Pokemon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire - Page 12

I wasn't a fan of Mauville's redesign, either. Putting a massive shopping complex in the most passed-through intersection of the region? Admittedly, it doesn't sound like TOO bad of an idea, since it's convenient in case you need some advanced items (?) whilst in the area...but I wasn't a fan of having to navigate through that thing so often. And the fact that the entire upper floor was pointless aside from a TM or something. Also didn't like that the city itself was literally just a massive building.

*Netkeeper* · 06-09-2015, 04:07 AM

My first impression was hopeful and that all they did was make it an indoor city, which would have been pretty cool... but in 2 seconds I learned that was not the case and there was a huge problem.

When I first arrived in Mauville, half my team was dead, Wally wanted to fight me, and I had to run all the way back to Slateport because I couldn't find the damn Pokémon Center and I didn't want to deal with a frustrating layout with terrible camera angles and all sorts of useless fluff. I kept running into signs that would ONLY tell me where the cycle shop and gym are. Nothing else. They seriously could have thought this over better.

*Netkeeper* · 06-13-2015, 02:35 PM

Update: Whenever I pick the game up, I've been playing for hours. Definitely having a fun time with it now. I'm enjoying it so much that I think I'm going to get a digital copy of Omega Ruby too as soon as I can because I really want to do some self-imposed challenges on that copy. Would anyone be interested in liveblogs of it if I did that?

Current team consists of cosplay Pikachu w/Light Ball, Sceptile, Absol, Flygon, Latias, and shiny Metang, levels between 41 and 45. I just beat the seventh gym in Mossdeep.

Perhaps a really dumb question, by in the GBA game of the games, I could walk around with the sack and collection ash, and I get a step count for the item I want.

Here in the remakes, I don't seem to be making any progress?? Am I doing something wrong here in collection ash as its still 250 grams or what ever?

No wonder I was getting no were lol.

I played Sapphire and Ruby so much, that in the remakes, I was just running around "Thinking" I was collection the ash. Not sure I like the ground ash method better, It seems it might take longer to collect, Than the 1000 or 2000 steps you needed for said item.

*Netkeeper* · 06-15-2015, 02:55 PM

Eh, never something I was invested in doing since the items weren't anything special.

*Netkeeper* · 06-25-2015, 03:23 AM

Beat the Elite Four and the Delta episode, then I went back and emptied a bunch of dungeons I left behind earlier [the abandoned ship, New Mauville, Scorched Slab, Shoal Cave, etc] and basically all I have left is the Trick House and awakening the Regi's. Saving the latter for last.

Right now I'm waiting for O Power energy to refill while fighting the Elite Four a second time because the game didn't let me save before fighting Deoxys and I accidentally KOed it, but it respawns after beating them again. Just in case anyone around here isn't aware, the second time around their levels are above 70. After I'm done with that I'm going to use my prize money to buy the remaining buyable TMs and level up my Paras so I can use it to catch legendaries on the mirage spots [spore + false swipe, man].

Thinking about attempting to complete the Pokedex or at least get very close to it thanks to the DexNav telling me what I do and don't have in a specific area. It's so insanely useful. I mean, I'll have a really good Pokemon to go around catching stuff with, so why not.

Ruby and Sapphire were my favorite of all the pokemon games, and after beating the sapphire remake, I have to say I am impress, I think I have a new favorite pokemon game, and its the remake, sadden by the fact my 2nd favorite game is ruby and Sapphire, follow by the Gold Silver series, Than the Diamond and Pearl games, than Red and Blue, not to say Gen 1 was bad, I loved all the games, but Pokémon just got better later on. And I was playing Pokémon since day 1.

Now don't think I am odd, but I have a pattern of who to pick, In the gen 1 remakes, I still pick Red, Gen 2 Gold, and Gen 3 Brandon. With May being pick on Ruby just to see how the other sex plays.(Sapphire I got first)

I loved May in the manga so much, Or Sapphire as she was called, when I got into the remake, I said sorry Brandon, but May is so much cooler than you. A guy that just does contests and hardly battles and not beating gyms while Sapphire was kicking gym leader booty and taking names in the manga. (Sad but true) That when ask if I was a boy or a girl, I said girl lol. Yes, I am a big Sapphire fan, I was forced into the choice. Never before did I play as the other sex on a first time play though. When I get Omega Ruby, I will pick Brandon though.
Sapphire rules.

A thing I seem to notice as May in the game, I was doing super training(I am not sure how I feel on this, Its not as much work with Super training getting the needed EVs as it did with knocking out the right pokemon for said EVs. yes its easy, but I seem to lack the pride I did when I max out say Blastoise defense or Typhlosion Sp Attack, or what ever I was aiming at. Its just easy.

Back to May, my combusken was working on its speed during super training, using up the speed bags I got for doing the soccer training for speed. And May who is idle, just bends over and does a little twerk. I had to see it to believe it, but if May is not moving, she does a little booty shake.

I wonder what Brandon does when he is idle.

I had not touched my Alpha Sapphire in about three months. So after I updated it I put my level 80 Raichu up for trade hoping to luck out and get a Hoopa. About ten hours later overnight someone from Japan left me a level 50 Hoopa. Aside from Mew I thought he was the second hardest one to obtain and for a Raichu even if solid IVs and a high level. I honestly did not expect to get it.

*CyberCubed* · 11-11-2015, 08:28 PM

Best Buy (or Target, I forget which) is doing a black friday sale where both Pokemon games are only $27.99.

Anyone who didn't pick these up yet and was waiting might as well jump on for that price.

Yeah when I went on the GTS I saw a lot of, well non event pokemon for stuff like Mew or Hoopa ete.

I did not think there "fair" trades, but I did give up one of my legendary birds for a rain dish blastoise.

I was wondering if I did put a flash fire perfect or 5 iv typhlosion on the block, would I really get a hoopa or some other event pokemon in return.

Funny, I do have 2 event pokemon, celebi I think from Gamestop, that I got for gen 4. I dont recall, I pre order a game? And some how I got Celebi?? I do know it was gamestop, I than transfer it up to gen 5 in in black and white. and than I waited for the pokemon bank to finally get Celebi from Black up to RS.

The other one I recall more clearly, heart gold and soul silver was coming out, and I got the lugia mini toy plus Jirachi. I forget which one does Silver's backstory. But any way, I was able to bring them from Gen 4 up to gen 5. Than with Pokemon bank, gen 6 at last.

And I really hated gen 5's mini game for transfer, it took like forever to get the 2 in black. I had to get a luck shot in or something.

Well, I dont mind the layout, the goodstuff is underground.
Funny, Ruby, Shapphire ete, You could talk to Steven, and if not careful, skip Brawly. I did that in the first play though, and I had to go back and beat Brawly lol. By than I had what 4 or 5 badges when I notice I was missing a badge. I glad they fix that little hicup.

*MikeandRaph87* · 11-22-2015, 12:55 AM

What can I trade to get a Shaymin or Meloetta? Aside from Mew those two are the only legendaries/mythical Pok'emon I need.

*Netkeeper* · 11-22-2015, 01:35 PM

I have Mew, and once I get my White version back I can trade you one. They're legit Toys R Us event Mews, though I've cloned them in my Emerald version. That OK?

Sure. Just tell me what I need to do to link up with you.

I am not sure if true or not, but is McDonalds really giving out Hoopas in a weeks time perhaps with the kids meal toys? Or something?

So its sort of like Gamestop when I pick up Celebi and Jirachi for Soulsilver and Heart Gold? I brought my DS with one of the gen 4 games, and I was able to pick em up at game stop in 2011 I think.

And Celebi and Jirachi was not easy to get to gen 6, because of that dumb mini game in gen 5. It took me 20 or so mins to get them both because they like to hide in the bushs and never came, I was glad I finally got a sleep cloud and nab Celebi, but Jirachi escape. So I had to replay the mini game again, and this time I nabb Jirachi.

From Black 1 to the Pokemon bank, to AS was the easy step.
