Video

I'm four years late to this video, but I just wanted to say: thank you so, so much for making this I recently got back into Pokemon after not playing it since I was a child/my early teens. When getting back into it, I, of course, wanted to replay all the DS Pokemon games, (especially since I have forgotten all of the stories). But one thing I did remember was my love for Pokemon Alpha Sapphire (I have reseted my AS game many, many times as a kid LMAO). I didn't know why and the only thing I really could remember was my love for especially the Delta episode. So when it came time to replaying it, I was particularly excited And I really couldn't believe it. I can't even describe how much I loved, LOVED this specific Pokemon game. I thought my love for ORAS was just stemmed from me being a stupid kid, not knowing what was objectively bad or good. But now that I know as an adult, I feel like I appreciate ORAS EVEN MORE. The amount of time, energy, effort, and LOVE put into ORAS was so emotional to see. The changes and the small details they put into this remake was phenomenal and, honestly, I think it should be a standard on how to make remakes for ANY game. I could go on for hours on how much this game made me feel (there's a lot of positive emotions to say the least LMAO) But, besides that, I especially want to thank you for this video. I couldn't believe the amount of small details you were able to find and condense it into ~30 minutes. You, of course, probably found details online, but you managed to put time into ypur day to actually have it in your game and show it to the camera. And your voice! I can tell from your voice how much passion and love you have for ORAS, and it really is admirable. This whole video is ORAS has now become one of my favorite games of all time now. I've only recently replayed it, but I already want to start all over and play it again. It has become a game that means so much to me, like it wasn't that before. And watching a vid of someone also feeling the same makes me extraordinary happy and, honestly, comforting. Despite how random and ranty it may be, this video is one of those videos where I will go back to if I ever feel down about myself and need some comfort. This game seriously means sm, it's so beautiful

How can someone say these games are soulless? The more i play them the more i love them. BEST POKEMON GAMES OF ALL TIME.

This whole video feels like a vacation advertisement for ORAS and I love it 😂

I got Omega back in November 2014, on the day before release. I got 2 weeks off work for it. I completed it once and only once. I don't dare to start a new game, that save file is too precious.

This game with the Battle Frontier would have been the perfect Pokémon game.

Pokémon Alpha Sapphire is my favorite Pokémon game. It’s so unfortunate people don’t give the game a chance simply because there is no battle frontier..

ORAS was a great remake, at least for me. The first good 3d gen Pokemon game and Prob will be the last if Pokemon Company wont listen to the fan and community

ORAS is a love letter to gen 3.

gen 3 just has a special place in my heart. I automatically like the remakes because of it

Thank you finally someone putting some respect on my favorite Pokemon Game Ever Alpha Sapphire!!! Honestly people hating this game was what made me stop taking haters completely non seriously and sadly because of these overly cynical individuals of what feels like EVERY SINGLE GAME after Platinum that it made me ignore the warnings about Scarlet and Violet. Also best music of any Pokemon game, playing Alpha Sapphire in 2014 was a magical experience with headphones✨✨✨

Pokemon Omega Ruby will always and forever be my favorite pokemon game! Not only because I have so much nostalgia for both gen 3 and gen 6, Omega Ruby is also just an amazing game! I know I wish the frontier was there too but we need to appreciate what we have instead of being upset about what we don't. This video does an amazing job at showing the amazing beauty of Pokemon Omega Ruby so thank you so much

genuinely surprised someone thinks the one pokémon game with the most soul is soulless

Gen 3 is where I started and to this day it's my personal favorite gen, and ORAS really is an excellent and underrated remake. I think if only they hadn't omitted the Battle Frontier, it would be considered the best remake in the series.

Those games are a total waste of time.

Pokemon season 19 anime did a better job than xy & oras games.

The company added too much stuff in this game, I'm glad my nephews lost this dumb game for good. I don't wish for my nephews to play such a game.

This game makes full use of the 3ds, I always felt like RPGs did so much with the second screen for the Nintendo DS and the 3DS did the same, the second screen really let you have neat little features like the PokeNav.

I’ll never understand how anyone can say “HG/SS was bEtTeR” 😂 when ORAS quite literally perfected what a remake should be by ADDING content and blending old vs new

I'd love to see what your pal Kevin thinks of brilliant diamond and shining pearl those things arevthe most soulless things I've ever seen. And that's just an understatement.

this video radicalized me from being an ORAS defender to an ORAS crusader

God ORAS is beautiful, ugh take me back to the release of ORAS. It was my very first own pokemon game and it was amazing! Everytime I hear the music from The Delta Episode it tugs at my heartstrings! From someone who's logged 700+ hours of my life into Alpha Sapphire since 2014 and still going strong in 2023 I loved this video <3

2:26 gimmigoul was teased 😂

May is love,may is life Also is it a coincidence that ORAS was announced in may?

I also watched 2 pokemon films: Diancie & the cocoon of destrucion & Hoopa & the clash of ages. Even those films did better than the xy & oras games.😏

Definitely my favorite pokémon games. They're amazing.

This is video Is so well done, I feel the passion right through my phone screen. You hit the beauty of the ORAS games right on the head. Thank you for making this

No other Pokémon game will EVER top OR/AS for me. I grew up with Pokémon from the very beginning, but R/S/E were the games I played the most. When OR/AS was announced I was ecstatic. And when I finally got to play it, oh my God, I loved it to pieces. This is honestly my favorite video on CZcams. You've managed to put into words everything that I love about these games. So much heart and soul went into these games and it's a damn shame that they're so under appreciated.

I agree that ORAS feel like the most detailed Pokemon games. Despite some of their flaws (which I *largely* owe to the change in management around this time that would affect future games even more), I truly think that ORAS were the peak Pokemon main game experiences. Most features were perfected here, the gameplay is smooth and replayable, the Gen 6 engine makes Hoenn look incredible even today, the story is really entertaining, the music has been remastered beautifully, the postgame is massive and detailed, and the games take great advantage of the the 3DS's capabilities. I would say that ORAS are the last good games in the main series. They feel like the last games that the developers put a lot of their heart and soul into. ORAS, to me, feels like the end of Pokemon trying to reach its potential. It's sad that now it's a far cry from how it was in Gen 6 and earlier generations, but I'll never forget those times...

I loved playing Sapphire and Emerald as a child. The details then were astounding. Edit: I can bring my OG Kyogre to AS?!

This is why alpha sapphire has been my favorite game since it came out. And it contests hard with my runners up. I played my alpha sapphire for hundreds and hundreds of hours, and probably still will to come.

Yahdah Yahuah YAHUSHA

Battle frontier?

3DS graphics always disgusted me. After XY i dropped the series.

Just like me playing 4 diffrent wedlocke and nuzlocke on Pokemon X. Yep Oras and gen 3 is amazing. Love it

This is exceptionally well done and xriminally underrated

This was truly great work.

My favorite region!

This is a beautiful video but for me, the thing that has always turned ORAS sour is the in battle models and animations. I’m a pixel art baby and it can’t compare to the originals (for me). But I have to hand it to you. This video has demonstrated how lush the updated hoenn world is. I know what game im replaying next

just bought alpha sapphire as my first genuine Pokémon game just got to the 2nd city and im loving it i remember playing diamond and this game is a great upgrade 🤣🙌

If only it wasn't in the obnoxiously cute chibi 3DS art style.

I went back to this game and discovered I had almost 800 hours on it. They were great

I hate that my first experience with this game was as a dumb high schooler. I took so much for granted that I wasn’t able to appreciate until I played it again as an adult. These games are brilliant and arguably the last great games in the franchise (I think the Gen 7 games are pretty good still though).

I only wished BDSP got this same treatment when they were being made. Seeing what could have been ultimate Sinnoh remakes disappear in the trailer for it made me disappointed even though they were the first pokemon games I played.

While it’s easy to nitpick ORAS for leaving out additional content that had been added in Emerald, the difficulty of grinding post elite 4, and many other, I do adore these games for the graphics and content they did include and obviously put a lot of effort into it! Still 10/10 IMO. Also anyone else notice what looks like a gimmighoul book in the trainer school frame?

It's the best game out of everything passed gen five I'll say but... It's not so great to be put into the tier of HG/SS and B2W2. Those games are genuine works of art. ORAS just aren't at that level.

The only thing that makes ORAS not the best remakes of all time is the lack of battle frontier.

I think, I should go back and play those games more. I have still a lot to discover! Thanks you for your video! It has made nostalgic and excited.

This and XY are probably the best pokemon games ever, wish nintendo made a remake for the Switch, but not like they did the chibi looking graphics on diamond and pearl but kept the style, i would play it a lot

Pokémon was on such a roll with their remakes, and then they had to muck it up with BDSP

I played through ORAS just a few months ago and I saw the action figures and immediately thought AMONG US
