Pokemon- Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Discussion

[puppy]

ugh.

the least they can do is give us different hair colors like why the **** is this kid's hair WHITE

thats a hat lmao

 

[Colour Bandit]

Thank god you can share your base through QR code as well as StreetPass, otherwise I'd never get anyone to see my base!

I'm soo excited about this.. I love the Secret Bases, they were like the coolest thing haha. I always used to make my base to the pile of leaves and then I put there some cool tables and lots of dolls and mats The Sinnoh's underground secret bases are pretty cool too, but I prefer the ones in RSE.
I hope that there's still the trainer customization like in XY. I thought it was great and I totally loved it ^^

 

[Reindeer]

Looking at the pictures, players are represented with NPC sprites like they were in games before X/Y. Safe to assume customization has been cut?

It'd suck, but I'd rather see it coming than be disappointed.

Ill probably be using all gen 3 Pokemon: Swampert <3, Altaria, Delcatty, Sableye, Mawile, and medicham. Id put milotic on but there extremely rare
Ill also be trying to get all the ribbons, i LOVE pokemon contests, because i was so little when i played sapphire

Same here. I'm glad they're doing this. It makes it that much more practical. I wonder if the QR code thing will be via Miiverse like it is for Tomodachi Life? I hope it is.

I already know exactly where I will be putting my secret base.

yea i just realized this too.
if customization was in the game then they wouldn't be using the NPC sprites though.
tbh idc though. customization was nice and all, but once i was happy with how my character looked, i stopped using it. plus i kinda like brendan and mays new looks so im find with keeping them as is.

 

[TheWonky]

Whatcare you guys thinking for your teams?

I'm using all Gen 3 pokes, thinkng about-

Swampert, Cacturne, Swellow, Torkoal - DUNMO WHAT ELSE, HELP MEH.

 

[WonderK]

I'm sure they will add in customization. They just aren't showing it yet.

 

[Kirito]

Don't know if this was posted yet, but secret bases are now officially confirmed!!!

So pumped for secret bases!! Hype for this game is already higher than X and Y for me.

 

[WonderK]

@Kirito: Already been posted. But yeah @Benmjy. I'm ecstatic about it. I knew they were going to keep the secret bases. It was one of the aspects of the Hoen region that made it unique.

I can't wait until they start revealing stuff about Contests I love Contests omg they were another thing that made Hoenn amazing!!

 

[Clara Oswald]

Really excited about the bases, hopefully they will be the same as the ones before (can anyone confirm?) if they are there are a few I'm thinking about choosing

 

[KCourtnee]

I'm so excited about this game. I can't wait to hear the music!

So in the following screenshots, those NPCs are actual trainers:

From left to right:

Add to that the fact that the Aroma Lady's name is "Alpha" and the Rich Boy's name is "Omega", which are names that would typically be used for the main trainers (in this case Brendan and May) in pre-release pictures, and I think you'll figure it out.

For all the speculation on this confirming that customisation isn't back, remember these are pre-release images. They intentionally hide stuff for later reveals. It even says on the site, "Game footage not final." We just have to wait until they either confirm it or release a video where a characters glasses get left behind while riding a vine.

That's fine, but I can't remember the last time GF showed something that wasn't as it would be in the final game. These NPCs also seem to be fully working, as talking to them gives you a list of options, they can be set up in certain ways, etc. I think if customization was to be in the game, they would just be default Brendan/May models rather than random NPCs.

Kalos also had that whole fashion thing going on in the region, which won't be present in Hoenn. It would make sense if it was cut.

Believe me, I'd love for it to be in, but I'd rather be prepared for it to be cut than to be disappointed. If anything, I'd like it if this was a Super Secret Base only thing, while everywhere else your trainer showed up with the customization. But I honestly doubt it at this point.
