I like that Groudon gains the Fire-type, I always thought it should have been at least part-Fire, though, it's true it only magnifies its weakness to Kyogre. At least, as a pure Ground, with Drought, the weakness to Water was nullified, now, it'll still be at least 2x weak... It's cool anyway, now it can make use of the sun for itself...
Primal Kyogre is freakin' huge! Primal Groudon didn't increase in size as much as Primal Kyogre... That makes it the second biggest pokémon after Wailord... which is also a whale...
I also liked the redesigned Hoenn map... I have no ideia what that island above Fortree City may be but looks insteresting... Also, the island on the southeast corner is either a Battle Frontier or something new à la Sevii Islands in FRLG or the Safari Zone and the new routes in HGSS...
Lastly, what does this all mean for Rayquaza? Will it get a Primal form too? I believe so, but will it be in these games too? They obviously are not gonna include Emerald's story in these remakes, it just doesn't fit. But it would be really unfair to leave Rayquaza out of the party, so to speak.
While the trademarked Delta Emerald may only be that, a trademark, with no actual game being released, I think there's still a possibility for the game to come out as it would complement these two remakes perfectly.
Since Kyogre and Groudon have an Alpha and an Omega next to their names, if Delta is indeed associated with Rayquaza, its Primal form would have a Delta symbol instead, within a green orb, maybe the Jade Orb from HGSS, and a third game could even introduce Team Sky or something like that looking to control Rayquaza, having a new story and be more like a sequel to these remakes than another remake... just some ideas...
Actually, I was thinking the other day... X and Y are equivalents to O-Ruby and A-Sapphire, one being red, the other blue, and then there's this 3rd monster related to each duo, both green and serpentine-like, that only appear to end the battle of the other two (as it says in Zygarde's dex entry)... My point is, what if, after ORAS, they released Pokémon Z and Delta Emerald as paired games (maybe with different names) where the stories of both regions would connect, with one having a Zygarde's new form (another thing implied by its dex entries and hidden moves), the other having Rayquaza's Primal form, as mascots?
I know, it doesn't make much sense, but still... just a theory...
As someone else on this forum put it: Groudon and Kyogre are not meant to be equals but land and sea. Well, what is there more of? 75% water, it is only fitting that Kyogre is has the advantage.
Also why would the safari zone be moved?
As for your idea about Delta Emerald and Z, it sounds cool but makes no sense compared to how things have been done. The pairs are always identifiable as belonging together and later the third installment (or B2/W2). Delta Emerald and Z make no sense to be paired together. Assuming that Rayquaza gets a Primal Forme, it will most likely be caught holding the item that does it (again assuming that it is just a glorified mega evolution) or take it to Mt. Pyre and they give you the item (makes sense only if the speculation that the "mega stones" are the Red/Blue Orbs.
Unrelated, the Battle Frontier had better be somewhere under that cloud.
