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









Meteor falls is so nice
I like those ledges
Shouldn’t it be ‘Meteor fall’?
To those of you who got the gardevoirite;
Where are you in the game and did you show Wanda a gardevoir? I went to her after getting Latias (and the Mega Bracelet), with my kirlia, and she didn’t give it to me :C
What should be my 6th team member?
Marshtomp
Kirlia
Swellow
Scraggy (shiny)
Magnemite (shiny) (found it last night!)
WOW! what it using the dexnav?
*was
No. It was a random horde. Got super lucky
wow Test out the dexnav search thingy i heard it increases too!
I smell a jealous skiddo
i cant be jealous
too much water
I just can’t answer this, too much water
Duly noted!
Too much water in your team
Get a top percentage ratata
Another water type for using dive or waterfall
Maybe a dual type like walrein
Swampert will be my waterfall poke. But I think I might take your advice
Too much fucking water
Definitely a fire type on my opinion, they always come handy!
I suggest to use a fast one to balance your team.
I always do Fire-Water-Grass on my team.
Me two… Along with my Togetic an electric type and a random poke from a different gen
So, is Battle Frontier time-based or not?
I sure hope it is at least DLC
But we will have to wait
Yeah.
I wonder if anybody that has gotten to it has tried setting the 3DS time forward…
Or maybe it’ll come out as Day One DLC for the Europeans. That way everyone can have it at the same time.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking
I have a feeling like you’re right.
It’s not like Gamefreak to make references in a game and just leave them be.
Well… kinda.
In the game, They mention brandon, lucy and scott.
Also, the battle factory music.
If they really wanted to get rid of battle frontier, they would’ve “closed it” like the game corner.
That’s true.
it would suck because Europeans would have to beat the game first XD
The Episode Delta Music is AMAZING!
NES 3ds xl is pretty cool…
I don’t know why but I’m at the Battle Maison when I should be decorating my SSB
I decided to actually try the maison in ORAS, I just ignored it in x and y lel
When do you get a SSB?
I don’t want specifics, just a general area or time in the game.
When you go up Mt.Chimney Aarune is there
Oh, lol.
Ironically that’s where I left off.
I’m talking to looker let me be known as the only person who likes looker and the looker quest
I GOT AUDINITE welp time to make my competitive team then..lol
Where is that located??
Looker gives you it on the Battle Resort Island appears he has amnesia
That’s not good
So officially no BF being built right? Oh nvm
Oh… Nvm
Nope there is no built in boyfriend
According to masuda the trick house will be a battle frontier facility in latter games
Are you cereal?
Yes, in the latest japanese gaming magazine he said it
WHAAAAAAA?
I can’t even think about later games since this game is so good
IKR
so much to do in it even if it doesn’t have bf
I just saw the cutest thing between a Team Magma Grunt and a Team Aqua Grunt T_T
where????
@ the battle resort check the houses by where looker is with that prostitute I mean Beauty
Those must be te grunts who go to live in Unova
BATTLE MYSTERY CONFIRMED!!Made up name…
Nope, too much water
7.8 tho
WHAT?
yes
What do they mean… Later games… ? So another way fo saying it won’t be in or as… But in the next game… Which may come soon sense he is saying it now
Delta Emerald is very possible considering Delta episode ends in a cliffhanger.
Wahhhhh a 3rd game for a redo which has been done So many times now….??? Kind of cray
Hey, GameFreak are always looking for ways to surprise us.
Let’s go back to Gen V. When everybody was expecting Pokemon Gray. Then they hit us with a first for the Pokemon franchise– main series sequels.
Who knows? Maybe this the first time a 3rd game will be remade. GameFreak doesn’t follow patterns.
Mind
Blown
Delta Emerald was trademarked… But I’m ready for next gen…
Gold and Silver tho
Yeah, recently they basically told us that patterns were no more in that magazine interview
link?
‘iamtheleaker’
I have no idea I didn’t keep the link I didn’t think it would be important haha
Primal rayquaza am calling it!!
It got a Mega to fit the new story…
U never know
Why would it get a Primal? The backstory for this new mega states it became a Mega so it wouldn’t get corrupted by the same power that corrupted Kyogre and Groudon
idk man…just a stupid speculation
We still need a battle frontier as DLC…
Yeah… Don’t wanna wait that long
K-on is officially the best tea simulator 2015
Nice blog
I’m just bringing the news
I mean that anime is 80% tea 15%cute girls and 5% Music
maybe
Well, it’s a fact
..
It’s also boring
Lol… What?
He called KLK boring
I actually called K-on boring but whatever lol
All animays are the same anyways
‘All anime is the same’
Yes
Emerald was almost a carbon copy of the other games… I see now because I recognize the majority of these games even though I Only ever played emerald..
it would have to be an Entirely New Game! Or I won’t accept it a 4th Time! 6th if you brought bought versions each time…
I’m listening to some ORAS tracks trying to distract myself at the same time keeping away from major spoilers. The flight theme is perfect. I can’t wait to soar on Latios… BTW, does anyone know if you try to soar on a shiny latios it will be shiny when you ride it?
The night soar theme is even better <333
I prefer day, but thats only because I love how pumped up it is. I mean, flying on a freaking dragon deserves music like that. But night is pretty :3
MAJOR SPOILER:
Dicie is a Dedenne.
AW COME ON YOU RUINED EVERYTHING
Is Dedenne still your favorite?
Eh…
It’s kinda debatable.
I’m really liking Swellow now after I saw how well it does in Contests.
And Milotic.
And Diancie.
Dedenne has been a favorite not based on stats, but on design. And I’ve always loved Electric-type rodents. It’s stuck with me since I first started Pokemon.
Bruh
But the music is fantastic! Really does the old themes justice!
HOLY CRAP SLATEPORT YASSSS
Slateport music is awesome.
I am kinda disappointed that they kept Rustboro, Mauville and Mossdeep’s music the same, but I guess that’s how it was in the originals, so they wanted to keep it consistent.
Yeah, Verdanturf is still not as good as HappyDragonite’s
happy dragonite’s was playing it safe, I’m happy they went a different route
Personally, I really like it.
I like it too, but it just seems to go fast. And its a song I feel should be a bit slower.
They made the drought theme worse though.
If Sakurai can bring Mewtwo back.Then Game Freak can bring BF back too!
They took out some of the the puzzles at the trick house too
Mom
Me too!
Only 2 of them, lol.
Not a huge difference.
A wild Cobalion appeared!
Crobat pretty much just Confuses everything and swifts it…

I love how the game ends with you and may on a date
Djja…. You must really like that.
Pokemon best shojo confirmed
boku no pichu
(why did I just say that…)
*boku no pico
Hmmm… i answered a question of Zinnia’s and now I want to know what she says to the other one… Is this how it feels to play TellTale games?
I couldn’t catch rayquaza in a Ultra Ball but I caught it in a Dive Ball…
Thanks god pokemon has no love triangle like Sao or something
Like Naruto XD
That’s like a pentagon
And Sao is more like a love octagon or something
It’s just between asuna and his thick ass sister
Aniways sao is a shit tier anime, it atleast had fanservice
Is going into space awesome during the Delta Episode?
Again, I don’t want specifics. Just a yes or no.
Probably
Haven’t gone yet! Getting there though.
I’ve always wanted to go into space (In a game. Not in Real life. In real life, I’ve always wanted to go deep down into the ocean. That’s y my ambition is to become a Marine Biologist)
Time to Battle Flannery (My Fave of Hoenn)
Time- 15:30
Pokemon Obtained: 83
Team:
IronWoman (Aron) 26
HooHah (Makuhita) 26
Aerial (Swellow) 26
Angel (Kirlia) 26
Forrest (Grovyle) 27

HooHah XD
Her highest is lvl 28 watch out
Yes!
This might be a challenge!
Flannery Looks like Frankie from Foster’s Home
Cresselia is the most annoying Legendary ever!
Agreed.
I can’t get it to hit itself in confusion and then all of a sudden it brakes out of confusion
I hear someone coming upstairs. Hide!! JK.
I’m going somewhere for lunch.
SYL Peeps! 😀
