There's the space station.

That rock that plagued my childhood.

The rumors about beating the elite four hundreds of times.


Do you think ANY of this will be dealt with in the upcoming remakes?


Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

I don't know about the other things, but surely the space station will have something to do with a Deoxys event. Game Freak probably knows about this rumor, right? My cousin used to tell me that you could go to the moon and catch Deoxys if the dud said a number over 120. Never worked, though.

The rock may or may not have something to do with Jirachi -- it is just supposed to be something to do with the space station, after all. Only time will tell.

YES I hope so! I totally forgot about the space station in Mossdeep. I'd been wanting a sequel to the games that involved going up into space for some reason, and something involving Deoxys or Jirachi would be grand. Maybe Team Magma wants to ram the moon into Earth or something. :p I don't care what it is, but an expedition lead by Steven... hmm, I can see a lot of cool things happening with space/the moon.

I hope they do something with it sometime. I think maybe it'll connect to Jirachi somehow. I would love to be able to catch it in a game sometime, and not rely on Events to get it.

Deoxys would make sense in airspace, and so would Rayquaza. Given that Team Magma's story was so similar, maybe a land-based plot might actually involve some action in space? I dunno.
Actually, I can see Team Aqua trying to also use the moon to manipulate the tides of Earth.

I can see both teams doing that.
Maybe it would be Aqua's plan initially, so the tides would overrun the land, and Magma follows them to thwart and that's where the endgame begins. I'd say it would be the endgame, but Kyogre and Groudon surely wouldn't appear on the moon and wherever they are would be the final "showdown," I imagine.

Rumor repels pls.

Also, I'm kind of opposed to going to the moon. It doesn't seem Pokemon-like.

For the white rock, I definitely want something to be done with that. A Jirachi event perhaps?

Doesn't seem Pokemon-like? Going to the moon? I'd say the presence of the space station in the first place rejects that notion.

I wouldn't be surprised if we were still able to go...

I just don't see what would be on the moon. :\

That's what we're speculating about! The games had two space-themed Pokemon already and they weren't tied into the storyline whatsoever, and the space station was "close to being ready" so what better time to have some sort of plotline, whether it be post-game or not, actually included? That'd be cool, you must admit.

Clefairies and moonstones.
That too

Moon Stones would be useful. :D There's never enough Moon Stones in games.
I could also see Jirachi being caught on the moon, or even Deoxys.

LOL; I like how both the fabled "white rock" and the Space Center are both in Mossdeep City. It's like the city wants us to hate it for crushing our dreams. XD

I hope they do something with it sometime. I think maybe it'll connect to Jirachi somehow. I would love to be able to catch it in a game sometime, and not rely on Events to get it.
This; it's bad enough that the 2 Pokemon are event-only as of now, I don't have to be reminded of them every time I travel through Mossdeep City. XD

Actually, I can see Team Aqua trying to also use the moon to manipulate the tides of Earth.
Ooh! That could be a great enhancement for the storyline! Now we have a reason to fight both Team Magma and Team Aqua at the Mossdeep Space Center! LOL; I'm laughing at what Maxie planned to do there..

Rumor repels pls.

If we can have the "alternate dimension" Distortion World present via a gateway in Sinnoh, I would think that no location is really off-limits. XD Maybe going to the moon seems weird because we're always stuck on the ground in Pokemon games and never actually see space..?

That'd be cool, you must admit.

That too
The space station rocket launch thing would be interesting, although I'm wondering whether they'd maintain the function of counting how many weeks your game file has been active..? I'd dislike it if a potential "Deoxys" event to require months of real-life waiting, though; I'd probably miss the launch!

Moon Stones would be useful. :D There's never enough Moon Stones in games.
I could also see Jirachi being caught on the moon, or even Deoxys.
More Moon Stones would be useful, particularly for OmegaRuby players (since I'm guessing that AlphaSapphire players will be able to frisk Lunatone of their Moon Stones like in Sapphire). Clefairy appearing on the moon would be sensible, too.

Hmm...I hope that Deoxys would be catchable on the moon (after the player travels there via rocket!) while still maintaining the Birth Island triangle puzzle (or even building upon said puzzle..?). As for Jirachi, it would make sense to use a wish tag to interact with the white rock..I always imagined that the player would mysteriously get whisked away to Night Sky's Edge (a route that Jirachi unlocks in the PokeWalker accessory), then the player would be tasked to complete a puzzle before engaging Jirachi in battle. After the battle ends, you mysteriously end up in Mossdeep again.

I really don't think sending a ten year old into space is something the Space Center would EVER allow. But perhaps while on one of their missions a space virus just happens to get attached to the ship and makes it back to Earth. And maybe this virus just happens to mutate into a legendary Pokemon and flees to Birth Island.

Yeah, that would be interesting to see, considering the protagonist can miraculously survive for extended hours underwater. However, I don't really feel like having to fight legendary Pokémon outer space, that would be quite weird. Perhaps making a 'connection' with them outer space and then landing back down for battling is something called for...?

I can imagine Jirachi having something to do with the "White Rock" near the station...

I think we all want jirachi and deoxys to appear in game. Mossdeep city was one of the most intriguing cities (if not the most interesting) with the White rock and the space station. What could be on the moon could be some comet shards, star pieces and certain evo stones. And maybe how about a moonstation where they do some deoxys related experiment/research where the actual legendary pokemon appears from a meteor, maybe adding a couple of puzzles too. The event ítem could be something like a space ticket that allows us to board the rocket. For jirachi it could be the wish tag since it was always related to that ítem that was never created, only spoken of by the girl in mossdeep i guess, and probably the White Stone reacting to it and sending you to a place where you can actually catch it. Or it can be that you are sent in some sort of side quest requiring the White Stone and the wish tag.
But the question would be if they are going to be available in both games or if they will only be available one in each game, like deoxys in ruby and jirachi in sapphire for example. It would be good for some of the rumors created in the 3rd generation to become real.

I never really got to experience that, although I did see video of it on YouTube. It'd be very good to open up some new areas exclusive to the remakes to breathe some fresh air into Hoenn.

Certainly a very endearing thought. Travelling to space in a Pokemon game would be absolutely unheard of! I'd personally love it. A perfect area to encounter Deoxys, as well as add a unique, new area to ORAS that they haven't done before. I know I was disappointed when I discovered how little there was to do in Mossdeep's space station. :[ Maybe they'll right a wrong here with the remakes!

Or a character would bring back a Jirachi itself physically or through finding one with the white-rock. When you revive a Jirachi inside it lets say, someone new wants to steal it for themselves and basically putting Wish Maker storyline into the game. Or you have to help a Jirachi return to the moon with the help of Latios and Latias or riding MegaLatios/as.

I dont think deoxys will appear in space.
It was available through an event on Birth Island, where you had to solve a puzzle with some meteorite type thing to access him.

And if anything, the space center will play host to a Jirachi event. Or at least the white rock outside will have some relevance.
In R/S/E you could cheat to get a key item called a Wish Tag, which is what the woman standing next to the rock talks about. It makes me think they never actually activated a Jirachi Event, but had the capability to somehow.
Wish tags are also the things hanging from Jirachi's head.
