ORAS Games in hand, I can say this:
SO MUCH NOSTALGIA!
 

[Neonivek]

OH MY GOD THE IMPLICATIONS

I have a feeling there isn't any.

[Heron TSG]

My body is ready... to install it on my DS in 10 minutes or so.

The implication is that the Gen VI games take place in an actual lore supported different timeline than portrayed in earlier gens (though events throughout most of the games are assumed to have progressed pretty much the same in each timeline). At the very least a different timeline than the Gen III games, thereby explaining the existence/presence of Mega Evolution (The Mega Stones were stated in XY were said to have been created as a side effect of AZ firing the Ultimate Weapon to end the war 3000 years ago and irradiating evolution stones with Xerneas/Yveltals power) and maybe Fairy types, along with the somewhat larger changes present in ORAS compared to some of the earlier remakes, and may be related to that the Gen  6 event pokemon Hoopa's abilities seem to be implying some sort of connection to dimensional travel.

What I mean Furtuka is I have a feeling that though by all logical means there should be a lot of far reaching implications... As this is a pretty big revelation and even could explain the dual nature of the series as a whole.

That in the end it won't boil down to anything.

Think of it like the Timeline split in Legend of Zelda... If you go far enough down the timeline they all converge as if it never happened.

Also don't forget Porygon Z!

..no they don't? The official timeline makes it really clear on what games go where, and the change in the feel of the setting between them is pretty apparent. In the failure timeline by the end Hyrule's pretty much degenerated into wastes with old men living in caves and feral zoras, in the Adult Timeline Windwaker happens and the new Hyrule that is founded afterwards has a completely different geography and a culture quite clearly shaped by WW Link and Zelda's involvement, and in the Child Timeline Hyrule pretty much continues to thrive in the way it has been

Who cares about the Zelda series timeline when ORAS IS OUT NOW?!

* Sirus fires up his 3DS

Good old Treecko.

OK, legit and relevant question:
How many of you are actually going to do a Nuzlocke with an actual Nuzleaf?

My answer:
I'm not, because I make too many mistakes and my darling name for my Ralts is censored because of the 3 middle letters often being miss used by teh webz.
(That name for Ralts btw was from my only nuzlocke attempt from gen3, shame it's censored.)

[Sirus]

Not my first runthrough. Maybe if I pick up a copy of AS at some point, but OR will be my "real" game.

[umiman]

Played 4 hours.

Haven't even gotten one badge. Heh. At least my shiny super Beldum now has max stats.

Also I lucked out and managed to get the following from wondertrading my zigzagoons.

1. A perfect 6 IV adamant Beldum. Pity he isn't shiny like the event one.
2. A perfect 6 IV adamant Chimchar.

[Heron TSG]

I started playing Pokemon with Sapphire, and it was the first game I did a Nuzlocke run through. My record for running through the game is 2 hours and 16 minutes. I never use the itemfinder when I go back and play the game because I already know where all the items are. Fuck yeah I'm doing a Nuzlocke run right away and seeing what happens.

[Urist Imiknorris]

WTF? A guy in Mauville just randomly showed up from nowhere and gave me a nugget.

[umiman]

You know... every since XY, I feel like the Pokemon games are making us more and more to be assholes.

Serena, Wally, May...

Like...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Wally is desperately trying to convince his... uncle? that he can fight as a pokemon master. So to try and prove this, he begs us to fight him so he can prove it. I then completely annihilate him in one turn.

I have become the rival. I have become Douche.

[Tawa]

Your grandfather forgot your name? D:

Maaaan I can't wait to get this. My only Hoenn game, ever, was a bootleg Emerald that taught me not to buy video games off of Amazon.

[Furtuka]

My god I love the sneaking minigame. I just caught a lvl 13 Taillow with Brave Bird when I was only on route 104
