A new WiFi event is officially live! Knowing the moves Trick-or-Treat and Scary Face, and holding a Rocky Helmet, this Super Size Pumpkaboo is available for download from NOW until Halloween – so get it while you can! At the moment of me posting this the event is only live for North America, but as the day rolls on it should be available in other regions with the same event start and end dates.
Reminder that the special seven hour long NicoNico livestream event is later tonight, with the promised new Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire info to be announced at midnight JST; so be sure to check back later for what was revealed!
HAPPY POKTOBERFEST EVERYONE!

I am extremely sure that this livestream will be yet again a disappointment.
I’m expecting about 2 new Megas and that’s about it.
I don’t think anything more will be revealed.
And I have two solid reasons why.
1) “Groundbreaking Pokemon Announcment”
2) “Scoop of the Century”
Guess what those things were?
Shit.
So don’t expect much this time, either. Nintendo likes to over-hype us with things, which I hope to God won’t be the case when the full OR/AS games come out.
HEY
Don’t even talk bad about hypothetical ORAS
I wasn’t. Just stating the possibilities.
I know, I just don’t think there is any way they can mess up Hoenn.
There is one:
No BF. 😀
True, but nothing is flawless either.
Only time can tell though.
I have high hopes. 🙂
But this isn’t corocoro or Get TV so we good 2 go
That’s true. But the “Groundbreaking Pokemon Announcement” wasn’t CoroCoro or Get TV; it was a stream similar to this one.
;~;
same website too
Well I mean it is the first pokemon arcade game
Pokémon Tretta was the first one
Easy solution
Expect little to nothing on everything
I find it funny how we find 2 or 4 Megas to be boring news. Once upon a time, we went nuts when one new Mega was revealed (except Mega Kangaskahn, she sucks). 😛
EDIT: “find it funny”.
The reason it is boring news is because it is advertised as something amazing.
Two megas isn’t amazing.
Because everybody has their own vision of “amazing.”
i just feel like i wish corocoro would focus more on the story and gameplay mechanics in the this one and just show off 1 mega
True.
I’d rant about how some Megas don’t look “amazing” like Mega Slowbro, but I won’t.
Really??
I find two megas to be amazing news…
But that is just me I guess
You are getting kinda picky and needy
Same.
i dont see how he is? I can find it two just seeing 2-3 megas every corocoro we had since ORAS announced boring
idk mabye because thats all we see every corocoro or big announcement XD
Great, now I need a female Insomnia Super-Size. 😀
I’ll probably source one from you guys this weekend. You can either breed it, or I’ll clone it. Hopefully you aren’t all gonna be playing Smash.
I will probably take the time to get one, so you could grab it later.
In other news, I’ll be playing Smash all weekend.
Cool, thanks! I will be giving you a copy (of course) of my own Plumpkaboo so you can enjoy that too.
Hopefully you can find time to break from playing Smash. HEH HEH HEH.
Wait. Coro Coro and that one trailer never went in full detail about Wally.
They just slapped him next to Mega Gallade and expected us to know who he was! :
thats what im saying… Pokemon is hyping up megas more then the actual story and mechanics it feels like half the time in trailers
Thank you. This is exactly my point right here.
I hope ORAS doesn’t fall into the same shithole that Titanfall, Watch Dogs and Destiny fell into.
The trailers and information won us over, but there was a lack of many things in each game.
thats what im saying…. basically ORAS is not giving me the hype i love as a pokemon fan…. its just boom NEW MEGAS shows a little gameplay…. at least X/Y didnt show megas off 2 months before hand so my hype was living and it was fresh too.now it just feels milked
Your point is excellent.
It’s merely 1 month before release and all we know is about Megas.
Remember back in May when the teaser trailer said something like “explore a dynamic new world?” Where is the dynamic new world? It’s been so many months and we don’t know anything about this new world. Hell, we don’t even know all of the gym leaders yet!
We know the map of this new world…..the hype of ORAS never happen to me yet…. I been considering not buying because how much they arent giving the fans what they want to see…. Hoenn in 3d…. actually battles… alot of things… if they did a trailer just to center around i would be very happy like the one we saw like a month ago
Well, I wouldn’t say that ORAS is so bad that you shouldn’t buy it.
What I will say is that Nintendo needs to advertise things for what they really are, regardless of what the fanbase things. Rather than overhyping us and leaving us disappointed, tell us what to expect.
Im saying that ORAS hasnt been giving me the pokemon charm with trailer im going to buy i just hope i dont regret it
Yeah, but maybe Pokemon is going into that phase where they want most of the game to be discoverable by the player.
IDK, just a thought.
yea but remember Nintendo hasn’t been good at adverting lately
Did you see the Smash advertising? All the character teases and Sakurai trolling? Now THAT’S advertising.
If they really don’t want to show off some scenes in the story, then they could show off the little things, like Secret Gym Bases. I really want to know what it looks like to be a gym leader. They could also show Pokemon Bank being used to transfer pokemon from XY to ORAS. IDK. Something other than Megas. :
^^^ thats what i mean by mechanics why couldnt we have a whole trailer dedicated to that
This is what I mean.
Megas are getting too overrated for ORAS.
There’s not enough gameplay footage to win anyone over, really. ;~;
its not about the story its just about in haul how megas are stars of each trailer
I’m not going to complain about the large amount of Megas that makes Mega Evolution less special.
However, I wish that they would rarely show them off. Megas lost their awesome charm long ago.
This is how I react to new Megas now: “Whoopie…another Mega.”
Yeah, having more Megas is great, don’t get me wrong.
I just wish the balance between Megas and footage was more…well, balanced. XD
Two words: Battle. Frontier.
But then again, they never showed the Battle Maison in trailers.
I have my theory on that
Maybe it’s because children are more interested in Megas than Gameplay. Despite that the fact that the majority of buyers are teenagers and adults. XD
I dont think so…. basically pokemon is trying to hype everyone with megas instead of new stuff…. i know megas are cool and all but now they go to far with advertising them more then the actual game
ORAS won’t be like that.
I’ve played R/S/E And I must say they are excellent 😉
Djja u arent seeing the point
R/S/E and ORAS are two differnt games basically since Remakes add new stuff…. and i can Dicie point of view. ORAS is basically acting liek Titanfall, Watch dogs and Destiny
Not at all.
If they follow the same plot instructions as R/S/E, they will be good. Stop trying. “It’s getting hype so it’s bad” – everyone
Someone sounds Baised
I think the person you speak of knows what he’s talking about. (me)
Lol
Someone sounds biased
However, I do think it is too early to make an impression that ORAS is similar to those games.
I’m just afraid they will end up that way.
OMG.
For the first time in forever… ♫
I don’t want new leaks of Mega Pokemon!
In this case, I think they want to keep that story under wraps.
They also didn’t reveal much of X/Y’s story either pre-release.
That’s true.
Unfortunately XY’s story wasn’t completely great. It wasn’t spread out enough. The story really started about halfway through the game, which is quite the while.
The quality of X/Y’s story aside, point is they didn’t reveal much (even if we do have an idea how the plots of R/S/E went) except the evil teams and some of the characters involved.
yea but that was little bits of trailers the rest were megas
every trailer centers around megas
My point is they are not talking about the story for a good reason. Would they trailer-or-corocoro-spoil the plot to kids and other players who haven’t played (or even heard) of R/S/E? I don’t think so.
Most games explain the story in trailers but without spoil to give the buyer a ideas what going on
Actually this is not the case for pokemon they mainly show new pokemon
And since me as are our ‘new pokemon’ they show that off
Me as= megas
yea i understand but still i rather they show mechanics and stuff that we havent seen R/S/E or returning for R/S/E as the star of a trailer instead of megas
Um
The contests with megas
The secret bases
Primal pokemon
The new pikachus
Some music
They have showed more
Ok? ur not getting it…. why cant we have a trailer that doesn’t include any mega
Did the secret base one not include a mega?
Also the plot has to do with mega evolution
Yes, the secret base one didn’t have a Mega.
Keep in mind ORAS isn’t just being sold to the people with R/S/E nostalgia. You may be expecting too much, or content geared towards your interests.
There are a lot of mechanics been shown. Menacing Cascoon has posted some.
Ok, let’s see, what I can piece together from the trailers and screenshots.
1. You pick a protagonist, male or female
2. You get one of three starter Pokemon
3. You fight team Magma and Aqua*
* note that the trailers don’t say one is the bad guy or good guy – it just seems you encounter their leaders in a “boss battle” – so a reasonable watcher who hasn’t heard of R/S/E will assume they’re both antagonists in both games a-la Emerald.
4. You travel to some cities. There’s a cool treehouse city and a bike lane.
5. You engage in some gym battles. Roxanne is shown.
6. There will be megas. Kyogre and Groudon seem to be powering up.
7. There are side activities like contests and secret bases. We’re introduced to their own experts.
8. Steven is contemplating the secret of Mega Evolution.
9. Birch is attacked and you pick a starter.
I think that’s pretty good. If you are expecting Trailers Always Spoil, I guess you are expecting too much.
If I recall that page correctly, was there a screenshot of ORAS in the side that talks about Wally (in Japanese of course)?
i have ocd now with the circle pad not working right…im always checking it XD
When is the Halloween tourney going to start?
I’d just wait for the next tourney article for confirmation, but my estimate is around Halloween.
Okay. I was just asking since it is the season of spooky scary skeletons now.
I highly expect Primal Rayquaza to be revealed this weekend on Get TV.
However, they may pull a #TrollFreak and reveal it on the livestream AND Get TV. ;~;
and corocoro
Ironically the world exclusive footage or whatever is the first time Get TV has ever shown something first lol
What I am afraid about though, is that someday, GF will give us too many Primals too quickly, and we’ll be bored of them. Primals have pretty much becom the new Megas in terms of hyping us up. I don’t want to see them go to waste.
However, I’m okay with Primal Rayquaza’s potential reveal this weekend. Just so long as it’s the only new Primal until the Sinnoh Sequels with Primal Dialga (the real one), Prima Palkia, and Primal Giratina (although IDK how it’s work with its having its Origin Forme).
I honestly hope Primals are restricted to Hoenn. It gives ORAS something unique, like walking with pokemon in HG/SS.
i have a huge Feeling Walking with Pokemon will return one day
Heavenly heart gold and Serenity soul silver
Most likely Diamond and Pearl remakes since one area did have walking with pokemon
But that’s not 100% walking with pokemon.
I want 100% walking with pokemon
Johto confjn5mr e
Like in Platinum’s mini park?
yea but it will expand where u can walk anywhere but there it can be only cute pokemon
Primal Dialga already exists, though… if in a spinoff.
“Dark Dialga”
Wow. I have too many typos! So sorry everyone! I was typing too fast!
It’s not okay I’m already violated ;~;
*pokes Djja*
iits like i wrote it
Mega Rayquaza*
yep its most likely mega Rayquaza
I’m excited to see what it looks like. I expect it to be sleeker, like Mega Salamence, or more robust, like Mega Sharpedo.
My 2spooky4me team has been bred tommorrow I will EV train
did u ever get houndour?
I’m all set also except for the most crucial bit (IMO) the nicknames. If I dint get those right I feel I’ve lost before it’s even begun.
I do it slightly differently. My team* is half-done, but already been EV trained and leveled. Kekeke.
* Now with more Intimidate!
Honestly, I want Rayquaza to be the last Mega related thing to be revealed until the games are released. Sorry, but even Mega Milotic and Mega Flygon will have to wait until the games come out. That’s just my opinion though. I just want to see more gameplay from here on out.
Oh, and I’ll avoid any Pokemon website like the Black Plague one week before ORAS is released. I don’t want to be tempted to be spoiled again.
mega Evolution tie with the story like in X/Y so we will see more
I want more dive
You better not go online at all! It releases 1 wk early in Japan right?
Expect spoilers on the level of Smash 3DS…
EDIT: Ok it isn’t. But even Smash 3DS had people breaking street date.
no same day as us
It releases in the 21st in America too lel
I thought it was 28…
Not in Amer Eurika
Yeah, I checked again, fortunately we’re the same time.
The Europe because they selfish and leak stuff early
Oh, so it’s Europeans that have to suffer.
But honestly, Canadians (no offense) should’ve been also hit by the delay since they also broke X/Y street date.
I often ask myself, “How are the Final Gen VI Main Games supposed to top ORAS?” Give us Primal Zygarde X and Primal Zygarde Y, along with a few more new Megas? Great.
No Primal…..
Order forms that sit
Just for the record, I don’t want a Primal Zygarde, but I fear that it’ll happen anyway.
You get a Mega, I get a Mega, we all get Megas! Something however tells me, that we may not be getting any Mega Evolutions after Generation VI. Because ORAS will tell the origin/dive deeper into the story of Mega Evolutions. I think Z/X2/Y2 will be the installment where all the Megas from X and Y and ORAS and even more in Z will come together in the final version(s) of Generation VI. I think the total # of Mega Evolutions will be at 70 something. 30 in XY, 25 in ORAS, and 20 in Z/X2/Y2. That Hiro guy who leaked the Fairy types also said the Mega Evolutions were there to even out competitive play or something.
In final Gen VI, you get to ride bikes indoor.
I was just out hoenn’d DDDDDD:
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:
This can’t be possible how how how howh ow]efljdscmnx,
It’s okay Djja. I get out sinnoh’d all the time. That’s what I get for only playing Platinum and not Diamond and Pearl. Oh. did I just say that out loud?
#ShamefulActsOfSadness
IT HAPPENED 3 MORE TIMES D::::::::::::::::::::::
Platinum is the only good Sinnoh game.
FOUR DDDDD:::
Primal/Mega Rayquaza should be revealed on the 3rd or at least even more majorly hinted to as if it wasn’t already hinted enough. I hope it’s Primal though because it would make much more sense. And I can imagine getting a new move and ability like Groudon and Kyogre’s except that it clears out the weather and keeps it clear as long as Rayquaza is out on the field. But like Dicie said earlier, I have this little inkling in my head that they are gonna pull a trollface act and just reveal the silhouette and force us to wait until Saturday night and that they’ll put something out of left field. Perhaps the Mega that is exclusive in the demo? I’m gonna go a limb and I know this sounds ridiculous but I think that it may have something to do with Deoxys because the purple stone in it’s chest looks like it could fit a Mega Stone or something. And I have a feeling it will be linked to Mega Evolution along with Rayquaza. Perhaps Rayquaza shot down Deoxys’s meteor long ago and pieces of it scattered throughout the world and were embedded with a special energy. In the Granite Cave painting, a meteor like feature was seen.
EDIT: I shrunk it.
Omgggg so much reading. ;-;
Ikr…. when i see stuff like this my head hurts
Oh, I’m so sorry. I hate when I do this.
I get to embedded into my thoughts sometimes and go crazy. 🙁
No, it’s not you. I’m just lazy. 🙂
I think it’s okay, you should just space it to more paragraphs so it’ll be easier on the eyes.
I shrunk it. Lol.
i stopped reading after K
I didn’t read it all, but I skimmed it. Primal/Mega Rayquaza should just be shown off in this final CoroCoro before November. It might be shown off in this Special Demo or the upcoming live stream.
I believe Rayquaza has no connect to Deoxys in the games. It was just for the movie. So, I believe that Rayquaza is one it’s own. The Granite Cave painting was showing Rayquaza as the Delta. The Prime Removal of Groudon/Kyogre.
I wonder what the next x/y japanese anime ending song will sound like… y’know, the one touted as the “girliest ending theme ever”…
Oh yeah, and with ORAS coming out, think May will appear in the anime?
(and get into a catfight with Serena, perhaps)
It will feature Pikachu and have 5 year olds singing.
Not when it’s being sung by Shoko Nakagawa (a.k.a. Shokotan a.k.a. Shedinja Girl) and is billed as Serena’s Image Song…
edit: Oh wait, even if that were the case I wouldn’t count out Pikachu. Just the 5 year olds.
If you see this TC, sorry, I had to go, but I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
Ok bye 🙂
That’s cool, we can do something later. Take care. =)
Yeah, sorry about that, maybe tomorrow?
And you too.
Sure, later in the afternoon or evening.
I have a feeling this will be the end of the stream on October 3rd.
They’ll just show a silhouette of Primal/Mega Rayquaza. (Refresh for image)
GameXplain answered my question, yaaaaaaaay!
Really? What was it?
Something like “Are you disappointed that some of the leaked characters didn’t make the cut?”
Ah, that makes me curious, were they disappointed at no Chorus Men, Chrom, etc.?
Ash Paulsen answered it and said that he really wanted Chorus Men, and welcomes the possibility of DLC. Andre did not add anything XD
Oooooh more ORAS info. Hypehypehypehype
Why is it that we know release dates for the demo for all other countries except the USA? Considering it’s the second largest market for Pokemon.
demo confirmed in south africa o.o
Everywhere has a date but North America. Damnit Arceus! Lol.
I posted an image similar to this down below but fixed it. Sorry for spam.
I have a feeling this is how the stream may end on Friday… (Refresh)
“It has been confirmed that more anime episodes are to be added to iTunes in the US and Europe. These episodes encompass the series based on Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire and is under the moniker, Pokémon the Series: Ruby & Sapphire. At the moment, Pokémon Advanced is available for purchase, but the rest of the series will come out soon. Pokémon: Advanced Challenge, will arrive October 13; Pokémon: Advanced Battle, will arrive October 27; and Pokémon: Battle Frontier, will arrive November 10.”
-serebii.
YES
YESSS
the best pokemon anime on itunes FINALLY
Fueling up the ORAS hype train even more! 😀
By the time I wake up, the stream will have 3 hours left, so I won’t miss the big announcement. 🙂
Thanks for letting me know, I’ll probably get up at 5:45.
…Same here. o.o
Um.
Guys.
Xatu = Dicie confirmed I think.
We both get up at the same time in the morning.
Uber wakes up to observe!
#Uber4SmahConfirmed.
I normally get up at 6:15, but whenever there’s a 6AM Nintendo Direct I get up at 5:45.
I’m betting they will reveal the Mega Lati twins.
I need this
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1412221959789.jpg
I doubt they’ll make her (and Ash!) that much older in the anime…
I mean look at that chest…
You know what, I STILL believe in Mega Milotic!! I may have believed a little less, just so I don’t feel disappointed later (expect it won’t happen, it may actually happen), but a part of me still said, ‘There’s still a chance! Don’t lose hope!’, so I still hope for a Mega Milotic, and if there isn’t then here’s my logic:
TrollFreak just believes Milotic is beautiful and strong enough, and if it gets a mega, then it may be interpreted as Milotic not being beautiful enough and must receive an upgrade.
I think Mega Milotic might be post-game.
I don’t really subscribe to that line of reasoning.
Maybe the Mega increases its strength with the same beauty.
