Nintendo is literally the worst company when it comes to lore/canon/etc...
I don't even bother.

Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire |OT| Hoenn Finally Confirmed
- Thread starter ColtraineGF
- Start date
As long as that happens after the DP remakes I approve of this outcome.
Oh good.
Original canon is destroyed by the meteor then. We got megas from here on out.
That's amazing!
I am dying right now.

A screenshot of the dexnav at a higher level implies it might be a bit more than Abilities and egg moves:
Potential=IVs. I guess for nature synchronise lead will have to be used.
That part of the comment wasn't dexnav related, Marshtomp getting rock slide is a change to its level up move list. Most Hounen Pokemon have a few new things added like that. This tends to happen for later games in gens (see also Metal Claw Charmander in FRLG...you get it just in time for fighting Brock).
Man this thing is even more broken than Exp Share. I'm watching Shofu's play through and he got a Lvl 15 Taillow with BoomBurst. Regular tailllows in the area were level 6 with tackle and dumb stuff like that.

By a long shot. Randoms on Battlespot are all pretty much just going to be determined by whose Mega Ray is faster now. A pokemon with Prankster might be able to paralyze him or put him to sleep , but since he doesn't need a Mega Stone I'm guessing there are going to be Lum Berry MegaRays everywhere.
Oh, I misinterpreted what you said.
I read that as Steven had a different plan but Zinnia just warped it to R/S/E instead.

Yeah,
if the meteor had blown up RSE Hoenn then the leaders couldn't have shown up in B2W2

Ohhh, so this is why we don't get a Battle Frontier in the remakes. Right?
Zinnia has brought punishment to the new world

Well it already went RSE/FRLG --> DPPt/HGSS --> BW --> B2W2 --> XY, so that still fits. I imagine that
any potential return to Kanto wouldn't occur concurrently with ORAS, though.
Yup, it's definitely happening now.
OK guys, I need to know. How trumpet-tastic is the soundtrack? My nostalgia demands trumpets!

The timelne stuff makes it sound like Gen VI starts its own thing. Gens 1/2 basically don't exist, Gens 3-5 are the Meteor Free timeline while Gen 6 is the Meteor timeline.
I'd like to know this as well, and if the same is true for Rayquaza.You can reset for a good Latias right? She's one of my favorite Pokemon so yeah
EDIT: Oh and will Synchronize work?
Oh, and you can use Kalos bred Pokemon in the OR/AS Battlespot, right?

Mega Rayquaza can use Items? Jesus Christ.

So I'm not sure, but there are two ways it can happen:
The first is the same as if he was holding a megastone, and you just choose to evolve before you pick the attack (This is what dudes on pokemon boards are saying it is, but I haven't seen it myself yet). What sucks about that is that Kyogre and Groudon are the only ones with weather that can cancel Delta Stream, which removes MegaRay's 4x weakness to ice, and they both evolve as soon as they're brought out. So Rayquaza can just wait until Kyogre is out and then Mega Evolve to cancel Primordial Sea and activate Delta Stream and from there it's GG.
The second way is like Kyogre and Groudon, where he evolves as soon as he enters combat. I don't think this is how it works, because otherwise it'd be impossible to just have a normal Rayquaza. But if it does somehow work like this then that's good, because Kyogre can get rid of Delta Stream and ice beam him. But that's basically the only possible way to beat him without sacrificing half your team.

Probably a direct form change like the Rotoms or Sky Shaymin so it enters into battle already Mega.
Or maybe it's like Meloetta and involves using Dragon Ascent.

The new tracks that didn't have trumpets in the original sound fantastic. This includes stuff like Route 113 and Lilycove City which are just awesome now.
The new tracks that had trumpets in the original sound terrible IMO. Route 119, Magma/Aqua Grunt battle, etc. are ruined now. Especially the Title Theme, it sounds a lot worse.
For me, the OST is really polarizing. Yoko Shimomura's (supposed) track is cool I guess. I don't think it's her though.

The brand new tracks that weren't in RSE at all sound fucking incredible. The few I've heard, anyway.
Rival theme sounds lame now, though.

it's here if you haven't heard it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0qjNuQ68AY&index=23&list=UUi2pBOS3inPU4Aoi3t_NDpQ
I like it even if it doesn't have trumpets.
As I said, the new ones with trumpets just suck.

So I came in here to see if I should get Omega Ruby now or wait a few months and then I read this.
Twhaht? You guys are going to have to draw me a picture... Or I should wait 1 more week till Europe is allowed to buy remakes of the best pokemon games.
I see. Thanks.
Whatever the case, the implications for Ubers are going to be interesting.
The latter is the only way I can imagine this to be not-terrifying.
Ubers is already a banlist, so that'd be quite a feat.

Excellent job on the OT, OP! Won't be able to play it day one, unfortunately, but I do plan on playing it by year's end. Shamefully, I never completed Ruby nor Sapphire, so this will be an almost entirely new experience for me. Hope everyone has fun!

How's the new Route 113 music? That is one they had better not have messed up.

Oh, I might have accidentally listened to a fan-made Rival theme... that one is pretty good.

Is there any way to transfer Hold Items and Mega Stones from my Pokemon Y?
It's bullshit that because I buy my games from the eShop and because I only own a single 3DS, I don't have anyway of transferring all my Items and Stones and EV Training and Breeding tools...
