Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Trailer Release Date Arrives, Fans Excited (VIDEO)
Pokemon Japan released a trailer Wednesday for their upcoming reboot, "Pokemon Omega Ruby" and "Pokemon Alpha Sapphire." The trailer is currently only available in Japanese, but it shows features that are familiar to players who have played the original Ruby and Sapphire Pokemon games.
The trailer starts off with its roster of Pokemons with Mega Evolutions, and then introduces its watchers to what players can expect with the titles. For one, players can expect newer and flashier graphics, from the player's avatar, the cutscenes, up to the Pokemon battles themselves.
Every Pokemon game starts off the same and OR/AS is no different. Players choose a name and a gender for their character, choose a starter Pokemon, and sets off to become the Pokemon Master.

Every title has its different starter Pokemon, and OR/AS doesn't deviate from the original's Treecko, Torchic, and Mudkip. The game still takes place in the Hoenn region as well as features familiar faces like Mr. Stone and Professor Birch.
The player will still have to face the eight gym leaders of the Hoenn region before setting out to defeat the Elite Four. The plot for OR/AS will still be the same as it was in the original titles where the player will face both Team Magma and Team Aqua, with leaders Tabitha and Matt.
Secret bases will also be making its return on the remakes where players can choose to establish a base to rest and resupply without having to go to town. Secret bases will also allow players to battle in local multiplayer in the sense that the base is sort of like a Gym and the player owning the base is the Gym Leader.
Aside from the Mega Evolutions, the flagship Pokemons of both titles – Groudon and Kyogre – will be getting Primal Reversions.
The games is expected to be released in November, most probably first in Japan before being released to the rest of the world.
