Newest CoroCoro spoilers revealed some new info (more previous gen Legendaries will be available in ORAS, new character), but no new Mega Evolutions. I'm a bit disappointed, cus it's always some kind of a new Pokemon. I wonder if there will be some "hidden" Megas (kept secret until release date), but many sources claim that there probably won't be any. We'll see...

Well, they did say that between X&Y and ORAS, you could get any and all mons. I just didn't think they'd use Coro-Coro for that announcement.
As far as the new episode goes, I think that this is post-elite4, which is good for me. It looks intrigueing.

After this leak I think that choosing OR as my first Pokemon game was a good choice. Mega Gallade, all those legendaries, Torchic as a starter  and also fantastically looking Transparent Red 2DS. Man, I can't wait to be able to finally play it.

I really hope OR will recieve Zekrom, Lugia and three doggies (especially Suicune), because apparently those L's will be version specific (the question is which ones to which version...). Rest are crab 
PS: Plot seems ambitious this time around (as far as Pokemon plots go of course), with that "Delta Episode" etc. And that Zinnia character looks promising.
PS2: Dat Wallace outfit...

The last news regarding new mega evolutions was back in September. Some of them did kind of surprise me though.

So as ORAS gets into the hands of more and more people, and more things are revealed it's practically confirmed now that all Mega Evolutions were already shown in CoroCoro. That means no secret post-game ones. A shame really, cause while I'm not one of those Mega Milotic/Flygon fans I definitely would've liked more Megas, cause it's always a kind of a new Pokemon. X/Y had more of them. It seems that GF new strategy includes saving "a few" Megas for each remake to keep things fresh (well of course, Captain Obvious  )
Putting that aside, only one week to the release date I wonder if I'll get my Groudon figurine
PS: A really nice surprise with Hoopa. Now I definitely want one in my team

Unless a special promotion comes out where you can download a never-before-seen Megalution. Maybe they'll do something similar with what they did in X/Y when game owners got a free Torchic with a Blazikenite.

I think early adopters get a free shiny Beldum with Metagrossite. But I'm not sure if only pre-orders get that, or everyone.

$@%&!*!!!
As I feared it seems Lugia and Zekrom will be only available in AS (Serebii says it, so it's a given). %&*@ Game Freak with their &*!ing policies. First they announce "Hey, all Legendaries will be available in Hoenn! Rejoice". And then they make them version exclusive... They are plain scumbags, cause once again they won't give you the opportunity to have two of each generation at the same time without buying both games, because even if you can get your favorite mons via trade I sincerely doubt someone will give you a Legendary if you won't give him a Legendary in return.
Sigh... oh well, I just hope someone will trade my Reshiram and Ho-Oh (though it's always a pain to give away Legendaries).
I just hope at least doggies are all in one game (though once again I fear the "starter exclusive" scenario like in X/Y, and I don't want to choose Mudkip over Treecko to get Suicune)
EDIT: Seems that you can catch all "members" of gen II, IV and V trios which is nice. And even Giratina (though as with Kyuurem, you have to have both version exclusive Legends, which "elegantly" says that you ought to have both ORAS games and PokeBank, or at least generous friends).

I am curious what version you guys are going to get or have already gotten. I myself am directed towards Sapphire.
Blobby, if you need two legendaries for a third, can't you just switch around those two between two or more players to get many third legendaries? Or do they get expended when used the first time perhaps?

Yeah, I suppose so.
I'm picking Ruby and I'm just angry that I didn't get Lugia and Zekrom, though at the end of the day I'll probably get them for their Ruby counterparts. I don't want to collect every Pokemon all over again, I'm targeting only those Pokes I like. At least I'm getting Palkia

I'm getting Ruby as well. For the very simple reason that Ruby was the one I got 12 years ago. I've also managed to convince my bro to get Sapphire, so we'll probably end up swapping some mons around.

Congrats War. You finally managed to convince your brother into buying the game. Eat that GameFreak! I, on the other hand, can picture my brother playing Pokemon

Yes, my masterplan is all set in motion. According to the new Hoenn Dex on serebii, Magnezone is playable. Now all I need is to know is if I need to trade it back to Y to evolve it.

Reading through some of Serebii's coverage (I'm trying to avoid spoilers, but...) I found a cool little thing: there are four possible Surf rides, one of them being a Sharpedo. How cool is that! And Sharpedo is obtainable in post-game even in Ruby so...
"Too much water" as the now famous IGN's reviewer quote says has it's merits

As cool as that is and the more I think it a good idea to have my Sharpedo as my surfing mon, you should realy read better.
Carvanha and Sharpedo are both easily catchable pre-elite-4 in both versions. Carvanha and Sharpedo are not especially linked to Sapphire other than being a favored mon of Team Aqua.

I am personally getting Omega Ruby because it is red... and I like red... On the other hand, this is going to be my first actual Pokemon game, so I am super excited. Besides, what's wrong with this water? I think that diving spots are a great way put a little bit of secret areas here and there to keep game more interesting.

They were in the original, so there's nothing new there.
But the reporter is referring to the fact that Hoenn, the region of this game, has by far the most water routes. Most regions have 2 or 3. Hoenn has 18.

Travelling and exploring the seas could be a real pain in the butt but you could really feel the evironmental theme of the game.

I am picking Alpha Sapphire because Sableye and Ludicolo are two of my favourite pokémon EVER and i wouldn't want to miss them for the world.
