6th Gen [Super]-Secret Bases!

I would like them to do interaction in the bases. It could replace Aime if it doesn't return.

I like the idea of it replacing Amie. Make it harder to befriend your Pokemon - because you have to make a base - so it's a bit of a challenge. Might make it more interesting.
 
Secret Bases were such a popular and well-received feature in Hoenn, I would be shocked if they didn't bring them back for ORAS - the region wouldn't feel the same without them! Now that there's visual evidence of their existence, I'm wondering if they expand the amount of things one can do in a base, possibly bringing elements from Amie like you guys have speculated - playing with your Pokemon, petting them, or maybe even some extensive new features like playing Hide and Seek or something o:
 
Yeah, I just saw a video about somebody pointing that out. It is in the exact location and looks very similar to how it was in RSE too. I doubt they would exclude such a unique and popular feature to these games in remakes.
 
So now they're pretty much confirmed, I'd love it if Secret Bases were expanded upon. I loved having a simple room to decorate in RSE, but I feel there needs to be more. Maybe you could get visitors from time to time, like the villa in Platinum? Or maybe people from around the world could show up there via the PSS. I'd also like there to be the option to fly to your base; flying to the nearest town was quite a pain. I'm sure Game Freak have things planned that are much more exciting than these ideas, though, I'm sure they know how much people loved Secret Bases!
 
I always felt that in the original games the secret bases were really fun but didn't really have a point. It would be really cool if you could set up a PC or a pokemon healer or something like that, which would give the secret bases more significance. Also hopefully just generally more stuff to put in the base!

A PC could work. Not sure about the Pokemon healer like machine though that is in the Pokemon centers being available to us to put in our bases.

I always enjoyed pretending that my secret base what my character's HQ like how Maxie has his in Mt. Chimney (in Emerald) and Archie in the Lilicove cove (in Sapphire and Emerald).
 
Perhaps they could implement bed as a furniture, if it already wasn't one; when you take a rest, maybe your Pokémon could be able to recover themselves instantly?

This. Uhmm, during the RSE days I wanted to love secret bases but there is like literally nothing you can do inside, unless you mix records with a friend. Now, I want secret bases to be more interactive. Like I dunno, have a random trainer visit you in your secret base once a day after the E4. Any one. Or a PC and a bed, if that is possible. I don't want secret bases to be just for design only. ;_;

Like a creeper trainer, just hiding in your secret base? Sounds... Well, creepy! But pretty cool!

Imagine if our introduction to Scott in these games is by having him appear in our Secret Base...he'll be creepier than in the original Emerald...

Lol I mean that's just so much Scott XD especially because he'd be like Looker from Pt.

Although that would possibly make Secret Bases compulsory, so I don't think it should be the first time. We meet him in Emerald long before we have access to Secret Power anyway.
 
A trainer appearing inside your secret base to battle you or something isn't all that crazy of an idea. People are bound to stumble upon your base, especially if it's a huge indention in the side of a random rock cliff. That's not very conspicuous, you realize! Or, you will realize as soon as you stumble upon a group of trainers partying in your base.
 
I hope that they can implement StreetPass and allow us to visit stranger's bases.

I also love the feature in Sinnoh where friends can steal each other's flag. I really hope that they'll implement it in ORAS as Hoenn is vast and the possibilities of secret base locations are pretty much endless.
 
What I am excited about is the graphics the secret bases will bring in ORAS. Just by the beds to the shelves to the carpets, I'm guessing we will be getting more items in the game than in RSE.
 
I hope we get more items, and that we can place more in our secret bases. 16 isn't much. I also hope for more decorations
 
Something tells me that this was something they did not intend to reveal yet! Or maybe they did indeed remove it as a feature because it wasn't working right?

Oh god I hope not. Please, no. NO.

They changed the camera angle...and to me, comparing the two images makes me think that they did that so the secret base would be right off screen.

There's a chance that it's not gone

By my count, half a circle should still be there. But I'm with you. The camera angle change confused me at first, too, and got me wondering. Maybe someone just released the wrong screenshot for E3 and the error was not picked up, with that image showing the base being planned for later. The question is which set of text will the final game have?
