Shiny legendary Pokémon don’t come by every day, but for a limited time Shiny Rayquaza can be yours if you own a North American Pokémon Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire game. From August 12th through September 14th you can download it to commemorate the release of Pokémon TCG: XY—Ancient Origins.
Rayquaza also knows the move Dragon Ascent which allows it to Mega Evolve. So get downloading!

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Pokeball Pattern Vivillon
No shiny Rayquaza for me
*cries in swedish*
Better than a dumb Dragonite. But I’m still waiting on Jirachi.
I had legit bred and trained a Dragonite the day before the release of that. :/ mines better despite no cherish ball.
This is one event that I just couldn’t miss.
Wow, so you’re telling me that my shiny 6 IV Adamant Rayquaza that I got in Emerald on my first SR is less valuable now? Shame… :/
I hope it gets a burn
Oh I got mine alright. I actually really like Shiny Ray Ray more than the normal one.
I’d like to share this leak I found on 4chan today. It was a huge thread with lots of people calling it fake, but it was deleted oddly too early (as you can see, it was only alive for about 4 hours). Take a look and see what you think.
I’m calling fake. No screenshots or anything.
It’s probably fake, but it’s also VERY specific. I’m calling it fake just to be safe.
Well, we’ll just have to wait until worlds to find out.
Not too much longer until then. I haven’t watched any Worlds before, but I will this time.
U still have a screenshot of it?
Honestly tho I love reading leaks and rumors of stuff like this. Even if I suspect its fake it just gets my hype up for the games even more.
I normally wouldn’t post rumors like this, but I thought it would be smart to bring a bit of discussion to this site.
I think how specific this is actually makes it less credible. Hypothetically speaking if the games are announced this month, we’ve still got to wait at least 6 months or so until they are released. These are months in which the games are still in development and plans can change rather quickly.
The second red flag is that this is off of 4chan. People claim that they work for NoA or something similar but they don’t have as much in depth information as a GF employee would, and they wouldn’t use 4chan, they’d use the Japanese “version” 2ch. Leaks this specific wouldn’t come from an american source, so yeah definitely fake. It’s fun to speculate again though. 😛
Lol. ‘For every Zygos on the players team Zygarde’s power increases’
First Digimon, now Yu-gi-oh. What next…Dragonball Z Super Saiyan mode…calling it.
Not opposed to what he was saying entirely………not only is he from 4chan, but he also said some things I think would never happen like getting a new batch of starters….lol
And a Dark Type Gym Leader…
Oh right I forgot it said that hahaha That was the biggest flag for me and I started to chuckle to myself when I read it lol
Honestly I like some of the ideas…but most of it just a fans wishlist.
I can personally see 2 megas for Zygarde…maybe more Pokemon for Gen 6 and the idea of having a second setting next to Kalos (which could explain the new Pokemon).
But that’s probably asking for a bit much…
Oh yeah the whole thing came across as a wishlist rather than something that could actually happen. I the the fact that it’s as detailed as it is, is a flag in it’s own right.
Regardless of that, he/she does point out a reveal at Worlds which is what we’re all thinking. I’m putting my money on it.
Well yeah I’m pretty positive that there’ll b a reveal at worlds. There’s been so much silent build up to the reveal that I don’t think it can happen anywhere else. lol
Amiibos? Please let this not be real among other things such as Gen VI starters having 2 Megas (not needed).
Dya have any idea of how fast they would sell out at, only leading to higher prices on Ebay?
I still want to buy the 6 Smash Poke Amiibos but haven’t got round to that because I don’t feel like paying £20 + when the original price is like £10 but they’re out of stock
You can get some pretty decent prices on Amazon now. Higher than MSRP, sure, but in the $20-$30 range for some rares. If this was to happen, pre-ordering would be a requirement.
Mega Hawlucha with garish headdress, give me that Aztec Emperor look!
Ew
Grass psychic mega chesnaught
I don’t believe it
Chesnaught can’t get psychic attacks
Absolutely fucking fake, if you believe this you are incredibly dumb
Megas do not lose their primary typing so in this case Zygarde which is a Dragon/Ground type it being a Ground/Fairy or Ground/Dark is incredibly absurd
Actually, I don’t think that’s the reason we should believe that this is fake. There are other absurdities than mega changing type in above text. We must be ready to except the unexpected from Pokemon. Megas might change their primal typing, there is no rule about it, nor it is what defines a megaevolution process.
and besides why would we get new Starters this early, we’re still in Kalos
it’s a load of fanboy wishes and will get nothing more then harshness from me
(but i do like the name Zygos and Smokub)
He’s just responding to what u said in regards to megas, and so was I. That right there about the starters probably is illogical, who knows.
T_T it’s 4Chan they’re always faking info
this is 100% bullhonkey and you guys are far too believing when it comes to things you want being dangled
Besides isn’t it a little ironic that the Mega Kalos shift their secondary typing? and that Mega ZX is a Fairy and Mega ZY is Dark…. zero thought and unless they mention it’s attack oration then because Mega Mewtwo and Charizard X are Physical and Mega Mewtwo and Charizard Y is Special and i don’t think this’ll work out
Lol. No one said it was real…but that wasn’t the argument
Exactly!!
Read my mind
My first response to you included the words “I still do think its fake” so I dont think its real either….
Again, I was only responding to your notion that megas cant lose their primary typing lol.
Ya megas not losing their primary typing isnt really a good reason to call this fake lol, but yeah I still do think its fake.
Alright name one Pokemon that loses their primary typing
Dude u act as if they can’t or will never change what we currently have…..unless u have some insider info u’d like to share with the class I think that’s not a very fair point to make. Still it’s obviously fake, but whatever…….lol
Answer the question
It doesn’t matter what we have currently tho….GF is gonna do what they want and if that turns out making as being a mega that removes primary typing then there’s not a whole lot u can do about it……..
A mon getting its primary typing removed isn’t even that big of a deal. You’re sorta acting like its gonna be some gamebreaking thing. It wouldn’t be something difficult for them to do lol. Again, I’m only responding in regards to this mega cant lose their primary typing thing.
It is sooooo big a deal, their Primary type is what defines it
No Pokemon capable of Mega Evolution NEVER lose their Primary Typing
Is that some sort of rule? If regular evolutions can why cant megas? You could say the same thing for regular evolutions, that “their primary typings define them” but we’ve seen it happen tons of times to regular evos.
When does a normal Pokemon lose their primary typing when they evolve?
AZURILL!!!
Alright but the rest is true, including this being totally fake
Swablu
Ehh fair enough but granted it’s a Flying type and they’re always secondary typing
Not always, Noibat line is primary flying type, which came to the scene in generation 6.
alright there’s that
but still doesn’t lose it’s primary typing
It’s like a unspoken rule Gamefreak has
Megas don’t lose their Primary Typing and if (and i surely hope we don’t see more of these) Pokemon with Duel Megas the X version is always Physical and Y Special
♪You only see what your eyes want to see ♫♬
I love this song!
Azurill, swablu, onix are the ones I can think of
Well referring to what belmad said, that fact that something hasnt happened yet isnt a great reason to say it can’t. We’ve already seen irregularities in regards to the normal patterns of megas, two in fact.
OK, this is pretty much a Black Swan event. “A belief that all swans are white because these were the only ones accounted for. However, in 1697 the Dutch explorer Willem de Vlamingh discovered black swans in Australia. This was an unexpected event in history and profoundly changed zoology. After the black swan were discoverd, it seemed obvious that black swans had to exist just as other animals with varying colors were known to exist as well.”
you’re avoiding the question
it’s fake and we all know it
The fact that it’s fake doesn’t make ur statement about a Pokemon losing it’s typing any less crazy……..lol
Darling, I’m not avoiding anything.
Up to Gen 5, there were no pure flying type Pokemon for example. We could all say No there sholdn’t be any pure flying type Pokemon, name one pure flying type Pokemon that is anounced etc, people would bring Arceus but people can say this is not the same thing, it’s a form difference etc… This is the same case.
A little bit too harsh for me, Earthen, but I agree with you that it’s most likely fake. Do you believe we’ll get a real game announcement at Worlds?
I agree with you. But there’s more than that to suggest it’s fake.
Thank you
Earthen, nobody said they believed the leak..
To be fair I agree with the idea that the Primary Type shouldn’t change when the Pokemon Megas.
Regardless of what GF chooses to do. It makes sense to me to keep the Primary type constant.
Hmm.
It threw me off at the three new starters and the two Mega Evolutions for each of the “original” Kalos starters. Same with the amiibo. However, I wouldn’t be opposed to having something like this be true, even in partial. But I wouldn’t get my hopes up. There’s a little too much that’s steering away from a typical Pokemon installment, and I think such changes are better saved for a new generation. But thank you for sharing this with us and livening the place up a bit. 🙂
You’re very welcome, Dicie! I hope all is well with you.
Thank you, and things have been going well. I hope everything is just as good with yourself.
This rumor is definitely fake because they mentioned a Dark type gym. Nice try, kid.
I wouldn’t be opposed to most of this, but I do think it’s fake.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be too disappointed if this turned out to be fake. The starters are completely boring and unoriginal, and the megas sound really odd
I so hope this is true haha, can’t wait to go on a new journey!
the big question is y it was deleted ?
Not buying the two megas each for Kalos starters.
I believed it right up to the point where he started talking about amiibos. I just can’t see Pokemon doing something like that just for minigame purposes.
I stopped believing right when it said New Starters
I’ve seen leaks with the same exact starter names and descriptions for Black and White. xD
They were somewhere on reddit, but I can’t find them anywhere.
Nice try though, leakers.
(And they probably deleted the post quickly because of how ashamed they were at their leak lol)
attaching a Pokemon to another… hmm it sounds like yu-gi-oh
So do you guys think something main story wise will be revealed at world’s?
I kinda don’t think so, but I hope something does, yet I just don’t think they will
What makes u think no? Just wondering….lol
It just doesn’t seem hyped enough…
I think that’s what’s most weird about this. Usually they do a little more than hint at an announcement, but this time they’re coming in under the radar.From the subtle hints they’re sending out I feel it’s a pretty good chance it’ll b a Worlds announcement. It would b pretty funny tho if they only announced a Pokemon Direct at Worlds and we basically got a an announcement for an announcement lol
I don’t care, i’m hopped up on fury
Then why bother commenting back,
Y so much fury?
Because this is a load of garbage
this 4Chan is 100% FAKE
People aren’t saying it’s real tho……….
The only one mentioning the legitimacy of the leak is you. I only included it to incite discussion.
http://memecrunch.com/meme/A7T7/this-is-a-load-of-barnacles/image.jpg?w=400&c=1
Nope. I just expect some minor info. Maybe even just a reveal of a new game(s).
When is World’s anyway?
21-23 I think
It seems to be a common belief. For the past two years they have revealed new Megas at the event, so having nothing this year would be unusual.
Especially with the full CoroCoro reveal of de blobmon and the Zygarde Mega next month which would only b a couple of weeks after
I sure hope so. It’s gonna take a good story and interesting story to get me to go back to the bland version of Kanto.
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-258913203
Wow, you lost.
T_T I destroyed them with Iron Head
It was a rather unimpressive sweep. Not only does Garchomp outspeed most, if not all of those Pokemon on your opponent’s side, you also landed a flinch and a crit with Iron Head, making those 2 Pokemon useless, which would have prevented the sweep completely. And Diancie? Well, it stood no chance, that thing dies to a bullet punch. It was a decent battle, but if the hax were on your side of the field, you would have gone ballistic and claimed that life hates you.
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/monotype-258774510
Fine what about this one
ur opponent have a nice technique but u beat him i think u r good ……..this battle enthuse me to return to Showdown , i would like to battle u but i should build my monotype team cuz i didn’t use it before .
i think u share this cuz just ur opponent use fairy type …. nice battle .
but y u didn’t use Hippowdon in the first … i mean u could have benefit from sand storm ?
Wow, it’s busy today!
Y’know… Relatively speaking
There’s going to be a lot more activity in the next month. We have Worlds coming up (which may have an announcement) and CoroCoro which will reveal multiple new Pokemon. Exciting stuff after a year of news drought.
I’ve hardly even touched my Omega Ruby copy since February. I only played it to get Diancie and Latias.
It felt a little disappointing imo
https://d3esbfg30x759i.cloudfront.net/ss/WVW69iSI8mIsNAHwl_
I made a stretchmo
The rarest of stretchmos
I did a little research this evening. Back in 2010, Zorua and Zoroark were revealed on February 10. Their games, Black and White, were later revealed on April 9 (just about 2 months later). Now, let’s go over what we know is going to happen in 2015. There are two scenarios: Blobgarde and Mega Zygarde will be revealed at Worlds next week…or we wait until September 10-12 for the CoroCoro reveal. Either way, we’re still looking at a late August/early September confirmation about the future of Pokemon. Now, we have two scenarios relating to the reveal of the next game(s). Either it/they will be announced to an eruption of pandemonium at Worlds, or we get a similar late announcement online. One can make a couple inferences with this information: the timing of the movie, CoroCoro announcement and Worlds are all oddly aligned, and would seem to suggest a simultaneous game reveal for 2016. That would target a March/April release date, which breaks the constant and boring Holiday release window for Generation 6. It’s not possible this time, due to the aforementioned Zorua/Zoroark situation. It’s also not realistic to wait until 2016 for a game reveal with new Pokemon hanging around for 6 months with nothing but online fan art keeping them company. My point of this rant is: We’re going to get reveals of both Blobgarde and Mega Zygarde and the new game(s) before the end of this year, either jointly or separately, and therefore will be released by Summer 2016.
Sorry for this rant. I’m sitting here watching episodes of TV episodes that I’ve already seen and just wanted to get my thoughts out.
I don’t want it to be another Black Ops series. I’d be fine with a year of spin offs then Gen 7. I mean, we could have a spin off that FINISHES Gen 6. They want a different formula. Anything could happen. I just hope it’s a game that doesn’t take 10 hours to beat.
I agree. Alongside this, the past two installments have been extremely lacking in terms of postgame content. That being said, I’d be fine waiting another year as long as there’s something to keep me busy after the initial story is complete. I haven’t touched my copy of Alpha Sapphire since February…
Seriously? You loser. Archie is waiting.
So…are you saying you do or don’t agree with me? I’m just glad that we’re not getting a main series game this year. It gives us time to breathe a bit.
Neither

Looks nice :]
it’s good but some parts i don’t like
mostly the head, with the helm plate removed he looks bald
Maybe if it was kept and pointing like a traffic cone but more cooler
also it looks thinner i want it beef
I see a hexagon pattern..
Mega Zygarde confirmed
Quit staring at his crotch you perv
I was looking at his arms and head
But now that you mention it…
(We know what you were thinking about
*still dies to a water gun*
it still would survive just enough to counter with Metal Burst
Cool, but the top of its head looks too bare to me.
I know i said that too
It should’ve a spiked out spike
Like think of a Traffic cone or a Trapezoid
This is awesome! I love the tail!

Man I’m already getting impatient and anxious for this new game announcement lol. Its to the point where like almost every day and I wake up hoping to see something on twitter or youtube, but nothing, just little hints here and there…
Worlds seems so far away too ;_;
Hello everyone! Glad that speculation time has come again! As for me, well, whether it be here or on Twitter, you’ve seen what I thought already. xD
I’m just so incredibly for Worlds this year, but I do have that 5% feeling of “What if we’re disappointed?”
I don’t know if that’s just me being pessimistic as I always am, but I’ve been thinking about that for a few days.
I miss you guys and need to start playing Pokemon again. This upcoming Pikachu Cup is going to be my reintroduction to competitive battling! I’m so excited!
If you have a 95% feeling that we’ll get an announcement, then it’s probably going to happen. I’m betting on new game reveals, but I won’t be disappointed if they wait until October/November to announce them. The more likely scenario is the reveal of “Blobgarde”, as I call it, and Mega Zygarde with a game reveal before the end of the year.
Also, I just spent the last few days binge-playing through all of FireRed and Black, to get back into the Pokemon spirit. I’m so ready for an announcement now. I’m thinking about buying either the original Gen 1+2 games on eBay or a New 3DS to get ready for whatever is to come.
use ur third eye to know the accurate thing about the announcement .
I sincerely hope we’re not disappointed. I mean with all the build up right now there’s no way they dont reveal the next game soon, even if its not at worlds.
I found an eBay listing that includes Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal Versions in acceptable-great condition with individual cases and new save batteries. It’s going for $170. Is this a good deal?
I like that deal
I can’t decide between it and a lot of 35 NES games. :/
I think that’s pretty good! Plus they’ll be worth more one day. I bought by Crystal version for $30 about 5 years ago so if you say each version is worth at least $30, you really should be paying $180.
Yeah, the seller took the item off temporarily so I think I’ll jump on it when it comes back!
I totally would! It’d be awesome to own all of those. I just have Red and Crystal.
It died again. Now I have the whole place to myself! *runs to dark corner*
I don’t even want to know what you’re doing in that corner.
Wanna help?
UMM NO THANKS
Do et! Comme on youre supposed to be nice to your fellow mods
Have you changed your mind?
I hope you haven’t been sitting in that corner all day. Now I have to use multiple disinfectants…
I’ll come back when something is revealed at world’s, which I doubt (or a new article)
*merges into the shadows*
unless anyone wants a battle….
I saw this in my YouTube subscription feed and just had to share it. You could say it caught me off guard.
http://youtu.be/vx4OFc5HRSs
i love this team u should listen to english version too , and the other team’s song it’s awesome .
I recently learned that HeartGold and SoulSilver were announced for the West at the 2009 Pokemon World Championships. Just a reminder that we could be 5 days away from news overload.
Well i hope we get something soon
the site is slowly reviving and people are playing Pokemon more often
Yeah i’m usually here around hype time. I remember during the summers before x and y came out I was on here constantly looking at all the so called “leaks” and rumors. Sigh~ Good times. I remember that one IAMTHELEAKER guy or whatever his name is lol. And when binacle, greninja, and hawlucha were leaked and lot of people were calling fake. I just cant wait for these times again lol. Don’t know why.
I’m never going to forget the hype leading up to X and Y. It was constant for the entire year of 2013. Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire weren’t too far behind, either. I can’t wait for the next game(s)!
Oh wow I didnt know that. Good info.
Holy crap
get this
I’m doing Omega Ruby’s Battle Chateau
i’m using Mega Gallade, i use Swords Dance, the opponent’s Flygon uses Swagger and i miraculously snap out of it next turn, but it uses U-Turn and into Forretress i kill it with Drain Punch into Shadow sneak, then kill the next thing no problem, then the Flygon uses Swagger again, 6 Attack boosts and i finally attack myself…
Gallade one-shots himself….
I finally downloaded Animal Crossing: New Leaf, if anyone still plays it…
i could play
Yassss visit my town sometime
I do! I still wish there was Wii U AC game coming though.. -_-
YAAAAAASSSSS
DETECTIVE HEART OF AMERICA MOVIE IS RELEASED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/005/033/62c.gif
this gif makes little sense, they just gather and form to zygarde, the gif didn’t even make it seem to form zygarde, Zygarde just came out of no where
it makes a lot of sense if your familiar to biology
basically imagine each one of the blobs as a individual cell, and a gigantic cluster of them forms a fully functioning organism in this case a fully formed creature which we call Zygarde
which we aren’t too far off,
and the evidence is kinda growing since we know that multiple creatures exist,
I am talking about the Gif itself like Normally it would form into it, but it randomly made zygarde with barely any formation, like I do that just by sticking a lot of wurmples together
well it’s fast acting (it’s a gif)
it had a tall figure then melted into initial shape then it’s body started developing the scales, tail then fringes and hood?
yeah that’s the theory i was talkin about .
That is oddly adorable. I want one of those little blobs already.
It took a while to negotiate, but I have finally have Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver and Crystal shipping here next week (hopefully by the time Worlds begins)! As a lifetime Pokemon fan, this is pretty momentous occasion. Maybe my little kids in the future will be playing these copies for themselves. They do have brand new batteries, after all!
that kinda thinking makes me so happy
If i can seduce a lady into pitty nasty and bring into this world a bastard son or daughter i would introduce them to the retroest of retro classics mainly N64 and Gameboy games despite decades have being past and far superior games existing or not the games of today kinda sucked
Wow, pitty nasty…never heard that one before. But yeah, by the time I even consider having kids I might have a massive video game collection. One of the biggest problems for me will be deciding what to keep for myself and what to give to my children.
