More Pokemon OR/AS Details

Nintendo has revealed a few more tidbits about Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, starting with a new Mega-Evolved Pokemon: Mega Metagross. Partnered with the current Pokemon League Champion, Steven, Mega Metagross is a massive Steel/Psychic-type, and possesses the Tough Claws ability (which increases attack power for physical attacks that land). Offensive and defensive stats also gain a significant boost from the Mega Evolution.

More details about the starting Hoenn region were also released. Players begin by talking with Professor Birch, head of the Pokemon Lab in Littleroot Town. This nets players their first Pokemon and Pokedex, whereupon they begin preparing to challenge the region’s eight gym leaders; the main character’s father, Norman, is one of them.

Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire launch on the 3DS worldwide later this year.
