Yeah I'd really like this out of ORAS, and also with whatever the third version or sequels are to XY. I thought it was great in X and Y, all that time and stuff to do between the first and second gym, since afterwards it was very straightforward.
Lugia and Ho-Oh didn't have significant design changes, and considering Groudon and Kyogres' XY models match their original cover art, I don't think it would make sense to change their design now.
You rang?
I honestly just think they are making the covers look dynamic. *shrug*
Firered LeafGreen had the eggs available AFTER the Pokemon League on Four Island.
...Exactly, X and Y take place after DPPt, which is why it makes no sense for a character to drop off a ring from Sinnoh. ORAS take place before DPPt, so if there aren't mega rings in those games, there shouldn't be ones in ORAS.
Also this. It's a different situation really.
Pretty sure eggs were discovered pretty much at the beginning of gold and silver. Hence the whole big deal about getting it from Mr. Pokemon's house and all that
That doesn't take up more than half of the story lol.
Again, in game text states that Sycamore tried to get a mega ring when he was young and the tower of evolution was built around the first mega evolution which all signs and texts point to having happened many,many years before the story
You think they illustrated Groudon and Kyogre completely differently to make the covers look "dynamic"? After Lugia and Ho-Oh looked pretty much the same in Heartgold and Soulsilver?
They added 100 base points to Mewtwo. I think adding 100 to Groudon and Kyogre isn't that much of a stretch (Although Mega Kyogre is the dumbest thing ever).
But mega rings still aren't readily available. If they were in ORAS, at least one character in DPPt would have one.
Except you were still discovering eggs for the first time in HGSS so that logic doesn't apply. And DPPt will be retconned with it anyways when their remake comes out. Do you honestly think they'll leave out their huge new gameplay element simply for continuity's sake? Because that is incredibly dumb
They could, but it would be a major continuity error, like I said.
If it's a direct remake, yes.
You obviously weren't discovering them for the first time though, they were in FRLG and RSE. Obviously it wasn't a worldwide new discovery in HGSS.
It makes you indecisive.
ANd my point is that pokemon's continuity isn't exactly set in stone. It's subject to retcons and you're a fool if you don't think they'll change anything about the story between this game and the originals, let alone gameplay elements. DO you also think pokemon like clefairy and jigglypuff won't have the fairy type because that wasn't discovered yet in those games?
They shouldn't be. All of these problems would be resolved if ORAS were sequels rather than direct remakes. It's impossible to make direct remakes without completely throwing the continuity of all the games out the window, that's my point.
And you weren't discovering mega rings for the first time in XY. Why do you keep ignoring the tower of mastery and the Mega evo guru who was clearly part of a long line of users? The fact that there had been legends about it for years?
But it wasn't widespread before te events of XY, that's the point you're missing. It's a significant difference.
WHich is irrelevant since it wasn't even widespread during X and Y and it doesn't need to be widespread in the new remakes. Just say that Steven got those stones on a trip to Kalos. It makes perfect sense, especially since it fits in with stuff Steven is already known for
:3c
You mean betryed.
