Some more news for Pokémon fans – the Hoenn remakes Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire will feature some new mega evolutions! In addition to the Mega Sableye reveal from several days ago, Mega Sceptile, Diancie and Swampert – among others – were also displayed in a new video! As most have predicted, the game will feature Mega Evolutions primarily of 3rd generation Pokémon. While several of the more popular third generation Pokémon already had Mega Evolutions, more and more are being added to the list as time goes on and there are likely to be several more. The video with the starters can be seen here.
In addition to the above trailer, the Pokémon Company compiled an E3 video in which they present their best moments during the convention, including when the President Tsunekazu Ishihara himself visits as well as a peek at the Pokémon Art Academy game for the 3DS family of systems. What we’re most excited to show you however are some more official screenshots and concept artwork from Omegy Ruby and Alpha Sapphire!
Above are some of the screenshots that have been taken from the game so far. While there don’t seem to be many significant graphical improvements from 2013’s Pokémon X and Y, the game is certainly shaping up to look beautiful and many fans – new and old – are excited to see the Hoenn region in glorious 3D. We were shown the protagonist’s room, as well as their 3D models, some screen caps of being engaged in battles with the main villainous organization’s grunts from the Ruby and Sapphire versions and a look at one of the gyms as well.
The concept art behind many of the character models, Pokémon and locations or objects have been redone from the ground up to provide a more updated look. Among the art provided, we were given a pretty sweet looking Mega Diancie wallpaper as depicted below. Feel free to save and use it – the resolutions is fairly high and the art work admittedly looks pretty nice!
As stated before as well as shown in the trailer, this game is slated for release later this year on the 21st of November. Make sure to pre-order it if you haven’t already and keep yourselves posted for more videos, trailers, announcements and screenshots!
