6th Gen What did you like best about ORAS?

Soaring in the sky. The graphics were amazing and the whole experience was super well-polished. Felt fantastic and totally replaced Flying for me. Also, Fortree City is probably my favorite city in Hoenn and it looked even better in ORAS's fancy graphics.
 
The Delta Episode, particularly the idea of it, the Soar feature, and the remastered soundtrack.
 
TEAM MAGMA! They will always be my favorite villain team! ^_^ I also liked Soaring, Secret Bases, DexNav and Delta Episode.
 
My favorites part of ORAS are the DexNav, the team magma/aqua new design, pokemon contest ( kinda surprising since I used to hate it in the original) and the focus they made to some character like Wally and Brendan/may who got a far better character development than in the original!Even if i'm neutral about ORAS, I can't deny than I love it much more than whatever X/Y was suppose to be.
 
Soaring and the Delta Episode topped it off for me. I was already expecting these games to be great after playing the originals, but the addition of Soaring just made traveling around the region sooo much easier. As for the Delta Episode, I thoroughly enjoyed all of it and it made for some worthy post-game content. And Zinnia. <3
 
I liked soaring a lot. It was a really nice new feature, and I liked the mirage locations too!

Also the music was really rad.

The DexNav was my favorite part too, such a shame it wasn't in Sun & Moon! I especially liked knowing if I had caught all the 'mons on a route or the fact I could "search" for specific ones.
 
The DexNav is my favorite thing AS/OR! It makes getting good Pokemon easier! ^^ I also love Pokemon Amie! <3
 
Soaring brings the experience just like ridding a gogoat or skiddo and it's breathtaking fun. DexNav also a handy feature to look for same pokemon with different attribute also Delta was fun post-game
 
I have two things. First would be the justice done to Wally's character. Although they actually managed to make Brendan more annoying than the XY friends, it's actually rather easy for me to gloss over that because of just how phenomenally Wally was handled. He went from being a character no one really took seriously to one of the best characters in the entire main series, and it's truly wonderful.

Second would be the DexNav. It was phenomenal for helping players finish their Pokédex as well as prepare a competitive team/get parents for competitive breeding. It's still to this day one of the best features in the series, and I truly hope it finds some way to return in the future, even if it's revamped (just as I view the DexNav as an upgrade of B2W2's Habitat List).
 
The best thing about OR/AS is being able to search for "hidden Pokémon" as part of the DexNav. That feature gets even better after capturing or defeating Groudon/Kyogre when additional Pokémon become available to catch.
