I hope it's early. As an american I hope it won't be near thanksgiving, at least not the days after. Too much pushing...
3 more days until E3 |
Serebii has scan up!! Starter Megas and more!
I like the Mega Swampert even if it is a bit silly. Was not a fan of the basic Swampert. Sceptile looks... the same, but becomes a Dragon. |
Beware, spoilers:
Spoiler:

I already said my opinions on the Mega Evolutions in the Mega Evolution thread.
Anyway, I like Brendan's new design; at least we can confirm that he's actually wearing a hat, not having white hair. I like May's old design better, but I'm starting to warm up to the new one. I can't help but wonder why they changed up the designs for the evil teams, though |
Of course, Steven researches about Mega Evolution since he obsessed with stones. And Mega Evolution has a lot of them.
...does that mean Mega Evolving will be available pre-league? And can I just say how I miss Maxie's old design now? :'< |
pretty cool but i find the mega ability's for sceptile and swampert a bit odd
|
I loooove Team Aqua's new designs, but Team Magma is pretty boring. Maxie looks exactly like Colress if Colress died his hair, and that admin looks like Xerosic and the grunts look like Team Flare. I loooove the Aqua grunts.
Anyway, the new megas look fantastic. Looks like I'll be picking Treecko! But why does Steven use CharX over MegaAggron....? |
Quote:
I like some of the mega evolutions but the Team Magma and Aqua redesigns look generic and hideous. The new character designs look awful too and seem to be made up of recycled parts from old designs (May looks way to much like Serena). |
guys please pm me with this answer !
i noticed that everyone has new design. even may and brendon. do u guys think these characters will show up in the anime? or its just in the game? perhaps may will show up in xy ? :OO thanks ! |
Archie look so boss!

Quote:
Because not even a Steel-Type Trainer will use Mega-Aggron in Smogon OU :'( Why No Love for Aggron, the Best Pokemon??? |
I figured Swampert and Sceptile were going to get a mega evolution. Definitely choosing Sceptile now based on looks and being part dragon now. The new look for Brendan looks cool and now you can tell he's wearing a hat.
|
Diancie (Spoiler)
Has anyone notice about Diance picture in Corocoro new release?
It seems like it will be getting a mega evolution. What do u guys think ? :O |
Starting to warm up to the redesigns. I find May and Brendan's outfit amusing though. It seems like they are ready to hit the beach or something. Still intrigued about the Kyogre and Groudon formes though. Swampert looks so tanky >w<

Quote:
cuz usually characters in new games have a return in the anime. what do u think? |
Team Aqua looks a lot better than Team Magma in my opinion. That one guy on steroids.. xD
|
Here's my thoughts on the revealed stuff:
The Mega Sceptile design looks pretty nice, although I don't think Lightning Rod complements it well as far as abilities go. It its Grass/Dragon-type though which is a combination we've never had yet, although that 4x Ice weakness is gonna suck, alongside other weaknesses of Poison, Flying, Bug, Dragon and Fairy. Yeah it gets pretty weakness-heavy so it's essentially gonna be hard mode for anyone who picks Treecko. Mega Swampert on the other hand looks really ugly with those huge fists, almost made me think it became a Fighting-type at first but apparently it remains Water/Ground. Swift Swim was an interesting ability choice though, but I guess that can help overcome its low Speed in the rain. I was going to try and stay true to my pick of Mudkip in the original but now I'm not so sure, if it is too ugly I might actually end up picking Torchic this time around (I really do like Mega Blaziken's design plus Mega Sceptile looks kinda shafted to me), given that I go for the Fire starter if I don't like the Water starter's design. I do like Mudkip's line but Mega Swampert will take longer to grow on me than I first expected. I love the new uniforms for the Team Magma and Team Aqua grunts, although I have some complaints regarding the new Team Aqua designs. First off, they are all dark-skinned now (I guess Game Freak wants to make more ethnic diversity with the characters but now they feel so weird compared to the original) and I don't like that new male Aqua Admin design. Archie does look really cool though. A Mega for Diancie was also unexpected, but I like the chandelier-like design there. Still, it looks really good and no disappointment design-wise there. It's always what I always imagined for it should it have gotten a Mega. And now the protagonist redesigns which I have mixed reactions. I really don't like Brendan's new clothing, it looks a lot like a wetsuit in my opinion, similar to the one Nate (B2/W2 male protagonist) wore under his clothes. May on the other hand actually looks really cute with her new design, that bow in her hair is a nice little change to the usual hats that seem to be common with protagonists. I know her original design didn't necessarily have a hat, but I love how her clothing is now more in tune with Hoenn being the tropical region. The shorts do remind me of Hilda (B/W female protagonist) in some way though. |
Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or did Brendan get a tan and May became more white? (No racism intended).
Hoenn is largely tropical so I guess the new outfits kinda suit them better... |
For me team magma looks more like scientists and team aqua looks like pirates which i find interesting. Treecko is going to be definitely my choice, even with a Mega of 4x weakness, maybe it will have more speed and sp attack to compensate the weakness plus dragon types are cool and this is the first dragon grass in existance so I must get it. I wonder how the stats are going to change for primal dialga?, no sorry I mean primal/prehistoric/primeval groudon and kyogre, this is the first time (if not the second) where a pokemon shows a devolution (if giratina going back to the origin form doesn´t count).
Now Steven having a Mega charizard, interesting, considering that his power house and signature pokemon has always been aggron. I wonder if this has something to do with him traveling the kanto region in previous games. Diance mega evolution. first time an event legendary pokemon gets a mega evolution I guess and it´s one of the new ones of generation 6. Interesting clothing for the main characters, looks more tropical and shows that you´re ready for battle. Now what I want to see are the berries, pokeblock making and how pokemon contests are going to be. |
Well that leaked way earlier than I thought it would!
Anyways, Mega Swampert and Mega Septile both looks pretty cool, but I'm a Blazekin fanboy I'll probably just end up picking him. I didn't think they'd revel get them so early. The new Team Aqua design is really cool, but Team Magma just looks stupid. Brendan looks pretty cool, and I'm indifferent to May's redesign. I'm not really surprised Steven has something to do with Mega Evolution since it involves stones and such. Though I am curious how Mega Evolution will play into the story. Mega Groudon and Kyogre just confuse me. They look exactly the same except their glowing, and Serebii says something about 'ancient de-evolution.' I'm not even sure they are Megas. |
Wait, could a link to the picture be provided?
If it's true, I am going to be a tad furious as yet another undeserving Pokemon will be getting a Mega Evolution, along with that Pokemon also being a Legendary to boot. |
The mega stone for Diancie is available in the game or it will be another event ?
|
Quote:
It's in the above link. I can't save the pic for somehow |
Why Mega Charizard X? I don't like the eyes on the redesign characters. Also why does Shelly have black hair when she's suppose to have red hair?
MegaSwampert and MegaSceptile look how I imagined them. I expected Swampert to become bulkier. Yes, another mega item instead of simply the Mega Ring. The Mega Bangle is probably more powerful than the Mega Ring and will probably trigger the Mascot's Prehistoric de-evolution. I can see Zygarde getting similar treatment for his game. Also perhaps Yanmega and Mamoswine will get the special Prehistoric de-evolution. On the topic of Brandon looking tanner and May looking lighter, perhaps they'll showing off a bit of customization seeing how in XY we could pick our character's skin color. |
pretty annoyed that steven has CharX ugh i've had enough of that already and he should be using Aggron
lmfao @ Brendan's grimace tho like what. i hope the slight skin tone differences means a bigger range of customization in that regard Aqua looks badass omg as does Magma. gone through some more extreme changes than I would have liked (look at all the unnecessary decoration on Aqua's outfits and the total rehash in design of Magma's upper tier) but they still pretty cool |
Woot!!! Sceptile is now part dragon like I wanted!! Still hope he gets another Mega though. Don't know why it has Lightning Rod though. Bit odd.
I like old Swampert better, but I will get use to it. Like how he remained Water/Ground. Was not expecting Mega Diancie at all and it looks amazing. I am a bit surprised about Groundon and Kyogre getting a different type of Mega, but I love the idea a lot better. Maybe this is how they will handle legends. Would be nice to see Ancient Rayquaza. I love Branden's new look, but May is kinda... I don't know, but she still looks ok. I am glad they made them look more beach oriented with Hoenn being a tropical region. This also proves that the games are 3D environment. I love Team Aqua, but Magma is kinda weird. But they both look great. |
Quote:
I expected they'll get a different kind of Mega seeing how they couldn't just be normal, they had to be Special. I see Mew getting a Prehistoric Mega too, perhaps it used to look more like Mewtwo. Mega Diancie is beautiful. It was a curveball though. |
This one?
(Spoilered for size.) Spoiler:
And it seems EACH starter gets a Mega Evolution, not just Blaziken. |
Lightning Rod on Sceptile? Really? What on earth does that even accomplish?
If everything there is legitimate, then everyone's predictions about Kyogre and Groudon getting new formes were accurate, though no one guessed it as being something called "Ancient Devolution". |
It seems the team you get is based on your game. So I guess it will be the old Sapphire/Ruby story rehashed and not really the Emerald story.

I hope that we get to see Rayquaza in these games in it's De-evolved form at least. Since we're getting Ruby and Sapphire's story I'm assuming that Steven will be Champion. |

Was talking about Diancie. |
i didnt quiet understand. how come it's a "full remakes" if u suddenly get mega evolutions/new characters looks and NEW mascot legendery form??

Look how beautiful Team Aqua & Magma look, just wow!

Of course Mega Sceptile is the coolest of the three. Treecko and Sceptile forever!! Mega Swampert reminds me of a Water Chesnaught. So freaking bulky. Though I like Mega Swampert a bit more than Chesnaught honestly. I'm still processing Team Aqua and Magma's new designs. What happened to Archie? The wetsuit designs make since though since they are a water team. I still really like Team Magma's designs though. |
Hmmm, so the event Torchic was just an appetizer. I can restart my X version without fear of losing the Blazikenite now. All I have to do is choose Torchic. Which, for me, is a no brainer, considering the sparse options Hoenn had for Fire-types...
Seems I may have to get this game after all. But I'm not playing my 3DS much anymore, so it may be wasted. Also LOL at "undeserving Pokémon getting Mega Evolutions". You do realize not every Pokémon could get a Mega and start not sucking, right? And Diancie being a legendary based on "stones", makes sense for it to get one. |
I am going to burst.
Every single mega evolution is pure amazing. And I just realized that Mega Diancie is the first Kalos mega evolution, SO TAKE THAT PEOPLE WHO SAID THAT WE WOULDN'T GET A KALOS MEGA THIS GEN. MEGA ZYGARDE IS COMING. Too bad Mega Swampert isn't Water/Fighting, and also too bad Mega Sceptile is Grass/Dragon... Tbh if any Grass starter was to get a Dragon-type mega, it should've been Meganium or Serperior. I love this type but I'm just worried that it'll hurt Sceptile more than help him, especially considering he could've received a better ability. And the redesigns are pretty cool, but something with them, along with the Kyogre/Groudon forms and Steven's sudden interest in mega evolution, tell me that they had more in mind for a "full remake." Brendan looks skinny, lol. |
Quote:
now it will be usefull for hoen remakes as well :) |
Quote:
I think Zygarde will get the Groudon and Kyogre treatment rather than get a Mega. |
Quote:
|
Now I wonder if Latios and Latias are Prehistorics rather than megas. Though I guess it would be odd for Latios and Latias to look like planes. Maybe they are still not 100% complete.
I do want Krookorok to get a Mega. This would be a great time for it to get a Mega with Hoenn being a desert. But with it not being in the games until 5th Gen, not gonna get my hopes up too much. Also, I do not think Prehistoric is going to be just for Groudon and Kyogre, I think it is the forms for big legendaries. Mewtwo was human made, so that is why he only got a Mega and not Prehistoric. They said these new forms were a like the Mega Forms and can only change in battle. |
Hmm, I'm wondering how the storyline will play out now. The fact that the team you battle depends on your version is kinda convincing me that they will stick to the R/S storyline, but since HGSS incorporated Crystal features I wouldn't be surprised if the Emerald storyline somehow got incorporated into these games. Either way it is a clever tactic to persuade players to buy both games, having alternate storylines and teams is a good influence to get both ORAS.
Either that or we will receive Delta Emerald in 2015 |
Quote:
I posted this in the DCC thread. I don't think that Steven will actually use Mega Charizard X. It's level is 100, making me think he's simply giving us a Demonstration of Mega Evolution. |
Sorry had to edit it as i realised you guys have already seen it - im so excited!!!!
|
Sorry guys, I have to post this because it is hilarious. It is kinda off topic.
Spoiler:
|
Yes! Sceptile looks so awesome! Treeko was my first Hoenn starter. Sceptile is my favorite among the Hoenn starters final evolution. This is good news for me.
Good thing they have confirmed Groudon and Kyogre having Mega Evolutions or Ancient Devolutions, according to Serebii. That way people can stop trying to disprove it. I don't know why people were denying they would get alt forms. It was pretty obvious from the box art. |
Quote:
Anyone noticed that Mega Swampert has the color of Marshtomp? On the topic of the Latis: They may be, but perhaps Ancient devolution requires something that isn't Mega Stones. If so then that means that the Latis aren't Ancient Devolutions of the current Latis. |
I actually really like Mega Swampert, it looks so buff! ;)
|
Can't wait to mega evolve my swampert!!!
|
Quote:
I plan to get Sceptile, but Swampert (and Blaziken of course) don't have bad looking Megas. I like better the Hoenn trio compared to the Kanto trio. |
Quote:
|
SOOO Psyched for Mega Sceptile!!!
chose Treecko back in Emerald (my first Pokémon game) and am absolutely thrilled to see the way Sceptile has been reinvented through its mega form! (Grass/Dragon :3 ) Now lets just hope for a release date :) |
It's Ruby/Sapphire rehashed? Hmmmmmm.
Curious! This makes me believe we're going to end up with a 'Delta Emerald' afterall. Perhaps it'll be a sequel instead! Would anyone else be down for a sequel to the RSE series? I honestly think they should take this 'remake' thing to the next level now. |
Quote:
Yeah I think Mega Sceptile's design is awesome I bet we'll get some gameplay at e3! |
We could end up with Delta Emerald and Pokemon Z next. But It will be weird to have 6 games all in the same generation.
|
Why aren't May and Brendan wearing socks?
LOL have fun getting blisters, idiots. |
Quote:
In memory of my Sceptile from my Ruby, I am going to teach it the same moves, as well. My old Sceptile had Leaf Blade, False Swipe, Pursuit and Screech. None of the newer Gen moves. |

I'm glad that I made my mind with choosing Treecko before seeing its mega evolution. Now I want it even more! Swampert looks like it's been hitting the gym these past 11 years.
Not a fan of Steven having a mega Charizard over a mega Aggron/Metagross, but at least he's getting something. I'm kind of curious as to why though, since he usually runs steel/fossil-based Pokemon. Maybe he's just introducing mega evolutions to the player by showing off one of his discoveries? I like the changes made with the protagonists, they really seem to fit the theme of Hoenn being more of a tropical region. I'm surprised they made some big changes to Team Magma/Aqua's aesthetics. I might be the only one here who thinks this, but I don't like how they made Tabitha, who was a bad***, into some pudgy kid. Everyone else looks pretty good, mainly Team Aqua. |
Quote:
|
Man these designs are atrocious.
I hate Ken Sugimori's new art. :/ |
Quote:
I don't like how Tabitha is fat either...I would've expected his Aqua counterpart to be the fat one considering in the originals he had a beer belly. |
For all of those waiting for an announcement of Pokémon Z / Delta Emerald, how do we not know that these could be the same game, combining elements of both X/Y and OR/AS, a Pokémon Zemerald, if you will...
|
Quote:

I don't mind the new designs but they have surprised me!

Quote:
I'm just not a fan of his art at all. Especially his human designs. Look how awkward Peach looks in this. http://www.smashbros.com/en-uk/images/character/gekkouga/illust.jpg Compared to her 3D World portrait. http://www.mariowiki.com/images/9/9c/Peachicon.png |
Y'know, after this evenings CoroCoro leak I'm thinking Delta Emerald is all the more likely to surface. Sure it's a long shot, but first we had third game then a remake, next we had two sequels and no remake.. why not remakes and a sequel of the remake? It's a completely different path to take and with the ORAS maintaining the original storylines, Delta Emerald would tie them both up nicely to close off Generation VI.

Quote:
And I'm pretty sure their ancient forms have to do with the story line, and if not, this would be a pretty random time to introduce it. I just don't see this being a thing with normal pokemon. We just got mega evolution; there's no need for it. |

Quote:
He doesn't know how to work with proportions at all. Look at the Smash picture with Peach and Link above. Why do they have tall torsos? And then there's the fact May and Brendan aren't wearing socks here. Come on, Ken. |
Do you think that you will be able to customize your character?
|
Quote:
|
Quote:
Well the socks are probably small, in XY one can barely see them in the models as the socks aren't long socks. |
Quote:
I think that the Diancie stone will be distributed upon release like the Mega Stone for Blaziken. Or it'll be in game and we'll get Diancie like we got Genosect in B2W2. |
I still want the other power plant doors to be used for SOMETHING.
That reminds me. Need to buy more Fresh Water. |
Mega Sceptile is a dream come true. I mean.. lookit that thing and it's grass/dragon. But ugh though, I was planning on getting Sapphire but the Magma trainers look soooo awesome. Luckily it's just designs so no big deal but oooo.
|
I don't mind the redesigns. The Team Magma girl looks cute. <3 And Tabitha needed a makeover, he looked too similar to regular grunts in the old games.
Me preferring cold and calculating villains will choose to fight Team Magma and, thus, Omega Ruby. Team Aqua is too flashy for my taste. After these revelations I'm very hopeful that the story will be changed somewhat and more Pokémon will be available pre-E4. I mean, there will be all the ones in the Hoenn Dex, but back then some types were grossly underrepresented. It's also possible Metagross will get a Mega since it's Steven's main Pokémon. And I'm also hoping we get Mega ability pre-E4 as well, though it wouldn't hurt to have it post-E4 considering apart from the Frontier the Hoenn postgame was kinda shallow. To anyone complaining about evil team redesigns... Back in HGSS we got new Rocket Admins and no one complained. If you want strictly the same game, fire up RSE in an emulator and give this one a pass. May and Brendan follow a design trend seen since 4th gen. I don't see anything wrong with them. In fact May looks cuter than her old self. It's weird to me that people want the remakes but hate change. If things weren't changed, what would be the point of playing the game? And all the changes I'm seeing are for the better. Introduction of Megas, integration of Megas to the story through Steven. I'm actually thinking this will be the most "changed" remake GF has ever released. And this is good! Imagine if HGSS was GSC with better graphics, and only that. It would've sucked. |
Quote:
|
Ehrnamagherd.
I'm so stoked. Glad I was planning to choose Treecko! For AlphaSapphire, I'll be choosing Mudkip. The redesigns are ok to me, not really awesome. (Except for Archie, he is Captain Jack Sparrow!) |
Mega Sceptile and Mega Swampert are awesome!

I hope that they show a trailer at E3. I'll love to see Hoenn in action as simply having screenshots won't do it justice IMO.

Poor MegaSwampert is getting treated like Chestnaught :( |

The art style is so similar that I always thought it was Ken. Huh, learn something new everyday. |
I like Mega Swampert. Swampert was always my least favorite Hoenn starter, because to me it looked stupid. Blaziken is boss and Sceptile has a pleasant saurian look.
What's wrong with Mega Charizard? Surely enough they don't want to spoil the possible Mega Metagross... :P As I doubt Steven will use Mega Aggron. |

It does look like Sugimori is drawing the characters this time for ORAS, though. At least from what I can tell; some of the Aqua/Magma members are too low-quality to really make out. |
