If any EU peeps want the games early, apparently if you change your 3DS region to Australian the games will appear for you to download on the eshop. I have no idea if this works but if it does, that is awesome.

Thoughts?

May is actually cute (thanks Djja)
She got moist
why b2w2 trailer the heros looks more mature?
I want to give Mega Swampert a hug.
Me too. 😀
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALbsX5oXHc8 can’t wait to hear this in ORAS’s soundfront 3
It’s an exact copy/paste.
wat…..
The Legendary music in ORAS is the same that it has been in previous games.
In other words, the music is not remixed.
BOOM SHAKALAKA
You do know I said the music is NOT remixed, right? xD
This is basically feels like Chrismas Eve
Yet I will actually be able to sleep tonight because I’m sick.
OK just re-posting as this is confirmed to work – EU PEOPLE WHO DON’T WANT TO WAIT FOR THE 28TH, GET THE GAMES OFF ESHOP NOW BY CHANGING YOUR 3DS REGION TO AUSTRALIAN!
lol Nice.
You, my friend…
No words. You are a genius.
Ha, I wish I could take credit. Some British guy on youtube is doing a walkthrough and he admitted that’s how he got the game early. I just wanted to pass along the method so others could enjoy it!
yay
I have a number of friends who have done the opposite (i.e. changing an Australian region 3DS to Europe) for smaller scale games like “VVVVVV”. It’s been done before – just the other way around.
Someone just brought many smiles to eros everywhere.
So why can’t we pet Mega Pokémon? D:
You can pet giant hoopa
Is that actually its name? xD
no but it is giant
On ifunny somebody was saying it’s official name is unbound hoops
>There are people in Europe rn getting the games before I do
;~;
I might actually cry when battling Zinnia, her music is too perfect
My first article in a long time on my website.
It’s more of a “housekeeping” article, and how things will work from now on.
http://pikanewsnetwork.wordpress.com/2014/11/20/q-a-with-dicie-omega-ruby-alpha-sapphire-hype/
I am Chuffed with your success. Congratulations
Thank you. I appreciate it. 🙂
I’m crying right now….
BECAUSE IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS IM GONNA BE GRASPING POKEMON MUTHA FUCKING SAPPHIREEEEE
Are you ready?
I was ready 6 months ago when they first announced it. I legit, cannot believe this day has come.
My X file is so deserted. I’m gonna miss it. All of my PC boxes are empty except for 1 of them with a few pokes in it lol
are you ready?
OH MY GOD YOU WILL ABSOLUTELY LOVE ZINNIA’S BATTLE THEME HOLY FUCKING SHIT I CRIED IT WAS SO GOOD
I’m gonna sob like a baby off every.single.theme. in existence. even if its the jingle of me finding an item XD
They made every thing better Heavy I don’t know how they did it
It’s simple math Djja lol.
GF + Pokémon + 3DS + Hoenn + 3 drops of Awesome Sauce = Success for all time
LMFAOOO I LOVE YOU
Djja stop you’re making me tear up and giving me goosebumps. I don’t think I’m ready to take it.
I haven’t watched the credits yet, but I will cry.
Heavy I am SUPER ready!!!
I want to act sick just so I can play all day!!! But I know I shouldn’t
These games define my childhood
Even though my childhood fave feature isn’t there (yet) Its hoenn how can I stay mad? Being mad will just make the whole ORAS experience bad, if I am mad over one thing.
I like how you said yet. Most people still don’t think it’s gonna be in it but I’m pretty sure it is (time based event like how the demo has)
At first I didn’t want it in just to see people mad lol, I got that wish… but now I’m kind of looking forward to it with all of this “secret” hype going around..
Ikr! I hope it comes as time based that would be so epic
I can’t wait to hear the talking to elite 4 theme, the elite 4 battle theme, and the beating the elite 4 Theme
Elite 4 has 3 themes and were so goood in RSE
I wonder how they will do in ORAS
They’re amazing
Goodnight sexy people (me)!
And good luck to those midnight/10 pm people!
I have to wait until probably 5 tomorrow night now FML!
Hang in there bud… Atleast you know it’ll be worth the wait!! Goodnight and goodluck 😉
Check your twitter ;~;
Kmskmskmskms
You’re not sexy and people will have beaten the elite four hours before you even gaze at a physical copy
Hey you
Yeah you
Remember that mega Excadrill you wanted?
Well it didn’t happen
Now go cry
you forget my good chump, Mega Milotic didn’t happen and that’s way better then Mega Excadrill
And you wonder why me an heavy depicted you as a killjoy
hmmm well you really didn’t hear the tone how i said it
I said it in a playful mocking yet endearing way
Not mean or deadpan
Has anyone noticed that PJN’s Icon (the Hoenn Starters on the top left corner) changes?
Yes
a thought occurred to me
If there isn’t any Customizations how does the PSS tell everyone apart? besides other icons
I was thinking bout dat to..
Uses our mii characters?
naw,
unless you want to see a solid wall of Phallic Symbols (Don’t laugh you have one too)
My jaw just dropped when I heard this.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFoQotyP0Tw
Holy shit.
Lorekeeper Zinnia IS POWERFUL!
its beatiful
https://i.4cdn.org/vp/1416508508639.gif
New Hoopa form is confirmed to be called “Unbound Hoopa.”
I heard Hoopa Unbound lol… same difference XD
New Heavy form…. Unbound Heavy.. I get +80 stat increase, 30 of those stats go to my Throat stat. I’m a good s***er. In order to get this form, I have to be holding ShadyPenguite
I want a final form (or a Semi-Final form so i can menacingly shout THIS ISN’T EVEN MY FINAL FORM
i’d probably have three forms
Rock Earthen (My standard Boss form)
Crystal Earthen (Kinda a more silent wiser evil form with gem attacks)
and finally Erupting Earthen when i go ballistic and i radiate searing magma
I want to learn everything about it
we now know that that its power was sealed away
now every troupe knows that’s a red flag for not good
and the severed arms can move at will
I love how people are still trying to defend Gamefreak for removing the Battle Frontier and not adding more megas. I wonder when Gamefreak will stop the yearly release bs and actually release a complete game.
It could end up being a Day One patch that comes out on November 28th to coincide with the European release.
No new megas…somewhat understandable….I’m sure we’re all pissed. No Battle frontier….zero excuse….absolutely zero. Like I cannot fathom why GF would ever leave this out of this game
… I knew I shouldn’t have come back here. ._.
*sobs in corner*
Game corner got removed stand in the middle of the room
Did they replace with some arcade or something? Or would that be a spoiler? Is it replaced with something better?
There’s just a note on the door that says thanks for playing.
;~;
Nope its gone fucking soccer moms…
They may add a patch to add these things so nobody could leak it early would be clever.
I love optimism.
That doesn’t make a lot of sense from a marketing standpoint.
Well, GameFreak doesn’t make sense.
We all expect Pokemon Gray, and we get BW2, for example.
And now, I expect X2Y2/X0Y0, but they may go back to their old ways and really give us Z.
Don’t be quick to judge. Wait after several weeks or so, then you can decide.
Ya really never know Gamefreak is known for throwing curveballs.
INB4 someone leaks new Megas hidden in ORAS’ ROM, but we can only get them, without cheateing, in the next games. Like Mega Latios and Mega Latias in XY. Speaking of hidden Pokemon, why hasn’t GF mentioned Volcanion and AZ’s Floette yet? And has Hoopa been officially confirmed?
Um……I don’t mean to b that guy…..but who r u to say that ORAS is an incomplete game? It may not have all the stuff that people want, but at the end of the day if it has the stuff the creators want then it’s a complete game……so yeah……lol
I’m still psyched about ORAS, regardless of the absence of Mega Milotic and Flygon. I’d still use those two and even Altaria. Already many of my favorites have received Megas, so I’m glad. But apparently TF knew what is my ULTIMATE FAVORITE Pokemon and exempt it from getting a mega.
Besides, there is tons of new mechanics and features that will make this game one of the very best in Pokemon history. On top of that, there is a legit post-game story plot to keep you rolling even after becoming the champion. So, with that, I declare ORAS to be the best Pokemon games GameFreak *coughtrollfreakcough* will ever create. Cheers.
#Notbutthurtm8
Till the next game is announced.
Yeah, but for now, let’s just live in the Hoenn moment.
True. True.
my only fear is who i’m going to catch for my team
I’m confoosed. What do you mean you fear who you’d catch?
He’s not sure who he’s gonna catch yet.
He hasn’t finalized his ideas.
Maybe Ludicolo for type coverage.
OR
Are you looking for a balanced team, Pokemon above a certain base stat, etc?
Hells no, I keep Pokemon that i either like or have gotten me out of a jam and i owe it to them
Did i ever tell you the Sawk Story?
Nope, please do. :3
Well i just managed to get a actual Translated Black Rom working for the first time and i couldn’t wait to get started
as i progressed got beaten by Lenora twice and decided to train and while i was training outside pinwheel i found a Sawk and knowing they were rare i caught it but paid very little mind to it, but in the rematch Tepig and Drilbur got K.O’d easily and Sawk easily beat Lenora and i decided to keep him on the team
Cool! 😀
and i just kind it a tad odd
Normally i would never pick a tall lean Pokemon over a beefy one
But Sturdy has saved my butt so many times
and the Retaliate attack was REVENGE
Sturdy is good when used, but used against. Especially with Graveller and Skarmory. I like Skarmory. I used to be predominately Special attackers, but now I use both offenses, though still leaning slightly towards special attackers though.
Me, i’m just a bare fisted brawler who’s best and only tactic is to power through clobbering foes silly
im guessing he somehow found his socks
well over the last few months i’ve been playing RSE Roms and i’ve found myself catching the same exact Pokemon (Except that Ground Mono)
Starter
Hariyama
Aggron
Grumpig
Flygon
No other pokemon really catch my eye (I’m naturally prone to large physical attackers)
Grumpig’s physical? o.0
It isn’t, so it’s a special case?
Grumpig’s kinda a new partner that just kinda happened
Honestly it was just a versatile Special attack something i rarely use
