Update: Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Sneak Peak!




Pokémon Get☆TV has given us a sneak peak of the upcoming Pokémon games Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.  What we were hoping would be a more extensive look at the games turned out to be only a short clip of Groudon and Kyogre showing off their abilities, Drought and Drizzle, respectively.


The upcoming 3DS titles have a lot to live up to - the hype train has a lot of gamers hoping that we'll get to see Mega Evolutions of the signature legendaries.






In this picture, we see Groudon, the Continent Pokémon, rising out of the ocean.  Sootopolis City, a town built inside a ring of rocky cliffs, can be seen in the background.






Similarly, Kyogre also rises out of the ocean.  Perhaps this is a cut-scene showing the climactic battle between Groudon and Kyogre?  The games are going to be remakes of the original Ruby and Sapphire, so it's very likely.  Who knows - we might even get a chance to see Rayquaza in action, too!




Afterwards, this image is shown, comparing the differences between Groudon and Kyogre as seen on the covers of the games.  At first, I didn't see any notable differences, but one of our staff, TheNastyMan, pointed out some very interesting differences - Groudon has the Omega symbol on its claws, while Kyogre has the Alpha symbol on its fins.  I personally don't think this difference means a Mega Evolution for the two - rather, I think this will be a Forme change, similar to Giratina and Giratina-O from Platinum.

We'll bring you more on these games as it is revealed.  Keep your eyes peeled for more information!
