Mega Sableye Revealed for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire!

Mega Sableye has been confirmed for Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. The Mega Stone to Mega Evolve Sableye will only be available in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

When Sableye Mega Evolves all its energy is concentrated into the jewel on its chest, which grows in size and detaches from the Pokémon’s body. Mega Sableye uses the jewel to protect itself from oncoming attacks, which apparently hardens providing a huge defensive benefit during battle.

          • This is from the Pokemon Press Conference.

            “Sableye is a Dark- and Ghost-type Pokémon. Mega Sableye has concentrated all of the energy from Mega Evolution into the jewel which adorns its chest. Once Sableye has Mega-Evolved, this jewel will swell and become detached from its body. Mega Sableye uses the jewel as a powerful defensive tool in battle. From behind the shelter of the jewel, it can readily exploit the opponent’s weaknesses and take advantage of any openings. It is said that the jewel hardens into such strength that no attack can even make a scratch!”

          • Hey. I don’t make the cuts at GameFreak. I gave you the proof that you wanted! There’s no reason to be mad over 1 Pokemon that could be taken down by a Special Fairy. 😛

          • I used a special fairy
            and i’ve never been able to beat it
            I even had 3 Calm Minds and 2 Cotton Guards but like always they never let me touch it

            This thing just causes me so many freaking problems

          • I DON’T WANT TO USE A FUCKING SYLVEON

            AND EVERY TIME YOU GUYS TELL ME ITS LIKE TELLING ME THAT I HAVE TO DO WHAT U SAY TO WIN, BUT IT NEVER WORKS FOR ME

          • Calm down. It’s just a game. If your going to be mad, stay mad. You don’t have to follow my advise. If you don’t want to buy ORAS just because of Mega Sableye it’s your call. 😛

          • It may be a game but its a game i’ve put my heart and soul into
            I used to use Video Games as a gateway out of my miserable stressful real life
            But now they’ve become my ultimate stress causer
            Because my real life is lonely, miserable and pathetic

          • Jeez. No need to get so upset. We are giving you advice on how to highten your chances to win. We aren’t forcing it on you. Stop being so mean about something that isn’t required in the game to finish.

          • Calm down dude… And the end of the day. It’s just a game. There are more important things to be mad about like. Like in real life stuff.

          • You ever noticed how they over exaggerate the Dex description with Pokemon. Like in 6th gen they said meowstic could crush a 16 wheeler trunk with it’s power. When in reality it sucks 😐

          • It does not :O
            My female Meowstick totally crushed everything in its path during my Y playthrough. It rarely died.

  1. I really like Pokemon that are either associated with an object or holding something. I think it’s pretty cool. For example the Conkeldurr line and Flabebe/Floette and now Mega Sableye

  2. Dear Smogon, Serebii forums and other forums and shit

    So Ive been thinking to myself this: Have people forgotten what pokemon is really about. The fact that the underling mentality that the metagame (which is very important) is the end all be all to what makes a good pokemon game pretty goes to show that most now use their opinions about pokemon just to fuel arguments and irrational debates. While some still out there still truly love pokemon for what it is, I feel as if that group of is dwindling away. Stats do not make a pokemon better than another. Love the game for what it is and all the hard work put into it instead of spewing shit across the internet about how on little thing ruins the whole franchise.

        • Yes, but the typing really matters. With Stealth Rocks around, it’s hard to be a good Fire/Flying/Ice/Bug type. Seeing as those 4 types are pretty frail.. Although, this isn’t entirely true. Charizard Y and Volcarona are my examples of going past this. But they have things that differentiate them from the others. Charizard Y has Drought and high special attack, and Volcarona’s ability and Quiver Dance set it apart.

          • Very true. However stats also matter a lot. In my opinion the most important stat is speed. Because this basically defines who attacks first and who manages to get the KO first.

            Another thing to consider is this. It goes without saying that a Primal Kyogre with a Special Attacking Stat of 200 is dangerous. In my opinion a a Primal Kyogre with a 110 base speed or 120 base speed is even ore dangerous….because now it out speeds the majority of Ubers and threatens to KO with stupidly strong moves..

          • Also one of the main reasons Mega Lucario is broken is because of that awkward speed stat where it out speeds all the bas 110 s and below…making it very hard to even revenge kill without a scarfer. ..again speed being the deciding factor

    • I’m totally a casual gamer, and don’t care for the metagame and competitive battling in general. All I care about is shinies, since I rarely encounter them.
      It’s that spark of something new and adventure that is in it for me 😀

    • :O People are seriously rude. We get it, you’re mad, but there is no need for yelling and hating at Masuda, okay? You can calmly tell him you are upset.

  3. I wonder when their going to show off the PokeNav. I’m guessing the feature is going to return. Their highly going to integrate the PokeNav with the PSS! Maybe Amie and Super Training too!

  4. Great, Junichi Masuda withdrew from Twitter, taking a break from it due to the torrent of spam that are people copy-paste tweet begging him to change the release date of ORAS for Europe. Masuda HAS NO CONTROL over it. Geez. Blame PEGI or something.

  5. I can’t go through all comments, so I don’t know if it’s said before but I think Sableye may get Sapphire Mega Evolution, because all of its body has rubies, where the hell those sapphires go?

  6. So, um…
    I have been doing some research on SSB, and I have found that 9 newcomers have been announced (Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Mega Man, Rosalina and Luma, Little Mac, Greninja, Mii Fighters, Palutena, and Pac-Man).
    This means there is a possibility of 1 new character left to be announced, as it would only make sense to do 10.
    Now, upon further analysis, I have come to a conclusion that most characters in the game come from Mario and Pokemon, meaning there will probably not be any more characters from those franchises.
    But, I have a hunch that most veterans WILL be returning from SSBB, as it wouldn’t make sense to leave them out.
    Now, that 1 newcomer. It would have to be from a series that doesn’t have many characters in the game, which brings me to a couple of options:
    • Dixie Kong (Donkey Kong Country series)
    • Helda (LOZ:LBW)
    • Roy (Fire Emblem Series)
    • Dark Pit (Kid Iccarus Series)
    • other
    Now these are just my guesses.
    I would love for you guys to check out my forum about this on Retry Level! (I’m lonely there… :()

  7. Dear Europe people:
    Reasons why you should not be upset:
    It is only a week, 7 days.
    And did you NOT get Mario and luigi dream team before us???
    Also:
    Nintendo has nothing against you,
    they are just simply not able to ship to Europe until a week later.
    There is nothing wrong with that.
    It happens.
    And you are going to get a pre-order bonus 9375094590238% better than ours XD
    as always.
    Complaining to Masuda or whatever won’t speed up the shipping process, it will only hurt feelings and will waste your own time.

  8. Getting pretty tired about hearing about Splatoon… I would rather have them show a little and make me want more! Now it just seems over played and i’m uninterested… Sorry if anyone disagrees. 🙁
