Pokémon ORAS Review Round-up

The embargo for ORAS review has lifted and reviews are now out in the wild. I’ve rounded up some of them here. Are you excited for ORAS launching this Friday (or next week) and are you curious if they live up to the hype. Spoilers: Nope, they are the worst Pokémon games ever.

  • Gamespot – Give these remakes enough time, and you begin to understand why Pokemon’s formula hasn’t changed much over the years. It’s a seemingly simple and cute journey, but with the underlying potential for strategy in combat, and a massive number of adorable Pokemon to catch, you can’t help getting hooked by Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. 8/10
  • GoNintendo – Overall, Pokémon Alpha Sapphire is a good improvement over the original Sapphire as well as last year’s X/Y releases. While it may not be the right game for players to jump back into the series or into it for the first time, it’s more enjoyable with a lot of streamlined features while adding new design elements that attempt to engage players in more aspects of the game.
  • IGN – As a 3D remake, Pokémon Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby do a fantastic job of reintroducing Hoenn. Little details, like characters turning their heads to look as you pass or flocks of Wingulls flying overhead, make the region really come to life, and small updates and tweaks help make the journey smoother.
  • Joystiq – Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire do little to overhaul the major pillars of a series that’s long relied on the same set of classic ideas, but they don’t have to. The core mechanics of Pokemon remain immensely addictive, and Game Freak’s latest coat of polish only enhances an already captivating adventure. 4.5/5
  • Nintendo World Report – Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are way better games than last year’s X/Y while also improving on the Game Boy Advance originals. 9/10
  • Daely Reviews – With the lack of Mega Flygon, no Mega Milotic and no Battle Frontier, these are literally the worst Pokémon games ever. Ever. 2/10.

There are more reviews on Metacritic, which all seem favourable so go check them out!

  1. Is the last review real or is it a joke? I’m tired of listening to complains about the possibility of the games not having any new Mega Evolutions, we have a lot of new features and also the guys that make the reviews play loads of games and some may not be real Pokémon fans! We know much more about the games and we’ll enjoy the games much more!

  2. Can’t believe this game comes out in three days! Pretty much expected these kinds of reviews for it as well. Most Pokémon games average about 8/10 anyway 🙂

    Reply
  3. Only 2 days left for us midnighters ^_^

    Not reading any reviews cause no one elses opinion on the game matters. I know the games will be 10/10 for me.

    Haven’t watched any gameplay videos either – not spoiling that for myself.

  4. LOL. Who peed in your cornflakes, Dae? 😉

    I kind of knew these games would get awesome reviews. I mean, seriously, it’s Hoenn in 3D. And you get to go into space. FUCKING SPACE. What’s not to love?

  5. For those of u who do midnight releases: Y? sure u get it earlier than people that go at a reasonable time, but still…….I choose not to do midnight release bc honestly…..I’m not staying up all night to play a game. This guy has to b wide awake to enjoy something as good as Pokemon lol

    Reply
    • If I could, I’d get it at midnight just so that I’d have it ready to play when I get out of class on Friday. But I wouldn’t stay up all night because I have class at 9 (not that early) but I need sleep or I will not stay awake..

  6. “Hoenn” “Too much water” “Too many HMs”
    This is why IGN shouldn’t write reviews.

    Expect a much better and informative review on RetryLevel.

  7. “Hoenn” “No Mega Milotic”” “No Battle Frontier”
    This is why Dae shouldn’t write reviews.

  8. Should I name my female Milotic “Aurora” or “Nagini”? I like Aurora because it’s kind of a play off of an oar fish which is what milotic is based on and also aurora is a pretty name that seems to fit. But I like Nagini because I live for naming my pokemon after Harry Potter stuff.

  9. well i’m back from the bank
    after reading all the reviews i’m not too surprised that they weren’t 10/10, i mean sure the Hoenn Region is often a fan favorite, and new graphics and features will appeal to veteran gamers but said veteran gamers have come to always expect more and more with each game and if it doesn’t deliver said expectations then it can never be the 10/10 dynamite game of the year
    I mean you can load a game with all the bells and whistles and make the gameplay and stories beyond good but there will always be somebody or group of gamers who nit pick every cell of every graphic or sentence dialogue and if they don’t like it one bit they will never rank it perfect

    Where do you stand?

  10. So leaker confirmed that no bf or new megas to be seen after completeing the games but he said npc:s have been hinting for something being build and pokemon reacting to new stones

  11. No battle frontier is a Really Bad move.. it was a Lot of people’s favorite. But I am sure this is because the XY last installment is not too far from release can’t think if a better reason..

  14. 7.9 seems like a decent rating for ORAS from IGN.
    They put a lot of thought into all of their reviews, so this is no different.
    Keep in mind they can’t give it a 10/10 just because “Hoenn is bae” or even for nostalgia.
    They see things a lot differently than we do, that’s their job. Writing reviews requires in-depth research into every part of a game, which is something we as ordinary gamers do not normally look into.
    HMs in this game and field moves overall are definitely more overwhelming than XY.
    (Dive, Flash, Secret Power…)
    And water has always been a big problem in Hoenn.
    I completely agree with their rating, again due to their full research of the game.
    (And you guys can’t even judge them for giving it 7.9 because you don’t even have games yet smh.)

    (Repost from last article because I didn’t know there was a new one.)

    Reply
    • I have the opposite view. In that us as fans would look more deeply into the games and reviewers will barely scratch the surface, since like you said they see it as a job as opposed to actually enjoying the game.

      If that makes any sense.

  15. School is evil… It prevents me from seeing all the recent leaks. So what has leaked in the past few hours besides the cable car and hot springs?

      • Game freak has said b4 that they don’t like dlc…..I could b wrong, but I honestly don’t c it happening….I guess I hope I’m wrong lol

        Reply
        • This doesn’t mean they could make a big update with it in it though. Sure, it’s highly unlikely but Gamefreak has surprised us before. Just look at BW2

          Reply
  16. Okay so why are people saying there are no new mega’s? I would love to see this article that states this. Of course i am pretty sure there cant be one since reviewers are normally not allowed to talk about post-game content and this has always been the case for Pokemon. Also i am pretty sure none of the leakers are in to the post game yet so unless i missed something….

    Reply
  17. While I’m still excited for the game, this definitely disappoints me:

    Daely Reviews – With the lack of Mega Flygon, no Mega Milotic and no Battle Frontier, these are literally the worst Pokémon games ever. Ever. 2/10.

    Reply
  18. Everyone is getting bummed out about no BF! How do we know they don’t have anything planned! WHAT IF the Battle frontier is a TIMED event like the casino event or the extra items in Lilycove department store was! WHAT IF we have to complete the WHOLE story in order to access it. Several trainers in the game state that the Battle Frontier is BEING BUILT SOON! How do we know we are not getting it :D!!!

    Reply
  19. Anyone here besides me find it pretty funny that games like ORAS, LBP3, and Dragon Age are getting some meh reviews, yet when actually played are fun and never find any of the issues they mention (looking at you IGN).

    Reply
  20. It is impossible for ORAS to not feature any new megas besides the ones we already know about. A Nintendo representative specifically stated that there were Megas still left for players to discover. Besides, just because there are no new ones YET doesn’t mean that there will never be any new ones. They could be time based like in XY.

    Reply
  21. Just gonna say this right now, when XY leaked nobody knew what they were doing and said there were no new megas yet when serebii got the game at release, they found all these megas and the looker missions so hold tight m8

    Reply
  22. I still believe battle frontier is there idc what you all will say Im standing by my theory

    Battle resort and frontier brain music is in the game

    they clearly just didn’t unlock it yet.

    Reply
  23. So I saw the pictures of ORAS from the twitter of that guy in Italy I assume, and man all I can say is this was a good month for gaming. Also I want someone to clear this up, could you trade between XY and ORAS, and if so, would it be possible to evolve my Feebas via the Prism Scale from XY to ORAS by trading?

    Reply
  24. While I agree that IGN is ignorant, I did find one interesting thing on their review page. They list all of the currently known megas of ORAS, stating: “below is a growing list of confirmed megas”

    …food for thought.

    Reply
  25. Kotaku, a legit reviewer, said the following:

    “Unfortunately, because of embargo rules set by Nintendo as a condition for reviewing the game prior to release, I can’t be specific about the incredibly exciting things that happen once you beat the game. Suffice it to say that players will find a ton of things to do once the main story is done—there are many Pokémon to collect, new places to battle, mega stones to find, and story things to tackle. The latter is of particular note, as the game sheds new light on the story in ORAS, as well as other Pokémon games. I’m looking forward to seeing what sorts of wild theories the revelations featured in the post game elicit from Pokémon fans. We’ll have more on that once the game actually launches.”

    Yes, you are reading correctly.
    Kotaku actually loves a game set in Hoenn.

  26. Le spoilers:





















    “* You get the Lati unique to your version after the 5th Gym when Steven Stone gives it to you/takes you to it.The other is obtained via the Eon Ticket

    * Starter Mega Stone given to you at Cave Of Origins”

    sucks that we don’t get to mega evolve our starters until the 8th gym. Tho i’m glad I won’t need to eon ticket (i’m getting both games) and won’t need fly after the 5th gym :3

  27. >Battle Frontier will open after a certain amount of time
    >Mega Stones are just strewn about because they fell from space, and the result of Episode Delta has you destroy the asteroid, raining new stones down upon Hoenn that are findable after a certain amount of time

  28. BF won’t be in ORAS because competitive wifi battling is so much easier to do now compared to older games and more people will be doing that than a BF.

    Reply
  29. Alright Hoopa Twisted Form Speculation!

    Alright we know Hoopa is a Mythic Ghost/Psychic (Or Psychic/Ghost) Mischief Pokemon that loves collecting things and teleports them to a secret location through the use of its hyperspace rings on its body

    Now when its power increases its ring could extend miles in diameter capable of swallowing entire islands

    Now here comes the the form i’m just calling Twisted Form, I’m guessing that its harmful mischievous ways have gone way out of hand and its powers of distorting time and space have gone haywire and each of the severed hands can tear portals at will or if the arms have minds of their own, maybe that’s why its body is filled with so many opening the space time in-between them are out of whack

    Now if anyone remembers This Form type changes to (Can’t remember the primary) to a Psychic/Dark type and its gain some demonic traits (Horns, Pointed tail, Oni Hair and that evil cyclops eye) and learns a new Dark Type move Hyperspace Fury

    I’m curious to find out what drove Hoopa from harmless pranks to their mass of darkness

    Reply
  30. From what I’ve read the Lati twin Soar ability is an interesting one…..u kno in addition to being able to fly where ever u want lol I’d say more but I don’t want to spoil

    Reply
  31. Soar doesn’t completely replace fly and make it irrelevant.
    Why?
    Because now breeding is way easier because of being able to automatically fly by tapping a location on the bottom screen.
    •breed eggs with flame body talonflame in party
    •hatch the eggs
    •tap location
    •check IVs
    •Fly back

    It makes breeding go by WAYYY faster.

  37. IGN gave Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire a 7.8/10 (lul. She could have just made it 8/10.) The reviewers reasoning was that Hoenn had too much water and too many HMs. I understand her problem with HMs. GameFreak just needs to remove Cut and Dive* as HMs. Yet, the too much water part was dumb. Hoenn has always had a ton of water.

    She did give on good point in her review. GameFreak didn’t fix the type in balance in Hoenn. There is a ton of Water-Types relative to Fire and Electric-Types. That’s one huge thing I wish they fixed. Overall, IGN’s review had to be the worst. 7.8 isn’t bad; but their criticisms were.

    Reply
  38. Ok this made me laugh so hard. I can’t get over the stupidity (not causing any problems) of igns review so to ready the Daely reviews was so funny XD

    Reply
  39. Daely can go stick a missile up his ass. And besides it isn’t really guaranteed that there are no more mega evolutions. Remember that a few mega evolutions were a secret in X & Y until one lucky person figured out how to get them. Just wait until the games are out and wait a little while and eventually we’ll find the new mega evolutions. As for the Battle Frontier, I knew it wouldn’t be in ORAS. The Battle Frontier was introduced in Emerald, not Ruby & Sapphire and also, with Pokemon contests being an exception, when Nintendo removes something or updates it (as they did with walking with your Pokemon in HGSS), they don’t usually go back and at the moment, the most modern form of something like the Battle Frontier is the Battle Maison.

  41. OMG I’m finally done IV breeding and EV training my 30 babies!

    Before I waste my life, is raising their levels to 100 necessary for competitive battling?

    Reply
  42. So just to be clear the level balancing has been fixed from r/s/e right? because that was my biggest problem in emareld. My pokemon kept being too under-leveled

    Reply
  43. *sigh*
    Stop whining about stupid battle frontier already. I don’t care if its in the game, I hated it in the original, and I see no point in it. 🙁 In my opinion it is a waist of time. I understand that there are a lot of people who do like it, but there are an equal amount of people like myself who don’t give two shits about it.

    Reply
  44. Honestly, other than the (bs) argument that Battle frontier weren’t in the original games, I don’t see what excuse or logical reason GameFreak could have for not bringing back one of the best features of the gen 3 games, and loved by most. Seriously, if its not in these games I’m gonna be pretty upset.

    Reply
  45. *Tears* No Mega Milotic/Flygon. GREAT now I’m gonna have to here “Where’s Mega Flygon” for the next pokemon games.

  46. The ORAS midnight release at Gamestop will be my first midnight release ever. I can’t think of a better game for that to be for than these ones. It’s so perfect.

  49. Here’s an interesting concept from someone on YouTube:

    “I think there’s a good chance of it being a time-based thing. We know that the real-time mechanic exists because it was in the demo, so maybe after you beat the Delta Epsiode a timer starts for the Frontier to be built.”

    What do you guys think?

  67. It is a shame we have to hear the words of “Where is Mega Flygon?” for the next pokemon games oh well. I have thought about it lately and Megas aren’t the primary focus of the game yet we have all been sucked into that being the meaning Megas are really just ways to spice up old Pokemon and I think all of us should just be happy we got Gen 3 remakes and not we got 20 megas.

  70. I’m still not convinced that we won’t get more Megas. We were told we would get hidden mega stones and no one seems to remember that. Game dumps? Bullshit. We won’t have proof until Friday. Leakers say stuff, but that doesn’t mean it’s true. They tend to want to stir the fan bases. I won’t believe anything until we get the games ourselves.

  77. For the same reasons that Djja left, I’m leaving until Friday as well. I believe Gamefreak is trying to psych us out is all. Just remember they’ve done it before with BW2. Don’t let these data mines influence how you feel about the games. REMEMBER, Gamefreak didn’t even have to make these games. They did it as a fan service. The least we can do is give it a fighting chance! Besides, we’ll all know everything by Friday.

    • Well, this is how i see it. Sure people are saying “no more megas” or “no BF” for one reason or another. But there is still one reason we should love the game all the same, and it reads like this: HOENN BITCHES. at least that’s how i see it.

  82. Anyone else getting fed up of hearing people complain about IGN’s review…. seriously 7.8 is respectable and coming from IGN (who are notorious for never scoring remakes higher than 8.5) it is actually a 9.2/10 in terms of remakes. When they say too much water they are talking about how in their opinion the game is unbalanced. It is their opinion, they are entitled to one as much as we are and i know that some of you do not like the amount of water in the game, i personally love it but not everyone does.

    Reply
    • I agree that IGN is great, but the review about pokemon OR/AS was stupid.
      reasons:- HMs were the same in previews generations and no one did complain about them.
      – ‘Too much water’… I was pissed when I saw this. OF course there’s no balance, the most space of our planet is water and Hoenn is a tropical region, so it’s normal that these game contain ‘too much water’.

      Reply
      • Yes but they are comparing this game to other pokemon games so technically in comparison to XY (5 HM’s) ORAS does have more and are relied on more to progress in the story so that is what they mean. As for the water that is them criticising the region in comparison to others such as Sinnoh and Kalos where there was less water routes. Unfortunately when you have a series of games, the newest is always going to be compared to the last one regardless of how relevant they are to each other.

        Reply
          • Me Too! Hoenn is my favourite Region because of the water and tropical climate, thats why i love it but for some people (like us) to love it others must hate it.

      • The truth according to me is that they dont really have a problem with the water itself but instead the high frequency of tentacools. if surf appearing pokemon were reduced in their frequency it would have been an improvement from the original. also, HMs, reduced in XY were again increased in ORAS. so the point is not comparing ORAS and the originals, but seeing how ORAS incorporated the improvements from the games of this generation, from the originals. OFC I still hate IGN but this is how i see it from their viewpoint.

        Reply
        • I still like IGN but in this review, they came with a couple of stupid excuses just to show that there are negatives on this game.

          Reply
    • I like to look at the whole “too much water” thing as a joke. The review states it’s about AS. Maybe if they did one for OR they would’ve put “too much land”.

I’m gonna b stuck in a snow storm for the next couple of days and I may likely won’t b able to go out on Friday to pick up a copy of ORAS. If I download, will it b worth it or should I just wait til Saturday if Friday isn’t an option

    Reply
    • well i can’t speak for having X or Y downloaded, but i do have borderlands 2 downloaded on my vita. download vs hard copy in general really comes down to preference. i love having games downloaded but there’s still that wanting to have a physical copy and all. if you want it badly enough, i’d say download it, if it’s not that bad of a want, i say wait the extra day. again, it’s really what you prefer.

    • It was the era of Pokémon Emerald, when thousands of players competed in facing and defeating the Aces Fight the Battle Frontier. Many players are wondering if the remake Ruby and Sapphire Omega Alpha, will be present whether or not the Battle Frontier. By now, we Pokémon Times, we can say with almost certainty, the presence of this area in the remake.

      In fact, some hackers … they released the list of the soundtrack in the demo Ruby Sapphire Omega and Alpha. And with amazement, you may notice the presence of the soundtrack related to the Battle Frontier! The “names” of the soundtrack are: STRM_BGM_VS_BFRONTIER, STRM_BGM_BATTLE_RESORT and STRM_BGM_BATTLE_TOWER. Probably the Battle Frontier will be in the area still covered by clouds of Hoenn. In addition, there are two entries: SEQ_SE_KW_COUNTDOWN1 and

      SEQ_SE_KW_COUNTDOWN2. Maybe it related to space travel with Rayquaza? To find out, we just have to wait for the official release of the two games!

  101. I think Delta Emerald is gonna happen. This time I think it’s going to be a direct sequel to ORAS. In the past, R/S and E were always confusing. Nobody knew which storyline was the official one, and so many people would just go with Emerald because it was the “better” game. I think now is the perfect opportunity to differentiate between the two. R/S and E, while although largely the same, did not have the same plot. They’ve already supplied the back story now to a sequel/update (Delta Emerald). They allude to Wallace replacing Steven, Juan, and a new Battle Frontier being built.

    So my theory is, what if Delta Emerald really does come to be, and they do finally draw the line between the old R/S and E. This time, Tabitha and Shelly take over Team Magma and Aqua respectively (as is hinted in their descriptions). They awaken Groudon and Kyogre AGAIN, and this time the fight everybody wanted happens. We get a slight twist on Emerald’s plot, more megas, and a Frontier. Yay

    Personally, I think that the post game seems to be quite good compared to what we’ve had in the past (think story wise as opposed to facility wise). I mean, we get to go to outer space and battle Deoxys, is this not what everyone wanted in R/S and what was said to happen if you spoke the the people on the 100th launch?

    Say goodbye to the friend safari, the old Safari is coming back and there’s a limited amount of Pokemon (not as much as FS).

    Customization will not return at all.

    Feebas is hard to find again like in R/S/E.

    You get the Diancite in the Pokemon Center.

    O-Powers are returning but are not given to you by Mr. Bonding and they are even easier to get.

    You get the Sablite pretty early in the game along with Alakazamite, Absolite, Diancite, and Mawilite.

    Exp. All returns again and the games are really slow paced like the originals. But the game is pretty easy.

To my knowledge, nobody has beaten ORAS yet (and has had multiple days pass), but maybe once they do, the game will start a timer and will begin constructing the Battle Frontier. And personally, I really hope that happens, because it’s evident that GameFreak tried to incorporate elements from Emerald into ORAS. I mean, just look at Brendan and May’s designs. Do they look like the R/S design? Yes. Do they look like the Emerald design? Yes again. They are trying to combine the elements as much as they can since there probably won’t be a “Delta Emerald.”
    Besides, why introduce time-based events in XY (Mega Stones, Serena battles) if that will just be dropped in the next game(s)?
    Granted, Seasons from BW and BW2 were eventually dropped…
    IDK guys. It’s all one huge jumble of speculation at the moment. We’ll see very soon.

    • I’m hoping for this. Real time events are ehh, but better than nothing. I am not looking forward to buying Delta Emerald (if it is a thing), so ORAS is my only hope haha

  154. I’m actually really happy that I never heard the new Verdanturf Town theme. If anything from these remakes will make me cry, that will be it.

  155. You know what would be cool? If a “Pokemon Maniac” would refer to Lord Helix. The memes in XY are pretty cool, hopefully they continue it here.

  156. So who do you think the Mega Cuff item belongs to?
    Wallace? He seems to have iron rings on his arm. M-Milotic?
    Aarune (or what his name?)? M-Flygon?

  157. A few days ago, some guy on Instagram got into a discussion with me about whether or not there will be new megas in ORAS. He was getting obnoxiously defensive on his position that there wouldn’t be, while I was remaining calm. I mentioned that Masuda said there would be, so he believed me. Just now he felt the need to reply: “I was right, game was confirmed to have no new megas”

    I’ve been staying away from leaks for the last several days – is this true?

  159. Spoiler alert

    To anyone that was hoping for remixed legend music in ORAS, too bad. They literally copy and pasted the song. Ptken is facing Mesprit right now. It’s literally exactly the same as DPPT

  160. Can’t believe all these reviewers are praising the post game content if there is no Battle Frontier. The Delta Episode better be pretty freaking amazing.

  161. It seems there is something that Game Freak is hidding something that just the reviewers got to experience. I mean everyone is talking about how GRAND the postgame is but it seems there are plenty of elements that the game lack. Again this doesn´t change my view on the games… but it feels odd.

    Something else is going on. And we will soon find out. Also this is the third remake of the series. the third generation, And a triangle has 3 sides… Iluminati.
    Half Life 3 confirmed.
