New Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Trailer Released

In addition to showing off the newly revealed Mega Evolutions of Altaria, Salamence and Lopunny, we also get our first look at Horde Battles against Team Magma! The official site has also been updated with screenshots and more information.

The Pikachu which can wear outfits is called ‘Cosplay Pikachu’ and has a distinctive tail different than normal Pikachus. It has a dark heart-shaped mark and is the only Pikachu able to use costumes.

Contests will have an Introduction Round which judges your Pokémon’s conditions, which can be improved through the use of Pokéblocks, and then a Talent Round in which you have 5 turns to use moves. There are also combos which can give your score a boost, such as Focus Energy followed by Stone Edge. Through your performances you can also amass a fan following which you’ll see at the Hall entrances.

In a new feature, you can also take pictures with your Pokémon during the contest, as seen above.

  1. I guess we can sorta thank Bulbapedia for exposing the leaker and forcing them to put up a new trailer and release all the information. I feel like they rushed this up because of that whole fiasco.

    Game Freak: Oh no! CoroCoro info has leaked! We were just on Bulbapedia!
    Nintendo: What do you want us to do about it?
    Game Freak: Quick! We’re gonna make a trailer about the new information!
    Nintendo: But we should give them something they don’t know too.
    Game Freak: Oh! We got it! Random Trainer Horde Battles with Team Magma/Aqua! I bet lots of people will love beating up the Grunts 5 at a time!
    Nintendo: Okay. Sounds good!

  2. I’m crying because I actually got to hear all the mega evolution cries this time; looks liked they raised the in-game volume. Mega Metagross cry is great.

  4. I love how Mega Altaria has a lavender hue to it. It’s so gorgeous! Can’t wait to use one as my Mega in Alpha Sapphire! Though I might have to put that on hold if Mega Sharpedo is a full bodied shark that looks really badass. Lol.

  5. So Excited that you can compete in contests with friends online! 😀 Also those pics of Feebas and Milotic on the site are strange.. i wonder if there is a cut scene with them or if they were created just for the site?

      • Yeah on the official site it says: “There’s a lot more you can do with the Pokémon Contest Spectacular. First, using communication features, you can play together with your friends. Compete with your friends and family members on the contest stage!” It doesn’t explicitly state on-line but communication features does suggest that this will be the case.

  7. I need a Santa fan art with Drayden and M Milotic is the bag that his pet Delibird is holding and they use a sleigh of Stantler and the front one has a red nose.

  8. So that fake Mega Klingklang I wish was real tbh. I would love it except it’d need more of a Titany look being all boss

  9. Notice how Milotic’s Dex number in the Hoenn Dex has been bumped up from 141
    to 146. This does confirm that an expansion of the Hoenn Dex will be in these games. Likely to include to evolutions of older Pokémon in the Hoenn Dex such as Dusknoir and random Pokémon from other regions such as Buneary and Lopunny and a few others. Also, refresh for picture if you can’t see it.

  10. If Shelleos and Gastrodon are included in the Dex, I hope they have Northern and Southern Shelleos and Gastrodon. One for the north seas of Hoenn, areas all north of Sootopolis City’s crater and to the east of it, the other for the south seas, which will be areas south of the Sootopolis City’s crater and Routes 105, 106, 107, 108, and 109. Since Hoenn’s seas are geographically like it. I would f***ing love that to death!
