i have 400 dollars to spare so I’m wondering if i should wait till other new 3ds color and such
Anyyyyways, less than 2 weeks till CoroCoro. I’m still hoping, praying, begging for Mega Milotic. Could September be the month?! A man can only dream haha
I expect Wally, the rest of the Gym Leaders and Elite 4, and maybe Mega Camerupt and Sharpedo
nah thats way too much i beleive and way too revealing.
Probably wally and maybe dive or surf?
How is it too much xD
i mean too much in the fact that we got all the gym eladers and their gyms and all the elite 4 2 monthes before release i doubt it
its too much information that gamefreak wouldn’t give
But we know who they are LOL
true but they wanna save SOMETHING besides the post game for us to be surprised about in ORAS
I don’t think they’ll spoil anything post-game related before release
exactly and i dont think they will spoil all the revamped gyms
It’s just re-designs as Chaos said xD
tho whenever the redesigns are made, they show a gameplay trailer of their gyms
hence why i dont want the leaders t be revealed. If gamefreak can reveal them without showing the gyms i m down
No one said anything about seeing gyms, just gym leaders.
I expect them to keep the (hopeful) battle frontier a secret until release.
Agreed, and I would be totally shocked if Battle Frontier wasn’t in. TOTALLY shocked. Can’t wait to see the revamp it gets :3 Part of me feels that the Battle Facility that was left to randomness, where the Pokemon battled themselves (Forget what it’s called), will be changed to an Inverse Battle Facility
maybe they will have both the sinnoh and hoenn frontier
I think they would svae the inverse battle facility for z
Why? ._. Hoenn had its own Frontier, that outclassed the Sinnoh one in every possible way. Plus Sinnoh was pretty much just a mini mock of Hoenn, sharing some same facilities. It’d be pointless xD
also its called the battle palace :3
Thank you. Most of my time was spent on Ruby, and the times I did play Emerald I was addicted to the Battle Pike xD
i loved all of them
tho i kept playing in the pike and pyramid also i stared intot he window of battle dome in hope of seeing tucker
Someone had the hots for Tucker 😉
no. i liked his fashion AND his moonwalk XD
Only teasin xD My favorite Brain is Anabel
i know XD
i love them all
same
is Wally a important character? on the game only 2 duel with him LOL
There’s really not much to be surprised about in ORAS, other than megas.
Aaaaaand Battle Frontier!
I would agree with you if they were new games in a new region and everything. But we already know the gym leaders from originals and they just need to show us new designs.
tho the mega camerupt and mega sharpedo should be saved for the games
No lol
If anything, they won’y show M Camerupt and Sharpedo and M Flygon instead
exactly mega flygon and mega mitotic
if anything corocor would leak the rest of the elite 4 and gy in the november issue
I don’t expect Wally. But I agree with the rest of you list. Also maybe another surprise mega.
Same. I expect those Megas as well, they’re overdue haha
why people say lisia is winona retards
LOL This is bad timing for a new 3DS imo. New games are coming out this year, so if people buy a 3DS for the gamea, then it’ll take longer for them yo buy the N3DS once es released. My cousin(s) hasn’t bought a 3DS yet but they want to, but with this dilemma, either waiting until the N3DS to play these games orgetting a 3 DS to play Smash and ORAS, dunno.
was this in the direct because everyone saying this was a mini direct
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omeOylQYkuU#t=18
I wonder how the Physical/Special split will affect the Battle Frontier’s (if it is added) difficulty.. The only one I ever defeated without cheating was the Battle Pike. xD
I beat all but the Factory (silver only..couldn’t be bothered for gold)
Upon closer expection, it looks like they’re using a home screen similar to that of the DSi.
#flashbackfriday anyone?
skid said it was considered the dsi of the 3ds
guess they pulled it even further
Great to see them going back to the old days.
they had a smash direct today it was 5 minutes tho
Where?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omeOylQYkuU#t=18
There’s also supposedly one later?
We’ll have to wait and see.
when?
8 PM pst
can i have some proof?
Many websites, and I mean many (look it up on google) are saying that there is one tonight.
I can’t tell if it’s fake or not.
but what if it the one i showed u
There was supposed to be an English one tonight.
Licki, Xatu researched it and it was fake.
Well I didn’t know ;(
it was fake its a fake twitter
The new 3DS’ colour scheme reminds me of the SNES as well haha
That’s what the ABXY buttons are supposed to look like! I’m happy that Nintendo is trying to bring back old consoles in new ones.
I find it very complementary with the white one, not sure about the black one though. I havennt seen it yet xD
I just put in a request for a custom Deoxys Speed Form hat. Things just got serious.
what about a xatu head hat
I might do that later, but Deoxys would just look cool in hat form. Not to mention it’s my favorite legendary next to Zygarde and I like going fast. Gotta go fast.
SANIC SANIC4MAD
NO IT’S SEWPER SANIC
“Oh baby a triple!”
soo the twitter is funny NintendoAmerico said the fake smash direct
I just learned that iOS has a DS emulator and it runs at 60fps on the iPhone 5S and iPad Air.. But as of right now, its temporarily down T.T
Okay, wow, Shulk is definitely his own character with his own moves.
But who was the guy talking at the end of his trailer?
That’s a character from the Xenoblade game, likely to be a stage hazard
That’s what I thought, or a stage boss?
That’s what I meant xD Sorry xD
stage boss probably metal face
http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110928114340/xenoblade/images/e/eb/Metal_Face_art.jpg
here he is
Actually it’s probably Xord seeing as he calls Shulk “Monado Boy”
xord flies?
Yup
wait untill gamexplain
but metal face has the same shadow as the mysterious thing in the trailer also i thought they all call him monado boy
I think the voice matches more to Xord, but we’ll see.
ok 😀
he sounds like metal face i just looked up his voice
So ORAS N3DS 2015 anyone?
delta emerald instead :3
nope very unlikely they rather save the n3ds features for a brand new experience and adventure
cant wait till this happens
No, I’m saying a N3DS Limited Edition with ORAS decals on it.
OH
YES YES YES YES
Mega Altaria custom 3DS
TC, that would just be a ball of fluff, sorry.
LOL
I fluff you
“I will always floof you”
∞ I will always Fluff you. Too Fluffy for OU. MAXIMUM FLOOF ∞
winonna will floof you
Not if she don’t have Mega Altaria she don’t
Otherwise Ice Punch from Bae to OHKO
actually i learned that before you challenge winonna you can go to the abandoned ship and find ice beam to beat winona
thats the only way to really kill her cause swampert doesnt lesrn ice punch level up 😛
Move Tutor *crosses fingers*
And in Hoenn, you can get all the way to the league without beating Brawly and Winona, but it’ll be harder without Flash and Fly.
yep XD tho i think ill be fine cause ill have either ice beam swampy or mega sceptile
technically its possible cause i bet some people will make custom faceplates
Im struggling to think if i should use mudkip or treecko in my OR
cause i was planing mudkip in or and treecko in AS till OR became my main
:/ the struggle is real
Let this convince you:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DkqMjfqqPc
xD Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
ok that video made me decide
mudkip for OR treecko for AS still 😀
actually no treecko for or 😀
…
idek ;~; i have teams set for both
only thing is team magma is super effective on my sceptile
On Mega es not 😉 Plus it makes it more of a challenge.
true true besides i love a challenge treecko for OR it is
thank you 🙂
XD Yeah, I guess 🙂
You used Treecko in X, so Mudkip in OR.
i didnt use treecko in x i used torchic in x XD
Oh ;~; Mudkip anyways
Torchic
What was the trainer ID of the event Torchic in XY?
idek
It was XY. 😉
Dang it, it was XY ;~; I wanted to use the Shiny Beldum as long as it had my ID
go mm then
But then it has my XY ID D:
then mm in oras then…..
But then It’d be part of the way through the game D:
OMG i dont know -_-
I could just not use it 😀
oh pokermaster are you doing OR or AS?
Both, but maining AS so 😀
im maining OR 😀
AS and Kyogre and Mudkip <3
Never mind I think imma use it, idc about the ID atm ;~;
Plus it’s stronger than Shedinja ;~;
go for it 😀
I just hate using pokes that weren’t made in that game ;~; So I normally trade a poke from another game and breed that one. But it’s shiny so :/ And I love Shedinja D:
Whoops edited there refresh
technically that beldum is made in your AS
True, but then the ID is most likely ORAS like Torchic was XY.
My OR team
Sceptile (mega)
walrien
armaldo
gallade
salamence
maybe mawile
My AS Team
Swampert
Altaria/Shiny Xatu
Breloom
???
???
???
Swampert
Altaria
Breloom
Camerupt
Gardevoir
Aggron
OR team:
Shiny Sceptile
Shiny Atlaria (Mega)
Shiny Probopass
Camerupt
Gorebyss
Minun
cool
Wow lel
I really want to use my shiny Sceptile on OR but I unfortunately hatched a relaxed one.
That speed reduction… ;u;
I’ll probably use him anyways but I’m always unlucky when it comes to hatching eggs or finding shinies with random natures.
even tho i have a shiny treecko and its my favorite pokemon, i refused to send it over for my first lp maybe for a later one
But i want to relax and make it hard in my first lp :/
Yeah, I feel the same.
I’ve pre-ordered both games so I’ll be using AS as my main with Pokemon I catch in-game and probably do some nuzlocke challenges on OR. 😉
It’s your game, play how you want, don’t condescend or make hints at disappointment for the way others want to enjoy their own adventure 🙂
i know im not dissapointed at all i even told skiddo what you just said XD its your game do what tyou want
i just wanted my two cents in there and add a commente XD
all potential megas XD me like
Can’t wait to use my EVd shiny wailmer in ORAS.
;~; Reset Bag
Or just leave it, for you could’ve just Super Trained it early on in game anyways
I mean it’s not like the main game is hard anyways, lol. Might as well have some good EVs.
xD Yeah
Just found a shiny Manectric in the safari zone on my X. And it’s got outstanding potential! 😀
Finally redemption for the shiny electrike that I didn’t catch when I started playing Pokémon (on Sapphire) several years ago.
That was my first shiny in XY ;~; But on a route.
Nice! Did you catch it? 🙂
I started playing Pokemon with a friend on her sapphire and when we encountered the oddly coloured Electike we didn’t think it was anything special, and since we already had one on the team we decided to kill it…
I still feel really stupid. 🙁
xD Yeah I did.
But it’s okay, you didn’t know.
Are they seriously calling the new 3DS models “New 3DS”? Really? Well, they still seem awesome anyway. :3
yep day one buy 😀
I’m glad I didn’t buy the 3DS XL. 😀
:D:D:D
It’s the NEW 3DS! So NEW and exciting. I kNEW something like this would happen.
Wow my ingame team has a resistence to every type…except fairy tho mawile has a super effective on it
AS
Swampert – M
Kyogre – Megaish
Altaria – M
Shiftry? Or maybe Metagross – M
Camerupt – M?
Shedinja? Or maybe Metagross – M – dunno ;~:
OR
Sceptile – M
Flygon – M?
Aggron – M
Gardevoir – M
Exploud – ;~;
Groudon – Megaish
why do u have all megas……
Because they’re most of my favorite pokemon from Hoenn, and of course they mostly all have megas.
Exploud might go for Milotic tho
Inb4 ORAS decaled N3DS XL? Or even a themed N3DS 😀 I will so get that
Why does Shulk have shorter hair? And why does he have an American accent? I know that he didn’t have it when Xenoblade Chronicles was released in English because it wasn’t planned to be released in the U.S., so everyone that speaks in English in that game has a British Accent because it was sold in Europe. XD
Things just won’t be the same. :'(
Localizationnnnnnn
Plus they’re announcing a new Xenoblade game so that one will prolly have all Merican accents maybe
It’s going to take a lot of getting used to.
#TheStruggleIsCereal.

Hipster you realize that hashtags can’t have apostrophies in them, right?
They can’t?
No xD They’re supposed to have just letters and numbers iirc
inb4 twitter adds apostrophe hashtag support
LOL
Okay >:( I changed
