    Does anyone know if the different versions will have exclusive mega stones? I would like to have a Mega Sharpedo so Im just curious.
     
    I think the only version exclusive Megas I'm seeing at this stage are Sableye/Mawile, Latias/Latios and Kyogre/Groudon (Primals aren't really Megas but close enough). Camerupt and Sharpedo are the respective aces of Maxie and Archie (Maxie is battled in OR, Archie in AS) but I'm likely not seeing them in general as version exclusive because if I remember, the Numel and Carvanha lines weren't version exclusives in the original games.

    Most exclusives tend to be found in the same area as each other and those two certainly aren't.
     
    i really hope that the one for altaria ain't version exclusive. that was going into my party no matter what.

    Any links you have that mention this? It doesn't say it on Serebii which is usually one of the most trusted Pokemon news sources.

    I think they were just speculating lol, hence the "you heard it here first"

    Anyway, I don't think the whole "numel/carvanah weren't version exclusives in R/S so they wont be exclusive in the remakes" means anything about version exclusive megas. They can still have the Pokemon available in both games, but the mega stone available in one.

    Anyway, on topic: the only "exclusives" revealed so far are Groudon/Kyogre. I can see Lati@s and Maw/Sab happening too - but seems pointless since Maw's mega stone is available in both X&Y. So if you get AS (assuming AS is mega Sab exclusive, and OR is mega Maw exclusive), you can just trade Maw's mega stone over from X&Y and have both megas in AS, but if you get OR, then there's no way you can get Sab's mega stone without trading with someone with AS. Seems really stupid to me anyway.

    As for other ones (just me speccing here), I can only really see Lop/Aud being exclusives.

    Interesting point, but I think Mawile and Sableye will definitely be exclusives in this instance. Kyogre/Groudon and also the Latis may be the only confirmed ones at this stage but there could be a chance we may not know them all until after the games are released.
     
    Hasn't Game Freak said that trading mega stones from X/Y to ORAS will be unavailable?

    As ling as they don't do what they did with the heracrossite and pinsirite.

    The Heracronite/Pinsirite were available in the same version as its respective Pokemon. You were probably thinking of the Tyranitarite/Aggronite and Houndoomite/Manectite where the Mega Stone was obtained in the opposite version its respective Pokemon was, forcing people to trade.

    You can't trade any Mega Stones introduced in OR/AS to X/Y since the latter doesn't have the coding. The Mega Stones found in X/Y can still be traded over to OR/AS I think, just not the other way around. But yes, I really don't want to see Mega Stones found in the opposite version to its respective Pokemon again as I can't trade in 6th Gen at this moment, so Game Freak please don't force people into trading just to get a Mega Stone.
     
    At least Casinos aren't a thing anymore. Otherwise, Charizardite-X would be at the Game Corner for 9,999 coins.

    I'm buying Sapphire mostly because Team Magma's costume looks silly. But it would be nice to know the exclusives before buying.
     
    So what if there exclusives it's not hard to go to a place that has wifi and trade there.
