‘Delta Emerald’ Trademarked in Japan

In a surprising bit of news, it has come to light that Nintendo trademarked デルタエメラル (Delta Emerald) in Japan. This is most likely just to cover their bases and make sure the name is reserved because of its similarity to the announced Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire remakes coming to the Nintendo 3DS in November 2014. Other Pokémon-themed names have been trademarked before and Nintendo has also purchased a range of .com domain names for games that would never actually exist. Don’t get your hopes up 😉  This was discovered by a 2ch user and the thread can be viewed on Hachima Kikou.

Even so, this is sure to draw some speculation from the fandom at large 😉

  1. I just realized I was putting my DS cartridge of Blue Rescue Team sideways….lolwat.
    And I should tell you guys. This game is a survivor. It survived the washing machine. The sticker is gone, but I know it’s that game because it’s the only one like it.
    SURVIVOR!

  2. @PercyEspeon:disqus what do you think about this intro for song 😀 :
    “You’re now part of our happy happy family!
    With amazing brave pokejunglers
    And terrifying trollers
    We’ve happily agreed upon
    Welcoming (pokejungle newbie)” We’ll make it longer ;D

  3. We should have an Ice Status Move that causes Automatic Freezing…but only give it to a Secret Legendary so it’ll be banned in tournaments!

  4. I honestly don’t want to nickname my Froslass Elsa because it’s too obvious. So I’ll nickname her Crystal instead.

  7. I’m stuck trying to think of a Team Name in Blue Rescue Team.
    I wanted to name it FireWater because Cinder is a Cyndaquil and I am a Squirtle.
    But I dunno.
