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.

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 so. Just as people were thinking the the jungle was on the verge of dying, it was hit by the Kyogre waves of remakes and awesomeness.

    • In june corocoro will have news about hoenn I expect these games could be both prequel and sequel XD Alpha sapphire(prequel) and omega ruby( sequel)!Like the beginning(alpha) and the ending(omega). And we will have for sure mega kyogre and mega groudon.

  5. 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?

  6. 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).

      OMFG AZ 0_0

  12. 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

  13. 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.

      • 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

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