‘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. They need to put the Legendary Beasts post game as roamers…

    Raikou – Available if the player chooses Mudkip as their starter. Roams Hoenn post game. Has its Hidden Ability Volt Absorb.
    Entei – Available if the player chooses Treecko as their starter. Roams Hoenn post game. Has its Hidden Ability Flash Fire.
    Suicune – Available if the player chooses Torchic as their starter. Roams Hoenn post game. Has its Hidden Ability Water Absorb.

    I dream of the day when I can use these guys with their hidden abilities ;_;

  7. I hope some time soon when 5th gen gets megas, hydreigon gets one and loses its dark typing when it evolves, that way it can be good again 🙂

  8. Well, I’m back. The order for Mario Kart 8 is “Shipping Now”, although that means the order is still being processed. So that’s good! Hopefully I won’t have to ask for a refund of my shipping if it arrives late 😉
    This is all I could think about at school today…
