Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire - Official Discussion Topic

[Hero of Winds 2,576]

Junchi Masuda had this to say on why customization isn't returning:

 

 "In terms of the customization of the trainer, that was really kind of a special thing for the Kalos region, which featured this kind of motif of France and really focused on this beauty and fashion aspect, which is why it was a prominent feature in that game. For this game, we're focusing on adventuring elements, so we don't have the actual free customization of the trainer, but you'll see the items you use throughout the game visually represented; for example, when you're underwater, you'll have this little mouthpiece that lets you breathe. So there's some cool stuff for how your trainer changes clothes and puts on accessories throughout the game."

Basically, we now know that Customization is lazily reasoned as a special feature for Kalos just because they wanted to focus on the aspect of beauty and fashion. 

 

 

What?

Yet he forgot about Pokemon Battle Revolution? Wasn't Kalos, yet had customization. Oh boy what a expected, yet poor reason.

So apparently some people were able to make a dump of the demo with text strings like location names and the base stats for the new mega evolutions / primal reversions. You can find the link in the spoiler tag below, but obviously there's a major spoiler alert. Don't say I didn't warn you!

I just looked at it, and

 

 

I didn't see any spoilers, unless Mega Hoopa counts. I think it was something that should have been obvious anyway, since Diancie's getting one.

I'm surprised about Mega Hoopa, makes me wonder if Volcanion will get one, too. Also, there's this.: http://prntscr.com/4wl92m Unknown locations to my knowledge.

Whoa whoa whoa, spoiler tags. Not everyone wants to know about that.

It's fine. Just put "

180 base atk... Holy shit. RP+SD P-Groudon=rekt. 

 

So much for Dragon's Ascent being the most powerful flying type.

 

In general, the signature moves seem like shit unless they have another effect. Pretty sure they will since Kyorge's signature is identical to Hydro Pump.

 

And... I think that's all the megas if that's all they found in the demo. Now before anyone goes saying "it's just a demo", strange that even Mega Hoopa is there. Going by that, that should be all the megas unless at the last moment they add a few more. (I really hope for the latter, half ot these megas don't really please me look and/or stat wise).

What... the... firetruck is that? Looks like something that came out of Yu-gi-oh. Another one of those "based off but we don't improve the look" type of legendaries, like the genie trio.

 

I'm surprised shiny Primal Groudon and Kyogre aren't gold/pink respectively. I guess black is cool, but looks better on M-Rayquaza, which originally had black as a shiny.

 

And the sad news is that is all the megas for ORAS. No Mega Flygon or Milotic. I doubt they'll add last minute megas as we're 1 month away from release date.

Mega Rayquaza still looks great as a Shiny. Groudon and Kyogre don't look bad, but they feel kind of strange to look at.

 

Also, Mega Hoopa... What was going on when they came up with that design?

So apparently Cloud Nine negates the move-negating effects of heavy weather. They did the math for a Sp. Attack maxed Golduck using Surf on a Sp. Def maxed Primal Groudon and it's a guaranteed one-hit KO.

Golduck confirmed for ubers?

lol so much for "heavy weather." 

 

Golduck is still a gimmick if one uses it on ubers.

Demo codes should be sent by now. I just got mines.

[Dio Brando 5,810]

Still waiting for mine to arrive in case I got one

Same here... They said everyone who gets the newsletter should get a code, but I'm starting to get worried. Everyone seems to be getting theirs now. I hope this is like the Smash demo, and they're just distributing a few of them at a time.

[Ace326 79]

Yeah I have been getting the newsletter for like 2 years now and there is no email.

[OmegaForte 1,674]

From a post I saw on FB, someone asked customer service and they said their sending out the codes in batches. It may take up to a week.

 

Also for whoever has Gmail, check promotions folder or something like that. And as always, check spam folders.

 

From my experience, the music is great. Once again I'm hooked on Magma/Aqua's theme. There isn't much to do tho.

 

 

if you use Grovyle, be prepared for OHKOs at the end. In other words, MSceptile still sucks in the defensive department that a uninvested SE attack rekts.

Basically, the NA department's doing yet another terrible job at something that everyone else already got their hands on...wonderful.

Everyone laughed I said there would be mega gen 5 pokemon in OR/AS. They said "lol, nintendo said no gen 5 pokemon, dumbass". Obviously Nintendo was talking about XY! WE GOT AUDINO!

 

These are Pokemon that I think deserve Megas, and are in Gen 5.

 

Seperior

Emboar

Samurott

(Seriously, the mega gen 5 starters could look so bad-ass)

Gigalith

Excadrill

Scolipede

Crustle (Oh my god. Imagine Crustle getting a sandcastle on it's back in mega form)

Sigilith

Gothitelle

Reuniclus

Haxorus

Bisharp

Braviary

Mandibuzz (Okay, not really, but if you have Braviary, you need Mandibuzz. Version exclusives)

Hydreigon

Genesect

 

 

Yeah, I know it's a lot, but those are all awesome pokemon that could look epic in mega form. 

 

 

 

And also, for whatever reason we get Gen 5 remakes, I'd like Bleak Black and Ivory White.
