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
I don’t watch the anime. whats going on in the pokemon anime?
Told everyone who thought megas were only for X and why they were crazy.. didn’t wanna believe me..
Why would they honestly create and hype up this huge new mechanic, only for it to never return?
exactly
i just hope they include real evolutions for pokemon like heliolisk, sharpedo and other who just looks incomplete, megas are fine if they are used on pokemon who needs stats buffs like tropius
I;ve grown to accept Heliolisk on its own. Although, I;’ll never forget the first disappointment of seeing it…
I like its look, I just dislike its abilities
Dry Skin + Thunder + Rain Dance is surprisingly useful tho
All power without stats to live though
When X and Y came out they seemed so fresh and new, now they feel old and dirty. But thats just me.
NO MORE NEGATIVITY NO MORE NEGATIVITY NO MORE NEGATIVITY !
IF YOU HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO SAY, SAY NOTHING AT ALL.
THE MORE WE CRITICIZE, THE LESS WE’LL ENJOY.
So please, only good things now.
WE FINALLY GOT HOENN!! 😀
3D AND UPDATED GRAPHICS!!!
HOENN IN 3D!!!
UPDATED MUSIC!!!
BATTLE FRONTIER!!
YAYY!!!
i just hope they change the e4 teams:(
And the level spike.
They were really good! 😀
Wasn’t the Hoenn E$ just the best?
Pheobe was so beautiful
And Drake was refreshingly strong! 😀
phoebe had 2 dusclops and banette glacia had 2 glalie and sealeo back on the day they didnt have many but now i hope they have more diversity and they use their final evolutions and megas!
Lol 2 dusclops and two glalies!!
It was double trouble!!!
They did take lots of skill though! 😀
you didnt know which dusclops had what moveset so that was kinda fun
Just add evolite! XD
Upgrade Glacia
Upgrade Glacia
Upgrade Glacia
Glacia was fun!!!:D
give her a glaceon and frosslass and lapras and avalugg and jynx
Maybe, for you crazy Sinnohnians, we could get Sinnoh starters post-game. Just because…Professor Rowan visits Hoenn! Sure! 😀
And they finally get their HAs released!
piplup baby come to me
That would be my choice in Alpha 😀
Turtwig in Omega because that game will be my trial of Treecko!
I honestly want the Johto starters :3
Not like it really matters though. Let’s be honest, we all bred enough of those to sustain an entire developing country.
Yeah. But I like the Johto starters alot, and they were given to you in Emerald. Although postgame 😛
It’s the most probable decision 😀
Which starter? for me… mudkipz.
…
[Boutique implied]
My God no.
I hated May’s Emerald outfit, so if that’s her default I’d take the first opportunity to change her out of it… 😀
Is that real?
no, of course not…
Something to drool over tho 😀
That’s a cool edit! I can imagine it all now…
Such three dots.
Many suspicion.
Much mystery.
Wow.
K I’ll refresh.
Okay then.
I thought you were confirming Regigigas…
And this was all a late April fools prank XD
What. If. O_O
NO………………
I would want a nuclear bomb. You know why.
I would stab myself.
Multiple times.
No.
I can’t think of that.
Please.
No.
Sakurai: “What about Zero Suit Samus you say? Unfortunately, she’s not going to participate in this iteration of Smash Brothers.”
…
…
…
…
…
“Nah, I’m only kidding.”
SAKURAAAAAAAAIIII! XD
I never knew he said there would be no ZSS
He did, in the Smash Direct. 🙂
Bad Tyranitar.
Don’t you utter those words.
(refresh)
I don’t understand it, after all this amazing news, People are being so… doubtful on the game. They are putting a lot of work into this one, and considering they have 2 separate teams for Pokemon production, they probably have been working on this for a long time, stay positive and don’t act disappointed, or you really will be 😀
Agreed.
This is something many people fail to be aware of. There are different teams that work on different games. This hasn’t been rushed.
Same with X and Y. I bet this was being made during the same 4 years of X and y.
Yeah, I wouldn’t doubt it at all.
That’s kinda why I ignore people who say XY was rushed. Because they have been working on XY for longger than a year. (More than 3 years, I think? I dunno I forgot)
4 years. A lot of work was ut into it’s new engine, over 1000 models for battle AND Amie, the cutscenes and plot. And even PSS.
Geeze. Even longer than I thought.
Still, I just hate that comment of ‘Oh, so and so was rushed’ when clearly it took years of development. Sure, there are some things that didn’t work out, but they tried their best and tried to make it work.
X and Y felt like I was playing Platinum and Blue all over again with that same awesome feeling of pride, power, and nostalgia.
Exactly. And that storyline to me was perfect. Nothing bad to me at all about that story. Except endgame, but what can you do?
It’s why I constantly want to replay it. And try to tell myself to stop, and fail, every time.
The competitive battling is what makes it last.
Sadly, I don’t partake in competitive battling, but that is just me. The casual Pokemon fan. Who tries to motivate herself to learn and fail every time.
I don’t do it super competitively either., but I do like to battle with my friends competitively.
I sure am not! Quite the Contrary, actually. I don’t want them to overuse the “easy shiny chances” and Mega Evolution and Omega and Alpha and Goomy knows what else to the extent where Hoenn is the new Kalos. Sustaining childhood, if you will.
Even if they do use it a little, they are appealing to this new generation of kids that act like brats if they don’t get what they want -.-, “I WANT I WANT I WANT” its the me me me generation… I can’t stand it
“Why can’t I ever find a shiny”, uh maybe because they are rare, and you are NOT SUPPOSED TO FIND THEM that easily
XY would disagree.
That is what I am saying, appealing to the mememe generation
That’s what made shinies all the more special!
I still haven’t found one in XY.
I’m so sad. But I don’t complain. I’ll treasure that first shiny, thank you very much.
I have two shinies, I’m proud 😀
I have… 122 >…>… I actually hunt them XD
I just chain fished for Skrelp and Poliwag.
Wait, hold up. That username sounds familiar.
Yes?? 😀
Yes, it does. Is it actually you guys or just a fan?
IT is actually me ^-^! I stalk pokejungle a lot XD
I am the younger twin though (if that counts) XD
Holy sh!t no way! xD I watch your shiny hatch/encounter videos, lmfao.
:D!, I am currently hatching Omanyte
I think I’ve watched some of your stuff…not sure though.
Good luck! 😮 Wow, this is so cool! 😀 (can I tell you a secret? :o)
Sure
Back in December I was MM for a Shiny Honedge for over a month (over 1,100 eggs), so to pass the time I watched some of your videos and every time you had a new one I said to myself “F*ck you guys, I want that kind of luck” xDDDDDDD <3
Lol!! A lot of people have told me that 0..0
Yepp. Omg, you need to meet @heavymetallamb:disqus because he’s the shiny champ here on PJN. It’s really cool seeing you here though! 🙂
Can he beat the fact I own 122?
Probably if he tried hard enough XDDDDDDD
Hmm, not sure but I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he could challenge that. He’s pretty OP himself.
That is just me, my brother owns 135 XD
WOW. I have like 10 (found in wild) and 3 MM IV bred. The only shinies I have that are significant to me would be Manectric, Milotic, and Aegislash (the 3 IV breed ones). :3
How many does he have??
Wait a second. I WATCHED YOUR STUFF. 😀
Have you 0…0??
As a matter of fact I have XD
Nice to see ya here!
Cool, I have to change my profile pic to my youtube one.
Should the Friend Safari return and replace Hoenn’s Safari?
Both?
GUYS. IT WAS ALL PLANNED.
What?
Do you see the picture?
The one you posted? 😀
NO the one that says Hoenn Confirmed and has a map of Kalos and a Kyogre.
Ohh
where?
ABOVE. <:|
It shows Jirachi too, I believe.
And the whole time we were seeing a Jirachi. Works too though.
“Please understand…”
A new game would have been Way better than a remake, they can’t ruin gen 3 by making a new game because it would be entirely new, like you can’t break a dish without picking it up again… but with a remake they kind of can.. they are picking it up. But I will be happy, I have never known a Pokémon game to suck completely before
pokemon dash
Pokemon Stadium 1 🙂
no.
nore moar negativity.
it’s just my honest thought… ( -_-) not being negative
[negative thoughts]
Don’t do this.
And don’t underestimate the power of Nintendo.
do what ???? ( -_-)
Maybe we should…
…Wait until we see a second of gameplay footage to criticize anything or claim anything as fact. Maybe. Speculation can be fun, though. But doubt is another story.
the only “doubt” is that a new game would have been better than a remake.. unless they make both now then it will always be up to opinion
I’d agree.
Although I bet the games will be AMAZING.
Can we get Orre Sequels while we’re at it?
pls
Okay goodnight!!
Hoenn in 6 months!!!!! 😀 <33
Sleep for 6 months pls
Goodnight Djja you silly Chespin you. 🙂
Goodnight, dream of ORAS.
I wonder how this’ll affect the competitive scene.. Will you guys be transferring your competitive pokes to ORAS? Or keep them in XY?
Depends on what they add and what you can transfer to X and Y and ORAS.
Did the competitive scene move from DP to HGSS back in 4th gen?
I think so. Not sure though, I became a Pokemon fan when Gen. 5 was huge ;~;
My X is the unit I bring to all local tournaments.
My Y has the friend safaris. 🙂
I Don’t battle competitvely.
COME ON COROCORO
WE NEED YOU
PLEASE
SAVE US FROM THE MISERY
FEED US NEWS
FEED US
JUST SPOON-FEED ME IT.
ANYTHING.
IT CAN JUST BE ONE TINY SCREENSHOT.
JUST PLEASE.
*sings “Where Are You Christmas” from The Grinch, but replaces “Christmas” with “Coro Coro”*
Has anyone considered the fact that maybe we’re not going to Hoenn.
Probably sounds stupid, but how do Greek Letters play into a Japan-based region?
Full remake=no drastic changes=hoenn.
Pokemon Logic.
Alright guys, good night. Hopefully we get some more news or even Pokebeach leak-style news tomorrow 😉
GUYS HOENN CONFIRMED
Really?!?! Where?!?!?! lol
What, no way. This can’t be real.
That’s what I said
I dunno. Those boxarts look Photoshopped. And no other info? Calling it a fake.
APRIL FOOLS IS OVER, TROLL. THEY WON’T GIVE IT TO US THIS EARLY
Goodnight guys.
Goodnight one and all. Pleasant Dreams.
