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









You guys are al trolling me.
I don’t have Oras!
its ok
Hey, you asked how it was. We’re sorry. 🙂
Neither do I. I only have to wait until tomorrow though.
I love the colored text in ORAS that signifies something is important.
I am slighly disappointed that the option to change the border around your text boxes doesn’t return, but it really doesn’t matter much.
Any word on whether the dexnav can show if a pokemon is shiny or not? Just curious, as this thing can do pretty much everything.
i finally caught a ralts
The contest hall! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Now I’m torn between trading over my Contest Pokemon from X&Y over to compete… or continuing the game!!!
I brought over my max cuteness, master rank winning Groudon named “Babe” and instantly got a pink scarf. <3
forgot to mention, he came from my original Ruby.
Anybody have a list of where all the tm’s r? I was hoping to teach my Shroomish bullet seed, but then I got echoed voice hahaha
It’s… not a TM. 🙁
WHAT?!?!?!?!?! is it only a tutor then…….? or not a……dare I say it….learn-able move at all…..?
Egg Move only.
Seed Bomb is the tutor move.
GAAAAAAH!!!!!…….*sigh*…….whatever I suppose I’d prolly get rid of it eventually anyway……….thanks tho…..
*checks*
It learns Seed Bomb naturally at level 36 though… 😉
Don’t give up on it.
Seed bomb is like the much more powerful older brother of bullet seed lol
I am gonna name my Rayquaza “Discord” and Zekrom “Gunvolt”.
Ehh once i get Fly i’m going to work my way from Littleroot and catch everything in my path
In some ways I feel kinda annoyed….I technically have all 719(revealed) Pokemon so I’m only really focusing on the ones I wanna use. The annoying part is that I wanna use the Dexnavi feature to catch everything lol
well the thing is i really haven’t caught a whole lot of anything
maybe like 5 things
Did the Pokemon Trainer School look that amazing in R/S?
Wow.
So I can’t seem to find Sableye in granite cave anywhere. Any hellp? :/
Have you got the Mach Bike and AS?
YOu have to use the mach bike to go up the slope and go down the ladders
I Have. It does not show up in my dexnav
All the ladders? Did you find the room with the rare candy? Because that’s where I found the one I got Ooks
Yea i tried the rare candy rrom. But I’ll go back and double check
Just keep trying. You’ll get it.
Yea it’s not showing up on my dexnav I’ve cheacked every room and area in granite cave. If it was their it would have showed up right?
Yeah. Have you battled anyone with it in their party? That might be it. Just walk around a little bit if that’s the case.
A crucial question for my team, Is it possible to get Altariaite before the League? I want Mega Altaria on my team!!!! Someone….
I believe so, just show an Altaria to someone in Lilycove
That’s it. Thanks. I needed to know that too. 🙂
I wanna at least make it to Mauville by the end of the night…..I’m pretty tired of staring at a screen right now tho so maybe I’ll take a break and eat and then play some more lol
Surskit can’t surf? literally how?
Gamefreak must have decided it is too small to support the weight of a trainer I guess…

That makes sense. 😀
Pidgey doe. I was so excited to use Masquerain.
I just realized all the 1.0m birds can fly.
I found a Surskit with signal beam on it’s first route using Dexnavi. It nearly wrecked my team and because of that I had to have it…..even if it’s just sitting in my box right now lol
I’ve just been listening to the Dewford town music for the past half hour now. It’s amazing.
No luck with heat wave Numel, but I just found a 2 star potential one just now!
What is the earliest Mega Stone you can find in ORAS?
Alakazite. unless you get the event Beldum
How do you even get that? The event Beldum?
Mystery Gift
Just connect to wifi using mystery gift on the main screen.
Oh I keep forgetting to get the Shiny beldum lol
i have Alakazite
Steelixite and Aggronite
I’m glad they made it so u don’t have to wait to get the mega stones between 8 and 9 anymore….I’d always forget and then it would b too late for that day lol
Is Trainer Hill back?
Are you talking about the big building on the route with the Winstrates? Then no.
;~;
Everyone having the time of their lives and here I am… making my finals thesis…
Drinking my own tears. Hugging my imaginary Mudkip
found sky attack taillow
http://www.serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/legendary.shtml look at legendary condition it’s amazing ,but still many pokemon missing : jirachi ,Manaphy, Darkrai,Shaymin,Arceus,Keldeo,Meloetta,Genesect ,and Victini; cuz Masuda said u can catch all the Pkmn in ORAS and XY ,so all these pokemon will be in events ????
Since when do people listen to what Masuda say?
I mean he missed on the HIDDEN MEGAS to discover why not lie to us with all the legendaries
yeah but no hidden megas still not confirmed yet ……dlc the last hope .
Actually, you can catch all legendaries EXCEPT event legends..
All the legends you listed are event legends
and that’s wat i say so many event legends …….but not confirmed yet .
“Makuhita is loafing around.”
._.
Well, I think I’m gonna call it a night. Well… maybe not xD. This game is just too good. I don’t really need sleep.
Dat Archie intro… that zoom in… with the power walk….
I think Defensive is going to die when he reaches that part…
Why is the Makuhita that I got from that kid in Rustboro so disobedient?
What level is it? Maybe it’ll fix itself after your get the badge?
13. No badges yet.
I think with no badge you can control traded Pokemon up to lv10… the first badge puts it up to 20… not sure though.
