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.
FEATURED DISCUSSION: Hidden Ability Trade Shop










When is CoroCoro? I DON’T THINK I’LL HANDLE MY FEELINGS LONG ENOUGH FOR IT. I DREW THIS WHILE I WAS GOING CRAZY YEAH
allegedly might be leaking this weekend
😀 (refresh)
I said the same thing below, I’m betting on the 12th 🙂
I hope it is as soon as possible. Can’t hold muh feels.
If Mega Zygarde is missing from this game (and his new moves) than I’ll be expecting Emerald Z LOOOL
That would be, quite frankly… AWESOME
Pokémon don’t learn moves through Mega Evolution tho. I think Thousand Arrows/Thousand Waves will work sort of like Kyurem’s Glaciate and Scary face changed to White/Black Kyurem’s respective moves upon changing forms? But instead of Glaciate/Scary Face, the move changing into one of these would be Earth’s Wrath?
I never said it’s mega will get new moves. I said it will get new moves tutored, thousand waves on omega, thousand arrows on alpha
1 mega, 2 new moves (by tutor)
Now only Half Life 3 is needed to be confirmed.
pokejungle is getting like it was when X and Y were announced! YES! also, GF plz fix Lag. Thank You.
Gonna take some time getting used to writing Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, considering I got so used to just writing X and/or Y lately. LMAOO
Or I can just stick with ORAS xD
ORAS has OR in it, like ORre! ORRE REMAKES CONFIRMED
LMFAOOOOO xDDDD
KALOS CONFIRMED
Wait a minute! If you rearrange ORAS you get SORA! Kingdom Hearts 3 confir……wait….
omg I love you guys xDD
POKEMON x KINGDOM HEARTS! YES
OR SORA FROM DIGIMON
Anyone…
lmao! i doubt they will remake that
Digimon Digital Monsters Digimon are the champions!
….Wait no….
IT’S STUCK IN MY HEAD!!
Changed my name.
Haters gonna hate.
Refresh.
Nope
Yes
I think not
I think so
Kyogre-er djja :3
Kyogreunt actually
heh.
Thousand αrrows
Thousand ωaves
told you guys XD
Nice! Maybe they’ll be in these games then?
I think so too. Bulbapedia says Groudon/Kyogre destroy the ecosystem, Zygarde monitors it.
That was Chaos! XD
It didn’t click me with me where he was playing at until I looked at the greek alphabet lol
@disqus_DD3HNtN9xO:disqus
okay I’m new here. Hello pokemon fans!
Hi!
HIIIIIIII! 😀
You get a big warm welcome from me! 😀
Hello
I lowered your attack by 2
you’re menacing now, boy 😉
You it gurl
You know it gurl*
And I used… “Lance of Atrophy”
Hi Canada guy! 😀
is that my nickname now? “Canada guy”
Yes.
Oops sorry 😛
Its fine.
I’ve been called worse >.>
Ooh do tell…
Imma call ya Clement
Why?
Clement is this Canadian Let’s Player on youtube. I’m not really gonna call you that BTW.
Call me… Seymour. thats that.
Hey! 😀
Hai!
Twerk.
:O
Multiple twerks.
I’m lovin it.
da da da da da
It goes right to the,
Twerking area.
If secret bases really do have wi-fi capabilities, Pokemon Y is never going into my 3DS again
lol kill dat y
The only reason I’m ever putting Y back into my 3DS might be to transfer my trained pokémon to the bank and then to Omega Ruby.
I maxed out its time already, won’t feel any guilt leaving it. 😀
I kinda gave up on it. There isn’t much to do after the Looker side thing.
Same XD
yeah, I agree. when compared to the past games X and Y were sorta disappointing.
XY were sort of rushed imo. If they did that to XY in like 9 months, I wonder if ORAS won’t be even more rushed in 6?
Unlike Kalos, Hoenn is an already established region. that is if we go back to Hoenn, of course.
These games have likely been in development for years, and are just getting announced now. They already have all the Pokemon models done from X/Y, so really the hardest part is out of the way. I’m sure they’ve used feedback from X/Y to implement and polish off ORAS 😀
RIP Kalos. We had a good run. :'(
But But Fennekin
And the story.
And And And I can’t help it.
*sobs and restarts it again*
That is why I can never stop replaying Pokemon games.
I think of the positives and then I’m like
‘Oh look, playing it again, awesome, glad I kicked the habit’
If you look at Team Magma and Aqua’s logos, you can see omega in the bottom of the M and well, Alpha in the A.
IMM BACK FroM a loNG college time blehh
College? Yuck! I love college! soory I’m a bit bipolar tonight after hearing about ORAS

Oh i think you know
*Deep voiced in Slow Motion*
Aaaaaa Siiiiiiillllcoooooooooonnnnna Mwahahahahahahhahah*
You’re just jellicent of me because i am more agile than your big self, I actually evolved naturally, How did you even evolve you can’t even trade yo self
Silcoon barely move
And for your information
I WAS BORN A RHYPERIOR
#1. I aint no dang Silcoon so you need to get yo eyes checked because how you gonna shot “Rock Wreckers” when you cant even see
#2. You weren’t born no dang Rhyperior you should be ashamed of yourself for lying to yourself. You need to embrace what you are. Someone who can’t be me in a pokemon battle
Hmmmm you maybe right on the second one but i’ve endured the hardships to become the Powerhouse i am today
But as for my eyes, I don’t need to see (I just fire Rock Wreckers and Rock Blasts blindly and without hesitation) and i wouldn’t have to try hard to hit a Silcoon u can barely move, basically a sitting Ducklett
but still
lol
bubble
HOLD MY ERRINGS
THIS BOY WANT ME TO WHOP HIM

Big deal, with that mins two attack and my hardens you ain’t doing anything to me so you better watch yourself unless you won’t me to beat you in a battle
Switches in my shiny Unaware Bibarel.
ROTLMFAO I keep forgetting how mean people over at Serebii’s is.
I was in their chat room… people were discussing mega latias. Someone said “i never faced one on PSS before but if i i did i’d ruin it”…. So I typed “pfft you wouldnt damage mine”, 1 person goes “omg you have one”, and i said yeah… the next 10 replies looked like this:
“worthless”
“pathetic”
“f****** noob’
“hacker, taking out all the fun”
“someone kick this guy”
“people like you is why we can’t have nice things, like Azure flute”
People their are so mean and hateful, let me do what I wanna do with my cartridge lol. I did have a good laugh though
What is this ORAS?
new game set in the orange islands XD
Omega ruby ALpha sapphire
Oh lol. A BTW, a few hours before your arrival, I predicted you coming. xD
I smelt da hurrn in da air
Sora spelt incorrectly?
Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire?
How did I not tell? xD
Orange Rain Apple Sauce. It’s code.
mmmm… apple sauce.
Orange rain?
not a big fan of oranges.
Could be rain of Orange soda or Orange colored rain.
mmm… orange pop!
Read this wrong.
what do you mean? popsnackles? poop? snap crackle pop?
Orange poop?
Opportunities rage across sun
These games make you realize that X and Y were 3DS test games.
For GF.
All first Pokemon games on new consoles are “Test” games.
But usually they are spin-offs, not main steam games.
Pokemon Gaben Newell version confirmed
Ok??
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
I hope so. Gen VI was so rushed the overworld looked like a regular DS game and the battles nearly crashed the cartridge when you turned 3D on.
“the overworld looked like a regular DS game” You’re kidding.
I do agree with the lag issue though.
I’m not. A lot of older 3DS games look a lot prettier than that.
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.
Since Disqus hasn’t been working for me… ddja, what was your reaction to all this?
lol
words cant
Tears. Real tears.
a horde of wailord has appeared..
ARM THE HARPOONS!!!!!!
Illegal Wailording
CUE THE LAG!
swab the poop decks secure the SKITTYS!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZEtHikV1mE
Get the Skitty!!
Sooo, like people said below, we can expect leaked images by tomorrow right? I need my pokemon fix!
Usually CoroCoro leaks around the 11th. If you’re referring to that, then maybe it’s a bit too early. 🙂
But….but I have exams on the 12th AND 13th D: I’ll have to study DX
That sucks 🙁
One peek at Pokejungle for a minute won’t hurt. 🙂
okay bye guys today has been craycray
bye… djja.
Bye gurl :>
Dija is a girl?!
Bye, you beautiful Hoenn Fanboy you!
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 sorta thought it was a joke cause it was posted on a friends website =P
considering the cases do kinda look like fan made cases I don’t blame you.
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.
Honestly i wan’t excited when first saw the Announcement
More of a Shocked and Stunned kinda feeling
I feel like its still fake, My body is still trying to accept this.
Brandon, get out.
But Hurrn :'(
But school ;~; and wuurrk ;~;
Um wut is that lol. I’m getting my pokem-on
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
I said get out.
2edgy4me
LOL
Yep. Didn’t I tell everybody a few weeks ago?
“isn’t it odd that all the XY events end on Sept 30 of this year, is something big going to happen in October”
and look what happened.
Darkrai, Diancie, Celebi, all of them end on Sept 30.
Just like Shiny Dialga/Palkia/Giratina ended in september before XY was released in October.
And then that’s when the Latios/Latias event will start. (version exclusive)
Transfer them to ORAS to unlock an event where you get their mega stones!
I think the Lati’s will be encounterable in game, as well as their mega stones, and not be some crack pot events.
The event I see being distrubuted the week of Omega/Alpha release is Faraway Island Ticket, to take us to get Mew.
and then mew gets a mega! :3
Did you leave yet? 😛
GF: What’s next on the agenda?
Random: Uh, GameFreak…..you realize you didn’t talk about the event Pokemon right? What are we gonna do about that?
GF: …..OH MY GET THE PRESS HURRY WE HAVE TO GET THIS OUT FLING IT AT THEM GO GO GO!!
Random:*dies of stress*
….What did I just do? I’m obviously out of it…..stupid chorus practice…
Ok now leave and start work work work work working on your shhhhhiet
Goodnight sexy fellow Groudoners!
(And you less sexy Kyogreunts!)
I’m not going to be able to sleep tonight due to all of this!!
did you just call me sexy?
OH NO YOU DI-IN’T.
What about the sexiest of them all – the Rayquazanites
No game
No sexy
No remakes
Less than no sexy
ouch!…….Good thing I’m a Groudoner amirite? 😀
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.
Hoopa will most likely be in the last kalos movie. ya know with the gen 7 rep. and all.
Ahh I totally see that happening. I know for sure Zygarde will be the star of his own movie in 2015, year of the emerald.
