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









Gotta level up Turtle powah before facing off with the waifu.
So how far you guys? I’m facing Shelly at mt. chimney right now
Heading down the jagged pass.
Fallarbor
I’m grinding Turtle Powah and hopefully this spoink if I catch it before I face Flannery. You are literally right behind me.
And the it’s Zelda and I am only Meteor Falls behind that
then*
Just lost to 3rd gym. MNKFDSNAKD
You do have to grind, but only a bit
Secert bases. THose are the best places
rekt
Hoenn 2 strong
So far I have 2 losses. I’m using EXP share but I refuse to grind.
what level are your pokes?
Low 20’s
How many?
3.
Which ones? xD
Grovyle, Metang, and Sableye.
:/ Try teaching something a TM?
I have like 3 TMs.
xD
I dunno then.
Yay found another Skarmory that I won’t kill
I have 40 pokeballs, lol
I just finshed useing the starting 10 potions
Mega Rayquaza? More like Mega Breakuaza. Breaking the damn Meta game itself
-_-…this Lioone stole my Aron’s Focus Band with Covet then used Bestow
IKR LOL
Strategy.
I think the battle with flannery might be my most difficlt one yet because i don’t have a single water type even though my pokemon are about 3 levels above her strongest
I can’t get my water type until after the fifth gym
I can’t get mine-
Oh wait, starter, lol
Use the Toarkoal with Rock moves
Rock type?
Ground type?
Bulldoze user? (e.g. Beldum series)
Now I’m at Watson’s Magneton with all 3 Pokemon alive. I think I can pull this off.
You should be able too I beat him with my pokemon in the low 20s
That match was way too easy
One mud shot and they all fall
ARCHIES THMEM!
THMEM
Well you all will probably leave me in the dust now…. I’ve got to get ready to go to a tournament at the local card shop. Have fun hoenning everybody!
Good luck with the tournament!
Ok so I just got to Mauville City and it’s ridonculous!!! It’s almost nothing like how it use to b lol
So here’s mah team
Marshtomp (Oceanus) – 25
Kirlia (Psycrifice – as in Psychic and Sacrifice) – 26
Breloom (Fun-guy) – 25
Aron (Colossus) – 25
And soon will be Swablu (Fluff”R”Us)
And then Snorunt (Iscream)
Cheater!!! No Swamperts at lv 25!!!! hahahaha
*facepalm*
Edited
It’s ok I forgive u lol
Oh.. ok. Transferring the Glalie was waaay easier than I thought haha
Yeah I made the mistake of transferring it first…..should have waited and transferred something more useful lol
Yeah, didn’t realize you could do it once per day.
*sigh*…..yup…..lol
Haha true
Uh huh 😀
I only used it for the Glalitite xD
And it goes straight into your box, not to the event lady. I still didn’t claim my Beldum.
When is that event over?
Somewhere in January. I think 14th, but not sure.
Apparently no one is doing pickup backups except me with my 3 Zigzagoon/Linoone 🙂
Only have one xD
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWB-oQQjHkw Hoopa is freaking amazing !!!!!
Hyperspace Fury? O_o
I’ve been saying that for weeks
GOES THROUGH DETECT AND PROTECT
look at him while laughing on his opponent .
THAT’S THE MOST AMAZING MOVE I’VE EVER SEEN
that’s right ……..i was know hoopa is amazing cuz he has a complicated concept , and i told but some people didn’t listen .
I noticed, I thought he looked interesting.
He isn’t so ugly after all.. I want one now ;~;
He isn’t so ugly at all .
ugh the guy won’t shut up
This thing is a beast. I WANT IT!! ;A;
But the guy sounds like a dork
wat u mean ?
HOLY CRAP
The rings around the arm’s wrists detach! Interesting
Not to mention laughing at the opponent whilst attacking. I love it.
i think that’s the best part .
It’s like he’s laughing because you cannot dodge it nor guard from it. The fact if someone did use Protect would probably make it laugh harder. XD
Gen 6 will now forever be known as: THe gen that broke ubers
Well, Hoopa IS Unbound so OP move acceptable?
OMG JUST READ THE DIALOGUE WORD BY WORD
IKR
I remember that guy, on top of Mauville!
so, did u find something ?
About to take on Flannery! So excited!!!
;~; Still going to get my Swablu and crush Archie
3Turn KO GG Flannery.
She didn’t even get to attack
haha remmeber when we thought gen 6 was going to fix the meta game….
Mega Evolutions and Hoopa said, “Nope.”
Mega Rayquaza said Double Nope
Mega Ray is OP as hell. I know it is, they are all OP. Smogon will end up banning them all.
Man Aron’s really doing good today
