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









Altarite before or after E4?
*Altarite
B4
Ok lads and laddetes I have requiered the game ORAS thanks to some pesky moves from my part so does anybody know where can I find an Aron… Its soo cute!! Ehem I mean for competitive purposes. Also I have the game and i play it 1 hour in every 3 hours of study sooo yeah…. ITS SOMETHING
Once you get the Mach Bike, go to Granite Cave and ride up the slope. On the bottom floor you can find wild Aron.
Do you get the mach bike in the same place as before?…
Mauville? I am completely ignorant about the leaks so… Please be gentle
Yes. Mauville.
After you get the Mach Bike you go to granite cave and go up the slope then go down stairs and run around and encounter it
WAIT A SEC! Maybe i can defeat it and rebattle it at Sky Pillar!
Anyone got an Eon ticket yet?
No ;~;
Isn’t that an event item?
Nope, you get it via StreetPass. I live in rural NY so I will never get one.
Does it work with any one StreetPass tag? My friend with Omega Ruby is coming over later.
Nope. They have to already have the Eon Ticket. It’s given to a select few people and it spreads throughout the country/world.
Yeah, I thought so. Maybe it’ll never happen… :/
But all it gives you is the other Lati. If you have both games, it shouldn’t be a problem.
Or if you just don’t care about getting the other (like me)
I’ll just import my own Latios and Groudon from the Bank. That’s not hard at all.
I don’t have Bank. I probably will get it.
But you can sr for them easier ;-;
I know nothing about soft resetting. I need you to teach me. xD
Just reset the game after catching a legendary for a good nature
No, I’m talking about soft resetting for starters/trainer IDs.
Oooooooh
That’s a terrible idea. I mean, no one likes Ebola…
???
Having trouble finding those pesky mega stones well here they are… (ONLY NEW MEGAS) spoilers… I guess

Xatu, source on no Shiny Lock? Don’t wanna be wasting my time resetting for Groudon ;~;
I posted the links to the GameFAQ thread and the Latios image down there. 🙂

Sea Mauville*
I mixed it up with New Mauville so I just waited for someone to correct me because I forgot XD
Battle Resort looks pretty cool.
I like how it has a beach feel to it. It’s not like a city…
Man cant wait until the Delta Episode!!!=D
I can’t wait till Battle Frontier
You made an account!
Welcome officially!
Thxs bruh
I’m gonna reset my game and play the whole game again before I even scratch the surface of the post game.
hehehe lol
I’m just gonna assume there’s a Shiny Lock then
There is a shiny lock on every legendary.
Not on Lati@s!!! :D:D:D:D
Really?
I’m resetting!
Yup!!!
http://i.imgur.com/j2lTOkc.jpg
Well…damn it.
Ohai mr. no source xD
Legendaries have been shiny locked since Reshiram and Zekrom in Gen 5 mr. Slowpoke.
The person said that there was a video on YouTube with a shiny Regice, but I couldn’t find it. Credibility is now obsolete XD
Really? I was gonna SR for Reshiram…
Archie and Maxie used to work together:O
Bruh.
And there was a Team E
I can’t take talk like a pirate Archie seriously, all I imagine is Patchy the Pirate from Spongebob..,.,
Bruh he is like Patchy the Pirate lord and savior. :p
The difficulty spike from Wally to the Elite Four is almost unreal. At least, in my case.
I was really overleveled when i wen to the E4… My highest was level 68
I’m in a weird situation. My Swampert is level 66, but my second highest-leveled is Swallow, at level 55. I have had this same level difference in every Pokemon game.
My Sableye is my highest level right now.
Do you know what really Gear Grinds my Klinks
You just caught a Legendary Pokemon with a Pokeball and you’re just about to see the nature and then you gotta bring in the groceries then get roped into unloading the dishwasher
What is this with Team E? Anyone know?
What is Team E?
Read further down

It seems Archie and Maxie were on the same team
Team Eda?
So shiny locks are gone? Saw that some guy got a shiny cresselia
Yup!!! :D:D:D:D
YUS I’m goona soft reset for shiny Ho-oh when I get the games!
I’ll have to steal my brother’s game though… I’m getting alpha sapphire

Guys I just found a horde without sweet scent or Honey. Completely random! :O
Guess you can still find them randomly after all
Yeah, I’ve found at least 3 or 4.
GOD FREAKING DANG IT
Groudon is Calm Natured………. Sp. Def + Atk –
The best nature for you 😉
^this
I”M ANYTHING BUT CALM!!!!!!!!!
Well that means you’ll face my Adamant Primal Groudon with Fire Punch
Hello Anything But Calm (9 exclamation points)
He’s going to wreck your halls with boughs of holly.
More like mauling him like a beserking man-bear
That’s probably a lot more accurate. 😉
Yep
Has anyone Primal Devolved any shines yet?
Primal Reversed*
So that’s what it’s called.
Well, Primal Reversion.
But the past tense would be Primal Reversed.

Look at those pretty purple nails!
Shortly before the primal Kyogre had its shit pushed in by that lv 2 poochyena.
Just caught Rayquaza… AGAIN. Now I’m back to space for another shot at Deoxys.
This might be easier if I tried using anything except Pokeballs, but I like to use them as challenges.
I’ve been using Power-Up-Punch with my Metang, but my attacks don’t do any more damage after that… anyone know why?
Are you using special attacks afterwards? 😛
No, I’m using Power-Up-Punch… over and over…
