around.

        • Anime wise i suppose this is true but simply going by the games she appeared in R/S and Emerald and had a 4 season long arc in the anime with a 5 ep return arc in Sinnoh so she is well liked and it would be silly to replace her. It’s just a shame she is unlikely to make a return in the anime since her voice actress is unwell.

          • D: I know it is sad…i mean you never know they may replace the VA but the japanese really do not like to do that. It would be great if Max finally aged and got his Ralts…evolved it into Gallade and BOOM Mega Gallade :DD

  392. With the recent news, it’s highly probable that Groudon and Kyogre will probably get mega-evolutions or new forms. The “Never before seen Pokemon” caption under the boxarts points out the obvious. They used the same caption for Mega-Mewtwo and black and white Kyurem.

    Reply
      • Remember, Kyurem’s forms had similar designs and the glowing marks but they were called “Hyperactive.” My theory is that Groudon and Kyogre will enter “Hyperactive” mode and then after that, Mega-evolve. Game Freak is smart enough to tease us with this image and let us speculate whether they are just altercations or Mega-evolutions altogether. However, the boxarts don’t look anything like a Mega-evolution, more like a “Hyperactive.”

    • I’m planning on spriting/editing the current sprites of Groudon and Kyogre to match the new forms/megas.

  393. So this is why we only got on eeveelution! Every even numbered gen has showcased TWO eeveelutions and gen 6 only introduced one; Sylveon. If the remakes do introduce new Pokemon, I hope it’s a new eeveelution. Hoping it’s either a Poison or Steel type. The Poison one can have an ability that turns every normal moves into Poison type attacks and the Steel type one can have an ability that allows Steel-type moves to do supereffective damage against Electric types.

    Reply
      • We can still get an eeveelution. Say they cut down on the water routes or add more islands, on one of those islands could be the Dragon place that Heavy spoke of. Meaning, we could still get a Dragon eeveelution.

I am excited for them, but the whole bashing heads against the wall repeating “TRUMPETS” is pretty annoying.

          • ““U WOT M8” is a shorthand for
            “You what, mate?” which is a colloquialism used by English speakers in
            the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. It is typically used in
            response to an incoherent proposition put forth by someone else, along
            the similar lines of “what did you just say?” or wat or what is this. Alternatively, the phrase can be used devoid of any context to confuse anyone that is unfamiliar with the expression.”

  399. With the short timeframe between now and the release of the game, there should be not very many drought periods. I know for X and Y we had like a 2 or 3 month drought after Sylveon was announced, and up until the Instagram leaks game up. Since the game is 6 months away, there shouldn’t be much begging for more news. 🙂

    And I purposely do not believe that he is Water/Light. Fairy-type isn’t even 1 year old. They wouldn’t do that. Or would they. #TrollfreakHasTwoFaces

      My Aron is named A.A.Ron after the key and peele video.

      My Breloom is named Consome after the Consome Panchi commerical. Consome Panchi means cosmic punch. Breloom uses punch attacks.

          • Ugh, reminds me of a troll who threatened me and a few #InternetBuddies I got so pissed off about it. Can’t see the words “death” or “note” without being reminded.

          • Hold it to the person, not the anime/manga. We’ve all had our share of trolls. This site was plagued by some guy named Voltsonic and there were also many spongebob accounts which just spammed us and pissed people off. I don’t hate spongebob because of the troll. I dislike it because it’s no longer funny.

          • I’m not saying I don’t like deathnote, it just reminded me of a jerkass troll.

    • I do! I still need to think of my teams however. So I’ll probably plan it closer to the release date.
      However, I know one team (possibly Alpha Sapphire, but who knows) will be Frozen names.
      …..Leave me be, please. It is my obsession.

      • Having played both Firered and Heartgold, there is NO difference in the storyline whatsoever.
        Sure, the game looks better, but is that all we really play for? To experience the same thing for only better graphics and a few ingame changes that do absolutely nothing to the plot, or the intensity of the game?

        Reply
          • I would buy ORAS since Pokemon, I feel, has expanded over time. The storylines are better, and more intense…

        • yeah, I mean, it’s nice for people who haven’t played it (like myself), but Hoenn was the one I know the most of.
          Like, I know almost every Trainer in that game from replaying it so much (I was alone in the Pokemon world at that age….bad times. That’s kinda why I never got to experience secret bases….stupid social aspect!)

What most of us wanted is finally confirmed to be released (HURRN YESSS!!) But when it’s confirmed everyone starts talking about Sinnoh while HOENN IS BEING REMADE PEOPLE!!! Point is, I think we should all be happy that GF cares about their fans and is giving them what they have been wanting for a while. Can’t wait to see some actual footage 😀 Hopefully they don’t look like X & Y 😐

    Reply
  425. TBH. I wonder why people started to complain about ORAS being remakes. I mean. It was kind of obvious. Everyone in the Pokemon Community wanted a remake. If it was a sequel it should have been Ruby 2 & Sapphire 2. I guess the a bit of the fan base is not satisfied. Though its their opinion. If it was a sequel. I’m guessing it would be vise versa.

    Reply
  426. So would there be a difference between it being a “remake” or a “sequel” ?
    I think it’ll be a sequel, cause of the change they gave kyogre and groudon, the mention of a “new region”, the mega latios/as, and also long ago, when the hand guide mentioned new berries not being able to be traded or something like that. I’m excited!

  429. Has anyone seen the Japanese logos of Pokemon ORAS? There is a stone on the logo! It might be what changes Groudon and Kyorge into their “new forms” or Mega Evolution!

  435. A new game would have been Way better than a remake, they can’t ruin gen 3 by making a new game because it would be entirely new, like you can’t break a dish without picking it up again… but with a remake they kind of can.. they are picking it up. But I will be happy, I have never known a Pokémon game to suck completely before

  441. When X and Y were announced, there was another 9 months until the games released. Now, there are 6 months for these remakes. That means we are at the equivalent of April for X and Y coverage, which means we should already be getting into the thick of things.
    This weekend could be something special!

    Reply
  442. I have a theory.

    Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are NOT traditional remakes, they are some form of sequel.

    Reasoning:
    Firered and Leafgreen were remakes, and their mascots were previously-known Pokemon.
    Heartgold and Soulsilver were remakes, and their mascots were previously-known Pokemon.

    Pokemon Black and White 2 were sequels, and their mascots were previously UNKNOWN Pokemon.
    Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are “remakes,” and their mascots were previously UNKNOWN Pokemon.

    WHAT DOES THIS TELL YOU? Pokemon ORAS are not your traditional remakes, and could as well be sequels, no matter what any official things so far say. We are too early in the announcement of ORAS to confirm whether or not they are remakes or sequels. I don’t care what announcements were posted, but it all comes down to the gameplay, which I feel will be altered similar to that in BW2.

    I might be crazy, but if you put the pieces together, ORAS will be different.

However, there is one piece they were right about that I refused to believe until Mega Evolutions were announced.
