Pokemon Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby

[Garacesh]

Got my pre-order placed (on Amazon, not via GAME.. I don't much care to pay extra for a special metal tin)

 

I admit I was a little disappointed with X/Y and I'm really hoping these remakes aren't as easy.

[Grey-gear]

I'm going to pre-order it as well I hear that there is a second story line in it as well as 14 legendary Pokémon from the other games.

[Garacesh]

According to the latest advert on YouTube, there are, yes. There's some new villain, and a lot of the Legies.. The 3 dogs are there, the 4 Regi's, the.. Other ones (You/Me/Us.. Uzie? Mespirit? I forget the other?).. Also more Mega Evolutions and also 'Primal Reversion' (they're really milking it now...)

 

Mega Grovyle looks silly. It has a Christmas tree tail.. Mega Blaziken looks pretty cool, and Mega Swampert reminds me of the tank from L4D

 

I downloaded the 'demo' as I pre-ordered on Amazon and got a code. It looks pretty good.

[X-13]

I haven't done anything for this... I really can't be bothered.

 

 

Ninty have the eshop, but are still doing time sensitive WiFi and physical events for things you can't get in-game [i.e 99% of the content]

 

 

I think I'm done with pokemon...

Hopefully with the extra story stuff it will be fun, now that there are 3 new starters with a mega form I wonder if they will be doing the others as well or waiting for the next gen of games to do that.

Yeah, that does bug me a little, but I won't be buying into any of that lark anyway. I actually really enjoyed Ruby/Sapphire first time round, so it's partially the nostalgia.

Well they've already done Charizard (x2) Bulbasaur* and Squirtle*, Blaziken, Swampert, Grovyle, Lucario, Abomisnow, Gardevour.. Did they do the starters for X/Y? I think they did, but don't recall.. and probably a fair few more.

I'd personally like to see Mega Eeveelutions.

 

* I assume, since in X/Y when you pick a pokemon from Professor.. whoever.. he gives you the -ite for it, but I picked Charizard so I only know of Charizardite X/Y

Given there already is a Mega Blaziken maybe there will be a second one like Charizard X & Charizard Y

I'd like to see the other elements get an Eeveelution first! I imagine Fighting would be a silly looking one though...

 

Still haven't beaten the Elite Four though over four different copies of this game.

Maybe. I didn't actually bother raising my Torchic that I got with Y, though, so I don't know off the top of my head what X/Y Mega Blaziken looked like.

Yeah, true. I'd love to see a Ghost-type Eevee.

(Also just noticed your signature and alt-text. Ha. Nice )

Reminds me I need to change it every Monday....

[Garacesh]

I don't get the new one xD

[Tesla]

I'll stick with pokemon Blue

You hipster genwunners

[Grey-gear]

So Got a copy and finding it fun, I do link the pokefind thing that helps you find the pokemon you want and has a chance of knowing a egg move. On top of that it the world so for has looked amazing.

I'll be playing it on this bad boy.

 

[Garacesh]

Started it last night after I got home (been away all weekend.. should've taken it with me for the hour+ journey each way, really..), got about 20 minutes in and realised I needed to go to Tesco. Bah.

 

Picked Mudkip, obviously*. Game looks awesome, and the few issues with low framerate on the top screen during battles that X/Y had seem to be sorted, but I've not done a whole lot of battling yet so we'll see.

 

*Because A) Mudkip, and B) Mega Marshtomp looks awesome. Reminds me of the tank from L4D. Better than Christmas-tree-butt.

There is also a shiny pokemon you can get if you go through mystery gift

Yeah, but, which pokemon? If it's like a Haunter, Ralts, Eevee, any starter, etc, gimme gimme gimme. If it's a Krabby (which incidentally is the one and only shiny I've ever encountered, if we're not counting 'the' Red Gyrados) then I'll pass

[Grey-gear]

it's a shiny beldum with the mega stone for it

[Garacesh]

Ooh I'm kind of okay with that actually..

[Grey-gear]

yeah I would be using it if I did not already have a Physic type in my team
