  1. So far i’m loving the game. One thing really bothers me though. On Route 103 where you battle May for the first time, you can see the puddle from the opening on the route. You can also see the mountains from when the camera goes up. The mountains look extremely weird on the route. It almost looks like it’s a flat wall. Idk that bothered me. But yea, the games are amazing, hopefully they’re as good as the originals if not better, which i have heard that they are.

  2. RATE MY TEAMS:::
    AS-
    Swampert
    Pidgeot
    Glalie
    Dusknoir
    Ninetales
    Zangoose/Mightyena

    OR-
    Blaziken
    Gallade
    Sableye
    Flygon
    Walrein
    Exploud/Roserade

    ***I haven’t gotten my versions yet (they are being shipped and will arrive by the time I get home tonight). I can’t decide between Zangoose and Mightyene (Ice and Dark are my favorite types and I already have a Flying/Normal on my team so I’m leaning towards Mightyena for lack of a better dark type, unless I trade from anothre version) for my Alpha Sapphire version, and I can’t decide between Exploud or Roserade for my Omeg Ruby version… What are your thoughts?

    Reply
    • I have three on each team (I have both versions) but I don’t think it matters because you can only use one at a time. And now a lot of pokemon mega evolve so it’s sort of hard not to have more than one. I have (or will have) Swampert, Pidgeot, Glalie on AS and Blaziken, Gallade, and Sableye on my OR team.

  3. So, I went to the midnight release with a friend and have spent 14 hours playing ORAS.
    I picked Mudkip, he Treecko.
    (I also am getting Gardevoir while he has Gallade xD)
    And I found the Steelixite, yay

    How you get Regicigas is some stupid way, I mean you have to nickname your Regice and get it to hold a frozen item like a Never-melt-Ice or CasteliaCone…how is this relevant?!

    So I have a very plausible theory about Mirage Spots. Have any of you noticed that some of the spots have HOOP-shaped portals? It’s because it’s Hoopa being a shady little booty and jacking everything up with its hyperspace powers! I’m certain that Hoopa will eventually get an event explaining this and also explaining its new form.

  6. I bought my bro AS and he picked Treeko. I’ll wait a little longer to buy myself OR due to financial reasons. I’ll pick Mudkip as my starter. This is the first time that my bro’s starter has a type advantage against mine, and I look forward to catching some of my team members (transferring two of them from XY)!

  8. Got the games this morning. Really awesome so far. I can’t wait to look for a Feebas for my team because apparently, they are on any tile now, just as a rare encounter instead!!! That makes it so much easier to use one of my favorite pokemon!

  11. in light of the Article’s question
    I’ve bought both copies and i’ve only opened only Ruby
    I first chose Torchic in spirit of my original one i had when i was a child but turns out it was Modest so i…. soft reset and chose Mudkip but still got hindering natures
    but i set off on my journey
    I hope to just enjoy the story and further my competitive career
    and i’ve found my first wild shiny!!!

    Reply
  12. I chose Treecko because it was my first Pokemon ever and I love it. It was literally love at first sight when I first bought Original Ruby version and saw it on the side of the box xD My first Treecko was Rash nature (Coincidentally enough, I believe that’s the best nature for Mega Sceptile). So in light of that I soft reset for a Rash nature Treecko in Omega Ruby

  13. Kirito the Treecko and I are setting off on our journey through Hoenn in Alpha Sapphire! In Omega Ruby Armstrong the Mudkip will be my partner!

  14. I live in the UK and therefore i have both pre-ordered in steelbook editions for next week but managed to download Omega Ruby from the Australian e-shop last night. I chose to play Omega Ruby first since most of the leakers seemed to be playing Alpha Sapphire so i thought a change would be good.. i chose Mudkip as my starter and i have decided that for the first time in many years that i am going to catch everything as i go along therefore it is taking me a while but i have caught everything up to the point i am at which is:

    Just got my 1st badge with a playtime so far of 5 hours and 20 minutes (2 of those hours was spent looking for Quick Feet Shroomish and another with Drain Punch to breed later on ).
    As i said i am not having a set team per say and am rotating in order to catch em all (ah the nostalgia)…

    My Team as of right now is:
    – Marshtomp Lvl: 17
    – Poochyena Lvl: 14
    – Seedot Lvl: 13
    – Beautifly Lvl: 12
    – Dustox Lvl: 12
    – Zigzagoon Lvl: 11

    Total Pokemon Caught so far: 17

    As it stands i am catching everything available using the Dexnav as i go along and therefore am training things to evolve them and will then rotate.

    • Can we use the DexNav to find a pokemon we haven’t caught yet?
      I don’t feel like running around for an hour trying to find a Synchronize, Female Ralts 😛

      Reply
        • If you can, how?
          I click on the silhouette for Ralts and it says “You have not caught all the pokemon in this area” or something like that, but if i click on Poocheyena (which I have caught), it lets me search for it…
          It does seem, though, that they will randomly appear in the grass w/o having caught them

  37. Guys I need help, so I want to continue playing and not risking my first ORAS shiny being an uncatchable Poochyena. But I also don’t want to give up. I was thinking I would stop at 400 SRs then continue the game. Should I?

    I would also MM a shiny Mudkip if I don’t end up getting it.

  38. Ok so far I’m on route 110 and the extra part of 103. I’m loving these games! The only problem is I found a Poochyena with Fire fang, but he has no place on my team….eventually we will part dear friend until then he can help my Skorupi I hatched level catch up to my Marshtomp and Shroomish lol

        • actually, amie affection isn’t kept. And of course I know EVs, ribbons, and Contest stats are kept. those are kept even from the original ruby and sapphire. I meant like, credit for winning contest ranks, even though you don’t get a ribbon. And super training medals. I think you lose those too, but I am not certain. Amie affection is NOT kept. I know you keep the ribbon if you get it, but you still lose the affection itself anyway, even if you trade it back. I have actually tried this. these types of things seem to be tied to the pokemon, but also the game too.

    After you finish the delta episodes, go to the Mauville pokemon center and talk to the yellow shirt man if you haven’t already. after you’ve received an o power, walk out of pokemon center and go back in. He’ll be there again, talk to him, he’ll leave and tell you to come to Mauville Hills. Don’t go yet; keep going in and out of the pokemon center and receive o powers until you talked twice to the pink shirt guy. then go to Mauville Hills and you will witness The Genesis.

        Reply
        • Either of those works in this team since there is no type crossovers and both provide coverage you need so both would be good. I love Ludicolo but if you have never used a Sharpedo then i say go for it! Its always fun to use pokemon you have never used before.

          Reply
          • Yeah, I always make sure I have no type crossovers (cause waste) and try and have dual types (Damn you Manectric)
            I mean Gardevoir can learn E.Ball so still have one grass move
            Sharpedo just means 4 attackers, 2 sp.attackers, but I think I’ll use Sharpedo, to match Archie’s 😉

    • I recommend Ludicolo because it’s awesome. However a Sharpedo can Surf you through the water much faster. And we all know Hoenn has too much water!

    I won my very first contest yesterday! I entered my Taillow which had Brave Bird, and I managed to pull off First Place in the Coolness subsection. I never won a Pokemon Contest back in the original R/S, so I’m really pleased.
    The one thing I didn’t like about the Contests was that the top screen was just showing whatever was directly in front of my 3DS camera…I didn’t quite understand what that was about.

    I have made a conscious decision to try and make some sort of team up now but will still rotate pokemon in and out to try and evolve them where it is practical to do so but im gonna be focusing less on evolving things now, just catching them and then ill evolve them later using EXP Share once i am battling higher leveled Pokemon.
    So… saying that i am now gonna box Vigoroth and continue working on Ralts and Whismur then im gonna go use my 2 Shroomish i caught earlier to hatch one with its HA and Drain Punch then backtrack a little now i have the bike.

  84. Has anyone found the Lucky Egg yet? I always liked having it on board for special training lol Anyway Right now I’m at Mauville training and my team is this:
    Marshtomp -lv22
    Mightyena – lv21
    Shroomish – lv22
    I ended up getting attached to Mightyena so I decided not to use Skorupi after all. The only thing is that I wish my Mightyena had poison fang instead of Fire fang, but that’s fine I guess bc I might actually use the shiny Beldum. I had no idea it came with good attacks! I thought it was only gonna have take down so I wasn’t gonna take the time, but now I might just do that lol

  86. Review now that I have the game:

    9/10. Hoenn looks awesome! Music is great. Graphics are awesome! Hoenn is life.
    I love to see Hoenn at night. Some elements from X and Y are there, you can tell they built it off of XY’s engine at times here and there. But all good for most part.

    Review based off of the leakers:

    7/10. Post game doesn’t look great. Sounds like it is sorta like XY. Aside from the Delta Episode and capturing Legendaries, which takes only a couple of days.
    Battle Maison repeat of how it looked exactly in X and Y. No fresh coat of paint.
    However, possible Battle Frontier DLC in the works or a sequel. Game Corner was shut down, basically deconfirmed that, where as Battle Frontier is under construction. So possibility of DLC, chance of it right now is I say at 40%. Probably just a herring.

  94. So I just experienced a glitch on the route West of Mauville. I had been on my bike, and when I got off, I was stuck in X/Y 8-grid movement rather than free roam. I reset, and it was still like that, so I got on and off my bike and I was back in free roam again. So if this happens to anyone else, I hope this helps

  95. The only thing I wish wasn’t in ORAS was the frequent teleporting after beating certain gyms or fulfilling certain requirements.
    Part of the difficulty in RS was going from place to place, no matter how hard or tedious it was.

    • Yes, there are.
      You can find Mawilite in Verdanturf Town, which you can access just after the 3rd Gym.
      You can also get Aggronite in Rusturf Tunnel after breaking the rocks that lead to Verdanturf.
      Finally, you can get Alakazite in Slateport City, which can be found in the Marketplace area.
      Those are all I have found so far, but I will let you know when I find more. 🙂

  103. So first, Minun was able to Encore Magnemite into Volt Switch, which doesn’t affect me cause Volt Absorb :3 I then proceeded to Spark it to death even after a Super Potion :3

    Then out came Voltorb, and I tried Singing to put it to sleep, but this time Wattson trolled ME XD Soundproof, so instead I Encored Voltorb into Charge, and again killed it slowly but surely with Spark.

    Then out came Magneton, in a battle of Supersonic, Sing, Swift, and Magnet Bomb, Minun came out on top in the end, NOT HURTING ITSELF at 11 HP (which it then would’ve died to Magnet Bomb), and killing Magneton with Swift :’)

  131. Okay.

    I caught 4 Barboach in the route. Here are their stats:

    #1: Level 25, Water Pulse, Magnitude, Rest, Snore, +Defense -Sp. Def

    #2: Level 25, Same Moves as #1, +Sp. Atk -Sp. Def

    #3: Level 25, Hydro Pump, Magnitude, Rest, Snore, +Sp. Def -Speed

    #4: Level 25, Thrash, Magnitude, Rest, Snore, Neutral Nature

    I’m leaning towards #4, because I could teach it Surf as its Water Attack, plus the Neutral Nature is good for in-game. Plus, Thrash. What do you guys think?

Kyogre’s awakening cut scene after you beat Archie is beautiful too. Archie’s full body model…. Holy fuck. It was so sexy. Omega Ruby will probably be the game that I do competitive with after I play through as May and then as Brendan. Idk. But damn.

  193. Let me tell you all a lil’ sad story:

    Once upon a time, there was a Pokemon. This Pokemon was Gardevoir. I loved my Gardevoir so much. Then came one day I caught Latios (finally) after searching all over. Being the n00b I was, used a Masterball. I got a Latios, which felt good then.
    Then I heard about a cloning glitch.

    I wanted to get multiples of the legendaries I caught in Emerald, and seeing as I had not friends nor a link cable, I cannot and never did traded with anyone in Emerald (well there was one trade for a Roselia, but that’s besides the point). So I decided to do Latios first.

    I was scared, my first time exploiting a glitch, and I felt that if I did it wrong, I’ll lose Latios forever. Oh how my nightmares came true, but not for Latios.

    During the glitch process, I realized I had a full party after I saved in Battle Tower. I went and deposited my First party Pokemon, Gardevoir, in exchange for Latios in my party, for the glitch said to put it in the party and the clone will be in the box, so I was like, “Yay! Another Latios soon!” and proceeded with the glitch.

    When my game back on, I rushed to see the double Latios and lo and behold, my second Latios! But where’s my Gardevoir?

    I looked all over the PC, but alas, my level 60-ish Gardevoir is lost forever. I can’t even remember the nature it was, and had I not done that, would have been a part of my Emerald team to level 100 now.

    I have a level 100 Gardevoir from second playthrough of Emerald (after I traded everything over) with the Gentle nature. I’m sure that other Gardevoir was ‘Lonely’. 🙁

    • I have a living dex as well, minus Yveltal and some event legendaries (which aren’t required). Perhaps I could help with a few tips to get you started.
      1). If you have prior gen games, you can definitely use those to speed the process along.
      2). I found Wonder Trade to be a very useful option as I put mine together (which I did in X).
      3). Remember that your fellow Junglers are always here to help you! =)

    • In the underwater room, go down to the engine room (I think) and just keep clicking A while you’re down there and eventually you’ll find it. The truly evil thing about this game is that you can’t you Dowsing Machine underwater but there are hidden items underwater. I learnt this when I found a Flame Plate by accident while diving and now every time I dive, I continually press A and go into suspicious areas.

      Reply
  218. This is just some stupid theory I made up but I think that they may have a Pokemon game based during the 3000 year old war. I mean, come on, they have released every legendary (excluding event ones) and even made an event legendary just a regular legendary in the games. What could they possibly put in Delta Emerald or even a sequel to X & Y. If they do base the next game during the 3000 year old war, they can actually have Pokemon that could have been claimed to be extinct in the present day games in it. That or they’re just skipping to Gen 7.

      • Not necessarily, after the “you know what” incident, Hoenn became more hospitable for other region Pokémon, as an NPC put it. I encountered an Alomomola using the DexNav before getting the National Dex.

        Reply
        • I know when I transferred buneary over it said ??? in the dex # (Lopunny still has it too)
          Is Alomomola in the national dex? Or was that part of the update (also i have no idea what incident you’re talking about b/c i haven’t finished the game :P)

          Reply
          • When I caught the Alomomola (without having a National Dex), it said “This Pokémon is not registered in Hoenn”. So you can catch Pokémon that are not native in Hoenn, but the dex won’t register it until you get the National Dex.

          • huh strange. Do you recall if Alomomola appeared in the DexNav after catching it? I’ve been to where Buneary appears already and it isn’t in the Dexnav

          • Maybe its because i didn’t actually catch it..? Really strange though, i’ll have to breed a buneary and see if it appears then

          • I evolved my Buneary, but i bred it in Sinnoh (full odds shiny) so it doesn’t have a pentagon
            that’s probably why 😛

    • Norman was pretty challenging tbh, more so than the other ones.
      I had to reply on my lopunny to use substitute and drain punch repeatedly inbetween truant turns (sub on truant, drain punch when it attacks). Ended up being a huge pain with retaliate later though
      Hardest battle so far tho is one w/a Milotic in the rain, took out 3 of my pokemon 😛

          Reply
          • Why Camerupt? I mean, it would help with Flannery and some others later on lol. Gimme a good reason, and I’ll use it! =) Cause I was just gonna go with Sandshrew lol, Camerupt sounds a lot better.

          • I wasn’t thinking, meant Sharpedo. Or Wailord or Milotic.
            I mean, Camerupt is cool and helpful but he’ll just increase your Water weakness, lol

          • Yes, that sounds more like it, and I DID need help in determining the Water Pokemon I’m gonna use (cause I won’t use Wingull/Pelipper forever lol). Plus adding Camerupt would make three Pokemon weak to Ground lol.

          • True.
            There are so many good Hoenn Water pokemon.
            I couldn’t decide for my OR version, since I was using Swampert in AS, I didn’t need one there.
            Leaning towards Sharpedo in OR tho

          • Yeah, I’m really toying with the idea of using Sharpedo as well. Never used one before, so I may choose it like I will with a Heracross, another Pokemon I like but never used before.

          • Ah. I prefer pokemon that evolve twice for some reason xD
            It feels more fulfilling.
            But it looks great so I want to use it 😀

          • Yeah, I totally get that lol. For some reason, I guess it just seems like you gotta put more effort into getting them fully evolved, and as such, it’s more rewarding. As for me, I like having a balanced team where no more than two Pokemon share the same type or weakness.

          • Ah, I am the same way with two or less of the same type, which limits me >.< xD
            But it works out sometimes.

          • Yeah, it does limit you a bit lol, like how I don’t wanna use an Electric type (which that or Grass is standard for me) because that would make three weak to Ground. But oh well, I make it work somehow, and this is just an in-game team, so I get to experiment a bit! =)

  226. I will make a list of Pokémon that I need, it won’t be as long as the last time. I hope you can help, and in turn I can help you. 🙂

  232. The truth

    And again the one in HGSS was literally copied and pasted, and there is no reason to use the one in HGSS over the one in Platinum. In the case of the maison we actually get new forms to use in it. Which might not be much, but at least it has a point over XYs battle area. Where as HGSS’s BF has no point if you already had Platinum. People ignore that though and act like HGSS is the best thing ever. When really its not better than these.

  237. Hmm Project Azoth, interesting.
    Apparently Azoth was believed to be a universal material for alchemy; its name was comprised of the beginning letters of English, Greek, and Hebrew, then the end letters of English, Greek, and Hebrew. I.e, A, Alpha, Alef, Z, Omega, Tav (sorry if i butchered the hebrew names, i don’t know the proper spellings :c). I guess it would look something like this?: Aαתzωא (i hope that works).
    Interestingly, we know of a character that utilizes the first and last letters of English (AZ), and a set of games that uses the first and last letters of Greek (Alpha Sapphire, Omega Ruby). How might Hebrew come into play?
    Also, in the Aqua hideout, in Project Azoth vol. 2 it says “Devon Corporation holds the secret of the technology of the ultimate weapon.” interesting…

  260. OMG guys I found a awesome way to defeat Sydney with just a level 45 Gallade LOL LOL

    Well first you equip him with a persim berry (it neutralizes confusion) then you send him out against mightyena. You do SWORDS DANCE then he does SWAGGER and raises your attack without confusion. You use X-SCISSOR. He dead-er than dead.

    Eventually he will get out his Shiftry with FAKE OUT… Your Gallade has steadfast, flinches raises your speed. You faster than Usain Bolt. You stronger than that Russian boxer from Rocky 4. All his pokemon making their own grave.

    Flawless Victory
    Now I go against Phoebe. Wish me luck
    P.S. MenacingCascoon you owe me an apology

    Reply
  261. And Phoebe is next. With the same Gallade.

    First equip Persim berry. Again

    She clueless gets out her Dusclops. i use SWORDS DANCE He uses CURSE. I use SWORDS DANCE, he uses CONFUSE RAY. I use thief. Complete KnockOut
    She gets her banette out 1Hit kill. Gets out his sableeye uses fake out but i heal because of the curse. Kill sableye with 1 hit. Then its just a massacre.
    Phoebe cries. I laugh at her face

    Glacia is next. Wish me luck

  262. Glacia is Done. Harder than she looks.
    Get your Mega Aggron up and running hes level 46 thanks to the Exp. Share that I turned on just for the E4.
    2 hit kill the Glalie with rock slide. She gets mad and gets out her Walrein. I go for iron tail (crit) hes still alive. she goes for sheer cold. misses. I miss my Iron tail she goes for surf. HP down to 13. Aggron like a boss hits Iron tail. She screwed.
    I heal she goes forFrosslass with two shadow balls. Both of them are crits (She mad). Poor Aggron Dies.

    Enter Gallade. Swords dance UP she does hail. Instant 1 hit kill with thief. I kill both of her Frosslass. And finish his Glalie with a Psycho Cut.

    Gallade level 47. who´s next?

  263. So i watched the climax of both games on youtube.

  264. Ok Drake is defeated. Crittical Hit Wars Happening
    Altaria 1 hit kills with a crit my MVP Gallade. I cry inside.
    Get out my Mega Aggron misses 2 rock slide. I get nervous. Gets a rock slide 1 hit kill crit on her Altaria. She dead.

    I get out my level 46 Swampert against his flygon. Misses twice his confuse ray. I leave him red with 2 waterfalls. He uses full restore. He confuses swampert. He dont care. Switch out to Tropius (swampert is too important) He 1 HIT KILLS my tropius with a crit rock slide. Get out my swampert he misses his confuse ray and I 2 hit kill him. Flygon vs Flygon. Mine sucks. Mine dies. Swampert finishes the job.

    Battle of titans. Mega Aggron vs Salamance. 2 hits, 1 crit him with rock slide. Hes not coming back. Then comes the SPAWN from hell. Kingdra.
    He takes out my Aggron and Swampert. While my manectric deals some damage with volt switch. Manectric finishes the job.

    Hardest E4 member ever.

    Now its the champion. Elite four officially dealt with only a team of 45s, 46, and 47.

  265. Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire 10/10
    I just defeated Steven.
    First make him waste a full restore on his Skarmory by doing Discharge with Manectric. EASY. Then when he goes to his Claydoll get out your Mega Swampert and take him out with 2 waterfalls. EASY. Then the Armaldo with 4 waterfalls (because of the full restore). EASY. Then things go for the Worse like A LOT.

    He gets out his Cradily Aka Devil´s Weed.
    Number 1: His confuse ray always hits.
    Number 2: Your pokemon go mental when confused. Non stop hitting themselves
    Number 3: His Giga Drain will at least make 2 criticals making you wonder why God even exists.

    Pokemon LOST: Gallade. Flygon and Aggron

    Tropius finishes him with a Grass Knot.
    Then comes the Mega Metagross. Manectric is faster with his Discharge. He doesnt give a damn. 1 hit kills/ no crits my manectric with zen headbutt. I send out my Tropius while I heal my mega swampert. Metagross goes berserk and uses Giga Impact. Tropius is buried in a mountain next to the sea.

    I get out my Mega Swampert. level 47 vs his 59 level Mega Metagross.
    -Pokemon Anime theme song starts-
    I hit with an earthquake… not even half. He is faster.
    He uses Giga Impact. MISSES!!!!. And i finish him with a Critical hit earthquake.

    The Hype is real. Buy the game. Hoenn is still my favorite region.

  267. I finished the Delta episode (which is amazing by the way) and I have to say these games were infinitely better than I had imagined. I was worried it would end up being like FRLG and HGSS, since I wasn’t very fond if either, but these games just hit the right note on everything for me. The story was better than the originals because it had more depth and fleshed out the important characters.the fact that is stressed that the antagonistic team were not “evil” was very present throughout the game and the addition to backstory for not only the named members but even some of the unnamed grunts really makes the player relate to the characters emotionally.

    Reply
  268. Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire:

    ~ The game is a wonderful nostalgia trip for those that played the originals. For me, the most interesting part of the game as an entity was the story; moving, theatrical-like, and most of all, one of the most creative stories in the entire Pokemon franchise. Another great thing about the games is the music with major trumpets, guitar riffs that send chills down your spine, and who can forget Wally’s theme?! Last but not least, the game’s graphics and coloring has improved immensely, giving the Hoenn region a vibrant and lively look and feeling, as opposed to the dull shades of Kalos. All in all, the game is an 8.5/10 for me; it was a vast improvement from X and Y and the musical direction in this game was stunning! Keep it up Game Freak!

    Pokemon ORAS: 8.5

    That’s my medium analysis of the new games and I do hope Game Freak truly experiments with this Hoenn sound because Djja was correct; the music is exceptional!

  273. I don’t think there will be X2/Y2/Z next year or ever… They have understood that this thing is quite annoyng. We already know what would happen in each of those games. Bigger dex, Zygarde new forme/mega, both yveltal and xerneas, other megas, some gyms changes and rematches, maybe the champion. I mean, it’s becoming all kinda foregone. With gen 6 I think Game Freak has started to improve the franchise in a better way, they said they didn’t want to make 3rd game version (which is basically like playing always the same game), sequels/prequels etc. I want something new. Something different. Even the story 8 gyms, 4 elite four, champion, legend disaster killing the world after the 7th gym. Please, something new (but bring back trainer customisation, we have fought for 15 years to have that -.-)

    That way everyone can experience it at the same time. ;~;

  289. For anyone that cares:
    I’m currently building (or at least attempting to build) a recreation of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire’s Mauville City in Minecraft.
    Yes, it’s difficult, but I don’t want to give up just yet.

  294. My Gallade has finally reached the coveted level 100 and I couldn’t be prouder of him! His amazing skills has led to the downfall of Team Magma/Aqua and his prowess decimated not only the gym leaders and Elite Four members but Steven, the ex-Champion of Hoenn. Thank you for the best buddy a Pokemon trainer can have! 😀

    Speeches aside, what is your first Hoenn-born Pokemon that has reached level 100?

    PS: Mega Gallade is just… *speechless* *drools*

    • My very first lv 100 Pokemon was my Sceptile from my original Ruby………boy I miss him…..wish I didn’t lose that cartridge…….I’m very interested in knowing who I used back then as I only have vague remembrances of my old team………

      Reply
    • In OR my first level 100 is Altaria. I have to tell you when your pokemon are over leveled and you get to where you can catch swablu he is hard to catch up to my other pokemon. When I got there I dex navd for a hyper voice one. When I got altarianite my first battle with it one level and it learned dragon pulse XD after getting the mega stone Altaria was simple to level up and finally I got it to level 100 using e4! It was so fun!!! I love mega Altaria! Hyper voice pixilated is so good on him!!!

  295. Sorting pokemon from Bank transfer for a living dex is annoying… But now i’m done with that, so on to the fun part! Filling in the gaps! Starting off with Regirock, which is of course being a pain to catch.

  296. Quick question: Is it possible that they’ve lowered the odds for shinies even more? I’ve noticed a lot of videos where people are finding shiny legends really quickly… Maybe it’s just me?

    Reply
    • Nah it’s trash. It’s a waste of a mega slot IMO. Why would you use it when you can use better megas like mence or slowbro. I just feel like like Florges can do it’s job without wasting a mega slot.

      Reply
      • It has access to some good support moves, it would just suck if that’s what your last Pokemon was. I wouldn’t rely on it.

        Reply
    • Found one, Route 124
      Go to the dive spot near the double battle in the SW-ish corner. After using dive, there you should appear underwater at the top-right point of a C shape. There is light filtering through just to the left of there, if you go up you should find a blue shard and something else special :3 If you continue along the C until it dead-ends, you should dive up and find a yellow shard.

    • The game forced me into taking one of the Johto Starters! I freaked out b/c i couldn’t soft reset for one b/c i wanted to progress through the game more :C

      • I was really mad at that part, I wanted to sr for one, and even if I DID save, I couldn’t check it b/c my party was full ;~;

        Reply
        • Same here :C
          I’ll have to remember to only bring 4 pokemon for Rayquaza (So when he gets caught i’ll still have a spot open) in OR after i try SR’ing for a shiny one (assuming there isn’t a shiny lock)

  298. I am dedicating my whole day tomorrow on creating and perfecting my secret base.

    Anyways, how was everyone’s (who celebrates it) Thanksgiving? I experienced one of the best thanksgivings of my whole life. Sitting in the family room, watching thanksgiving specials on TV with my whole family (including my dog!), laughing so hard at stupid little things, experiencing havoc when giving my dog a bath and laughing about it, and just so much more.

    I realized today that I have to much more to be thankful for than I realized, and I now have a full appreciation of it.

  299. I really hope the next Game is a Red and Blue Remake

  304. I seriously hope GameFreak makes Soaring the Normal Flying. I (will) love the feature. It reminded me of Final Fantasy/Bravely Default. In the next game that they make; hopefully it says as a feature. I would like a Quick Fly tho. Which is the fly we had for all the games. For the peeps who don’t care for Soaring.

  306. Someone explain how I can fit a bike, no wait, TWO BIKES in one backpack?
    It’s worse for Mays she has a PHANNY PACK and she can fit two bikes in it

    Reply
    • Well. You see. All Pokemon Trainer’s Backpacks are made from the same material backpacks are made from in other RPGs. The have a fabric called “Universic”. It allows the to put an infinite amount of an item inside of a back and still be able to access it and be weightless. :/

      Reply
    • well you’re ten years old and ergo you don’t need a big bike
      and they’re folding bikes
      and obviously Pokemon Trainer Backpacks are dimensional hyperspace holes that defy all laws of volume and mass

  307. alright i’ve officially ran out of funny things to say
    Happy Thanksgiving to all and enjoy the following carnage that is Black Friday

          • Then why run? Are you really that large of a chicken? I bet you’re some white meat chicken who plays it safe with your non-fatty meats. Igneous, one day you should stop running, put down that 3ds, and pick up a woman. And no, an ORAS tuber waifu pillow is not a woman. Also, I don’t even believe you can run irl. Maybe you’re handicapped or something, so you say that you run away so much online because you aren’t able to in real life. In that case, Igneous, you should learn to embrace being handicapped, I know a ton of people in wheelchairs who are nice people. Are you making fun of them or something? “I was kidding”, who’s to say you’re not just being a little bitch who was trying to cover up for a mistake you had made out of fear of earthen saying mean things to you? You need to start embracing yourself, and your Egyptian heritage which we all know you have. So please, Igneous, just stop. Embrace yourself like you have never done before.

    • I love any base spots that’s near flight points.
      There are two right outside the Safari Zone.
      There’s also a base spot west of Mauville that I used to have before the Safari Zone base.
      Also any of the spots in the Secret Islet, etc. since they can be flied directly to.

  308. Why is it that sometimes when I use the dexnav, and I have everything showing for a pokemon like their potential and stuff, I’ll still get an exclamation mark over the silhouette? It’s been bugging me because I can’t think of any reason.

  314. For people with iPhones, download the Ultra Dex app. It’s like $5, but useful. For Android users, download Poke Type. It’s $2. Both are extremely useful though.

  315. Why do people hate Mauville’s re-design? I think it’s great, besides mauville is based on the real-life hoenn(Kyushu) capital(Kumamoto) so it makes sense to make it the biggest city in hoenn plus it has a food court

  316. What do you guys think about Mega Sableye’s uses compared to Sableye’s? Better? Worse? Which battle format do you think it’d thrive in and which format would it be terrible in?

    • I hate both immensely
      Prankster Wisp and Recovery (I have enough trouble breaking it even with a special sweeper)
      And now its even more Bulkier but loses Priority but can’t whittle it with Toxic
      Just such a unceasing pain that has tormented me too many times

    • Mega Sableye is one of those Pokemon you have to plan just right when to Mega Evolve it You can’t just up and Mega it but if used correctly both are evenly as good

  322. Well guys this game surprised me. I usually restart my game the first time I played it only exceptions are (Platinum because I hate it) and (Blue because nostalgia).
    And Omega Ruby may be the 3rd. But it wasnt for nostalgia or because I hated it…
    It was because I felt my playthrough was soo unique that I had grown attached to the little guy. I feel that what he went through, I also did.

    I wont buy AS because i dont buy the second versions of the game. Anyway I have never experienced such a thrill in the E4 and a sense of accomplishment once I defeated them. I mean I had a team of underleveled, not EV trained, wrong nature and dont get me started on their IVs. But when I accomplished what I had with them. It felt special. Anyways guys. Dont focus your playthrough on the games little mechanics and enjoy it like the time when you were little.

    I must go. I´ll be back in about 1 and a half or 2 weeks. These finals need my full attention. well anyway I hope I may have inspired some of you and…
    Good luck on your Journey. Addio
    Sincerely Sir Tomates

  323. Lol, after 40 hours, I beat Winona.
    I love Hoenn.
    Anyways, I like this 😀 Swift swim Swampert + Rain, Rock Tomb (wrecks Flying types and lowers speed), after Rain dies out, Rock Tomb has lowered Speed a ton so, and then Muddy Water or Ice Punch, it’s great

  324. I like how they made Shelly and Tabitha notice that what Archie and Maxie was doing was bad at the weather institute. That didn’t happen in the originals. And I’m guessing Matt and Courtney will probably still try to achieve that dream in the Delta Episode. That’s what I think since saw that ending with Matt in Mossdeep.

  330. I’ve visited some other Disqus communities over the past few days, and have noticed something very interesting.

    The mods here are always saying to discuss the subject of the article more on the comments, and even so, people still talk about various subjects not relating to the article, which I have to admit, I am one of the biggest offenders of this.

    Now, what I’ve seen on these other Disqus websites is that they’ve had a specific article, usually able to be linked to from the top of the page, with a comment section meant for general discussions and hanging out.

    Applying this to PokeJungle would allow more discussion of the topic of the article, while still allowing the commenters to discuss personal topics in the discussion article.

    Interesting.
    I need to get the right items and Mega Stone, so my base will not be ready for a bit.

  335. I am about to become the Hoenn Region’s newest Pokémon League Champion!!!!!! This battle against Steven was so cool :’)

    (Played with Battle Style: Set Rules)

    I led off with Lettuce (Minun), and easily took out Skarmory, Thundering it to oblivion.

    Lettuce then missed sing on Aggron and died to Earthquake. I sent out Big Baby (Dusknoir) to Burn Aggron, and did. I then switched to Diamond (Gorebyss) to kill Aggron.

    In comes Cradily, I switch to Sazzrupt (Camerupt) and get confused. Sazzrupt eventually faints to hax. I send out Fluffles (Altaria), and it becomes a stall war. I eventually kill it with Poison Damage. Fluffles the MVP then proceeds to stall out Claydol and Armaldo.

    Finally it’s down to Mega Metagross. I Hyper Voice it trying to bait it into Giga Impact against my +6 Defense. It does, and I take this as my opportunity to switch to Sceptile for nostalgic purposes.

    I mega evolve and use Earthquake, but it does little damage. Sceptile avoids Giga Impact!! Next turn I use Giga Drain because of my high Special Attack, and it gets Metagross into red health. Metagross AGAIN goes for Giga Impact, and AGAIN it misses!!! I see this as a chance to finish it off in style, I use Leaf Blade, but Metagross lives with a sliver of HP. It then uses Giga Impact, HITS, BUT SCEPTILE HOLDS ON WITH 5 HP!!!!!!! About to know finish this with a Leaf Blade 🙂

  336. I just finished the Delta Episode…
    So apparently, the protagonist has more than a diving suit in his inventory…
    And some Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann for the people who watched that…
    And I “killed” the final boss, but I’m sure it’ll turn up somewhere in Hoenn.

    Good thing I was playing it in my parked car and I was alone, because I didn’t expect it, I kept going whooooaa repeatedly (it wasn’t screaming, honest!) and all that made my tear up in the end even though it wasn’t sad…
    Best. Game. Ever.

I really hope they don’t change when I beat the League a second time, those pictures were perfect of my story through the game. So PLEASE, can someone tell if the pictures get updated, or are they forever like that with my Pokemon from my first time through!?
