6th Gen Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Speculation Contest

[waZelda]

Who will be the protagonists?
Misty and Brock to trigger nostalgia from gen I fans and not just gen III fans.

What role will Wally play?
Removed from the game completely cause who cares about him.

What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Juan is kidnapped by team Aqua and Wallace aids you in your rescue. The eight gym is a double battle against both of them. Steven is the champion.

Will there be any other League-related changes?
Only changes to the pokemon. No elite 4 member will have two of the same pokemon.

Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
He'll be in charge of running the Battle Tents.

What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
Team Magma tries to kidnap it, but it escapes and goes on a wild rampage, so you have to stop it.

Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Kyogre will be Water/Steel and Groudon Fire/Ground. They'll still have Drizzle and Drought resceptively. Their signature moves will be new moves called Maelstrom and Seismic Wave. Maelstrom is 130 power and traps the foe like Whirlpool while Seismic Wave is 120 power, hits all targets on the battlefield (even if Groudon is on the side in a triple battle) and may paralyze.

— their roles in the games will be?
Getting kidnapped by the respective crime teams again.

— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
You can use the Red/Blue orb to make Kyogrite and Groudonite, but also combine them instead and make Rayquazite.

What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
Omega Ruby gets Mew, Absol and Eevee. Alpha Sapphire gets Jirachi, Sneasel and Reelo - a new pokemon that also have 8 evolutions - Rock, Fighting, Steel, Dragon, Bug, Poison, Flying and Ghost.

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
Yes, there will of course be the new evolutions that gen III pokemon has gained, but also pokemon that compensate for some types being under-represented in gen III, like Ghost and Ice. Also, a lot of fairy types and Dragons.

What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
All the new Mega Evolutions will be for crappy pokemon that you would otherwise never use. We get Mega-Sunkern, Mega-Azurill, Mega-Ralts and last but not least Mega-Magikarp (who is just a Magikarp that has grown to the size of a house.

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
Sunkernite is hidden in a vending machine on top of the Mega Mart and will drop out along with the first item you buy there. Azurillite is hidden on the beach of Mossdeep. Raltsite is found near a tomb stone on Mt. Pyre while Magikarpite is received from Juan after saving him from team Aqua.

New areas to be introduced?
Embassy Island where the five other regions have embassies and you can battle trainers with Pokemon from all the other region. It also holds the "Superior Six" challenge where you battle the champions from each region.

Ideas for post-game content?
Embassy Island, Superior Six challenge and the "Rise to Glory Challenge," which works as follows:

• You start off with a team consisting of the six pokemon with the lowest base stats (Sunkern, Azurill, Kricketot, Caterpie, Weedle and Wurmple). No Mega-Stones are allowed.
• Each round you have to battle a team with better pokemon (judged by their base stats) and after beating that team you get to use it yourself.
• You select what team to battle next, so if you are feeling bold you can battle a team with way better stats. The fewer battles it take to get to the top, the better the prize you'll receive.
• The final battle is against a team consisting of Arceus, Kyorem, Mewtwo, Rayquaza, Giratina and Zygarde.

[Kenmaster22]

Who will be the protagonists?
Brendan and May with customization like in X and Y.
What role will Wally play?
He's still a rival except that he might appear more frequently throughout the game and have mega evolution for gardevoir.
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Wallace will be 8th gym leader, Steven will still be the champion, Juan might have another role in the game in some sort of battle zone like the battle tower, or have an role in the story (though not a big role.)
Will there be any other League-related changes?
The elite four will have some pokemon from Gen IV-V with some having the new type and Steven will have mega evolution for metagross.
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
Same role as he did back then in Emerald except for a new battle zone or frontier if it returns.
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
Rayquaza will still have a role when Groudon and Kyogre are fighting, except that you still can't catch him and battle/catch Groudon/Kyogre depending on which version you have and earn the megastone. Rayquaza will still appear after the game (obviously) and with a new mega evolution being different on each version like with mewtwo and charizald.
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?Groudon is Fire/Ground and Kyogre is Water/Ice with the same ability they had and a new signature move.
— their roles in the games will be?The same role they had except that you earn a mega stone for each of them which could be used in the battle against rayquaza and Mega Groudon/Kyogre depending on which version you have.
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
I doubt it will be called the Red/Blue orb. More likely Ruby/Sapphire orb or Omega/Alpha orb.
What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
Ruby:Groudon, Latios (with mega evolution), pokemons that were always exclusive in ruby from gen 3 and a few exclusive pokemon in ruby from Gen IV-VI and Rayquaza new (possibly) mega evolution form. Sapphire:Kyogre, Latias (with mega evolution), pokemons that were exclusive to sapphire with some from Gen IV-VI and Rayquaza new mega evolution form.
Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
After you defeat the elite four and receive the national dex.
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
Included:A lot from each Gen only missing a few of them and having each on different version. Excluded:Starters won't be in the wild (obviously) and some legendary won't be in the game.
What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza (and having a different form in each version), Latios, Latias, Swampert, Sceptile and some Gen 3 Pokemon.
Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
Groudon/Kyogre and Rayquaza stones will be either received Steven or found in the storyline as they might have a big role in the game. Latios and Latias stone will be given by Steven or Juan somewhere else after you beat the game or catch them (and you can buy the separate stone of latias/latios in the game depending what version you have and in case you trade for one.) The starter stone will be received from Prof. Birch when you choose your starter or later in the game (still received from Birch.)
New areas to be introduced?
Yes, somewhere between the game or after you beat the elite four.
Ideas for post-game content?
New island where you discover the remaining from team aqua/magma (the team that doesn't have a mayor role in ruby/sapphire) trying to awaken the pokemon from the separate version and later awaken it and catch/control the pokemon. Team Aqua/Magma leader has a mega stone for Kyogre/Groudon and you battle him head on with your Mega Groudon/Kyogre (except that if you have ruby then it's HIGHLY recommended to have Rayquaza or other pokemons with advantage against Mega Kyogre)
Battle Frontier returns
Gym leader rematches
Battle May/Brendan each day or a specific day each week and battle their new fully evolved pokemon with mega evolution.

 

[bajram1892]

Who will be the protagonists?
May and Branden, with the ability to customize them slightly. Not as much as XY in the customization department, but new clothes and outfits will be allowed.

What role will Wally play?
Wally will be your more serious rival as opposed to Branden/May who is your more friendly Rival. Wally will be the rival who you will challenge a lot more throughout the game as opposed to RSE where he stopped randomly in the game. You will get to face him right before facing the Elite 4, and then re matchable in his hometown post-game.

What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
The first time you face the pokemon league championship Steven will be champion. His role throughout the game will be similar to Ruby/Sapphire where you see him throughout the game. In this game he will teach you about the Mega Stones also and give you a beldum with a Metagrossite. After you defeat the Pokemon league the first time he will no longer be champion and will be a master trainer with all of his pokemon in the 80s (Like Red in HG/SS) With his own Mega Metagross as his main best pokemon.
Wallace will be the 8th gym leader of the game like in Ruby/Sapphire, and after you defeat the Pokemon league the first time, he will become the new champion of the game with a boosted up team.
Juan will be the new 8th Gym leader after you defeated the pokemon league the first time. Whenever you rematch the Gym Leaders he will replace Wallace.
Will there be any other League-related changes?
The Elite 4 the first time you face them will have the same exact pokemon as they did in RSE. In the rematch they will have pokemon from all generations to better balance out their teams, and also each have 1 Mega Evolution. They will make the Elite 4 in a choose who you want to face first basis just like in Gen 5 and 6.
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
Scott will return as the person who is looking to recruit a young hotshot trainer. You will see him throughout the game giving you advice and tips. He eventually will give you the ticket for the Battle Frontier.
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
Rayquaza will have the same story line as in Ruby/Sapphire. Whenever you get the Jade Orb, you will be able to release Rayquaza. You can get a Mega Stone the Rayquazaite
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
They will get Mega Evolutions, named the same way as other mega stones Kyogreite and Groudonite. Their respective orbs will be necessary to release them. Their Types will stay the same. Kyogre's new move will be called Tidal Wave, 130 Power 95 Accuracy, hits all other pokemon on the field and may cause flinch. Groudons new signature move will be Volcanic Storm, 130 Power 95 Accuracy, hits all other pokemon on the field and may cause burn.
— their roles in the games will be?
Exactly the same as Ruby/Sapphire, just you will see them in their mega evolutions when they are battling each other.
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
Orbs will release them from where they stay.
What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
Gen 3 Exclusives will be the the same as Ruby/Sapphire. This game will feature heavily on post game wild gen 2 and 4 pokemon with some gen 5 using their exclusives as the exclusives for these 2 games.
Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
As answer above states, Yes. Mostly Post Game.
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?

All Gen 3 Legendaries will be available through regular game except for Deoxys and Jirachi which will get an event ticket to catch them. Deoxys being in Birth Island and Jirachi will have a new area opened up at Meteor Falls.
Ho-Oh and Lugia will be available at a new beefed up version of Navel Rock. Event only. Palkia, Dialga and Giratina will be available. New Caves will open up Near Route 123, 105 and 128. Regigas will get his own Braille puzzle just like the Regitrio, which you need the other 3 Regis in order to find him.
The Kami Trio will be available.. Thundurus and Tornadus will be version exclusives Roaming around and you will need the both of them to open up a forest where Landorous will be available to be caught.

What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
Gallade, Sceptile, Swampert, Shiftry, Ludicolo, Minun, Plusle, Metagross, Salemance. Deoxys. Latios/Latias, Milotic, Flygon, Sharpedo, Camerupt

The other 2 Stones will be available if you find them in Meteor Falls. Salemancite will be available around Battle Frontier. Ludicolite will be available Dewford Town post game. Shiftryite will be available in Victory Road. Deoxysite will be available at Birth Island after you catch it. Lati@site depending on version exclusives will have one drop as an item once you catch the roaming legendary of your game. The other one will need the Eon ticket to catch it at Southern Island and after you catch it will have the item replace where the pokemon sprite was.
New areas to be introduced?
Several new areas to the battle factory will be introduced with Inverse Battle, Triple Battle, and Rotation Battle. Everything for Legendaries was stated above. Check below for the other areas.
Ideas for post-game content?

When you rematch the Twins Lily and Tate (Gym Leaders), they will have a third young brother/sister who will now face you in triple battles.
They will somewhat tease who the pokemon is for the Strange Souvenir for an eventual Gen 7 release.
In the Forest that you will be able to catch a Landorus will have another area where you bring the Celebi that you were given in Pokebank, and be able to transfer it over to activate an event.
After you complete the Hoenn Dex, Excluding Jirachi and Deoxys you will be given a 2nd Gen Starter with a Mega Stone and each with the special move Blast Burn, Hydro Cannon and Frenzy Plant.

 

[Terff]

Who will be the protagonists?
I think Betty White and Donald Trump
What role will Wally play?
The god of minor asthma.
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Juan after his defeat in Emerald will become a renowned taco salesman, but will always long for his days as a gym leader. His tacos are so popular that he had a city built around his vendor known as Taco City.
Wallace found out about Siebold's unoriginal clothing and travelled to Kalos to defeat him and prove that he is the better dressed trainer.
Stephen in an attempt to learn more about rocks accidentally fell and hit his head in a cave thus losing all memory, he was also robbed of all his pokemon. In an attempt to regain his memory he became a professional jewel thief and ends up stealing the mega evolution stones for Kyogre/Groudon (depending on version) and gaining full control over them. He then proceeds to end all mankind.
Will there be any other League-related changes?
Sidney will have made a invention to make clones of himself due to his incredible awesomeness, he thus overthrows the pokemon league and places himself as the elite four and the champion.
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
Scott's battle frontier will have taken a turn for the worst thus causing him to have to sell it to be able to pay off his debts, he now lives with his mom in the Johto region and has become a fat potato who does nothing but play pokemon all day.
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
The glorified worm will get a mega evolution in an attempt to halt Steven's taking over the world but still will not be able to do crap until you catch it and add it to your team of Spinda.
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Groudon Fire/Ground (like it always should've been)
Ability: Sol - 50% chance that 50% of damage dealt will be restored as health.
Signature moves: Rocky Road: [Ground] All non-flying types/levitate/balloon will take 5% health every turn.

Kyogre Ice/Water
Ability: Luna - 50% chance to half the enemy's defense/sp.defense when using an attack.
Signature moves: Flapper Slap: [Water] 255 power 20% accuracy hits 2 times.

— their roles in the games will be?
The servants of overlord Steven.
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
They will be just regular mega stones with colors reflecting Kyogre/Groudon so Red/Blue orbs could fit that description
What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
All the pokemon catchable are Spinda until you beat Steven, once you beat Steven in Ruby you will be able to catch Lvl 100 metapods with only harden on route 2, and in Sapphire you will be able to catch lvl 100 luvdiscs with only splash while fishing with a good rod in the Dewford town
Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
Only Spinda
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
-Spinda (Spindadadadite Ruby + Spindadadadite Sapphire)
Gains the ability: dry skin (Ruby) or swift swim (Sapphire)
Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?

Kyogre: In Sapphire you get it from Steven, in ruby you get it in the 10th taco purchased from Juan which can only be purchased after passing by x people via street where x=The number of spinda that were fled from or killed in the wild. Each taco costs 1000000 pokedollars or one bike from Kanto.

Groudon: In Ruby you get it from Steven, In Sapphire you have to soft reset your DS until the space station has a shiny spinda in front of it (the chances of which are 1/2^20), it only knows self destruct and holds the stone, if it dies you can't catch it or get the stone, if you reset the game you have to continue soft resetting until it shows up again.

Rayquaza: Obtained if Rayquaza is caught with no health lost.

Spinda: Obtained after defeating The Great Arceus (If you catch arceus you forfeit the stone)
New areas to be introduced?
Taco City, blocked by guards until you get in the hall of fame 100 times. No enterable buildings but in the center of the city there is Juan's taco stand, once you have passed by x (where x= the number of Spindas that were fled from or killed in the wild) people you can fight Juan who has 6 level 100 Kyogres. You must beat him to buy a taco, you must buy 10 tacos to get Kyogre's megastone.
Arceus' temple, arceus has evolved into Magikarp who refers to itself as "The Great Arceus", its level 500 with perfect IVs and EVs, if it is defeated in battle you get Spinda's mega stone, it can be caught but using anything but a heal ball will result in it eating it and getting +6 boost in all stats.
Ideas for post-game content?
Juan's taco challenge (see above)
The Grand Arceus (see above)

 

[Xander Olivieri]

Who will be the protagonists?
May and Brendan
What role will Wally play?
Side rival in place of May/Brendan
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Would be interesting to have Wallace and Juan as alternating Gym Leaders based on version, if not Wallace current Gym leader, Juan mayor or something of Sootopolis and ex Gym Leader.. Steven is Champion.
Will there be any other League-related changes?
A few gym redesigns, but no.
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
Only if Battle Frontier reappears. Otherwise no.
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
Post game capture
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Stays the same
— their roles in the games will be?
Wouldn't have a role as to be a Mega it has to be trainer owned. So unless they Kyurem it and allow the bad guys to capture them, which is doubtful, no role as far as Megas are concerned.
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
It would be something else.
What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?

Alpha Sapphire
Lotad, Lombre, Ludicolo, Sableye, Seviper, Lunatone, Kyogre

Omega Ruby
Seedot, Nuzleaf, Shiftry, Mawile, Zangoose, Solrock, Groudon

Only as Post game catches
— If Pokemon will be included/excluded?so, what
leaving out
What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
none
Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
No new stones.
New areas to be introduced?
A few more sea routes. Maybe some add ons to areas with more land but not really touched. Like around Fortree.
Ideas for post-game content?
Battle Tower replacement, friend Safari zone area, battle institute.

 

[3dd13]

Who will be the protagonists?
Being this is a remake, Brendon and May. It is highly plausible that characters will be customizable as well as the ability to decide your skin tone at the beginning.
What role will Wally play?
Wally was a rival in both R/S and E. He will continue to fulfill this role in the remakes, possibly even helping the player out more along the way.
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Juan was introduced simply as a gym leader filler for emerald. It is unlikely he will return as such. Being these are remakes of R?S, Steven will more than likely fill in his original role as yet another trainer, with wallace being the champion you must face.
Will there be any other League-related changes?
If Gamefreak continues their history of only minor changes to remakes, the chances are the leauge will only be a modernized version of the original format. Possible changes that we could see are personalized rooms such as seen from d/p/plt on, and it is even more plausable that the battle in your order you choose system will return if they go this route.
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
If we are following the track record of gamefreak, certain emerald elements will appear. this could be conclusive to suggest he will return more than likely, following his original role.
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
This appears to be a common question and simply put, these are RS remakes. chances are, rayquaza will remain on his usual tower much as zygarde was never a main part of the x/y storyline.
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Groudon - Ground fire, posibly still drought, fissure
Kyogre - water ice, posibly still drizzle, sheer cold
— their roles in the games will be?
Unlikely their mega evolutions will occour in ORAS. For the record, the names mega groudon, mega kyogre and mega rayquaza were trademarked. still gathering more information to post this. but despite the trademarking, the games x/y and the x/y anime has both mentioned that mega evolutions only occour in kalos, possibly hinting that it was specificaly a generation 6 thing. They may impliment a way to use mega evolutions in ORAS for online play, but even that is unlikely considering that you cannot load items in pokebank.
From the note of the boxart, it is likely that new forms would be introduced instead. For now i dub these omega groudon and alpha kyogre.
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
Being the red and blue orbs played a key part in the original storyline, but served little purpose afterwards, it is plausable that they will more than likely be a power boosting item if anything more than a way to change forms.. Once again, due to in game text of X/Y and the anime, Megas only occour in the kalos region.
What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
besides groudon for omega ruby, and kyogre for alpha sapphire, it will likely be divided in similar fashon to ruby and sapphire. I would expect the version exclusives to bleed further being diamond, heart gold, black, white 2, and x version exclusives for omega ruby, and their counterparts for alpha sapphire.
Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
Probably not in the very begining exceptions being evolutions from later generations being avaliable before the national dex
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
currently mega groudon, kyogre, rayquaza, sceptile and possibly swampert have been trademarked currently. still gathering information to confirm this publicly. Once again, these are unlikely to appear in ORAS.
Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
Will note again that megas are unlikely to happen in these games.
New areas to be introduced?
we will likely see friend safari return. it may even be revamped. new features and modes introduced in x/y will also likely make an appearance.
Ideas for post-game content?
possibly a combination of features from the x/y post game, along with features in the R/S/E post game.

 

[MrNewAccount]

Who will be the protagonists?
1) Brendan and May will be the protagonists. Both protagonists will be customizable to a greater extent than Pokemon X and Y allowed (i.e. more outfits and hairstyles).
2) And May's appearance will be updated to look more modern like Kris's design got updated in HGSS. Therefore, everyone will, for some reason, say that girl is not May even though all she did was dye her hair and get some new clothes.

What role will Wally play?
1) Wally's early role will practically be unchanged from the original games. However, later on in the game, he will become much more competent than he was in the originals. In fact, the concept of Mega-Evolution will be introduced in ORAS through Wally's Gardevoir, I think.

What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Juan will be the eighth gym leader. Wallace will be league champion. Steven will play a more important role in the Devon Corporation. Steven and the Devon Corporation will probably be the one's to introduce Mega-Evolution to May, Brendan, and Wally.

Will there be any other League-related changes?
The Elite Four will get an updated team which includes Gen4, 5, and 6 Pokemon.

Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
Same as he did in Pokemon Emerald.

What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
Same as Emerald's but he'll get a Mega Evolution.

Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?

Groudon - Fire/Ground @ Severe Drought (Sunshine that will last the rest of the match. Normal weather moves cannot end the Drought. Only Severe Rain can end the Drought, but afterwards there will be no weather effect.)
Signature Move: Spiral Flare - Fire - 120 damage (Calls a tornado of fire to engulf the foe, evaporating all water in the area. Super effective against water types.)

Kyogre - Water/Flying @ Severe Rain (Rain that will last the rest of the match. Normal weather moves cannot end the Rain. Only Severe Drought can end the Rain, but afterwards there will be no weather effect.)
Signature Move: Tidal Wave - Water - 120 damage (Calls a tidal wave of water to engulf the foe, soaking everything in its path. Fire type moves are less effective for 3 turns.)

— their roles in the games will be?
Exactly the same as the previous games except for what I'll cover next.

— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
In the original games, TA and TM goes after the Red and Blue Orbs to control the legendaries however they grab the wrong orb. Maxie gets the Blue Orb for Groudon and Archie grabs the Red Orb for Kyogre. However, the new box art indicates that Red is for Groudon and Blue is for Kyogre.

When Kyogre and Groudon were first raising the land and ocean, they were in their Mega forms; their original forms. However, their was a conflict between the two causing them to battle each other, threatening the existence of the planet. Therefore, Mega Rayquaza broke off their power source (their Orbs) to stop the destruction of the planet, but the retaliation by Groudon and Kyogre broke off its own power source (the Green Orb). The three changed into their forms we recognize now. Their power weakened the escaped into the atmosphere, deep ocean, and underground.

Now, for some reason, in the original games despite the arrival of Groudon and Kyogre and the accompanying storms and droughts, there was no changes in the map. For Pokemon that raised and sunk continents, changing the landscape of Hoenn should be child's play. However, their weakened forms don't have the power to do this. TA and TM knew this, which is why they went to grab the orbs from Mt. Pyre, but they messed up in their bickering and grabbed the wrong orbs.

"There's something wrong... The Red/Blue Orb is supposed to awaken and control Kyogre/Groudon... But... Why? Why did Kyogre/Groudon disappear? Why?!"-Archie/Maxie

The most important part of this is where they say "awaken". This shows that Archie and Maxie knew this, but screwed up.

In the new games, the plot will be similar, but Archie/Maxie take the correct orb and Mega-Evolve the legendaries into form. This will cause the situation to quickly worsen and unlock version exclusive areas. (Land in OR and Water in AS)

I'll also be honest and say this narrative came from a Reddit post. I would post the link, but I cannot apparently due to a lack of posts. So, you guys who know how to use Reddit will know what to do with this.

/r/pokemonconspiracies/comments/25sjd9/the_kyogregroudon_forms_on_the_oras_boxes_are_the/

What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
Same as the originals. However, the later generation Pokemon will be dependent on which version. In AR, you will get more land based Pokemon and in OS, you will get a lot more water Pokemon.

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
After Kalos, they'll have to. Otherwise, the region will feel very empty. Going from around 450 Pokemon in the wild to around 200 will be quite the shock.

— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
Like Kalos did, pretty much any non-Legendary Pokemon will find their way in somewhere.

What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
The obvious ones would be the other starters so Blaziken wouldn't be the obvious choice. (On a side note, I really dislike Blaziken. Mostly because I hold it responsible for the Fire/Fighting thing we had going until Pokemon X/Y)
I would quite like a Mega Ludicolo. Game Freak will get bonus points if they add Mirror B.'s music for Mega Ludicolo.

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
Of course. Finding them is half the fun!

New areas to be introduced?
Many more islands will be added to break up the monotony of endless surfing. I don't care about nostalgia. You guys have to admit the constant surfing gets really old, really quick.

Ideas for post-game content?
The game will have a really short post-game, mostly involving the Battle Frontier.

 

[Satsjoe]

Who will be the protagonists?
Brendan and May wil still be the protagonists, but you will be able to customize your character like in X and Y


What role will Wally play?
Wally will still have the same role, but will appear more often and has more battles with the player. He might be involved in fighting Team Aqua/Team Magma.

What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Steven and Wallace will have similar roles as they had in Ruby and Sapphire, with Steven as Champion adn Wallace as Gym Leader. Juan will appear as a strong trainer and/or coördinator.


Will there be any other League-related changes?
You can battle the Elite Four in any order you wish, also there will be quite a lot of team changes. When you rebattle the Elite Four they will actually have higher level Pokemon and some other Pokemon as well.


Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
Scott will return with the same role as in Emerald.


What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
Rayquaza will have a similar role as in Emerald. Rayquaza can be caught post-game, but will have a Mega Evolution.


Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Mega Groudon wil be a Ground/Fire type, while Mega Kyorge will be either Water/Dragon or stay a pure Water-type. Their ablitities will stay the same. Groudon's signature move will be a new strong Ground-type move, while Kyogre's move will be a new strong Water-type move.
— their roles in the games will be?
In Omega Ruby you'll have to stop Team Magma, while in Alpha Sapphire you must stop Team Aqua, like in ruby and sapphire. In both versions however, Groudon and Kyogre will still battle. So in OR you'll experience Team Magma's part in creating this crisis, while in AS you'll experience Team Aqua's part in creating this crisis. After the main story line Groudon can be caught in OR and Kyogre in AS.
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
The Red and Blue orbs won't be Megastones, but they can be used to locate their Megastones, which are hidden somewhere in Hoenn.


What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
Same as in Ruby and Sapphire, but some Pokemon from Gen IV onwards will also be version exclusive.


Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
Yes, but only in (new) areas, which are accesable after defeating the Elite Four.
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?


Many non-legendary Pokemon.


What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
Mainly Hoenn Pokemon wil get new Mega Evolution, e.g.:
- Mega Sceptile
- Mega Swampert
- Mega Shiftry
- Mega Crawdaunt
- Mega Camerupt
- Mega Hariyama
- Mega Sharpedo
- Mega Armaldo
- Mega Cradily
- Mega Groudon
- Mega Kyogre
- Mega Rayquaza

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
Lots of stones will be hidden in places, which aren't accesable till beating the E4. Maybe some can be bought with Battle Points.


New areas to be introduced?
New underwater routes will be introduced, new caves and new islands.


Ideas for post-game content?
Depending on which game you play, some leftover Team Magma/Team Aqua Grunts under the lead of an admin will look for Groudon's/Kyogre's megastone using the Red/Blue Orb and you have to stop them. This quest will take place in a group of several islands. After completing this quest you'll be able to catch Groudon/Kyogre and be able to Mega evolve them. Also there will be more features in the Battle Frontier.

 

[solo369]

Who will be the protagonists?
1). Brendan and May, but we will be able to customize them. We will have more options than in Pokemon X and Y, and we can make them look like other protagonists throughout the games.

What Role will Wally play?
Wally will be your rival, just like in the originals, but he will a mega gallade, because he catches a male ralts.

What roles will Juan, Wallace and Steven Play?
Steven introduces you to mega stones, and he is the champion. Wallace is eight gym leader, and Juan is nowhere to be found.

Will there be any other League-Related Changes?
E4 pokemon updated to include gens 4,5 and 6

Will Scott make A return?
Just the same as he did in emerald

5.Rayquaza will be the same as RSE before but will have a new forme as groudon and kyogre do

6.Groudon Fire/Ground- Drought, and Mega-Earthquake
Kyogre Water/Dragon- Drizzle, and Mega-Ice Beam

7. Same as Last Game

8. TA and TM will get the right orbs this time and they will be the mega stones.

9.Same as the originals. However, the later generation Pokemon will be dependent on which version. In AR, you will get more land based Pokemon and in OS, you will get a lot more water Pokemon.

10.After Kalos, they'll have to. Otherwise, the region will feel very empty.

11.Like Kalos did, pretty much any non-Legendary Pokemon will find their way in somewhere.

12.The obvious ones would be the other starters. and ludicolo and Exploud and Swellow and Hariyama and Shiftry

 

[korter123]

Who will be the protagonists?- My guess is the son/daughter of may or brendan or may and brendan if these are remakes
What role will Wally play?- Most likely and Leader, E4 or perhaps the champiom
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill? I think if they might all the play the same roles and there is the chance that there not even in the game at all or they could play similar roles to the orignals
Will there be any other League-related changes? -There might be new leaders or the old ones
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as? well since where talking about ruby and saphire remakes and he was pressent in emerald he most likely wont be in the story
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?-most likely a post game legendary
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
— their roles in the games will be?-
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?- Im asuming this game is gona take place in the future after the evens of ruby sapphire and emerald and team magma and aqua are trying there old ways or a new team and they are trying to reawaken them once again with new motive for the legendaries and i think this team stole the red/blue or and figured out how to turn them into mega stones and being called the alpha orb/omega orb so they can mega evolve the legendaries to unleash there new found powers and i think these two will get stat boosts when they mega evolve and they most likely will stick with there signiture abilties and moves. the version exlcusive pokemon are most likley gona be the same
Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded? Of course hopelfully the ones we didnt get in x and why
What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?- well hopefull the other 2 starters salemence and metagross and other pokemon tht could gain from these mega evos tht dont have good stats or move pooles
Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden? On a mountian
New areas to be introduced? Hopefully the region the hiker from x and y is talking about as a secondary region or the mian region and a new and improved battle frontier like in platinum and heartgold and soulsilvert
Ideas for post-game content? another region to explore
also im hoping for pokemon being able to fallow u again and more 3d expierences

 

[whuuut12]

Who will be the protagonists?

Well obviously it'll be Brendan and May. They will most likely be customizable like Xavier and Yvonne.

What role will Wally play?

Wally will most likely still be a side rival, but with much, much stronger Pokemon. He might have a bigger role in the story with many more appearances. He had a Gardevoir and it has a ME(Mega Evolution) now so he might have something to do with the Mega Stones.

What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?

Juan probably won't even exist in this game, seeing as it is a Ruby and Sapphire remake and not an Emerald remake. Wallace will probably still be the 8th Gym Leader like he was in R/S. Steven will probably play a HUGE role in OR/AS. Seeing as he studies STONES, his last name is STONE, and his father happens to be Mr. Stone. These guys will probably play the biggest roles in the game's plot, even moreso if Kyogre and Groudon have Mega Evolutions.

Will there be any other League-related changes?

Yeah, definitely. First and foremost, THE ELITE 4 IN X AND Y WERE AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS IN ANY POKEMON GAME SO FAR, so there is a minuscule chance their levels won't increase at all. There will be a substantial increase in their levels. With the addition of hundreds of new pokemon from Gens IV, V, and VI, they'll have very new pokemon. The Gym leaders are included as well! Maybe they'll provide an even bigger challenge!

Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?

I doubt it. Like I stated before, ORAS are remakes of R/S, not Emerald. But then again, HG/SS added some events from Crystal, so he might appear in ORAS and let the player in the Battle Frontier.

What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?

Rayquaza? ....Hm.. Well it didn't necessarily have a role at all in R/S because Kyogre/Groudon weren't battling... but I think both Team Magma and Team Aqua will awaken both legendaries and Rayquaza will be needed to stop them from destroying Hoenn.

Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
— their roles in the games will be?
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?

Type/Abilities/Sig. Moves - I couldn't see them acquiring any new abilities because their abilities Drought and Drizzle play a signifigant role in the story, but there just might be a new typing added to them (heaven forbid it be Dragon, we have enough) Kyogre could gain the Steel-type and Groudon could become the Fire type. I'm not sure. Maybe they won't get new types haha. Their signature moves might be something new and exclusive to them. Typhlosion can learn Eruption and Wailord can learn Water Spout. They should get totally new moves that only they can use (like Reshiram, Zekrom, Ho-oh, Lugia, Xerneas, Yveltal, Palkia, Dialga)

Roles- Well, in RS they were awakened by the teams and had to be captured/defeated in Sootopolis City's cave. There wasn't a big role for them, they were just there. I believe that they will play the same role they played in Emerald, where they were battling in the middle of Sootopolis City and Rayq. had to stop them. But I also believe you can catch them before beating the Pokemon League.

Megastones- Well, the orbs were used to awaken them only. I think there will be a different stone you recieve from Steven or Mr. Stone. Groudonite/Kyogrite will probably be something you get AFTER beating the E4.

What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?

Well of course the usual VE pokemon from RS, plus some new ones. Like, maybe the VE pokemon for Black/LG/Diamond/SS/X will be in AS and the VE pokemon for White/FR/Pearl/HG/Y will be in OR respectively.

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild? Yes, most definitely!
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded? Well, I don't think ALL the pokemon will exist in ORAS, but maybe a few that weren't catchable in X/Y such as Bouffalant, Frillish/Jellicent, Kricketot/Kricketune, Tynamo/Eelektrik/Eelektross, etc.
What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced? Since Steven and his father might have something signifigant to do with MEs, I think there will be an evem larger number of Mega Evolved Pokemon. My guess will be: Slaking, Milotic, The starters of every region (it's not fair that Blaziken gets one only), Latios/as, Breloom, Camerupt, Flygon, Seviper, Zangoose, Kecleon, Salamence, Kyogre/Groudon(duh), Rapidash, Donphan, Sableye, Wobuffett... the list goes on and on lol

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?

Well there will be some underwater, which makes dive a little more useful, people might give a few to the player, maybe there might be a daily/weekly event where a person (namely Mr. Stone) gives out a few Mega Stones. Using Rock Smash on rocks could give the player some Mega Stones, and maybe in caves there could be certain areas that have Mega Stones hidden.
New areas to be introduced?

Umm... wow I don't think so. There might be new events that happen, maybe new people, and MEs, but I don't believe there will be any new areas. Maybe the existing areas could be expanded with new things to explore. Since it will be on the 3DS I think ORAS will be getting more access to new areas and new features.
Ideas for post-game content?

Well, the usual Latios/Latias event will occur. Maybe Steven and Mr. Stone will call you on the PokeNav and will discover new Mega Stones and you can start recieving new ones every time they call you over (they may find the same stone more than once. It's not new every call). The Battle Frontier will exist, maybe even something similar to PWT!

 

[Salamence™]

Will there be more mega evolutions?
Mega evolutions to pokemons Like salamence flygon etc.

Will there be Mystery gifts/events

I realy loved when you Got some kind of item to get rare legendaries Like mew.

Will there become more evolutions (Not megaevolution)

Like in pokemon diamond and Pearl there also came some evolutions to older pokemons from gen 3 gen 2 and gen 1. Will there be evolutions to pokemons Like sabeleye absol etc.

 

[DutchyFly69]

Who will be the protagonists?The Kalos protagonists who fly to a "new" region
What role will Wally play? Giving information about how to catch pokemon and how to use your online features
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill? Steven will be the champion, Wallace will be the 8th gym leader and I think they will try to incorperate Juan with the Pokemon Contests
Will there be any other League-related changes?They will try to include fairy type pokemon with some gym leaders/Elite Four members
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as? As a scout for the battle frontier, but the battle frontier is an online competition sort of thing like battle spot
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be? To be honest I don't really see him doing anything except for being there in the after game
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think

Mega Kyogre: Type: Water/Fairy
Ability: Drizzle

Ability: Drought
Signature Move: Magma Rush (a Fire-type OHKO move)

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild? Not a whole lot, but a certain amount

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden? In places where these pokemon can be found and sold at a stone saler

[DarkBlazeX]

Who will be the protagonists?
I am almost positive that it will be Brendon and May, but you can customize them like X & Y.
What role will Wally play?
He will first teach you how to catch a pokemon, then he will be your second rival, along with showing you how to use new features in the remakes, such as pokemon amie, etc. He will battle you with his gardevoir which will mega evolve.
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fit?
Juan: He will not play any major parts in the game, except for maybe appearing once or twice for a battle or teaching you something, or just mentioned. Wallace: He will be the 8th gym leader. Steven: Since it is a Ruby/Sapphire remake, he will be the champion.
Will there be any other League-related changes?
if they had any pokemon in the original Ruby and Sapphire that was recently changed to a fairy type, they will change it to be fairy in the remake, as well as maybe change it so that steven has a pokemon that will mega evolve.
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
He will do the same or very close to what he did in emerald.
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
He will calm kyogre and groudon (I believe they will fight, even if it isn't an emerald remake.)assume Kyogre and Groudon recieve Mega Evolutions. What do you think
-their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Kyogre: Type: water/dark
Ability: Drizzle
signature move: Distortion Wave, A strong wave that can KO an opponent.
Groudon: Type: ground/fairy
Ability: Drought
Signature move: soul quake, A strong quake hits your opponents with a chance of KO.
-their roles in the games will be?
same as in ruby/sapphire but both events will be connected somehow. Similiar as in emerald, but only one team (aqua, magma) will be in the game.
-of their megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? or will they be something else?
Kyogre and groudon will be obtainable in both remakes, but only the one that is the mascot of the game you are playing (Alpha sapphire-Kyogre, Omega ruby-Groudon), will hold their correct Mega stone after catching it.
What will the version Exclusive Pokemon be?
Same exclusives as in Ruby & Sapphire.
Will Generation IV-VI pokemon be available in the wild?
Yes but not until after defeating the elite four, a new area will be opened, or you could be taken there by a boat, or special move. However, pokemon from third generation that got new evolutions in gen IV and higher will still be able to evolve without completing the game.
If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
They may most likely exclude the least preferred Pokemon.
What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
Mega Swampert, Mega Sceptile, (I found it wierd they only released a mega Blaziken then announced the remakes a few months later,) mega Metagross (The champion NEEDS a mega evolution Pokemon, and since this is Steven's favorite Pokemon, this one should be it.) I didn't mention Latios and Latias because they already have a Mega evolution, they just haven't been released. Which makes me wonder if the only reason why they're in X & Y's code is because you will be able to trade the Mega stone for them to that game. And possibly Mega Kyogre, Groudon, and Rayquaza.There is a small chance as well that the three Johto starters may have one, since you can pick one of the three after completing the pokedex in Ruby or Sapphire.
Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
For Mega Swampert, Sceptile, and Blaziken, Depending on which starter you received, Prof. Birch will give the Mega stone to you after defeating the elite four. Steven will give you the mega stone for Metagross. Latios/Latias will be holding it after being captured, or there will be an event where you can go to an island to capture the opposite one that will be either holding it after being captured or drop it after the battle. Kyogre/groudon will hold it after being captured, depending on which version you have. Rayquaza will be holding it. for Typhlosion, meganium, and Feraligatr, Prof. Birch will give you their correct stone after you get one.
New areas to be introduced?
Yes, not huge new areas but new. As well as possibly the battle factory like in emerald.
Ideas for post-game content?
If Kyogre, Groudon, and Rayquaza don't get Mega Evolutions, they might get a new form instead. This is inspected from the box art of both games, Groudon looks almost the same, but Kyogre looks different in the box, he has new lines in his head, of course, this could just be a drawing error, but the chance is low. They should also add some of the new features from X & Y, such as pokemon amie, and other features.

 

[«Chuckles»]

Who will be the protagonists?
Joseph Joestar and Dio Brando
What role will Wally play?
He'll be the same as before
What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Three way Champion battle, that came about a lot better in my head
Will there be any other League-related changes?
Yeah rooms are now remade to be more like gyms where you have to navigate around to get to the E4 dudes so children stop playing
Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
He will be an accomplice to the protagonists and tag along when stopping the evil dudes
What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
He'll bring balance to the Kyogre Vs Groudon thingy
Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
I think they'll have their own unique abilities and kyogres signature move is Tsunami and Groudons is some sort of fire bending volcano stuff
— their roles in the games will be?
Kyogre is trying to steal the moon and Groudon is trying to steal the sun
— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
they mega transform by fusing together and turn into Uber Gundam Unicorn

What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
They will be opposite to their respective stones to trick people so they have to buy 2 versions

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
Yes
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
No happiny because even pokemon needs natural selection

What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
Mightyena, Swampert, Sceptile, Regigigas, Igglybuff, Ho-Oh, Lugia, Agumon

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
the underwater parts were tedious and evil. If nintendo is the evil corporation they are made out to be then they will put the stones in the smallest places under the ocean... im talking about Pokemon crossed over with Dark Souls. Perma death please
New areas to be introduced?
Ideas for post-game content?
You can play as Joseph joestar, Jotaru Kujo, Josuke Higashika, Gio Gio etc. also it needs doritos and mountain dew sponsor shipsss MLG

 

[Yuoaman]

Who will be the protagonists?
Brendan and May, most likely - probably with some minor customization features to make full use of the X/Y engine.

What role will Wally play?
Probably the same role as in RSE, I doubt they'd bump up his involvement by much, if any, in the main plot.

What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
The same roles they were in Emerald, rather than in Ruby and Sapphire.

Will there be any other League-related changes?
I imagine they might make the building and stages themselves more impressive, and teams might be rejiggered slightly, to make use of some newer 'mons.

Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
He will almost definitely return in the same capacity as Emerald. He'll probably also deal with points or whatever stuff you do in the Battle Frontier, I'm not an expert.

What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
Same as in Emerald, it'll show up to tell Groudon and Kyogre to settle down and quit their bickering.

Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
— their roles in the games will be?
I'm going to pass on these questions because my understanding of the meta-game is nonexistent - possibly adding Dragon to Groudon and Dark to Kyogre?

— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
This is almost definitely going to be the case, the items already exist and would fill the role nicely.

What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
The same as in Gen 3, probably.

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
Other than pre-evolutions like Budew and Chingling, probably not - they'll likely be restricted to new post-game locations.

— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
Pre-evos and evolutions will be included, others likely won't be other than maybe some possible new Eggs or something.

What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
Other than Kyogre and Groudon I can only really see Swampert and Sceptile getting Megas.

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
Underwater maybe?

New areas to be introduced?
Possibly access to the Sevii Islands, or another island that could possibly be placed there.

Ideas for post-game content?
Maybe the Space thing in Mossdeep will finally have its own plot?

>Who will be the protagonists?
Brenden and May of course.


>What role will Wally play?

Player's third rival with a larger role than in the original games, i suspect him to play an important part in the main cut-scenes, even relating his role to the player's.


>What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?

Juan will be there but not as a gym leader, maybe an important character nonetheless....probably he'll be encountered in Sootopolis before battling Wallace, who is still the gym leader. And who knows, he may even have mega Milotic in roster. Steven is still the Champion with a strong team and mega version of his Pokemon during champion battle. As expected, Steven will play important role in the story and battle the player even outside the league.


>Will there be any other League-related changes?

The team of all the gym leaders and elite 4 and champion will be same but the addition will be of possible megas within their teams.


>Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?

Well its possible that Scott makes an appearance and like before, he's the founder of Battle Frontier in Hoenn and helps the player throughout the journey and eventually sends an invite to the BF after the league is finished.


>What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?

Rayquaza still is the mediator between Kyogre and Groudon. I think that the two mascots transform during their heated battle and subdue rayquaza who is now exhausted. Its upto the player to help Rayquaza by providing it with the chance to "Gamma Evolve?" and then Rayquaza saves the day. And jade orb makes an appearance. You later catch it in Sky-Pillar.


>Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think
I think yes, either it'll be megas or alternate more powerfull formes. I bet if the it is a new forme then the form is "an ancient forme" which is still awakened using the orbs.

— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Gound/Fire && Water/Psychic && ability that increases potency of same type attacks && a devastating dual type attack of Ground/Fire and Water/Psychic(?) type.

— their roles in the games will be?
The Mega will be the centre point in the story line ...it'll probably involve the player battling the megas himself/ battling them with Rayquaza (supporting and commanding rayquaza without capturing it first).

— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
Yes, I bet that either the orbs change into mega stones due to a natural factor or they are scientifically manipulated by team aqua/ magma or stolen from somewhere/ or new orbs discovered itself.


>What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?

Both games will have the same version exclusiveness as of the original games with the addition of some newer pokemon from other regions and I'm hoping that there will be "exclusive" megas just like X and Y. They'll be for e.g Alpha Tropius and Omega Tropius or Mega Tropius Alpha and Mega Tropius Omega.

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded? I'm betting that the legendaries will especially the version exclusive ones will be excluded from both. It'll probably have a fairly large post-game new area along with battle fronties where we can capture pokemon from different regions and I'm counting on something similar to Emerald in that the safari zone expands after the game.


>What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?

Mega evolutions for all the final starters of every region or at least for the regional starters. Then we have Tropius, Spinda, Plusle, Minun, Yanmega, Donphan, Latios, Latias, Deoxys, Groudon, Kygre, Rayquaza, Ursaring....Jynx?,Alatria...
Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?


>New areas to be introduced?

I expect the Safari Zone to have new editions along with battle front and the altering cave north of Slateport will have a new area replace it, probably an important one. Areas to capture new Pokemon and side quests just like Sevii Isles can be expected.


>Ideas for post-game content?

Battle Frontier, Expanded safari zone, new islands opened,, Mirage island mechanics change and are available post game but it'll be revamped because the berry it had and wynauts are very common , it'll be pointless to have the island for that sole purpose...I'm hoping a new event will be there, possibly rarer items, pokemons, (Togepi?), ... Then the rematches will be there, with all leaders . I can also assume Oak will pay us a visit...or also some other Professors....

 

[TheRealDylanator]

Who will be the protagonists?
Bendan and May.

What role will Wally play?
Rival, he saves your life.

What roles do you think Juan, Wallace, and Steven will fill?
Same as original.

Will there be any other League-related changes?
Yes, before you enter the league you are to battle Dawn or D/P/P's male protagonist, you choose, the other will be fight-able after the league.

Will Scott make a return? If so, what as?
Yes, the same as before but also gives you a mega stone.

What will Rayquaza's role in the story be?
To restore order to the word as the game nears the end.

Assume Kyogre and Groudon receive Mega Evolutions. What do you think

— their types / abilities / signature moves will be?
Groundon: Ground, dragon Kyogre: Water, rock. (Odd huh) (Both to counter Rayquaza.)
Groundon ability: Thousand suns, fire type moves power'd up, effect cannot be change'd with the exeption of million droplets and cloud 9/airlock ect.
Kyogre ability: Million droplets, same as thousand suns but for water.

— their roles in the games will be?
The two pokemon that are fought over, used to power machines and soon to cause chaos until, at the last second the protagonast free's them, only for them to fight, (That's where Rayquaza comes into play.) then you finally get to obtain your mascot legendary.

— of their Megastones being the Red/Blue Orbs? Or will they be something else?
Groundon's: Looks like an ordinary jagged rock. (Seen early on, not revaled to be Groundonite to the near end. 2: Or the same setup but a sapphire Kyogre's: A ruby, same setup as Groundon's.

(At first, Groundon getting a sapphire and Kyogre getting a ruby seems odd, but hey it's what I think, maybe the countering ore is the key to gaining these legendary's full power!)

What will the Version Exclusive Pokemon be?
OR: Groundon AS: Kyogre
Latios Latias
Oshowatt line Tepig line
Piplup line Chimchar line.

Will Generation IV - VI Pokemon be available in the wild?
Yes.

— If so, what Pokemon will be included/excluded?
EXC: Many XY pokemon INC: Many non XY pokemon.

What new Mega Evolutions will be introduced?
Latios, Latias (Real appearance) Rayquaza, Groundon and Kyogre, Infernape, Samurott, Swampert, Sceptile, Seviper, Zangose, Minnun and Pusle, Eevee and more lesser used pokemon.

Where will the stones for the new Mega Evolutions be hidden?
Given by hidden Trainers, anywhere discreet, exeption of starters, Groundon and Kyogre.

New areas to be introduced?
Team magma HQ, Team Aqua HQ, Jhoto.

Ideas for post-game content?
Mega Rayquaza, Latios and Latias questline thing.
Jhoto, Looker in Jhoto, Giovanni battle, Mew.
