ORAS Confirmed Mega Pokémon in OR/AS

[split] New (Mega) Pokémon in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire: Your Hopes and Expectations

This might be a bid of topic, but in the latest Pokemon episodes Mega segment, which focused on Mega Salamence, it showed that the giant wing, isn't in fact always connected. I personally think it always should have seperated wings, I mean, it looks like a boomerang, but I thought I'd share it with you guys, to see what you think about it

Really cool footage.

The reason why we need to see an anime feature it to realize this, is because of something that's been weird to me in XY already...

All pokemon which are viable for sky battles (we need a shorter and technical term that isn't tied to the battle-mode for this, like "airborne" in the sense that it can be in a flying position for an indefinite amount of time), they have an extra animation of them while they are airborne, in addition to the regular fighting position. And in XY, in any and all battles, the airborne stance is used ALWAYS. Not just sky battles like you would expect at first.
(The regular stance can be seen in Amie for many of these pokemon, including Salamence)
Pokemon who are also airborne but cannot pariticapte in sky battles do not assume their airborne animation in battle (for example Pidgey stands on the ground, while Pidgeot is flying).

I really wish they'd figure this stuff out -.-
Introduce some kind of mechanics that determine which animation is used.
For example, if Gravity or Smack Down or something is used, AT LEAST then they should assume their grounded position. But even nicer would be if they came on the battle field grounded and took off.
Or possibly be grounded in between turns and fly as soon as moves are put in for the turn.
Except for sky battles obviously, which is the only situation where the pokemon would HAVE TO be in their airborne stance the whole time.

gamefreak is really behind on a lot of these small details...

Salamence looks like a helicopter or a seaplane with those things that used to be its belly looking like floats.
 
[split] Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Demo Discussion

Mega Glalie level 40 stats:
122/73/63/75/75/69 => (mega evolve)
122/106/63/111/75/85

So Attack, Sp. Attack and Speed increase. Def and Sp. Def stay the same. Does someone have time to calculate the base stats?
 
RE: New Mega Pokémon in OR/AS

I'm really like Mega Glalie design , the design is excellent . My only problem about Mega Glalie after watch it fight in demo is ... it can't shut it mouth . If Mega Glalie can shut his mouth , i will consider it as one of my signature pokemon . But ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJehjtUGcR8

Mega Glalie never shut it mouth during a fight . This is the reason i won't choose it as one of my signature pokemon .
The mouth is always open and i can't stand that
 
RE: New Mega Pokémon in OR/AS

I do like how Mega Steelix has these mega-like crystals jutting out from it.

Also, Mega Glalie can only be described as this:

Guys, is it a little odd there's only one Ice-type mega evolution? Not that I'm complaining, but I just realized something, Glacia is a Ice-type user. Her main Pokemon is obviously Walrein. And yet, there's only Mega Glalie (And I might add, they royally screwed up the artworks of Ice-type Mega Evolutions; See Example A and B :p) Of course, there is the possibility that the Hoenn Elite Four are not using mega evolutions. But let's just say they do, does that means Glalie is her main Pokemon? It seems a little odd to use her non-main Pokemon as a last resort. *Shrugs*

IIRC I think in the demo's code the E4 did get mega evolutions on the second run through and glalie is glacia's. Absol is sydney's, and sableye is phoebe's. The rest I can't remember.
 
RE: New (Mega) Pokémon in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire: Your Hopes and Expectations

^Drake's is Salamence and Steven's is Metagross (both kinda obvious)... Although Steven already uses the Mega in the first run (like Diantha in XY)...

Don't forget, there is always Mega Abomasnow. Considering that Megas from later Generations will be in ORAS, it's not that far-fetched of an idea.

Abomasnow is from sinnoh. you'd only get it in the post-game, which is after the elite 4.

Is there an explanation as to why Mega-Sharpedo doesn't have it's horns when ingame, while the Sugimori artwork shows them? The official site only explains that it's fangs have grown and can do it again and again.

The only thing I can think of is that they grow out when Sharpedo uses an attack but when it's in a neutral state or being attacked it doesn't have them.

I prefer to see it without them and all the screenshots I see have M.Sharpedo without it. If they don't appear at all when the game is released then it might be something that was forgotten! :p
 
RE: New (Mega) Pokémon in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire: Your Hopes and Expectations

I don't see them anywhere at all as well. They appeared in every anime cameo, every concept art, but in-game they seen to be left out as every cutscene showing it attacking do not have them popping out or anything..

My only theory is maybe it's gender related.

EDIT: Actually, in the anime short, mega sharpedo sticks them out while attacking slowbro.
 
[split] Reddit Leak: Mega Flygon?

The current mega roster is rather completely disappointing..

Mega Sceptile: Kinda expected
Mega Swampert: ^
Mega Beedrill: Yeah I really do love this guy, he's my favorite so far, but they could've introduced him in a different gen and gave another weak bug type like masquerain or even dustox a mega and save beedrill for something else.
Mega Pidgeot: Not really a fan.. but they should've forgot about pidgeot and gave swellow, the bird IN hoenn, a mega instead.
Mega Slowbro: Don't really know what to say.
Mega Steelix: Ok I guess.. Could've saved it for another game though.
Mega Sableye: Expected cause of mawile..
Mega Sharpedo: Not the greatest design unforunantly.
Mega Camerupt: He's alright I guess..
Mega Altaria: He's alright too I guess..
Mega Glalie: I was kinda hoping for glalie to get a mega as he needed a buff but I wasn't personally a glalie fan period. I don't know too many who are.
Mega Salamence: This thing ruined oras tbh.. it's so overpowered and broken mega kangashkan on every x/y team is actually looking like nothing now.
Mega Metagross: IMO same as mence..
Mega Rayquaza: This one is actually a good move.. it balances the primals a little bit while not being the most broken thing to face either.. still broken but not as.
Mega Lopunny: Should've saved for gen 4...
Mega Gallade: I think this is the ONLY fan requested mega that actually got it's mega..
Mega Audino: ew, give the mega to something fans want.. ashame to know my mega flygon or even another gen 5 pokemon was taken over by this..
Mega Diancie: Should've been in x/y.
Mega Lati@s: I like them, but they're nothing exciting or new since I'd rather fly on their nonmega forms (or both) and I already have them in x/y.

If they really are going to go with this they seriously made the worst decisions for the remakes possible. Hopefully this is not all there is.
 
Mega Rayquaza is confirmed to be able to hold items while mega evolved.. it does no require to hold a stone at all.
