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.

          • ““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.”

  3. 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. 🙂

  4. Honestly, I believe “Alpha Kyogre” is Water/Electric. Maybe just me, but look at the huge blobs of light and the Alpha symbol on Kyogre.

    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

    • Named my Sableye Zilus Zox after a red lantern. Red Lanterns represent rage. Sableye piss people off and make them rage dump.

      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.

      Shedinja is Ryuk, named after the shinigami from deathnote.

      Ninjask is Ryu, named after the dude from Ninja Gaiden.

      Marshtomp is Noel.Just because.xD

      (Btw, this is my current sapphire playthrough team)

      • I’ll probably call my Aron (If I get one) Auron. anyone who gets the reference can have a non existant cookie.

          • Sweet. Noel was actually named after Noel from FF Xiii-2 But i don’t really know why. It just fit. Named my entire team after FF characters.

            Caius the Nidoking
            Vanille the Gardevoir
            Noctis the Shiny Noivern
            C’ieth the Metagross
            Noel the Swampert
            and Mog the Whimsicott

            I also named a Cofagrigus Occuria and named a Shiny Absol Yeul.

          • 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.

  9. The level of my weekend heart attack is dependant upon the intensity of information that is leaked.

          • Yes! I thought you knew? (You’re, I think, the last to know)
            GIVE THEM TO ME BY THE BILLIONS!!

          • I honestly did not know. Jeez. Sorry about that. 🙂
            That completely changed my way of thinking, okay.
            I’m late on knowing XD
            You haven’t been on in so long.

          • It’s fine. My gender don’t matter. Pokemon fan is my gender.
            There. No more confusion.
            No, I’m still the same, I swear! And so am I, like, don’t expect me to know things sometimes. I’d be like ‘….Have you seen me know about things first? Unless it’s Pokemon related. And even then.’ But I guess people think I know everything.
            And true. I totally thought everyone would be like ‘Oh new member. *totally forgot*’ So no worries :3

          • I’ll start a club. The Last-to-Know club. Theme song: Last to Know by Three Days Grace. (It’s kinda stuck in my head so yeah…even thought it’s totally not related to this type of last-to-know)

    • What I want: Everything
      What I thinks gonna happen: Gameplay trailer with two new mega evolutions.

  12. From now on I will refer to these games as “ORCAS.”
