Movie guess: Hoopa warps the ancient primal groudon and kyogre with the original mega-rayquaza to Kalos.

@ Metal Man
That's likely how it's going to be.

I hope we get an in game event, perhaps they could have it so that we get the bottle by Wi-fi which causes a ring to form above Hoenn...perhaps over Littleroot with Hoopa inside.

Unfortunately that won't happen because you get the bottle when you have Hoopa in your party.
That does seem like a really cool idea though, they should have done something like that.

I'm not too crazy about it. It's alternate form looks cool, but battle-wise it doesn't look that interesting to me. I'll probably be more interested in Volcanion and AZ's Floette if they ever come out. As far as previous-gen legendaries go, I'd really like to see Jirachi, Darkrai or Arceus as Wi-fi gifts for ORAS.

I thought a number of the event Pokemon which show up in movies (so nigh all of them the last several years) have come out as either wifi or shop events across many countries outside of Japan.

Neat it's been announced, not terribly excited about it though. I suppose I'm currently indifferent about its design.

Quite sure there's already some info on it. Can't recall for sure but I remember watching a video about its background. Search it up on YouTube, you might find something.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire January 11th, 2015 8:00 PM

Or perhaps instead of a typical wi-fi gift Hoopa appears in the player's team if one has an empty spot while entering the Pokémon center after receiving the Mystery Gift. It'll be like how Shedinja pops up when one evolves Nincada.

(I just got on my computer and opened Serebii)
Finally! Hoopa has officially been confirmed! I've been the most excited for Hoopa out of the Trio(Diancie, Hoopa, Volcanion). Hoopa is also going to be in the 2015 Pokemon movie! can't wait for that! all in all, I'm really excited for Hoopa :)
I hope Hoopa will WiFi event for Hoopa. that would be awesome.

Interestingly though Arceus and several mons from Gen IV aren't part of any regional dex...so therefore not part of any region by that logic. Though I actually think he is thinking of them as the way most mons are thought of when it comes to which region they belong to, in other words the region that was introduced in the same generation they were.

Anyways in response to the original poster, it's been done before. Deoxys was first available in FrLg not RS or Emerald despite being a 'Hoenn' mon.

It is just as ORAS says. Hoopa appeared for the first time in Kalos, and, therefore, he is a Kalos pokémon. As Hoppip appeared in Jhoto and Treecko in Hoenn, you don't say they are from Sinnoh or from Kanto. They are from their homelands, the first region they appear in. It makes, for me, no sense to launch Hoopa only in ORAS since it's first appearance was in XY. That pokémon is from the region of Kalos, not from Hoenn. I know that every pokémon can travel through every region, but it's where they first appear that matter.

If we went like that, all the starters where from all the regions. They're on the dex.

I was talking to the guy above you ORAS, I just quoted you since you answered for me in the way I thought to do. Thanks ;)

Re: the Japan getting events before everyone else thing, are there not devices you can buy where you can download exact copies of the official 'wonder cards' from a 3rd party server? Including all the 'legacy' X and Y wonder cards that are also shareable to Or/As.

Pretty sure you can get all the Korean and wider world event cards, too.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire January 12th, 2015 5:26 PM

I heard those kind of devices don't work on OrAs due to the company fearing they'll be sued. Not sure how true that is...but if it is it makes me wonder if we truly know everything inside OrAs...

Nakasu January 12th, 2015 6:39 PM

Hopefully this will be a Mystery Gift event. God knows if they learned from the Diancie Event. Hopefully this one will be released wi-fi. I'm pretty excited if this will a good Pokemon or not. Also if this Pokemon is true, i wonder about the other two that were found in Pokemon X and Y. I'm sure they will release it when the movie comes out. and hopefully it's wifi.

Dragon January 13th, 2015 1:08 PM

Hoopa's attack and special attack are looking really, really good: like, it already has 110 base attack and 150 base special attack on it's normal form which in other words is about, 350 attack and 438 special attack, but theeeen comes it's unbound form: 160 base attack and 170 base special attack, which is like, 460 attack and 482 special attack. @[email protected] wow. Then again it kinda doesn't like bug and dark attacks, soooo.. maybe that makes up for it?

Anywho,I do look forward to it! I wonder how it'll fit in though; like a sidestory for Hoopa in ORAS? Maybe one for like, a third game for X&Y? Hm.

I'm really excited about Hoopa. I have loved it since first seeing it. It's got a pretty cool design. Can't wait to snag one! Hopefully soon.

Vintasticvin January 14th, 2015 11:08 AM

Coming soon to a gamestop near you....

DyingWillFlareon January 14th, 2015 12:01 PM

To anyone still asking I'm pretty sure Archdjinn is pronounced 'ark-jin'. It was driving me crazy that no one responded. :psy copy:


I'm getting pretty pumped now that Hoopa is officially released, but like everyone else, PULEEEEEASE be a wifi event. 3XD

Pinkie-Dawn January 14th, 2015 1:51 PM

The fact that Hoopa's dex number is right after Diancie makes me want to ship those two due to their different facial expressions. I still need to know its base stats to see if it's overpowered or not.

Gogoat Rocks! January 14th, 2015 4:17 PM

New Trailer for Hoopa:

Leviathan January 14th, 2015 4:46 PM

I would get excited about this, but only after the method of distribution is announced. If it's a wi-fi event, yay, time to celebrate! If it's streetpass, the one-use code or some other method, then I'm simply going to look elsewhere whilst all the Hoopa hype calms down.

Twilight-kun January 14th, 2015 5:16 PM

*slow, underwhelming applause*

...I really don't care about Legendaries anymore, especially since Gen III when they started event pokemon

Now they just make completing the National PokéDex next to impossible

Hoopa really needs to stop leaving her rings scattered throughout Hoenn though, Pokémon keep tripping through them


Good luck to those that use her, I'll stick to my common Pokémon and treat Legendaries like the forces of nature they are and leave them alone

Her? Hoopa seems more like a dude IMO... (Especially since Hoopa Unbound has a beard.)

Honestly, I haven't seen Hoopa Unbound
So. I'll probably headcanon them into two separate entities

Besides, female vikings and dwarves all magnificent flowing beards as well

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire January 14th, 2015 9:43 PM

Well Hoopa isn't a Viking or a dwarf but a Djinn (aka Genie).

@ Twilight Kun Uh, not sure if Mew had events in Gen I but I do know that Celebi had one in Gen II (think it was Jp only though...) so Gen III wasn't the start of event legends (it wasn't even that big in Gen III with only two exclusive to events, and with ORAS' regional dex in fact has only one exclusive to an event (Jirachi as one can get Deoxys in game, and one can also trade for the other Lati) like Gen I (Mew) and Gen II's (Celebi) and their remakes' regional dexes.

Unbound Hoopa seems a bit OP...one of it's weaknesses is bug but that is barely seen in higher tiers leaving Fairy as it's main weakness. Then comes that truly exclusive signature move it has...and it's stat boost...

Wonder what Volcanion would get...perhaps a Primal to fit the three major form changes in the series.
