So, bump due to a recent announcement.  Not sure if everyone's heard yet, but...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

^_^

They look ridiculous and the yellow looks much better on groudon than kyogre, where it just looks like an out of place yellow blob.

[Furtuka]

I actually kinda like the glow. It'll probably look way better in 3D at least.

(turn off smileys for full effect)

OH ARMOK YES

PRAISE GAME FREAK, FOR I HAVE FOUND MY CALLING

HUZZAH

Totally going to get Sapphire.

[Eotyrannus]

I don't think that's the megas. I think that's just that Power Glows.

[Mageziya]

I am very happy, that is all.

[misko27]

I had to pop in and say that YES YES YES. I haven't played Pokémon too much after getting older (being poor = No new handhelds), but the ones I did play were Silver and Ruby (and more recently, Emerald) so this makes me very, very, very happy.

That image is fake according to reports. It uses different game names in the corner.

[Tawa]

*quick comparison*

Sorry brah, he's right.

[Squill]

Oh wow it feels like I just got Y even though I got it at launch. (I finally got around to beating the Elite Four this past weekend)

I never really liked Rayquaza.

It's just another Dragon / Flying type with a stupid ability. Air lock used to be better when weather was permanent, but now it's so derpy.

It's stats are okay, at 680 total, but it's distributed so weirdly. Because it has equal stats in attack and special attack, everything else suffers. So it dies faster, isn't as fast as it could be, etc.

It's why everyone just packs it with stat-damaging supermoves like V-create, Draco Meteor, etc. but even then it's kinda meh. Middling speed means it's not particularly scary, though it has extreme speed to compensate a bit. The only two STAB moves it has are Draco Meteor and Outrage / Dragon Claw. Both are okay, but not as scary as they used to be before fairies came into play. I always thought V-create was meh on it, as it isn't STAB and it'll make him die the next turn unlike Draco Meteor. It also has iron head, but that's such a stupid move.

He will still die in one hit to ice shard or any number of anti dragon / flying moves. Of which there are so many. Unlike Dragonite or Salamence or Altaria or Noivern, it doesn't have an awesome ability to compensate. It's just meh.

It's also funny how Rayquaza would outright get obliterated by both Kyogre and Groudon in a 1v1. Kyogre always has ice beam which would instagib it. Groudon always has stone edge, which would also instagib it. Rayquaza has nothing to fight them unless it dragon danced a few times beforehand.

It also has iron head, but that's such a stupid move.

*cough*fairy bait*cough*

So... what exactly is this "Hoenn" business, and why is it such a big deal?
I've only played a couple of Pokémon games, and I'm not too knowledgeable about the franchise.

Third region. Third gen. Third trio. Fairly popular time for people to have started playing at too.

People have been waiting five years for this. It's reached half-life 3 levels of memeness because of how much people kept expecting it with every announcement.
