Welcome to the “How To…” series for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, to help players identify some of the harder-to-find aspects of the games. Now, without further ado, let’s jump right into today’s topic, which will cover Mega Stones. These Mega Stones will only be the Mega Stones that are present in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, and I will only be covering half of them. The remaining half will be covered in Saturday’s article.
First up, we have the Diancite. In order to recieve this, you will need to head to a Pokemon Center after transferring Diancie over from Pokemon X or Pokemon Y. This can be done at any point in the game, but keep in mind that you will need to recieve the Heat Badge from Flannery before it obeys you.
Next, the Audinite. In order to recieve the Mega Stone of the only Generation V Mega Evolution to date, you will need to complete the main story as well as the Delta Episode, and you will find a certain Detective at the Battle Frontier who will give it to you…
Next we have the Galladite, which you might remember from your last battle with Wally at Victory Road. In order to recieve this, you will need to head to Fallarbor Town after the Delta Episode to recieve it from Professor Cosmo.
To get the Lopunnite, you will need to head to Mauville Hills and stop a conflict arising between two men. One of those men will reward you with this Mega Stone after helping him. This can only be done after you have caught Kyogre or Groudon in the Cave of Origin, but can be done before you defeat Wallace’s Gym.
Now, it gets a little bit more complicated. For the Latiosite and the Latiasite, you will recieve the Latiosite in Alpha Sapphire from your mother after the Delta Episode has been completed, and you will get the Latiasite on Southern Island after being escorted by Steven on Route 118. The exact opposite will occur in Omega Ruby. Hmm… isn’t it interesting how you will catch the Pokemon whose color is opposite to that of its version. Sound familiar? Anyways, although you are able to recieve both Mega Stones in either game, you will need the Eon Ticket to obtain the Eon Pokemon that is opposite to your version. For more information how to do that, check out an article that our fellow moving posted a while back- http://pokejungle.net/2014/11/29/get-eon-ticket-pokemon-omega-ruby-alpha-sapphire/
To recieve the Metagrossite, you can do one of two things. You can participate in the Beldum Event which runs until January 14th, 2015, where you can recieve a Shiny Beldum as well as a Metagrossite. If you happen to miss out on this event or want to grab an extra one, you can get one from Steven after rematching the Elite Four once.
And finally, you can recieve the Salamancite from Zinnia’s grandmother after you have completed the Delta Episode.
Well, that’s all for this week! Let me know in the comments if this is a series that you guys feel would be useful and you’d like for me to continue. Tune back in this Saturday for the second half of the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Mega Stone locations!










Is it me,or is ORAS’S main storyline wayyyy shorter than other pokemon games.
No. It was shorter than Gen 5’s but way longer than XY, and just as long as the other games. You probably just sped through it.
I didnt speed through it, i took my time just like every other pokemon game..
Just seemed like that to me…
It was actually prty long for a pokemon game
Counting DE it’s very long
I’m only at sootopolis :p
Finished it faster than I did X and Y. But that’s only because I played a lot of wifi battles before completing the main story. They’re pretty close in terms of length imo
It’s totally the same length as most other games, heck, can be even longer.
But it seemed the same to me sooo *shrug*
THen again, I took my time cause a) I had both games to complete and b) I took my time completing it.
I have to painstakingly go through the Battle Maison in XY to get an upgrade to obtain a Porygon2 for the completion of my National Dex in ORAS. I had to breed a competitive Porygon so I don’t have to go through this hellhole ever again. ;~;
i have a sudden urge to play a Link between worlds
Do eet!
No you have to breed a HA Castform for me first D:
And if i refuse?
I won’t tell you how to get rid of that eternal headache, because there is a way.
there needs to be more comp battlers here v.v
IKR!
I just need to finish my team
Yes but
You, Me, Raiker would be the only ones that battle :I
Slow and steady. I haven’t made a team yet xD I just started one, but I need to wait to get an Everstone since I accidentally sold it.
Same XD
I would give you my Everstone but my wifi sucks now so…..
IMissedYouSoMuch.HowItsTheLifeAtCollege?
I have one, no worries, in my X and Y. I just need to wait for my bff to come over so I can get both my Everstone and Destiny Knot (since that couple rematching then you might get it concept sucks). Also, I’m borrowing one of her level 100s to get Reshiram and Zekrom.
It’sgoinggoodhowareyouImissedyoutooOh! Thats good! Yeah the Destiny Knot concept sucks. I think you can get it from somewhere else too but I don’t remember where. By the way,what’s your in game team? xD
ImgoodtooIjusthadmanyexams&IdidntplayorasforaweekImstillatdeltaepisode
I looked it up and that’s the one way…unless you have a secret pal thingy which I don’t xD No worries, I’ll find a way to get it.
For both? xD
OR: Swampert (Axol), Shiftry (Tengu), Manectric (Rai), Walrein (Candice), Camerupt (Vesuvius), Metagross (Event one, but I secretly nicknamed it Aurelia in my mind)
AS: Blaziken (El Diablo), Gardevoir (Athena), Ludicolo (Fiesta), Banette (Alma), Aggron (Trahern), Flygon (Mindy)
I finished my last final Wednesday so I’m back home on winter break hang in thereI looked it up too and you can get it from your fans if you do master rank contests
Anyway I’ll get it somehow too.
I think AS is your “Main”. You have great teams 😀
My AS team is :
Sceptile (Evergreen), Altaria(no name), Sharpedo(Courtney), Manectric (Laxus), Camerupt (Flare) and Claydol (Bickslow)
I don’t start the winter break until the next week.
Yeah, AS is my main :3
Nice team as well! :3
Hang in there!Yay 😀 #TeamAqua #TeamAlphaSapphire
Thank you :3
we should talk more somewhere ;; maybe on chatango or twitter? i feel like i need to talk with you
There are. Just most of us haven’t had time to work on stuff. I work 8-5 and 6-9 Tuesdays and Thursdays and class every other day. There are reasons.
Correction:
I wish more comp battlers were available to battle more
That’s better. Get on Twitter.
Why?
There are lots of competitive battles there.
Ok
Thanks I will try it out
Y’know what I hate. When people pronounce “Smog-on” “Smoag-on”
I hate that as much as the people that think Smogon is official.
Smogon IS official!
No. I hate you.
I was just kidding XD I don’t even know what Smogon is. Love ya 😉
XD don’t mess with a pirate.
D:<
What
So I just made a team around mega lopunny, it’s probably my favorite besides beedrill
Lopunny you mean?
Yas
I love Mega Lopunny’s cry. I’m using it just for that.
I’m making one too, my first comp team really.
I can help you test if you want. Preferably on showdown
Right now, I’m just trying to make my star in my game to see how long and tedious the process will be :3 More or less preparing.
Plus I need to remake it, as the team is on my laptop showdown and isn’t on my computer one.
While mega beedrill is fun to use. It’s annoying that I have to waste a move slot for protect to get the mega speed boost.its easy to predict around . However, it hits like a truck
Do you run Jolly or Adamant?
Jolly but I might start running adamant. I think a adamant beedrill still out speeds a timid greninja. I think I’ll stick with jolly though. I like speed
Jolly out speeds everything except Mega Aerodactyl and Alakazam and Deoxys and Ninjask. I would stick with that.
I don’t really understand the whole doubles/VGC arguement for mega audino. Why would you use your mega slot for a support Pokemon when you could use it for mega mence, bro, Mawile or kangaskhan. Also Cresslia, florges and clefable slyveon are a thing. Mega audino is garbage
That’s the point. It isn’t affected by common typing like Ghost and Dragon, but has great support moves. It isn’t offensive so it sucks. I may try using it eventually though.
Yeah it’s a great support Pokemon. It would be good for a regular evolution but for a mega, nah. There’s competition for a team’s mega slot and I think most people would want a power house ( mawile, mence or gallade) over audino
No Bandanna Archie is best. He’s so cute and fluffy.
But the Archie in your pic is quite hairless
I only used that to make everyone here awkward. He has chest hair though.
Hairy Archie is bae. Don’t you just wanna vacuum that carpet of a chest?
Yes.
It’s a swimming cap actually
Jen
No this is Defensive.
Well duh
Yes bae
You wanna battle on showdown? Monotype?
Ughhh why must i be a game-o-holic with spontaneous game cravings
I wan’t to play so many games at the same time
OR & AS (got my 7th badge)
World of Warcraft
Smash4wiiu
Link between worlds
I’ve been having Majora’s Mask cravings
i’ve put off Earthbound for 3 months (still haven’t found Paula)
and lastly i’ve been actually wanting to replay Mario Galaxy
Have you guys ever had these kinda gamer moments?
Funny you should say you have been wanting to play Mario Galaxy because I’ve been feeling the same way. Really want to play it but can’t find it ;~;
what i truly want to replay (which i don’t know how i missed adding it) Twilight Princess
But alas i’ve lost the copy maybe i’ll dip into my savings and shell out 20 bucks on amazon for a used copy
Kinda, but on a lesser scale.
Like, I want to play Fossil Fighters (but I’m waiting until next year/when I found out the release date for that new one) and ORAS and sometimes Zelda and just arrggghhh
I can’t wait for Majora
I really want to play it, since I want to play as many Zelda games as I can, so I’m glad one on the 3DS is coming out 😀
I never finished Majora too complicated. I only got to the witches. XD
Go and finish it. Its my favorite Zelda game.
Feh i’ve beaten Majora’s mask to completion like 3 times
Hey Earthen is Smash Wii U nice? I wanted to get it since I don’t have the 3ds one.
it’s effing amazing (though i wish they could’ve put all stages on the Wii U one but nonetheless a must have game
Yup right now i want to play
ORAS
Twilight Princess
Wind Waker
Shin Megami(all of the games)
Persona Q
Ace Attorney DD
Ace Attorney Miles Edgeworth 2
Smash 3DS
..
But I have exams ;~;
SHINY MAGNEMITE! I can finally add one to my team! Another dream shiny found!
If only the other magnemites in the horde would stop using supersonic -_-
Tell me if you catch it!
Just did! Another shiny to add to my Omega Ruby team! Not doing a badge quest or anything, but I wanted to have some of my team be shiny. Just need to get Shiny Swablu!
Are you a nerd for Oreos or Zelda?
Both XD
Jk I’m a nerd for Zelda with a love for Oreos <3

Like…what is this
I think it’s a video but I’m not sure. I don’t want to click the link
It’s a showdown replay
It has begun.
(Rf)
Wut is rf?
Refresh dumby
Why is Nick so dumb? Let’s kill him!
and his 3ds
Refresh. Disqus noob.
It has come down to this.
All of my pokemon have beaten every one of his pokemon.
Manectric defeated Skarmory.
Shiftry defeated Aggron.
Gardevoir defeated Armaldo.
Altaria defeated Cradily.
Delcatty defeated Claydol.
And now, Mega Swampert vs. Mega Metagross.
(Rf)
He one-shotted my Swampert holy crap.
:O Even Mega?! Dannnggg
He didn’t for mine, but he did faint my Mega so he ended up facing, after I revived him, a non-Mega Swampert.
Me too!
He swept my entire team but my Camerupt destroyed megagross
Good luck!
I always try to make sure it happens that way, like, one Pokemon for each one. More dramatic that way :3
After an OHKO from Giga Impact, Swampert lived again to defeat Mega Metagross and win the championship!

It had no potential stars but I think it had ThunderPunch as an egg move
Fake Out as the egg move, sorry
NICK NAME IT UMMMMMMM Cotton/Giselle/Mirajane/Strawberry idk
Fake Out is good I think ?
I already bred Fake Out for my comp…es all I will reveal for my comp Lopunny really, since Fake Out is an obvious choice for it xD
Hmmm, Giselle works :3 It has a Sassy nature xD
I really wonder whats your competitive team xD
Giselle is the princess from the Disney movie “Enchanted”
I don’t remember, since the team is on my laptop showdown and doesn’t show up on my computer one xD I might need to change it anyways xD
And I know, I have watched it xD Giselle is sorta sassy plus I kinda like her
Gosh so many people have shines. I’m so jelly ;~-~;. BRB going to finish the Delta Episode ;;;;;
I’ve never really been lucky with shinies until XYish.
But in my AS, I believe?, I found another shiny, my frist shiny found in the wild randomly, and it was a Kecleon found after using the Devon Scope…I called it Blue.
Same
I didn’t find any shiny yet ;~;
Keep on hoping :3 I wasn’t expecting one either until Blue and Giselle showed up xD
I love these credits omg
Here’s Giselle! I still need to nickname her. The other pic is Blue, since I don’t believe I have posted it yet
rf :3
:OOOO They’re so pretty <3
What nature is the Buneary? I see that it raises Sp. Def and has Klutz, which is interesting because mine is Calm and has Klutz 😛
It’s Sassy :3
This is just for collection’s sake.
I figured, I used my Shiny Buneary on my AS playthrough after I bred it in Platinum (with full odds, no foreign ditto or anything)
Nice 😀
Half way done with Breeding my new team
Shut up.
by the looks of it, sweetie, you will be the one shutting up, if you don’t drop that attitude
Don’t hate me cause I’m beautiful
I hate you because your base stats suck
And I hate you because you a ugly horse
an*
I hate you because you aren’t a silcoon.
I hate you because you exist
Your existence makes me wonder why parents let people like you go to college even though they will fail
You’re a waste of money
Damn.
Can we divorce now?
I’ve been asking for the papers for months.
You had them last!
Nope/
You are so irresponsible

I went on my Sapphire earlier today to transfer a Regice to ORAS (I don’t want to catch it b/c I want to hunt for a shiny one, but my Ds is being annoying and is making me wait 24 hrs ;~;)
Anyways i found a Box called “FEEBAS” with ~15 feebas (all caught in route 119), one of which was level 31, another level 34 (I guess I failed at making them evolve?), and one lvl 30 female Milotic :3
*heart eyes emoji*
Feebas and Milotics <3
Return of the Ds…
I still use my Ds, my brother’s Ds, my Dsi, and my 3ds to this day 😛
Quad hunting ftw
I wish I could quad hunt
I only can try hunt
but I mainly duo hunt
tri*
I really want to find my platinum edition DS ;~;
I REALLY need to win this ORAS themed 3DS XL
I wish they just put them for sale v.v
I would buy them
Do they normally put them for sale after the competition?
What does it look like and how do we enter?
(refresh)
Looks like that and you have to buy pokemon accessories from GS then put the code in megastop.com and if you win it will say so
But if you live near me don’t enter
I want to win for my gamestop
they look awesome right?
Hell Yeah.
That’s why I want one soooo bad they look so epic!
Is it a winner for each Gamestop?
I think
But I hope it is more for each GS here is what serebii said:
“A new promotion has been announced for the US. In Gamestop, which is now being called MegaStop. Until December 31st, when you purchase a variety of Pokémon items at Gamestop, you will be entered in sweepstakes to win digital booster packs for the Trading Card Game Online and a chance to win either one of 50 special Pokémon Nintendo 3DS XLs or a trip to Hawaii if you redeem at least 2 codes. To enter, you need to redeem a code on your receipt on the official website”
They said only 50 but I am pretty sure there is more than 50 GS’s so I don’t know
I’ll learn more after my next paycheck. XD
