In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Kyogre and Groudon are able undergo a process known as Primal Reversion. This allows the two Pokémon to revert into Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon, and allows them to draw back power from nature and gain an even larger power boost.

  3. One thing I noticed on the Japanese website is that there are 4 more slots to be filled at the bottom of the legendaries page. Mega Lati@s?

  4. I hope we get to travel to the islands and that “Dimension Portal.” I actually think the “Dimension Portal” will play a part in the actual plot. The did promise a “dramatic story” after all.

    PS: Am I being converted into a Hoenn fanatic?!

  5. I thought they couldn’t top X and Y’s graphics in the 3DS.. Well, I’ve never been more wrong. Except for the route before Rustboro.. They should improve on the texture of the grass ._.

  6. I wrote a little something for hoenn
    my home
    you’ll see the beauty and creativity that is hoenn
    the diversity and strength that a tropical island possesses, the volcanic beauty of Hoenn.
    The gentle caressing serenity of the towns…
    the sweetness of the vibes

    all the good times I had as a child
    (poem begins)
    the fresh taste taste of the tropics
    You can feel it’s alive
    the home in which my heart picks
    Filled with happiness and strive
    A beauty that nobody else could discern,
    you guessed it pal,
    Hoenn confirmed.
