The new trailer reveals game footage for several gyms in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, as well as Mega Metagross and some Pokémon Contest information!
Steven and Mega Metagross
As we previously reported, Steven has been confirmed for the Champion of the Hoenn region in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. He still uses Steel-type Pokémon, including a Metagross that is able to Mega Evolve thanks to his Mega Stickpin.
Mega Metagross is perfect for both offensive and defensive styled battles. Gaining boosts in Attack, Defense, Special Attack and Special Defense. The Pokémon also receives a significant boost to Speed when it Mega Evolves. All of this is topped off with the Mega Pokémon’s Tough Claws ability.
Mega Diancie
Further details on Mega Diancie have also been revealed. The Pokémon will receive boosts to its Speed, Attack and Special Attack when Mega Evolving, but will also have decreased Defense and Special Defense stats.
Other Details
The Official Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire site has updated with a ton of new screenshots and information, mostly consolidating what we learnt from the latest issue of CoroCoro; some details on Gym Leaders, Professor Birch and more has also been added though!

FEATURED THREAD: Searching for all the Vivillions! by DutchKroket
Wow Nintendo. Thanks for taking away from my Super Smash Bros hype. :I
Ikr?!
I love how Norman looks :o. Mega Metagross doesn’t look bad :3 Now I need to see Liza XD
LOL @ Flannery’s face when she battles you.
She’s amazing!
E4 won’t get megas. 🙁
A couple things to note.
1) I love Sydney’s room. I’m not sure if maybe that’s a new terrain move or just how it looks, but I’m in love with it.
2) You can see the door behind Phoebe, confirming that E4 is order based. You can’t choose.
THANK GODDDDDDDDDDDD
1)I love everything
2)YESSSS! I missed order based E4 :3
NOOOOOO ORDER BASED E4 SUCKS. ..
Wow! All of this was pretty darn great lol
Oh and one thing I noticed about the E4’s rooms was that behind them were the doors to the next person as usual so I think for this it’ll b like it was in gen 3 rather than in in gen 5 and on where u get to pick which e4 battle.
Makes sense cause remake
Agreed, but it seemed like one of the things people were wondering about bc I kno some people aren’t super into the E4 being the way they r now
Always be people you can’t please
True dat lol
Pikachu rock star is best Pikachu.
Well I thought Ike was the nail in the coffin for the Awakening characters. Boy was I wrong…
I mean, if we could customize Robin. It would be amazing. Just saying.
I dunno, the Mii Fighters are banned from online play for that…
It sucks that they are q.q
I can think of cool (human) characters to put in already… too bad.
Nintendo is so weird with that……Can’t u play as ur me online with Mario Kart? but not Smash bros bc they want to keep bullying to a minimum??????? how r people going to b bullies about mii’s?????? XD lol
Well the thing is though, in Mario Kart we can’t see the face of the opposing Miis long enough, if it’s someone trollish such as Hitler…
Even still a mii is something u make. it’s not something u can’t change. I know if someone made fun of my mii online I wouldn’t give a sh$%. Mii’s r just funny little people we can make, I just don’t c how someone can effectively make fun of something like it enough to hurt someones feeling that bad is all……but that’s all I have to say about that I guess lol
Guess Nintendo’s really cautious 🙂
Yeah who’d have thought they’d announce 3 new fire emblem characters. lol
Well 2 plus Chrom who is believed to be just part of a Final Smash
Ah srry I din’t actually watch so I guess I got confused when I saw Chrom on twitter lol
It was really just two though…
No, chrome is confirmed playable, but he’s a hidden character, like falcon. That’s why he didn’t receive a tagline or slot on the website yet.
Falcon is confirmed. It s on the website as playable.
Yeah. Game and Watch wasn’t officialy in the trailer, in this he was one of the main characters and they stared him in the face for a bit.
I hate to keep spamming but… the Kabutops in Roxanne’s gym moves. 0_0 OMG.
Hype level went up 20x after watching this trailer.
I have to say, the expressions in this game are pretty awesome!
Everything in this game is AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m very excited XDDDDD *dies*
Amazing attention to detail on the gym leaders and E4
Sydney’s battle ground is actually amazing, I would just stay in that room if I could
Nice to see some updated puzzles as well
(Speaking of puzzles, Trick House 3D puzzle please)
So why isn’t it dark in Brawly’s gym..? Because the video was taken when it was done? 🙂
They’re not sticking with the original gym puzzles
Norman’s is pretty much the same
Flannery’s kinda is with the dropping but it’s trapdoors instead of holes
Brawly has a new puzzle, probably because had to beat Brawly cause Flash was an HM, tis a TM now
Well I think they did with Norman and Flannery though… guess not all of them.
I love how the trailer says “pikachu likes to cosplay?!”. Even the trailer is like “WTF Pikachu”.
I just noticed, but in the Rustboro gym they have the old map of Hoenn lol
YEAH MEGAGROSS!!!!!
I’m so excited seeing a new trailer! I’ve been waiting forever! Also, Metagross gets boosts to ALL of it’s stats? Too OP for me XD.

I wonder if shiny Pikachu has the outfit appear a different color or if it’s limited to Pikachu itself 😮
Oh my gosh Flannery’s face in this screenshot… XD
What if they did the giant anime sweat drop on the player character? That would be hilarious.
She’s so cute! She’s like more nervous xD
KAWAII!
I went back and paused on this when I saw the trailer! I love how they’re really going all out on the facial expressions in this game. It’s small details like this that make good games become great!
Woah woah woah, Rock Smash is back to being an HM for this game? Zigzagoon, you have a temp place on my team
WHAT??? No way!
Yup, it says on the official site
‘You will also be able to crush small boulders with cracks in them if you have a pokemon that knows the HM move Rock Smash’
That sucks!
What is this website you speak of?
The Pokemon.com website
Wow.. That’s stupid honestly. Rock Smash was one of the worst HMs in RSE.
HMs are irrelevant TBH
Let’s be honest, Surf and Waterfall are the best
Then probably Fly and Strength are okay
Rock Climb and Dive have some…uses
I needed it to beat Watson tho
It was still not worth it having on my team. Such a weak move to have until very late into the game.
Well I needed it 100% for Watson.
It was my saving grace against magnetom
Well with Steel types losing the resistance to Ghost and Steel, it’ll be easier than before.
Yup
Grovyle does get Pursuit still, right?
Gym leaders don’t switch out too mich tho :/
but its still damage done!
But you said it yourself…it WAS IN RSE…. therefore as a remake it is logical that it would be in ORAS the same way as Whirlpool returned in HGSS.
True =/ But it was a TM. Whirlpool was not.
Still, Rcok Smash has more significance in this game since it is the main blockade until you beat Watson and is part of how you get strength. Lets just be glad that it looks like Flash will not be making its HM comeback…
Birch what are you doing? XD just kick it away from you.
‘Halloooooooooo’
Am I the only one that finds that funny?
His legs are way too small for that activity…
XD he could at least try.
Just imagine all of the un catchable Shiny Poocheyanas….Oo
I’m hoping they lock the poochyena’s… That’s frustrating when you find one…
Flannery has so much attitude in the trailer.. I love it.
Zangoose and Seviper are version exclusives to Omega and Alpha respectively. big surprise right? lol
Omfg the way they gesture at the beginning of battle…
That’s awesome…
I need this game!!! jscdkjashvckjmasbnckjb
So… Chrom is an assist trophy? As much as I am clueless about FE, Chrom seems like a cool character but eh, Lucina’s cool too haha
No, for Robin’s final smash, he summons Chrom to help beat down on those newbs.
Oh.. Well at least it’s something xD
