Ah, I guess that does make sense, since every game has something big after the E4 to do. Honestly though, if it doesn't return and the Battle Frontier does, I would still be a happy camper!

Maybe have Red, Mega Charizard X in OR and Y in AS, Blue have Mega Venusaur in OR and Mega Blastoise in AS, Lance could have a Mega Dragonite, and maybe add a Mega Volcarona and Mega Haxorus to Alder and Iris, respectively.

For my sake Gamefreak, make PWT better this time.
I can imagine a vast variety of trainers there, maybe the protagonists from the other games...nah it wouldn't be a good idea..
Red could have Mega Venusaur/Blastoise/Charizard X or Y (it's random).

The PWT was great in BW2, but I don't think it will find a place in ORAS, in my opinion it was more like a celebration of the 5 generations the pokemon franchise went through, and a conclusion of them with a new beginning on a new console with X and Y, plus I think they're going to include a revamp of emerald's battle frontier, and with it being much bigger than the battle subway in BW I don't see Game Freak putting the effort of having both the BF and the PWT in the same game.

As much as I love the PWT, to me it was always obvious it wasn't canon (save the Driftveil Tournament), which is why characters such as Bugsy appeared not having aged a day. So in that sense, I'm sure it's possible to have the PWT similar to how it was in B2W2 (aka without Bugsy being 3 years old); however, I see no real point in bringing it back, at least for these games. I loved the eternal daylights out of the PWT, but why have that when they can reintroduce the Battle Frontier? Emerald was the first to feature it, after all. Having both is a possibility, but as was already mentioned on this thread, the PWT is essentially a replacement for the Frontier, so having both might be a bit overkill. Also mentioned was the desire to have Gym Leader rematches that provide money and experience, and I feel that having one would mean sacrificing the other (and again, Emerald featured the Match Call, so I see no reason not to go with it).

Basically, if we could have our (non-canon) PWT along with the Frontier and Gym Leader rematches, I'd be happy. But if having one meant sacrificing the other, I'd much rather go for the Frontier and rematches.

While Iris appearing would break Canon (there is a high chance PWT isn't canon...wow maybe Giovanni did commit suicide in the Johto remakes...) it'll be cool to see her in the PWT. For some reason they decided not to include her with the other champions...

It's probably because you can just battle her at the Pokemon League anyway. PWT was probably meant, at least in part, to allow players to battle Gym Leaders and Champions from previous gens on what was the most recent and up to date game.

In that case they should've had normal gym battles against the Unova gym leaders with six Pokemon each...would've felt better about them leaving Iris out if that were the case.

One thing that was introduced to Generation V (Black 2 & White 2) that fans absolutely adored (especially me) was the Pokémon World Tournament (PWT).

In this tournament you were pitted against Gym Leaders and Champions from every region pre-Kalos. This allowed us to fight familiar faces and provide us ample challenge against these nostalgic foes (such as Flannery)! I absolutely loved these battles to death.

In Generation III, we were introduced to the Battle Frontier which provided us exciting and amazing battles in unique and diverse ways, but for me, I wanted more.

My question is:

What do you think the chances of us seeing Pokémon World Tournament (PWT) make a gallant return in Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby? Do you think that it'll be included in the Battle Frontier? Would you like to see it make a return?

I would like to see it return. Maybe in the Battle Dome at some point? Maybe after defeating Tucker the second time (Gold Symbol).

I'd like it better if it was its own Battle Frontier building and not part of another one.

I highly doubt it would, mainly due to the fact that it was supposed to be the "After Game" for B2W2 and the "After Game" for Emerald was the Battle Frontier. I doubt they would add both, but it would be nice if they would.

I never played Emerald, So I never got the Gen3 Battle Frontier. It will probably be awesome.

PWT will return. But not in ORAS.

If so it'll probably be in 'Z'.

Or Delta Emerald and Gamma Z ;)

I agree Hoenn isn't the place for PWT. Battle Frontier is more fitted to be in that PWT xD

I doubt they'll make DeltaEmerald into a game, and Gamma Z sounds like a generation 9 remake of Z xD

Yeah, I guess that if they were going to put anything postgame in ORAS, it would be a Battle Frontier. Although it would be awesome, maybe having the PWT too would be too much. But I think it would be great if Hoenn gym leaders / E4 participated in events like the Battle Dome, for example!

Maybe this time instead of a gym leader PWT they only have the E4 and the champions. After all Lorelei, and Agatha could use updates as they were last seen in Gen's III remakes of the Kanto games.

I want the World Tournament within the battle frontier, not replacing anything.

Actually that could be possible having PWT inside the Battle Frontier. Maybe put it in the middle of the island and arrange the island a la Sinnoh's Battle Frontier with the Hoenn facilities?

The thing is though, it literally has almost the same setup as the Battle Dome. It would either have to replace it or not be in the game at all, since I doubt they would include two redundant facilities.

They could always include it inside the Battle Dome.

Or make PWT be a different building structure? Maybe a Stadium rather than a Dome? They are technically different I guess. Or take a structure from Sinnoh's?

If GF decides to make Delta Emerald perhaps they'll save the BF until it comes out (hopefully not), and they'll have PWT for these games...

I didn't mean the structure, I meant the actual tournament format was literally the same as the Battle Dome's. It would be redundant for them to have two tournament styles of the same format in the BF, or even in the same region at all.

I agree with this idea, I believe I said somewhere that they could always include the trainers from PWT in the Battle Dome tournament itself.
