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










Arceus looked with pity at our website activity and said: “Give them news.”
And so it happened.
Like that other guy said… a Drought of news, then a Flood of informaton…
Does that mean Groudon is the devil and Kyogre is our saviour?
Maybe, maybe… 🙂
Alpha and Omega could also symbolize the geograpgical structure of Hoenn or your journey to the elite 4.. You begin on land and end at that big waterfall in Evergrande city.. Really unlikely tho haha
LoL, my PC is heating up. Can’t handle the hype!
Really hope a LOT of other characters use Megas. Kinda boring that you only face three people with Megas in X/Y
Please tell me you can get togapi in honen
this is a whole new world. it’s not following the same old stuff anymore so it could be available.
Oooh but was togapi in the last ruby and sapphire game
I dont think so
Nooooooooooooo
ITS TIME FOR A CHANGE
God dammit oh well its back on the hype train for me
that doesn’t matter because it has a chance of being in this one. It’s not following the same plot or wild pokemon.
Guys we’re not going to Hoenn…
We’re going to CREATE HOENN
I’m imagining all the reorchestrated music.. Oooh boy
Need modest porygon
On a different note:
Weird that they give us Hoenn before Volcanion & Hoopa. Are they supposed to make an appearance there? SHIT! Just realized Volcanion is Fire/Water, if you think hard enough you can fit in somewhere in the Groudon-Kyogre mix up! Hype!
Mega lati@s, no maybe? Just me?
Definitely there somewhere! They’re the region’s roaming legends!
Maybe we won’t get lati mega stones as a event but as an ingame item, don’t forget that they’re probably the same so that there’s no favouritism over the roaming I dunno
Which gives the answer why so quickly lol
“Released in November 2014” it’s not actually that far away considering x and y was a year away for us
there has been a mainstream game every year since 2009.
2009: Platinum
2010: HeartGold/SoulSilver
2011: Black/White
2012: Black2/White2
2013: XY
2014: Alpha & Omega
I know, just 6 months of painstaking speculation this time!
Welcome to the 75th annual Speculation games! best of luck and may the predictions be ever in your favor!
I wonder if there would be a toast pokemon
Screw that! burn it to the ground muhahahah
Settle down cinna
There is just so many questions unanswered
-Where’s the X and Y Remakes
-Officially announcing the Event Legends
-Why now and out of the blue
-why
–
Its Nintendo, why question it
They’ll probably be part of the new Hoenn storyline. Volcanion fits somewhere in with Groudon & Kyogre. Hoopa I don’t know where… Lat@s should be the roaming legend with a deeper plot that ends with you getting it’s Mega stone
Diancie & Volcanion are wondercard events. Hoopa will probably be in Omega & Alpha. And what do you mean XY remakes? I don’t see those happening til atleast 2024
Wow, that’s far. Wonder what kind of tech the remake would be on?
lmfao the nintendo 6DS
Pls no more Mega’s ;3; please make these form changes
nope. those are a thing of the past. megas are the new mechanic. they’re going to capitalize on it.
Thank god I hope it’s move related
I’m super hyped for the new games, but the use of Alpha and Omega worries me a little. It makes it seem like its going to be the last installment of the games. I’m sure it won’t be, but its just something to think about.
they won’t be. I believe the “beginning and the end” refers to 3000 years ago (when the war happened) and whats happening now. Putting an end to whatever is happening now.
Anyone notice the games are PEGI 7+ while RSE where 3+? Interesting…
I think they advise against giving the 3ds to kids in case it screw up their eyes
That’s why the slider and 2DS exist.
I forgot about that. maybe it will be a pokemon version of grand theft auto and they weren’t even going to kid themselves about who the target audience was
Technically, the US site shows the games as Rating Pending. But which organization said 7+? Maybe we can get some info of their rating? These websites usually lists the reason the rate the games
It’s in the EU version on youtube…
This is a dark remake of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire
There’s already a wikipedia page on the games 😀
Love the internet!
Wonder where it’ll fit in the timeline..
Side by side comparison:

It’s not a drastic mega evolution change, but I mean look at Mega Ampharos and Mega Aerodactyl.
I’m telling you its not a mega its a Primal Form
Or some kind of empowered form
yeah… empowered forms are known as Mega’s… XD
Its a hidden inner strength brought out through a DNA infused stone and a bond of a Trainer and His/Her Pokemon
Look at Primal Dialga. Not much of a change, only different color and pattern (slightly). But damn powerful, even if it lost its mind in the process
OMG OMG OMG I came(both interpretations) when I saw the reveal OMG OMG
Hurren
I can see it, people in future calling it pokemon OR and AS
Sounds like “Auras”
Link to X&Y confirmed?
NO X AND Y CAN GO FCK OFF, hoenn is where the party is at
YES ALL OF MY YES
I believe the fact that Alpha & Omega are A and Z in the greek alphabet (referring the the king of Kalos, AZ) means that these games are going to be related to XY.
AZ would be in Hoenn still looking for Floette maybe? Which would put it before the events of X and Y
Eterna Flower Floette in Eterna City perhaps?
And also the fact that Omega and Alpha also means “Beginning” and “the end” could mean that 1 game could be a prequel and one game could be a sequel. i just have a feeling both games will be drastically different
Floette came back tho
Nvm xD
NUH UH, zygarde will get a little mentioning but pls no, rayquaza man, rayquaza
Rayquaza was the person of the old storyline. This is a whole new world as the trailer stated so it will follow a new plot. Zygarde monitors the ecosystem and Groudon/Kyogre destroys the ecosystem 0_0
XY continued in Hoenn region LOL. It’s coming bro.
I’m also happy that the games are being released at the same time again. It’s going to be funny hearing the leaks and reveals of people who get the games early LOL. I still remember that Smoker guy.
SO HYPED
OMG jirachi and deoxys will be available again!
HYYYYYYYYYYPE
WAS THIS A SURPRISE REVEAL WAS IT HINTED AT BEFORE???
Quote this one if you were also 13 (or around 13) when Ruby and Sapphire came out! These games are Ruby and Sapphire 2.0!
I was 8 but yeah lol
I was that age as well!!! Had Sapphire! Great times.
The best times
I forgot how old I was then! But I was olldddd 🙂
Ruby & Sapphire were me and my bros second poke’ games! And the first ones we actually beat the elite 4 in! SO many memories!
Probably was 10-11 at the time of release. I actually had my aunt buy us the games long before we bought a GBA! Good times
We grew up with Pokemon (those were my third gen!), and still being just 24 I’m not ashamed still being a fan and playing now and then (Pokemon Y)
I’m 13 now!
