Pokémon Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire : November trailer
- Thread starter L~A
- Start date
Haha, my first thought.
That ZInnia is really cute, and it's awesome to see a new story attached to the game!
I really like how they are making it easier to get all these legendaries from older generations. I can understand it's because a lot of tournaments don't allow older gen pokemon.
Zinnia has a Wismur... Mega Exploud COming? Oh man I already use a normal Exploud on one of my teams and it is devistating... a Mega Exploud with Boomburst... I fear for everything.
I still havent downloaded the demo or redeemed my Diance code. I should do that tonight. Was only gonna get Alpha Saph, but may need to get Ruby now as well

Ah okay, good to know. Super hyped for this game, I'll get to play it on the train on my way to NYC!
I fear there will be version exclusives AND that your starter determines which you can get
Ah thanks for that info! I was getting Saph because I really want Latias, but now I know that she is available on ruby is awesome... sucks that my shiny Latias turns puke green when she mega evolves
Yeah, that sounds very likely... so unless you buy 3 versions, you will have to trade for one of them
I made the mistake to choose the same starter in both X and Y (after getting all of them) but now I know what to do.
Still plan on restarting Y sometime for the other 2 birds.

You said legendaries; not mythical (the official term for event legendaries). If we want to add mythical add about 15 to that count.

Going for maximum confusion, perhaps they can also decide to break up trios.
get one regi based on starter.
the genies work like in gen 5
Get one of raikou, virizion, and mesprit based on which starter you choose in ruby
get one of entei, terrakion, and uxie based on the starter you choose in emerald.
get gen 6 versions the first two pokemon in a trio in one game to unlock the third.
keldeo will be a gamestop-exclusive event where the code only works for your game if you already have a gen 6 ponyfucker trio.
In addition, a darkrai event will randomly be distributed by spotpass to select users during the nighttime hours in their area to represent nightmares, and then passed on by streetpass to others.
if this joke comes true then gamefreak hates us.
I'm sure there are still people who are giving away demo codes in that ORAS demo thread here on GAF. Go check it out.

I wasn't going D1 for this game but riding Mega Rayquaza to space fight against Deoxys?All my money ,man.All of it.
Here's the first mega Deoxys image:

And the data from the demo does not suggest they do.
Before people get too excited however... Remember that the movepools of the pokemon available in the demo were altered to avoid finding new moves through grinding.
Looks like braille returns then, that's cool. And I doubt they would move them from their locations in the original game - I can't see them being in "mirage spots" whatever those are.
I'm imagining a lot of the legendaries will be version exclusive. X/Y though were notable in the lack of legendaries, and an oddity - I hope that wouldn't become the new normal. The lack of legendaries was only noticeable because it had no trio and no extra, non-event legendaries like D/P and B/W.

The Delta Episode looks insane. Can't wait!
And wow at the amount of legendaries. Hnnggghhh

TO SPACE
SPACE TRAVEL CONFIRMED MY CHILDHOOD DREAMS HAVE COME TRUE! And fuck the rocket, riding rayquaza into space is 10x more badass.
Yup. She's insane.
She seems cool, insane characters are always good. And the more NPCs with mega stones the better.
Damnit, Blaziken did not need Ice Punch. At least it's already banned on Smogon, but fighting it on Battle Spot is going to be even more a pain in the arse.
Notably, Blaziken can't learn Ice Punch according to the demo datamine. This means the demo data isn't based on the final build.
Even given this, I still wouldn't count on new Megas. Don't get your hopes up.

Or it means they made a mistake.
I honestly can't see Blaziken getting Ice Punch.
They've had Pokémon using moves they can't have on the official site before.
But hell, I could be wrong. I'll know for sure when the Japanese site updates tomorrow morning.
official website said:
Seems pretty intentional to me, though it is strange (are the any other Fire-types that can learn Ice moves?)
From what I can gather, Victini got Glaciate through an event and Castform in sunny weather gets Powder Snow, Ice Beam, and Blizzard. So other than events and type-changing, no.

just need a Battle Frontier confirmation or Battle Resort being a renamed one and XY is officially dead to us all except for the legendarys
She's a crazy person, isn't he?
The "Blaziken can learn Ice Punch" confirmation is coming from pictures on the site, not just text. Pretty sure that's not a mistake.
As have "Diancie can learn Power Gem", but it can't
As I said, we'll see tomorrow. The western site has made these sorts of slight mistakes before, but if it's on the Japanese, then we know it's legit.

Cool, wasn't expecting to see a new character design this zany. I love the idea of the Delta Episode, since Pokémon doesn't normally deal with extraterrestrial affairs. More importantly, it's a creative way to let players get one of the most creative legendaries.

It might be able to learn Power Gem in ORAS though.
