The official site for Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire has been updated with the details we saw in November’s CoroCoro issue and more!
Mega Steelix & Mega Glalie
Revealed in the demo are two new mega evolutions
Mega Latios & Mega Latias
A trailer of ‘Soar’ in action, ie: ability to fly over Hoenn, can be seen here on the main site.
Mega Pidgeot
Pidgeot Mega Evolves into Mega Pidgeot. The gusts it can whip up with its tough and well-developed wings are powerful enough to smash huge trees.
Upon Mega Evolving, its Sp. Atk gets a great boost. Take good advantage of its zippy Speed stat, and you can pummel opponents in no time flat. Its No Guard Ability means its attack will never miss—nor will attacks used against it. You can be sure of dealing damage even with moves that have low accuracy. – Official Site
Mega Beedrill
Beedrill Mega Evolves into Mega Beedrill. The poison it produces from its four limbs all work instantaneously, yet the poison it emits from its tail is slow-acting. It uses the former to prevent its foes from fleeing, and the latter to deal the finishing blow.
Mega Evolution gives its Attack and Speed stats an explosive boost. Adaptability is an Ability that increases the power of moves of the same type as the user from the standard 150% to 200%. Put it together with this Pokémon’s powerful Attack stat and aim for massive damage! – Official Site
PokéNav Plus
- DexNav – Can show information about Pokémon in your location, chaining Pokémon encounters can result in finding ones with Hidden Ability and rare moves
- AreaNav – Map with additional functionality such as trainer information, berry locations, and secret bases
- BuzzNav – “TV” style blurbs about Hoenn and other players you encounter via StreetPass
- PlayNav – Allows access to the Player Search System, Super Training, and Pokémon-Amie

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Why only four moves? by Smitje
My favorite part of today so far has been the fact that Milotic was battling a mega Latias.
Mine was that Mega Steelix was revealed
the better serpentine
You won’t be saying that when you get a scald to the face. Steelix’s Sp.D sucks.
not if it gets metal burst
Resisted.
You have no clue what metal burst does, do you?
I do, lmao. xD
Nope LOL
I knew it was one of those weird moves, lmao. Damage deals 1.5x damage taken. But it should do resisted damage too, or nah?
it’s basically counter and mirror coat without negative priority and does x1.5 rather than x2
Nah. It’s not resisted from when I’ve used it. I’m not even sure if it affects weaknesses.
It takes damage and multiplies the damage taken by 1.5 and returns it. That’s why I use it on Bastiodon.
Replying to wrong person XD
and besides what if it gains Special Defense
then i can use Sand Force Earthquake and do away with that runner up
Believe Liza and Tate just made a cameo outside their gym on the streamers playthrough of the demo 😀
I love how all the doors are locked in the demo. It was becoming graphically stunning I had to shut it off from prevent any more spoiling lol.
Help me decide guys… should I get my bud to grab me a Glalie from Firered with move tutor moves Body Slam & Double Edge… (which are now refridgerated)…
or should I just stick with my kalosian one & explosion & headbutt? :/
just wait 1 month when they reveal move tutors (if)
I feel like there is so much content already packed in ORAS that tutors & battle frontiers would kill off the sales for the final XY installment. I don’t think tutor moves will make it in, and instead their just updating movepools of a few.
then just get the body slam/double edge one xD
We’re watching the same stream. :3 LMAO
Go boom.
Milotic doen’t have a Mega Evolution 🙁
That made me smile
Why?
He hates Milotic.
I think his the first person that hates Milotic
I have a strong dislike for it for many reasons
mainly because everyone thinks it deserves a Megalution even though no Pokemon is guaranteed one,
besides Altaria took its place as the contest mega
Okay your hatred doesn’t make sense
how does that not make sense
Fine for some of you his hatred make sense but for me it doesn’t everyone has different opinions
Also people want it to become a Water/Fairy even though it has absolutely nothing to due to with fairies and they’re basing this only on its looks and nothing else
It would be cool that combination but she looks more like water and dragon. And you’re right people want it to be water and fairy because she looks more like a mermaid
It does actually it’s like I hate Charixard because it’s overrated. It is btw
You can say the same about how I feel about dunsparce
I want to kill all dunsparce
yet*
Milotic is my favorite Water type, but I don’t see it getting a mega
It was shown battling a mega Latias… I believe in the trend.
Hydreigon was shown battling Gardevoir before XY
You’re dumb. It was a regular Gardevoir, not a mega Gardevoir.
You’re looking for trends out of bias bby
Shut up, it’s gonna happen. Leave me alone and go hug your obese fluffy bird.
Ouch, so defensive. Where’s basti
But seriously, most everyone here believes in the trend. Don’t be like this just because it’s a Milotic. You’re almost as bad as Earthen.
I’m bad, and that’s good. I will never be good, and that’s not bad. There’s no one I’d rather be than me.
My reasoning is completely different from Earthen’s lmfao
i think we hit a nerve boys
Yeaaah mine to and you’re right from the looks of it they wont give Milotic a Mega
Earthen whats your friend code? I might have t leave in a sec so if you csn, I csn give you your late birthday present
Wow, I cant spell
i think i have you let me get on right now
my IGN is IAN
Oh yeah, I do i think
Im online 🙂
Will be back later… Off to several gamestops (all lined up on the same street) to pick up multiple Gengar Codes to give out.
Watch everyone come home from school in a few hours like “OMG MEGA GLALIE & STEELIX CONFIRMED GUYS” posting screen shots that we’ve seen for hours XD #tooslow
I’ll reply to every post with a picture of Mega Slowbro
Apparently, simkimmo will be giving out gengar and diancie codes in a bit
He works at gamestop soooo
simkenno is bae <3
I love you simkimmo!
GG, Edgaroth!
Liza and Tate 😀
WHERE
refresh 🙂
Those are gym signs hun…
Nuh uh.. look at the ahir… you can see Liza’s white hair ribbons on the one in the right.
We’ll seee
You could see them clearer earlier in his stream but i wasnt quick enough with the screen cap.
Also. No gym Signs as it is on the roof of the gym. http://i.ytimg.com/vi/G-rui8ICaK4/0.jpg
no i played the demo and i can definitely say that that are liza and tate
OMGGGG! I NEED A BETTER PICCCCC
Oh my god Mega Steelix and Glalie.
Add Sharpedo in from a month ago….and it’s Jaws: Pokemon Version.
no goatee 2/10
I love both designs though. Glalie looks like it’s jaw is detachable.
One thing before I go… Junichi just confirmed trainer customization is not in oras (which I been saying)… next up is battle frontier. I can’t wait ^_^
The bae Quenn Lucy <3
Been saying that about trainer customisation since day one
Link to interview? I love reading those
Don’t have a link but serebii posted this:
Edit @ 18:39: Interview at USGamer confirms that Trainer Customisation is not in this game
Yes, an IGN reviewer also got the same answer from Junichi.
Is there still a type combo with no weaknesses? I know elektross is but thats only because of levitate. Mold breaker excadrill can break that
No, with fairy types showing up there is no longer any pokemon without a weakness.
Enjoy the buneary earthen! Adamant, egg moves, love ball, and IVs in all but special attack!
Sweetness
and enjoy a Earthen Brand Rhyhorn complete with Adamant Rock Head and in a Safari Ball and a special Egg Move
😀 wooh! I just need a protecter than Ill and earthen brsnd rhyperior
but alas i do know know the IVs
You uhhh wouldn’t happen to have anymore of those would you?
Plenty! Let me finish this battle im having with this random guy on the pss first
Okay, what would you want for one?
Idc any shinys or 5ivs
XD
Nahthey dint have to be shiny, just ivs please
Fc?
4442-0012-5862. Sorry wasn’t looking. I’ll trade a shiny. What’s your FC?
2191-7850-5254 ign: Jamie
Does it matter what shiny?
By the way…This trailer was epic. My 2 favourite legends 3D overworld models are insane.
The flying over Hoenn was just beautiful.
that’s all mega in that demo or what ?
It looks like you either get a different mega depending on where you live (so far Japan has Steelix and Korea has Glalie) or a different one each day is also possible.
thank u for making this clear , just 2 country for today ?
So far they are the only countries with access to the code that are now able to enter it as it is the 15th there.
hey i forgot i have that 5IV Shiny Starly
What About the Battle Frontier?
Trainer customization isn’t the only feature that Pokémon fans want to see in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. The Battle Frontier, which features a variety of advanced challenges in a theme park-like setting, is another popular feature that has lately been absent from the series. Will it also be missing in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire?
When I asked Ohmori, he seemed to consider his words carefully: “All I can really say is that we have quite a lot of content for after players finish the game this time around. We also have a lot of features like contests and secret bases, so right now we’re only really talking about those.”
Ohmori did, however, confirm that move tutors will be in this version, and that certain Pokémon will be able to learn moves they couldn’t learn before. As for the rest of the postgame content, expect an optional quest centered around Mega Rayquaza, plus the usual array of legendary Pokémon and hidden dungeons.
is this from the interview?
Yes http://www.usgamer.net/articles/so-does-pokemon-omega-ruby-and-alpha-include-trainer-customization
ahhh
Hmm….sounds to me like it will be omitted after all. How sad
Or he just doesn’t want to spoil it
True. It’s just the bit where he says there is a lot of content for players to focus on
I’m still a bit optimistic. For starters we still have not seen a clear image of the island where the Battle Frontier is located. And of what we have seen there is scant image of some kind of structure there.
alright i gotta go exercise
see y’all in a bit
HOLY wat.
Mega Steelix looks hella awesome and Mega Glalie looks a bit weird but still cool.
But wat. US demo through a newsletter D: DARN IT WHY
This makes me sad D: I really hope that those Megas aren’t exclusively through the demo cause then that’s just a bit unfair.
I don’t see why they would. To get the Demo though, you have to make a Trainer Club Account, and you’ll be emailed the code in 6 days IIRC. I made two. One for myself and my brother. I so want the one the one that has Mega Steelix. :3
Really? 😀 I CAN STILL GET THE DEMO!?!
Uber, tell me where to go. Please. I need it.
Here you go!
https://sso.pokemon.com/sso/login?locale=en&service=https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-trainer-club/caslogin
Made one! 😀
Now the waiting game begins….
*after 2000 years* *still waiting*
xD I hope I don’t wait that long!
Why is Steelix NU? Wtf? xD
So…
does anyone have an idea of how to use glalie?
Refrigerate Explosion.
SPLOSIANNNN The End.
Refrigerate Headbut
Nope i don’t think it can even close its jaw
I’m going to establish the Give Handless and Feetless Pokemon The Rights They Deserve Foundation
I second this motion
How much is membership?
yeah i think it’ll just swallow you whole
attack attack attack before they attack you…..isn’t that 90% of pokemon “strategies”
In 6th gen? pfft. nawwwwww
ok so you have 1 turn of prep now and then attack lol xD
I like the whole Refrigerate explosion idea but depends on move tutors
Explosion is move tutor? It should be a TM
I just meant Glalie with explosion sounds good. But how I use it will depend on what moves it gets from the move tutors.
Oh. Yeah, I was wondering if they were going to add hyper voice to its movepool
Yes, please, that would be amazing.
I doubt I’ll be able to get a demo code. Only 20,000 being distribute by GAME stores in the UK
Unless I misread that.
Which Demo has Mega Steelix and Mega Glalie. I want to transfer the Steelixite into my OR game. :3
Japanese and Korean
If megas are based on location (Japan and Steelix, Glalie and Korea) we could be seeing more this afternoon in Europe. Who knows? 😮
So much hype
im pretty sure that’s the speculation
This is actually very interesting. I worder if they will group all of Europe into one or not.
Also 5 hours left till midnight in the UK
Hype! Not sure, I’m hoping they split it though, maybe like East Europe and West Europe?
How about as many megas as there are Vivillon :DDDD
YESSSSS. xxDDDD
Most European code issues are though email or stores though so it would be morning in Europe before there is access unless the sites are quick with the emails…. i just hope the official Nintendo store looks down upon me as a loyal pre-orderer of both steelbook versions and says “yes…yes this person deserves a code”.
Inb4 USA has Braviary
confirmed?????
No sir
So UK should get Pryoar
http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9r9pdj4nD1rbkvzjo1_500.gif
have they said how the US is supposed to get the demo from the site tomorrow I already have an account with the pokemon site
serebii said october 21
Does anyone else think M-Glalie and M-Steelix look ugly?
M-steelix has too much going on in the design, and M-glalie just looks… dumb. As if it mated with a pinecone. I’m also disgusted by the unhinged jaw.
Only feel that way about Mega Glalie. Then again, 3d models make me change my mind.
Mega Steelix though looks awesome to me.
yeah, might be the 2D im not liking. Happened before that i liked a pokemon in-game rather than the art.
Yeah, same thing happened with Quilladin and a few others. Didn’t like the art, but loved its design when I saw their 3D models.
