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.

What Greek letter should Emerald start with?
Quick! Think of Fraternity and Sorority Names!!!!
There are no other greek letters with significant meaning that can top Alpha and Omega. 🙂
1. Beta (test)
2. Delta (force)
3. Sigma (sum, the guy from X)
4. Gamma (rays)
Gamma is associated with The Hulk, who is green, so this may be appropriate, if trollish.
Well, basing my assumption off the fact that both Kyogre and Groudon’s body are capable of forming their respective Greek symbol, Rayquaza’s body fits Theta, Omicron, and Phi quite well. My guess would be Theta Emerald

So many themes I can’t wait to hear again….but this masterpiece omfg….don’t screw it up GF D:

Trumpets trumpets trumpets trumpets ♫
trumpets trumpets ♫
trum pet pets!!!♫
What team is everyone using?
I’ll figure it out once the time comes.
You mean what Pokémon are we using in ORAS?
I have to see what we can catch on each route first. I might go for a rotating team like I’m doing for XY, but not with 24 Pokémon, because it’s too much of a pain. I’ll probably use at least 4 Hoenn Pokémon. Maybe a rotating party of 12. And none of the ones I used in XY should be there.
With Mega Sceptile pretty much certain to come, will he make an appearance in Smash as well? That would be gooooood
I was thinking of breeding a Switcheroo Noibat just for the heck of it. Then i saw the breeding chain. No thanks!
Lol. Exact same thing happened to me.
lol… you mean like this?

what?! that s exactly what i want!!
no one lieks u Groudon
omg Kyogre you r so meen!
Omg you guys stahp! D:
I took a screenshot of this
I think I laughed to hard at this xD
I laughed the moment I realized Jordin’s avatar was Rayquaza now!
I posted a picture here but it’s not working??
Groudon is ugly
What if we’re overthinking the whole Neo Groudon and Neo Kyogre thing? What if they’re just regular Groudon and Kyogre that can glow now? Maybe they glow if they use new signature moves. The Weather Trio’s the only Mascot Trio that doesn’t have signature moves. Maybe they glow if they use these new moves like how Yveltal glows when it uses Oblivion Wing.
I think it’s their Megas. You can see the difference in the pattern on their bodies 🙂
I looked deep into in title screens They glew on those body parts so i call it a throwback to it, and if they are megas, pretty bad megas
Hurrn cunfurmed is so dun.
HUUUURRRRRRNNNNN
It has been announced that ORAS are full on remakes of Ruby and Sapphire.
Wait. So if these are full remakes then that means Steven will remain the Champion. Cool by me
Just leaving this here

Mega Timezone mishap:
: I’m moving to the US . I’m leaving at 2:30 in the morning tomorrow (Which is May 9th). I’ll be going from Chennai-Bahrain, Bahrain-London and London-America. I’ll reach the US at 8:15 in the night in the US (on the same day I left).
Hmmm it says and has been confirm they ARE remakes so Steven is definitely champion
Though I really hope content from emerald appears like battle frontier
Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire are full-remakes of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. Iwata announced this today to clear up the confusion! So, no reboot/sequel of Hoenn!
:/ Okay, I’m cool with that. As much as I wanted changes to Hoenn, FOR GOODNESS SAKES IT’S HOENNNNNN <3333 Now, nothing will have changed, so we can see all the cities in ummm the 2D that's like Castelia City.
Im so glad that we know they are REMAKES and not sequels- i would love sequels but want to re-experience Hoenn in the beautiful form of XY first. You never know remakes could come next year or the year after.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I don’t think these are FULL remakes because they still have to incorporate these forms into it. I think that pretty much everything will be the same except involving Megas and these two in the plot.
Iwata confirmed they are full remakes of Ruby and Sapphire.
I am so excited… It’s gonna be great!
I can say these arent megas they are new forms called “Glow forms” it makes the pokemon glow when its holding Glowkyogre and GlowGroundon Stones, Every pokemon will have a glow form 😛
Ehhhh GF wouldn’t make these.
its a joke lol
The Item that comes inside the box is called The Pokemon Trumpet when plug into the headphone jack it can make all music played only in Trumpet
It’s confirmed that they’re full on remakes, but there’s going to be notable changes. Less water routes (or more islands).
“I remember in an Iwata Asks someone at GF mentioning that they cut down
on water routes because they confuse little kids. In that case… Hoenn couldn’t be remade with their current philosophy on region design.
I wonder if that means Hoenn will change a lot? BRIDGES!?” -Tamashii Hiroka
….
HJhbujkbvukbz.
I loved those water routes ;~;
Also, they’re going to have to incorporate the Mega/form Kyogre/Groudon into the story line.
But. There is too much water in Hoenn ._. Lol
I lieeeeek it!
Not everyone liked it. What people dislike about hoenn (I know. Shocking) is all the surfing that they have to do ._. Lol
Yeah, I would leave it tho, and lower the encounter rate, and add a variety of pokemon.
and dive battles!
and underwater horde battles as well.
Nope. I loved that part By the time you get there, it’s the perfect training ground for all your pokes (except those with water weakness, EXP share works)
I didn’t say everyone disliked it. Many did, however.
I think they were trying to show the water vs, land.
Bridges?I think they won’t change the water routes.
If anything, they’ll add more land onto the water routes, but not change them that much. ;~; I would hate for a change.
I mean, a gamefreak employee said they would. There would still be water routes, but there would be less.
I like bridges 😀
There should be an option to do both though.
D An option at the beginning of the game that says Pure Hoenn or Bridge Hoenn?
I meant like there would be bridges accessable from the water routes, but you would also still be able to surf.
The trumpets! The TRUMPETS!!!
You know, since Emerald came out around the same time as FireRed and LeafGreen, I wonder if we’ll be able to go to the Sevii islands as part of the post game? I have a feeling we probably won’t get a kanto remake in the near future so…
Well, ORAS.
If you switch the letters around, you get Rosa.
Rosa was the main female protagonist in B2W2.
UNOVA CONFIRMED!!
I meant just B2W2 lol
HURRN CUNFURMED!!
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.
Sounds plausible.
Mega versions of 2nd gen starters would look so badass since their designs are already so good!
