I think, we've got some Hoenn remakes on our hands.

Pre-ordered the steel box edition, and it still didn't arrive... I'm so peeved.

dat sneaking animation tho

Incidentally, I actually created a team two years back that I would have for this remake and it turns out that half the Pokémon on there I've missed or the moveset has changed from the remakes getting rid of things.

Incidentally, any good Pokémon that are ice like or can use ice moves quite well? I had wanted to choose Glalie but it seems like a pretty crappy Pokémon competitively.

Idk, he seems pretty good with me. Like, from what I've played of him he can usually take out at least 1 pokemon before having to explode himself to take out another. That being said, there are certainly some better megas. (Salamance, Latios/as, Metagross, etc.)

I'm so pissed because I pre-ordered, called about it and apparently they don't have enough in stock to mail all orders. They didn't even mail me about it or put a certain limit on the amount of pre-orders, and they aren't sure how long it's going to take before I'm getting it.

Fml.

They finally mailed me and said they can't give out any more limited edition stuff, so I have to wait for my alternative regular copy.

Oh well, like I give a damn, I just wanna play it now :c

Went to the midnight release, first midnight release I've been to in my life. Got an awesome Primal Groudon figure with the game...

And so far, I've caught every legendary I've seen except Groudon in a Luxury Ball. I ran out when it came to Groudon and had to use a Great Ball instead, the next best looking thing in my opinion. That makes... Rayquaza, Reshiram (Again, I did the same thing in Black), Ho-Oh, Entei, Raikou, Suicune Kyurem, Cobalion, and just a second ago Regirock. Regice is next on my hitlist~!

I can brag about it because Luxury Balls have the same capture rates as Pokeballs. The thrill of hoping it catches it and the satisfaction when it does catch the Pokemon are what motivates me to go onwaaard. Oh, that and Luxury Balls look bloody awesome.

^I've been using nothing but Premier Balls since Platinum for similar reasons. Granted, I'm pretty sure Luxury Balls are less expensive and they give a nice boost when capturing mons that evolve through Happiness or that you plan to run Return on.

Luxury Balls are certainly easier to get in ORAS than Premier Balls, that's for sure. ^^'

Premier Balls are what another friend of mine loves to use, too. I can absolutely see why~

Caught Regice, Registeel, Regigigas, and Cresselia in Luxury Balls now, too.

The Cresselia turned out Modest, with max IVs in HP, DEF and SP. DEF, and an Outstanding rating by the Judge. The fact that I got those three max IVs (legendaries are guaranteed three max IVs, I'm pretty sure) and a Modest nature by pure chance makes me feel pretty good.

I personally love Moon Balls, as far as aesthetics go. I try to capture + transfer/breed as many Pokemon as I can in Moon Balls.

... I wish Apricorn Balls were available in ORAS, or at least somewhere other than just HGSS. It's irritating that since they're confined to just those games, it's impossible to (legitimately) obtain any Gen 5-6 or Hidden Ability mons in Moon Balls.
