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.

OMFG DIVING CONFIRMED! ITS GONNA BE SO BOOTYFUL
And underwater grass (seaweed)!!
Here come the Skrelp!
underwater Horde’s known as school’s. “A school of carvanha attacked you” and one of the 5 carvanha has speed boost.
i just realized something….. due to the fact that x and y had 69/70 pokemon are they saving some pokemon for omega ruby and alpha sapphire?
this could be the case.
if they bring in new pokemon saved from x and y or they might leave it how it is
To those who’ve played Hoenn, was Drake difficult to beat? Assuming he comes back as an E4 member, we could all DESTROY HIM WITH FAIRIES!!!! >:D
Dragon Claw Flygon & Ice beam Swampert all the way!
Hmm it’s interesting the wording used I definitely wouldn’t be surprised if this wasn’t a standard remake yet something more ambitious ie new story/events/areas etc!
I don’t believe we’ve met. I’m UberMawile, and welcome to PJN!
Caitlin’s been here a while xP
I see. LOL. I haven’t been here for a while.
Yes haha I usually am very inactive in terms of commenting when there is no big news/hypehypehype but this announcement is just what I needed to get back into it! 🙂
Until the XY release, in fact.
Gamefreak will surprise us, as always :). It’s possible this could span 2 regions!
COROCORO COMES OUT IN 4-6 DAYS!!!
HYPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
HYPE TRAIN!!!
expect news/leaks by friday, saturday morning at the latest
I’m going to be in a flight all Friday…. *sighs*
Everyone’s talking about Mega/Primal Groudon and Kyogre, and I’m just sitting here wondering what Mega/Primal Rayquaza will be like.
Mega Rayquaza, 770 base stat. Flying/Dragon (like Noivern, just for Unique styling), and Give it Aerilate, turns normal moves into flying moves for STAB. So Extremespeed and Hyperbeam is going to make it the most mixed broken killer in the game.
Battle Spot will be even more broken, then. So, you think all three of them will have 770 as their BST?
Yep. With Mega Mewtwo’s only being the stronger, with 780.
I think Rayquaza has a 680 BST whereas Groudon and Kyogre have a 670 BST.
Yeah. but Mega’s increase your total base stat by 100. So Groudon Kyogre Mega will have 770 and Rayquaza 780
I completely forgot about Rayquaza, in the midst of all this. Probably going to stay Dragon/Flying
That is because its going to be a whole new storyline. Thats why people are forgetting rayquaza lol. Its no longer going to be the one to come down and stop them from battling.
I believe this is how they intend to introduce HA Skrelp. Through underwater hordes when we dive. “A school of Skrelp attacked”
When my bro an I finished XY in October, we decided what Hoenn Remake/Sequel games we’d get. I chose Ruby and he picked Sapphire. Can’t wait to get Omega Ruby!!!
One thing I want to see is more land on water routes, like mini islands where you can catch other than Water types and small lakes on land routes, where you could possibly Dive.
If we could have an easier, yet still challenging, way of getting to Mirage Island, that’d be great.
I want mega stones to be harder to find. Certain ones available when the tide is high, certain ones available when the tide is low. Hide a mega stone on a Mirage Island. One on abandoned ship.
Changing tides would be really cool.
it’s like every region had that one amazing unique thing about it…. the whole tide thing was really cool
OMG!!! Neo Groudon and Neo Kyogre have their own Greek letters on their bodies!!!
Yep, further backing up my A and Z theory and how these games are XY continuations.
Hopefully CoroCoro reveals Mega Swampert and Mega Sceptile right off the bat XDD
LMAO same. I’m just so darn eager to see gameplay footage.
I wonder how long these games have been in development! :O I hope it doesn’t feel rushed 🙁
considering Groudon/Kyogre/Rayquaza got retrademarked in 2012 (hinting at mega’s) I’d say atleast since 2011
EDIT
I’d say probably since 2010. Because in HG/SS the game director says he was working on Hoenn remakes technically.
Oh my goodness :O I can’t hold back the tears! ;~; :’D
Holy shit. I cannot breathe right now…..
@heavymetallamb:disqus you said more news should be here by friday/saturday is there an event or something?
corocoro will leak.
Nice!
So…can we start speculating Sinnoh Remakes/Sequels now?
Considering Sinnoh is still playable even on 3DS, this is my personal opinion, but I don’t want to see anymore remakes for a long time now.
But…but 3D Distortion World. 🙁
massive case of nausea ravages youth
take your time man…
it’ll be another 3 or 4 years
not until we get a game that has a couple that says “our wedding anniversary is 40 Diamond, and 45th Pearl”
Lol. Pretty sure 60 is Diamond.
LMAO!
Here’s your answer! 😀

LOL. That’s why I asked! XD
rotlmfao
Guys…Gals…all this we be shown in the anime!!!!
omg… what if groudon and kyogre get shown in “Mega Evolution Act II”
Along with Mega Lati@s!!!
Now we know how they planned to introduce the mega lati’s!!
I just remembered that Groudon has never been in a movie (Jirachi Movie doesn’t really count). Maybe Neo Groudon can change that.
I love that you call them Neo Groudon/Kyorgre. I love the “Neo” name.
As do I Heavy. As do I.
Doing Contests Online with friends is going to be so much f****** fun. I bet most of the fairy moves will be either “beauty” or “cute”
Yeah, Play Rough is cute…

Me too!!! :3
I’m having a really hard time deciding between Alpha and Omega. I guess I’ll have to wait for more informationnnnn
I AM GETTING BOTH
same tbh. I’m getting both and wanted to main Sapphire, but I guess I’ll wait for more info to see which one gets the better mega’s for me to decide as my main.
Yeahh. I’ll only be able to afford one so…. Gotta make my pick. xD
boy… you better go sell your bod.
The question no one asked…
“Who will be the starters” 0_0
Charizard
I’d quit Pokemon tbh.
You can also choose Mewtwo or Blastoise
Still quitting. lol.
No you wouldn’t. I guarantee it
Clearly Treecko, Torchic and Mudkip xD
There will be three new starters. A grass type that evolves into an Electric palm tree, a motorcycle pig, and a jar of water.
I remember when the how to train your dragon 2 teaser trailer came, at least it gave you something to fan girl over, here they are not giving much away
