The day you’ve all been waiting for is finally here! (Aside from those of us who have to wait just a little longer.) The first stage of the release for Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire starts today, fans in the US, Japan and Australia can finally get their hands on the game after years of wishful hoping, and months of anticipation. Trainers in Europe can expect to get their mitts on the games when they release on November 28.
For those of you who have already picked up the game, we hope you are enjoying it! In this article we invite all of our readers, whether old or new to join in and discuss the games. What starter Pokémon will you/have you chosen? What are you most looking forward to in the games? How are you celebrating the release (outside of playing the games, obviously!)
Get talking in the comments! For those who don’t yet have the games, this is a free-for-all discussion. The comments will contain spoilers
The Gym music is amazing,
dexnav op found taillow with sky attack
Found one with Brave Bird.
AT LEVEL THREE.
So, Watson’s Voltorb used Charge 6 times in a row, only to faint on the next turn, finally, to my cosplay pikachu’s electro ball spam.
Before that, his magnemite had used volt switch on her.
He’s a gym leader, and an electric type one too. shouldn’t he know better?
lol.
For any of you at the first gym, or for those that remember how high leveled their Pokemon were, do you think that being around Level 15 by the time you challenge Roxanne is good enough?
It’s EZ with Mudkip and Treecko, but Torchic should be Combusken at least to attempt it…
Chose Mudkip.
Soooo cute :3
DEXNAV time to see what all the hype is about :3
Just found a level 24, 3 STAR POTENTIAL NUMEL, CAPTURED FIRST TURN. Unfortunately, the move it knew was growth, but still, a nice find nonetheless
Wow… Alakazite is just laying on the streets… I wonder why no one at the shopping center found it yet…
2 hours, 20 minutes into ORAS and I’m only at Roxanne. xD
That’s good isn’t it? That means that the games will be long.
alright how do you increase the Dexnav’s level?
Not sure, probably catch more of that Pokemon to increase its search level.
Level 18 Skitty and I’m only on the first gym. Wow.

Version Exclusives not fair Ludicolo is much better than Shiftry .
Mawile is better than Sableye though…
i want good grass pokemon .
Um Where is Aron inGranite Cave?
In the old games it was in the basement and the room with Steven…
Not in these :/
So steven’s room has no pokemon.
And I don’t think you can access the basement yet.
The path on the way to steven’s room doesn’t have arons.
Nope
Up the bike path and down some ladders from there.
Wow, Dewford Town music is on point 100%.
I remember listening to some YouTube remixes of original R/S music, and Gamefreak did very nicely making their own. They sound very similar to the ones that other YouTubers made, which is good.
Personally, I wished Dewford would sound like this.
While it doesn’t exactly replicate this song, I’d say it’s at least 75% integrated into the real ORAS.

Although I wish the Saxophone part was in. Even though it’s short.
What is the Potion Festival?
It’s the trending secret phrase. You can change it.
Awesome!
Boom. I can’t stand it anymore. I’m moving my Milotic in for contests now.
I never won a contest back in R/S days.
Maybe you will now 🙂
Maybe. 😀
I’ve never one a contest period.
My brain hurts…..
i’ve been playing all day long with a major headache BUT I CAN’T STOP!!!!!
If i stop then everyone will get ahead
But i gotta also play Smash and do challenges
and keep my WoW responsibilities
So many games so little time!!!
Just got Alpha Sapphire.. I’ve never been happier. ;_;
Enjoy!! 😀 You’ll be addicted to the Dex Nav
Yeees. DexNav is OP.
I am so excited to try that out xD
It’s as if the female Pokefans are holding Coro Coros…
KEEHAUL IT ALL
What… there’s no more berry blending minigame? 😀
Awesome? Not sure about it…
Do you just buy pokeblocks?
You still put in the berries but no minigame, the blocks just come out 🙂
Also FEEL/fullness is gone. So like… I can max out all the stats? I gotta make sure!
I hope this means no Touch screen killing poffin mini-game in Sinnoh remakes.
Also, NO ONLINE MULTIPLAYER CONTESTS… why… come on Gamefreak… please… give this to me… DLC, patch I don’t care…
Well my status update

LOL. Almost everyone on XY’s PSS is the original Calem or Serena. 😀
That’s what you appear as, if you’re playing ORAS…
Milotic’s going in!
Cleverness contest…
The intro is so slow… 😉
