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.

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.

I hope they make it so you can do battle frontier with friend online
So your Cascoon now?
Yea… I evolved
You look more like a Silcoon
Oh… Okay
Will I still i evolve to Gyradaos
Nooope
You’ll evolve into a Beautifly
NO
You can’t fight your destiny!!!
You can’t fight sableye
Oh no no no no no
This is a Rhyperior vs a Cascoon
Can’t bring outside Pokes to fight your battle
… Too far.
more like a dustox!!
Whatever he’ll evolve into some winged insect that’ll be easily squashed
XD! better bring a bag to dispose of the remains. littering is prohibited
Silcoons are white….. Cascoons are pink like her PIC…
his*
My apologies in good sir. 😉
It is okay 🙂
Will there by online Contest tournaments?!
:O YES!!!!
There will be competitive contests xD
I’d laugh if Smogon made rules and bans for it xD
It will happen XD And Frankly I wanna do competitive contests >:)
Well, that’s contests ruined, GG xD
xD Yep.
Laugh? I’d sit down, get popcorn & watch them argue over ‘Uber, OU, UU, etc…’ pokes in contests
That too xD
It’s too beautiful for OU……Uber Bannned XD
In the XY anime, Ash hasn’t even met Korrina, and HOENN HAS FINALLY BEEN CONFIRMED!!!
Something tells me that the XY Anime will last for a very, very, VERY long time! 🙂
They’ll probably promote the new games like they did in DP with HG and SS 😀
The korrina episodes have actually just been announced…
*Checks Bulbapedia*
In all the hype…who remembers anything else. LOL
SC
Still cryin
Me too, gurl, me too
So… is Hoenn related to the “neighboring region”?
Well, seeing that Hoenn is in Japan, and Kalos is France, I’d say no.
Weird how Hoenn was confirmed in May, coincidentally a main character in the Hoenn games xD
#TooLate Already said 😉
Ah well, I heard the news late xD
It was all planned. Clever Game Freak is clever.
Can I just get a quick idea here ? – mudkip, treeko or torchic ? 🙂
Treeko.
Based on those three? Mudkip!
Overall? Treecko line!
Treecko, big surprise I know
Ummmm duh, no one likes Mudkip. xD Can’t say that w/ a straight face lol
Treeeeeee
CKO!
Treecko, I suspect less interest for Torchic in general after x/y xD
Treecko!
Get Mudkip. I’d personally go Treeko, but you feel like a Mudkip guy/gal
Sorry guys shoulda been more clear I just wanted to know what us were choosing 🙂 I’ve been around way too long haha
Oh. I’m picking Mudkip. I just like Treeko more that’s all. My bro got dibs. *makes pouty face*
Nice I’ve always been a mudkip guy, but I love treeko as well. I’m fact the starters are very equal this gen for me 🙂
Guys imagine this. Normal Kyogre comes in and sets up Rain (with Drizzle). Mega Evolves and gains Swift Swim. :OOOOOOOOO
Gosh dang that’s good.
Only thing is it will be good for 4-5 turns, and be kind of useless after that.
:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Guys.
Walking with pokemon in Pal Park > Walking with pokemon everywhere in hg/ss
…
Riding lapras in x/y and riding on mamoswine > ????
We’ve officially entered another news coverage phase! But wait, what does this mean??? This is what you should expect:
Corocoro is just around the corner! Stick with us to find out if any information will be revealed(With me as your host!)!
Get TV coverage will be coming back(we are unsure about this week)!
Make sure NOT to spam the comments section with off topic conversations or extremely short/meaningless posts! Thank you all and have a wonderful day!
P.S. What new mega evolutions do you guys want in ORAS?
OMG YOU’RE RIGHT!!!
And yes, we’ll tone it down a lil 🙂
SCEPTILE MEGA NOW!!!1!!!!1
NL the crops are growing back!!!!!
Tropius, Walrein, Camerupt, Lapras and Milotic pls.
MEGA MILOTIC
UMMM Swampert, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, all fully evolved Hoenn Pkmn, etc.
ORAS? It’s official now?
Mega Sceptile, Swampert, Mightyena, Metagross, Salamence, Flygon and Exploud 😀
Swampert, Sceptile, Ludicolo, Shiftry, Linoone, Sableye, Sharpedo, Camerupt, Milotic
Steel/Normal Exploud with a new Steel Sound based move and an ability that boosts the power of sound based moves
This is a great idea!
It would literally be a Stereo
Corocoro can’t come soon enough.
I need a mega milotic or mega sharpedo. There’s so many diverse ways to do this.
Other ideas are definatly mega flygon.
Dark/Poison Mega Mightyena
Mega Flygon
Mega Metagross
Mega Sableye
Mega Starters
Mega Gallade
Mega Camerupt
Mega Sharpedo
etc xD
Complete Hoenn Starter Set,
Pseudo Legendaries.
Sableye
Solrock and Lunatone (they just need an upgrade…BADLY)
Tropius.
Milotic.
LOL. If this really does happen, then my bro’s whole team will get a Mega. 😛
I like the idea that Mega Groudon and Mega Kyogre are their awakened formed after the Red/Blue orbs activate. In RSE after Archie/Maxie used the Red and Blue orb, they kinda failed. Maybe this time it will work and make them mega :O
THIS!!
I wonder if Mega Latias/Latios will have a significant a role, or will Steven just “oh yeah I discovered these” and hand them to us lol.
This could make sense ^^ You do post game like normal with seeing one on the TV, and, after catching one, you show Steven it and he gives you the Mega Stone for it
^^^ This!
I like this 🙂
Steven thing is almost a definite thing
No, it could’ve been that they either withheld the Stones or that they didn’t get enough time to Mega Evolve, yeah… GF will make something up.
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!! This was announced a night before the biggest day of my life!!!1
Something I’ve been waiting for for a long time:
Fly becomes something like Surf. You travel the skies, search mountain tops for items, have sky battles with wild pokes & other fliers, find a floating island… Not all the time of course, love the fast transportation. Still I always wanted to see that happen since GSC
What champion do you guys want? Steven or Wallace? OR A NEW CHAMPION ALTOGETHER??!!!
I want Steven tbh
Hm…. Idk. As much as I would like Steven, I REALLY would like Brendan to take Norman’s place, passing on the role, and May to take champ.
not may because iris already filled that spot how about a double battle with brandon/ may as champions!!
Both. First Double battle champs! 😮
Steven>Wallace
But i think it will be new
Steven.
As TC suggested, a double battle with both! 😀
brandon to be the champion! ( fighting you’re former self! ;0 )
not exactly happy about this, but don’t hate it either i dont know, guess i am the only one who don’t really want a remake
Could either be a remake OR a sequel.
Sequel. Yus.
D:
Well what was your reacion to HG/SS
to be honest i was ok with it for a few reasons.1 most johto pokemon werent available before the remake(in a proper way) unlike pokemon for ruby and sapphire, so they were somewhat justified in making those remakes. 2. i guess it feels like an obvious pattern they doing especially with everybody always going hoenn confirms was ok at first but now a little annoying to me lol, so now what next game gonna be fire red/leaf green? they came after ruby and sapphire so now everybody gonna go kanto confirmed? diamond and pearl is everybody gonna go sinnoh confirmed? basically i don’t think everybody gonna give the same hype for those games because there still fresh in some minds and because all those pokemon are available which is weird to me because its ruby and sapphire who to me had to most available pokemon
I want the setting to be Hoenn, but the story/gameplay/everything to be different so you are not alone.
i just dont feel like the timing to make one is right now, maybe a few more years but that just me, but yea if everything is different then i might change opinion
How many of us want battle frontier back?
Me. Once that is confirmed….my life will be complete.
Agreed
It better have same uniqueness facilities or more (keep it unique)
I miss the Factory and Arena
Me!
All I need is Battle Factory……
Battle Factory. Whoever thought of this facility deserves a cookie.
99% of my game time of emerald was just spend here xD
Mine too
I memorized the the sets of each pokemon
same xD
I think a massive chunk of mine was spent there too. its so much fun.
I melted away so many hours in that place. Oh the nostalgia!
ME ME ME ME ME ME
OH ME!
Can’t wait to get me some of that battle pike and battle pyramid. 😉
Lucy in 3d 😀
Flannery in 3d 😀
Winona in 3D
The gyms in 3D 😀
Ok I love this! So many people from old are returning! 😀 Even some guest are commenting! Best day ever! :DDD
*leaves*
LOL JK 😛
Mega Swampert and Mega Sceptile!
Dudes look
http://i.imgur.com/R4By3gi.png
Actually those are the Omega and Alpha symbols, but it could be more
Yes. But it looks like they are some sort of Orb
Form changers like Giratina!
What about those orbs you got in Heartgold and Soulsilver?
The Red an Blue orbs are said to control the scuffling legends
Still expecting mega stones. They probably don’t have the regular design to them anymore. They couldn’t give it a black/red swirl for Groudon because Blazikenite’s look like that already.
How’s this for mega O.P just like blaziken…..
Mega Swampert …. With sap sipper. Muahahah this is just plain evil.. Sexy evil 😉
Mega Sceptile ….. Multiscale or a new ability eg “jungle shield ” – The Pokemon tales no damage from the first attack. O.o
😡 Yus on da Swampert.
Indeed 🙂
den da be naw weaknass.
I don’t think they’ll ever let a Water/Ground Type of any kind have Sap Sipper
But Jungle Sheild might be cutting it
So whynaut
Mega Sceptile Grass/Dragon Tough Claws
Mega Swampert Water/Ground Sheer Force
Id say they would as they gave an electric type levitate. 😉 it’d be disgustingly O.P in game tho.
But that’s why Tynamo is unique
But seriously would you ever want to battle a Water/Ground with Sap Sipper?
No and that’s why its hilariously overpowered 😛
Use fake out on a jungle shield 😉
Exactly but Stoll no damage therefore added effect flinch wouldn’t work and sceptile still just has his way with you 😉
So this wa on may 7th correct? one moment please….MAY. Get it? I see what you did there GF.
lol already beat ya to saying this XD
DARN IT HEAVY! LOL
#TooLate already Said 😉
So um.. i dont think we met. hullo!
Only thing that could make this better is ShinyKevin returning to us.
? What.
ShinyXatu hasn’t been on often 🙁
He commented earlier today.
:OOOOOOO Wuttttttttt
Waaaaaaaa
