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

Good luck. Have fun. May the crits be ever in your favor. Tell Glacia bae that I say hi.
Aerial is such a cool name for a Swellow.
Because it sounds like a normal name but it represents something related with the wind.. Awesome
It’s time guys To see if I am cut out for the Champion place
Can I beat Steven?
-Crowd cheering in the stalls-
-You look up and see my face in the moon- ….muttering
“Go for the win, Billy”
-I turn to stars and float to space-
The End.
Have trouble finding those pesky TMs
Well dont bother exploring and look for the answers in the Internet.
Duhhhh

The cutest thing ever is Mega Evolving Altaria and then watching as occassionally it nibbles on its fluff
Altaria <3
Actually is watching the little Aron with its Lairon mother at the beginning of the game. Soo Cute little Aron so adorable.
“Who´s gonna be a huge devil horned monster?”
“You are!!”
Can we just say that Hoenn is the cutest region?
cutest
best
awesomeest
amazingest
greatest
bestest
Yes Yes we can
Of course we can Tommy.
Of course we can.
-Watching the house of a Hoenn hater getting burned-
I am squeeing as I try to picture that.
Somebody was actually using mega Audino on showdown. Poor fool #hipster
I did it!
Mega Sceptile Vs Mega Metagross
it was a 1v1
And I did it!
I am the new Champion of Hoenn!!!
CONGRATS
Congratsulashuiozes!
I’ve been using mega sceptile on showdown and I feel like it has a case of 4 move slot syndrome. I’ve been running giga drain, sub, dragon pulse and focus blast. I thought about trying a mix or physical set. It’s kinda underwhelming besides it’s speed
” I felt a thrill of excitement in my breast when we first met”
Oh Steven #O-O#
uh
He actually said that XD
uh.
Breast = Chest
He’s a gentleman, so he speaks formally.
How many spinda spot variations are there?
1,000,000,000+
Over 9000?
4,294,967,295
*nods* over 9000.
Someone actually counted? Talk about dedication.
Calculated, not counted.
I got that from Bulbapedia. 1 in 4,294,967,295 is the odd of 2 Spinda having identical spots. So I guess 4,294,967,295 must be the total number of combinations.
That’s what I thought. Still a lot of patience needed.
Maybe some spots have better probability range than other so maybe you should make an integral of the estimated function.
Pretty sure they calculated it 😛
Far. Far. Far over 9000.
“Well I´m gonna be the first one to catch them all!!!”
-Running maniacly to the forest in the middle of the night-
-Everyone looking confused-
All the trendy people in Dewford town are now going on about Nugget Dances. I love this game.
The best megas(IMO):Salamence, slowbro, lopunny, beedrill and metagross
Honorable mention: Diancie. Mega diancie is good but you need a turn for your speed to increase. It’s really frail, but once it gets going it hits like a truck.
Underwhelming: mega audino, camerupt and sharpedo
Mega Gallade >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Mega Lopunny
js
lopunny’s ability is great but mega gallade has far better stat distribution and move pool.
Ah yes him too
Also where is mega rayquaza
Oh yeah I don’t really count ubers
Why you hate Mega Steelix?
Imo. Mega aggron is superior to it. Plus weather teams are sooooooooo 5th gen
-Sips tea furiously-
Just MO 🙁 I’m talking from a competitive stand point
-Sips tea gently with class?-
-sips tea with mom-
tfw mom = Zinnia
Mum

Weather Teams are 5th gen?
Try facing my Volbeat Swift Swim PU Rain team.
The shade is in the title it’s self *sips tea*
hwat
Best. Ending. Ever.
It really, really is
wait until after credits
Seen it
that is more reason why it is best
I even took out my phone and took a few snapshots

show the actual pokemon you used for the battles, such an amazing touch
I KNOW!!!!
I really hope there’s a way to re-watch it!
Beat the e4 again, I think it keeps it
What’s your favorite mega to use in battle? Surprising. For me it’s mega bedrill. It fits my play style. I like fast Pokemon that hit hard
Well the two most Megas i use would have to be Megas Garchomp and Heracross
But with Oras i use Mega Swampert often (Not every battle)
but i recently transfered my Gallade and Steelixs so i plan on using them
I missed you Earthern. Also have you read my E4 experience?
I worked hard to make it. I wish you read it. :3
*Puts on reading glasses*
…..Oh yeah, i can’t read
No i didn’t read your E4 Saga
Lol I was talking new megas. But mega Pokemon in General. I really like mega charizard y. It hits everything hard under the sun. Nothing can really stop it except for Chansey and AV goodra
Random OC I made!

-SHOW IT!!- In super high pitched voice
Refresh
Oh. Love it
When you dexnav a hyper voice swablu and it’s nature is adamant http://media.tumblr.com/f2b641582bdd455cd875a548e4c9c720/tumblr_inline_ndcminS7TQ1sssz0p.gif (rf)
Refresh found a better gif XD
It took me 5 dragon rush swablus to get a hyper voice, and I got a timid :/
Timid Hyper voice is good
Has anyone Seen Heavy?
He hasn’t been here lately
He’s on twitter being a thot
Who else but Heavy
Currently at about 35 SR’s for Latios, making it around 30 SR’s an hour or so.
The cutscenes, the battle, and the obsessive talking makes the SR’ing tedious, but I’ve seen people get these shiny legendaries in under 500 SR’s.
Wish me luck!
(And hopefully it has a good or neutral nature because I forgot my Synchronizer!)
That’s your punishment for not playing alpha sapphire
Literally the same events take place but with different people and pokemon.
exactly, alpha sapphire has the better of both.
The 500 sr thing is for Mirage Spot Legendaries, supposedly.
I’d still assume 1/4096 odds (ew not full odds anyways) for Latios.
If I were you, i’d get Alpha Sapphire and hope to get an Eon ticket so that you can Sr for Latios w/o the annoying stuff. Tough luck if you aren’t getting it though? 😛
You’re looking at at least 17 hours of soft resetting for the 1/512 odds; about 137 for 1/4096
Good luck 😛
Oh well.
Let’s see what happens.
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 -.-)
You wankers…
Oh boy.
Everybody wanks
No, Cass and Djja talking about me behind my back
i bet ur mommy cuts ur cereal
I can take care of myself
I was even helping her brine the turkey
You can sure take baits, too…
Ignore them.
>Implying sarcasm = bait
lurk more
I bet ur mommy cuts ur turkey for u :333
i bet ur mama chews your food then regurgitates it back in ur mouth
Too far? XD
Why are you guys always picking on me
Because we love you
I really don’t believe you anymore
You don’t need to
Say cheese
Dead Cascoon ground up into a somewhat edible paste

;-; I’m just so tired and want to find a shiny
Are there any gym leaders here? I have an idea for a mini series of articles I wanted to suggest
“Gather around kids, Spetsnaz has a story to tell”
K 1. Forgot to say this, why does Flannery’s gym have like 3 Fire pokes? Don’t be like Sinnoh in that way
2. “Hey, move or we’ll have to kill you.”
“Okay, sure.”
(Steven) “Now is not the time to joke, help me beat these n00bs.”
the kekleons are technically fire type if hit by a fire type :^)
I know, but idc
Also I don’t want to send a pokemon back to my PC for Latias, boo
