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
Dear Sinnoh fans: Please stop talking about Sinnoh remakes (at least until after release) and please wait your turn. Thanks. It’s killing the Hoenn vibe.
^^^
I didn’t want to be the one to say it XD
Same lmfao
I gotchu bae. 😡
Uh huh.
THANK. YOU. Sinnoh is my favorite region, aand I agree it needs to stop >.>
Dear Hoenn fans: you talked about Hoenn remakes during X and Y but you didn’t kill the hype. thank you.
No. This Sinnoh Confirmed stuff is annoying. Hoenn confirmed was because we have been waiting forever. It’s been a day since ORAS has been revealed. Wait peeps
Hoenn confirmed was pretty annoying, too and considering how long we had to hear it I believe that it was even MORE annoying.
bonquiqui would disprove.
That was after they came out :/
And we’ve been waiting for this forever, and now it just seems like you’re purposely sabotaging it, I’m sorry, I love you all, but it seems that way.
Hoenn has been speculated since HGSS. It’s nothing new. But all of a sudden Sinnoh fanboys appeared after ORAS reveal. It’s untimely and quite annoying.
Not a Sinnoh fanboy. Don’t call someone a fanboy out of nowhere.
Don’t interrupt.
Rude
-Bonquiqui at King Burger.
He didn’t. People are spouting “SINNOH CONFIRMED”even more so than Hoenn was. And it’s only been a day. Sounds fanoyish to me.
Even more so? hehe.
Because we were continuing the remake train. You guys are already moving 5 years ahead.u
I say they are being planned and are to be announced in 2017 as part of their 10 year anniversary celebration, patience is virtue!
I love Sinnoh. It’s my most favorite Region. Yet, people at least need to embrace these games!
I started the Sinnoh Hype with my Praising Cynthia again. I’m sorry. You’re right. “Sinnoh Confirmed” will have to wait its turn. For now, it’s all about Hoenn!!!
It’s cool to see you are a good sport 😀 Sinnoh will come. We must wait as long as we did for Hoenn!
Thanks for understanding. 🙂 I’ll join the Sinnoh hype when the time comes, but it’s not that time yet.
It will come. We will all joyously celebrate. Together 😀 But not now.
Sinnoh fangirl, but I agree with this post. Hoenn means a lot to others, and to me as well. Cool your jets. This has only lasted a DAY.
I’ll be cheering for SInnoh remakes too, but when it’s the proper time. After these come out. And mostly in my head, because I don’t like to be annoying.
Sinnoh in a new HD engine would be great imo. Distortion World in HD omfggggggg
My sweet darling russian stripper, have we not just spoke of this? 😉
We have? Or do you mean the HDS in general. We are gonna wait a loooooooong time for that.
I meant speaking of Sinnoh! XD
Oh. At least it isn’t “Sinnoh Confirmed”…
YESSS It will be so beautiful and strange and just just.
Catch me *faints*
Sorry sorry, just had to think of this. But seriously no more.
Thanks! 🙂
I personally hope the re-makes stop with Hoenn. Sinnoh is still playable on 3DS, I mean damn, if it ever does get re-made, it won’t be for a loooooooong time.
HDS baby
Hey. Its the new thang.
http://25.media.tumblr.com/0f019c117acf2414a75f4bd9eefaf12e/tumblr_mhttpedGG61qkg5u5o1_500.gif People when they find out there won’t be any mega’s
I’m sure it will work out in the end.
It’ll be postgame. However, there might be a select few who could still Mega Evolve pre-game.
There won’t be Megas?
Told you so again! XD
Besides it being Hoenn, one thing that makes me happy is that these games are being released worldwide like X and Y 😀
God yes. I’ve gotta preorder these when I go to preorder SSB4
til a store ruins that and release it early in one country again
GameFreak got a larger translating team! So, games could finally come out Worldwide! 😀
Suggestion! Instead of trading from XY to ORAS, why don’t we use the Bank instead?
There should be an update to make ORAS compatible!
Seeing as we can do that now (goddamn technology is awesome) I can see it happening.
No 🙁 I prefer trading.
Black and White 2:The remakes to Black and White…….Shut up now no Unova remakes:)
But…umm..Oh ok Umbre-San.
U wot m8?
Hmmm. We’re both in the Field Egg Group. I’ll have to think about it.
🙂

Wait why? They’ve done the fandom a huge favor…
And then you fork out your cash.
It’s incredibly hard to please everyone. Put yourself in GF’s shoes for a second and look at all the work they do. They try to make all of the fans happy, but we repay them by showing negativity D: Thanks to human nature, no one will ever completely be happy. What most of us wanted is finally confirmed to be released (HURRN YESSS!!) But when it’s confirmed everyone starts talking about Sinnoh while HOENN IS BEING REMADE PEOPLE!!! Point is, I think we should all be happy that GF cares about their fans and is giving them what they have been wanting for a while. Can’t wait to see some actual footage 😀 Hopefully they don’t look like X & Y 😐
I really disliked Kalos. I just thought it was too glorified.
That’s your opinion, and everyone has one 🙂
I mean, I liked the game, the pokemon. Didn’t like the region of Kalos.
That’s understandable 😛
talking about anything besides Hoenn is negativity? yeah, ok. seems legit.
No. Spamming it is annoying as shit. Especially after only a day 😛
tumblr is literally,”HAAHFHAHGAHA TRUMPETS”
Best region evur is what I keep seeing.
At least it’s hype for a new game, and not a game that will not be coming for years.
And the ironic thing is that it’s Thursday too! XD
Well not necessarily 😛 Just saying we should be happy about ORAS and as Chico said, all of the Sinnoh talk kinda detracts from Hoenn which is the main focus in the Pokemon world right now, or at least IMO.
Lol, did you read? The negativity is not based on NOT talking about Hoenn. The negativity is people hyping up Hoenn, then they nitpick why they’re dissapointed suc has the argument that it’s “an exact replica”. Which it’s not if you’ve ever played a Pokemon remake.
It’s just the hype, people. Don’t tell me that it doesn’t make you think crazy Pokemon things uncontrollably. Our love for Hoenn is not being attacked. Don’t flame me please, just my opinion XD
HURNN IS LOVE HURNN IS LIFE
*puts down flamethrower*
One does not simply put down a flamethrower.
You send a Mega Kyogre to put it out.
Why would I flame you for your opinion? D: And not really… XD I think about Hoenn and how it will look, and the music, and the gameplay, and how it’ll all play out, etc. I’m just so excited, I really can’t believe the time has come! 😀
Yay first to like a comment I didn’t read 🙂
Maybe you should read it? XD
Hasn’t gf lied to us before?
Maybe they’re lying just rustle our feathers 8)
I’ll be happy no matter what tho! 😀
TBH. I wonder why people started to complain about ORAS being remakes. I mean. It was kind of obvious. Everyone in the Pokemon Community wanted a remake. If it was a sequel it should have been Ruby 2 & Sapphire 2. I guess the a bit of the fan base is not satisfied. Though its their opinion. If it was a sequel. I’m guessing it would be vise versa.
Do you think the Hoenn E4 won’t have a set order like Unova and Kalos?
It should! 🙂
Hmmm, interesting proposal.
I would say no set order, but it’s totally up to GF
Sidney > Phoebe > Glacia > Drake, THAT’S the way it better be XD
If not, then you can chose it to be that way.
^^^^ I hate being able to pick… It’s so much easier that way. Not fun.
No. Just no super OP level steep from 48-58 pls
I hope not. Kalos and Unova E4 were so easy!
I still wanna kno what those are ._.
like are they megas?
Are they new forms?
Are they new pokemon??
We’ll find out soon enough tho.
If they really are new pokemon, Game Freak really is running out of ideas and the Genwunners win. D:
I was speaking of kyogre and groudon! XD
I meant like a failed copy (like groudon in jirachi wish maker)
New Pokemon. Nah. GameFreak is pulling what they did with Mewtwo and Kyurem. Groudon and Kyogre are just likely Megas or New Forms.
They’re going to be megas. Mega Milotic is all I really need though.
http://jerryterry.tumblr.com/post/85148542312/a-snippet-of-the-soundtrack-from-the-upcoming this is the only “NEW LEAK” thing I like.
Jesus. It’s fake.
Shrek is Love. Shrek is life.

This made my day omfg

I smell onions.
Freaking Munchlax again…

I heard something about no Megas? Or is this an over-glorified opinion?
over-glorified opinion
You hear this argument because people interpret that Hoenn remakes mean that the games are going to backtrack and not include megas. But megas are a game changing feature that are not going away. I think many megas were held for ORAS
*cough* Mega Lati@s *cough
Whoa whoa whoa. Don’t confirm anything yet bby XD
LOL, I’m not but it’s just so logical. There’s absolutely no reason for megas to not be included.
I still have a feeling that they won’t be a copy of r/s/’s plot…
Well I’ll just carry that feeling with me until the games come out.
As long as it’s the same basic plot, you’ll be okay, right? Maybe explain the teams’ origins? That kind of stuff?
I had a feeling about b/w sequels being more than just a fill in the blank sequel, and I was right! 😀
Well. As long as the game is fun, and still has the Hoenn magic, we will all be warm and fuzzy 😉
Obviously. It’s going to be a mix of R/S + Emerald. Also, lots of new elements will be added. I’m guessing an improvement to the story too!
I still have this REALLY weird feeling…
I mean, it’s not just the glowing, the glowing resembles different shapes too…
Yea. Mega evos is what they might be or a new form.
I feel like it’s when they unlock their full potential, but I mean a FULLLL potential. Where they unlock their inner beast forms (ex. the apocalyptic backround OR) I think they will be after something more than just the orbs in this game…
So would there be a difference between it being a “remake” or a “sequel” ?
I think it’ll be a sequel, cause of the change they gave kyogre and groudon, the mention of a “new region”, the mega latios/as, and also long ago, when the hand guide mentioned new berries not being able to be traded or something like that. I’m excited!
Nintendo already confirmed that it’s a remake. XD
If you’re using a Gen IV-VI pokémon in your ORAS Team, then who are you most excited to use? For me, it’s Aegislash.
Honestly, none unless they are in the actual maingame PokeDex.
I’m going to use a…Mismagius. Because why the heck not.
Get that Dusk Stone ready to trade, because I have a feeling that Sinnoh Evolutionary Stones will be disabled again until the the games are beaten.
Garchomp.
It’s probably Dusknoir, but only because Dusclops (a gen 3 dude) evolves into it.
TheFlashzap on Youtube huh, Earthen?
his first vid is yukee :,c
Found his comment on Pokémon XY anime Episode 26. XD
I found it in a grotle vs rhyperior vid! 😀
will the E4 member use different pokemon this time and will they use the fully evolved pokemon or the middle stage like dusclops and will they use megastones?
http://www.impeal.leafo.net/images/shrek_v_brown.gif Charlie Brown leaked in OR/AS!
Has anyone seen the Japanese logos of Pokemon ORAS? There is a stone on the logo! It might be what changes Groudon and Kyorge into their “new forms” or Mega Evolution! I’m guessing that it is a new forms because of these stones. Also, the stones have the Omega and Alpha symbols. I guess we just have to wait and see! (Refresh to see the Logos.)
The Japanese Logos look so much more colorful and dynamic…
JP logos are always better than American ones… 🙁
Those stones with omega and alpha symbols on them are ruby and sapphire respectively. I don’t think they have anything to do with Mega Evolution, but who knows?
Hopefully those new stones for Kyogre and Groudon are all we get. Seems like it, because I can’t imagine Alpha and Omega Pokemon. Just…no.
WAIT. What if the red and blue orbs are those mega stones? :O
That’s what I said! XD
Oh it is? I honestly can’t refresh either, so if it’s in the photo, I apologize. You didn’t specify what stones though… XP
“Has anyone seen the Japanese logos of Pokemon ORAS? There is a stone on the logo!” XD Kind of did! It’s fine! 🙂
True! xD
Grotle sounds like a mixture of groin and fondle okay no more of that
Grotle is one of those Pokemon that you forget about 99.9% of the time.
and maractus.
And Cherubi.
NOOOOOBODY FORGETS-
Nobody forgets about Cherubi.
I did. Then the evolved form then.
That’s true, I forget about Cherrim a lot. The sun form is not even the normal form.
And Prinplup. omfg that thing is so ugly
I i kik dat ho out da windows so da stank go too
Empoleon was a boss ass bitch tho
Thats why I chose piplup!! <3
It’s funny how you mention its uglieness. Because I read that the writer of the Anime didn’t want Dawn’s Piplup to evolve because he’s look ugly.
It is lmfaoooooooo. And because he was ugly for contests. Although, in the games, I used Garchomp for contests, and put a pink bow on it, and won xD
Grovyle is the only 2nd stage starter that is memorable. (And also the coolest.)
I liked Monferno a lot. I always evolved Chimchar before I got to Oreburgh and it just stuck out to me.
ANime boi it fought for it’s love!!
IT’s because of the Anime isn’t it?
And Mystery Dungeon Explorer of Time/Darkness.
And Rhyhorn.
You better hope Earthen isn’t here lmfao
Only you would think of that Djja Rochelle The Third.
There is t in fondle, however…
e_e
I hope a Dialga and Palkia will be available after the game. you know, just cause.
Oh and a Larvitar before the 6th gym leader.
I’m okay with that. Or maybe Metang :3
“Just cause”. I like your reason.
I make the the best reasons.
Serena will get a treecko calling it now.
What’s your reasoning?
Wynaut?
Take a crazy chance!
May> squirtle
Dawn>Cyndaquil
Serena > Treecko
(refresh)
Thank you :,)
When will Ash catch another Pokémon…? DANG >,<
Forget Ash, when will Serena catches one? >.<
NEVER!!!!!!!!!!
She’ll SO catch Hawlucha!
seriously doubt that like 99%
Then who will? Ash has got plenty so far and one bird that lacks character development until it evolves. And Clemont’s got enough character development already. Also, he has a small army of Electric types waiting at his gym.
why does someone have to catch it? in a poster?
That and it’s in the Klefki short with Pikachu and the others.
still can’t see it with her, but possibly because they have such small selection
When he stops sucking. -___-
It’s only been 26 episodes and 1 upcoming movie. You expected him to have four already?
As much as I don’t want Mega Evolutions to be a highlight in this game, you guys know how much I want to see a Mega Xatu. So…I guess I’ve been a little bit contradictory? XD
(Reveals Mega Xatu in CoroCoro this weekend).
NO GOD PLEASE
KILL ME SLOWLYYYYY
LOL
Xatu=Jhoto 🙁
It was in the Safari Zone
BUT Xatu is used by Tate and Liza. And gym leader rematches means a possibility! And Xatu is (or was) in the Safari Zone.
:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I know. We can only hope.
