The Most Detailed Pokémon Games - Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

[@mat4yovg342]

I'm very happy to see so many new people enjoying this video! ORAS for life!! If you have a moment, please check out my main channel, "Mat4yo," where I made a song to say goodbye to Ash Ketchum. More Pokemon content is coming soon on that channel!

Whoa, that thumbnail picture of May is slightly different than the main official art! Is it fan art or something else? I just somehow noticed that she’s in a bit of a more leaned back pose lol. It’s really cute! ^.^

As someone who started with Sapphire, the lack of utter adoration for ORAS baffles me. It’s absolutely everything I saw in my head when I played the 3rd gen games as a kid.

They screwed themselves over by not including the Battle Frontier. That would have literally won everyone over (also why not just remake Emerald?)

Right! I started with Emerald and played Alpha Sapphire and honestly people hating this game made me realize people will hate anything no matter how good it is, except for Scarlet and Violet, that game deserves all the criticism; fastest refund of Violet I have ever done.

[@truedarkness4052]

Minus the battle frontier missing (which I personally don't have much of an opinion on but I know that's a big minus for some people), yep pretty much. I absolutely, and I mean absolutely, adore the Latio(a)s skyflute mechanic and the secret islands. Also Mirage Island is also way more accessible. It was probably the last time Pokemon had any genuine wonder or mystery to it, and for that this game will always have a place in my heart.

[@guts9980]

Gen 6 as a whole is it

[@TrunkJunky]

You'd be right if they had included the Battle Frontier at the very least.

[@butai2116]

ORAS was one of those games me and my friend played endlessly for hours at high school, getting all those legendaries the through codes at eb games. ah the days.

[@mr.thinmint2848]

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 KZbin. 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.

[@Radiolonestar]

This videos was actually really wonderful to see. People always love to downlpaly oras mainly because the lack of battle frontier. But the way you go in depth about all the subtle things that give it so much heart just really made me feel happy inside. Definitely need to play it again

Amazing to hear!! That's what I wanted from this video. Celebrate what IS instead of only complaining about what could have been!

[@katalystkatapatheticalyssa5987]

I swear the people who demanded Battle Frontier don't have an appreciation for anything else in the game.

[@jazc007]

ORAS are great Pokémon remakes, right behind both FRLG and HGSS! The lack of Battle Frontier might be a bummer, but it doesn't overshadow the overall quality of the games, especially the fantastic and intuitive online features! Because let's be real for a moment: BDSP sucked hard!

[@7grandnec]

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

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

[@speedupslowdown358]

Hey dude, ORAS was my first game as well, and it’s also my favorite game to this day, and to see it get hated on so much when it doesn’t really have any negatives to worry about when you focus on everything good that the game has. I love this game ❤

[@pedrovieira4806]

I loved this game back in 2014 and I still do, this games are really underrated because people like do hate on 3d pokemon games for nothing, besides the lack of bttle frontier( I'm not the biggest fan of, I'm more of a tradicional battles kind of person) this games are amazing, they really hold a place in my hearth

[@insecure8926]

I'm on the same page. The Battle Frontier never amaze me that much, but I loved the themes. Being able to hear the remaster version of the Battle Frontier on the Battle Maison was already enough for me. Also, I hate how people talk about the Maison in Hoenn being copy pasted from Kalos, but never talk about the Sinnoh Frontier in Johto. The place is an island in ORAS, and has differences from it's counterpart in XY, not only that, but they have a meaning to be there. The Sinnoh Frontier in other hand doesn't have ANY changes, ANY meanings to be there and ANY sense at all to be in Johto.

[@obits3]

I got back into Pokémon in 2020 during the lockdowns. One of the games I played for the first time was ORAS. I was lucky enough to play Alpha Sapphire without knowledge of the Delta Episode. Needless to say, a double legendary battle which ends in space blew my mind. I later visited my childhood home. I couldn’t quite remember the last Pokémon game I had played… it was Sapphire. We often wonder if it would be possible to experience the magic of a story the first time all over again. Playing Alpha Sapphire 17 years after the original might be the only time I’ve been able to relive a story anew. What a great set of games.

[@pauljohnong5924]

I did not buy ORAS when they came out because I was disappointed with the lack of a Battle Frontier. Emerald was my first game. I bought a copy of Alpha Sapphire last year because it was half the price. Oooh boy was I wrong for dismissing it. Now I just feel like I missed out. The Dexnav was such a joy. The post game spoils us with shinies and the multiple methods that may differentiate pokemon from one another in how they can be shiny hunted. ORAS are not perfect games, but they are still amazing. Everything you've mentioned in the video too. Fantastic. This video deserves more views!

ORAS are the best pokemon games. The nostalgia, graphics, details, personality, May, Wally, Steven, Zinnia, the music, the dialogue, the delta episode, and many more! It is better than the original games in every way! May is also like your best friend (and maybe more). Wally is like your fan that wants to become stronger to even match your skill. Steven is just Steven and the Zinnia theme is sooooooooooo good. Maxie and Archie are the best! And oh my god that end part. It made me cry! No joke! Overall, ORAS are simply the best and it is in my opinion: a masterpiece

[@majd333333333]

How anyone can call the ORAS games "soulless" aren't true Pokemon fans.

[@JJMomoida]

Your enthusiasm for these games shines through the screen, dude. It's very refreshing to see in this day and age of jaded players. I remember being surprised to hear that there was apparently some decent backlash against these remakes. I enjoyed them quite a bit for what they were to me: a modern revisit to dear old games.

Will always be the best pokemon game in my opinion

Playing ORAS during it's live era, was the best time I've had with pokemon-- EVER. Playing both Y and OR, completing a living, making my first competitive mon. Having mini games that give you EV's. The flavor and function of the touch screen and other interactions in the game. The most phenominal experience I've ever had with the series. I've been around since day 1 with pkmn. Gen 3 was my fave, and ORAS became my absolute favorite. Video was a great synopsis of the games.

[@Dibblesoldhollywood]

Omega ruby is my favorite Pokémon game of all time. Ruby is a close second because that was literally my childhood. It’s hard realizing how long ago it was when we had massive TVs and advance SPs. Omega ruby allows me to revisit my past I don’t look back on enough and I love it for that

[@M2JoyBoy]

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✨✨✨

After all the poketubers making essays about all the bad thing i almost forgot how good the franchise and especially these games are. Thanks for reminding me. (sry for bad english im not a native speaker)

[@Swordsmaster]

The arguments I hear why ORAS is bad: too easy difficulty, no Battle Frontier, and the original music was better. Why I love ORAS: there's no more need to grind since the OP exp share exists, Team Magma and Aqua having expanded lore, all the music is rockin' and easily beats the original for me, and so much more (a lot which is covered in your video).

I’m currently playing through OR, and the ease doesn’t just come from the XP share. My Combusken rolls the entire game regardless of type matchup, i literally don’t need any other Pokémon because of how insanely over leveled and powerful all the starters become simply by playing the game

Literally, my only gripe with ORAS that I can think off the top of my head is they're kinda easy compared to the originals and the lack of Gym Leader rematches, which has become an often recurring thing since Emerald and in recent years has essentially become a staple. Other than that, they're amazing.

[@blameitondanny]

That's just modern pokemon in general. There's nothing we can do about it. Now, my biggest gripe with the game is that they got rid of Ginger Shelly.

[@dmillz5501]

Commenting before i watch, I'll reply my thoughts after I'm done. I grew up after RSE by a couple years, so the pokemon game i grew up with was Diamond Pearl and Platinum. Due to this i never really enjoyed a hoenn game. I had played emerald on an emulator, but it was rushed and didn't have the same feel. When i got my 2ds to play sun and moon, i picked up a copy of Alpha sapphire, and didn't play it until recently, but i see now why people consider gen 3 to be the best. It was such a Good game and the additions of orad where top tier.

Pokemon Omega Ruby was the first Pokemon game I played. I was so in love with every single detail about it and how amazing it was. While I have become much more critical of these games as time passed and don't find them perfect (heck sometimes I prefer going back to Ruby), this video showed me how much love heart and soul was put into this experience and why I held it so dearly before. It's brimming with life and love and now I wish I hadn't lost my Omega Ruby cartridge cause now I wanna know so much more about this region and it's people. This video was amazing, as was this remake.

[@matthewesposito6973]

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?

[@yutqoi]

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

[@stefunnylim]

i feel your comment so much, can’t agree more!!

[@Mat4yo]

I'm 4 months late to this comment, but thank you so much for watching, and taking time to write back with a lovely response! I actually did find quite a lot of these details during my roughly 14 playthroughs of this game haha. I'm glad it can bring people together and I hope that Pokemon can find a balance between maintaining this kind of charm while keeping up with new technology and play styles. Long live ORAS!

What's sad is how you see how they did a proper remake of an old game with ORAS and see how compared to these, the remakes of Dimond and Pearl look even worse. You can totally reimagine these old games and modernize them, add new features and events, and update the story and still make it feel like a better version of the old game. Meanwhile, the diamond and pearl remakes were a sad excuse of them putting out the bare minimum and failing horribly.

This is how a remake should be full of nostalgia and mystery features for you to explore that make you feel connected to the past and future all together ❤️. I'm a gen 3 fan and I may sound bias but come on look at it in comparison to Pokemon x and y those were completely new games but yet Oras is what truly made gen 6 shine!

If there's one thing I regret in life, it was not having played ORAS the minute it was released. I was too obsessed with Smash Wii U at the time, that I completely forgot about it. It wasn't until early 2015, after I finally got a 3DS that I started getting into Pokémon again...starting with Pokémon X. I think it was towards the end of that year that I finally got to experience ORAS completely, and let me tell you that I was heavily bummed at the missed opportunities when it came to online interactivity. Would have to have love messed around with secret bases or contests with folks that aren't AIs. It was my own fault for missing out obviously. 😔 Fun Fact: The lack of a Battle Frontier never bothered me. Particularly due to my lack of experience with Emerald. I was always obsessed with obtaining that game, but every time I bought a copy of the game online, it would only turn out to be some bootlegged copy that would always corrupt after I turn off the game. It got to a point where I just gave up finding a real copy, and just stuck with Sapphire.

One of the things i most loved about gen 3 was how vibrant and colourfull the game looked, the water pudles, all the green, so much green and blue, this remake took that and went beyond it. never expected to like the POV shifting but it was muac.

My Pokémon Omega Ruby cartridge was the first one I tried playing after about a year. I was DEVASTATED that it didn’t work. I’ve seen restoration techniques online but I’ve been afraid to try them. Still lives rent-free in my heart, though.

My favorite detail about this game is that Brendan and May actually have different encounter themes depending on if you're playing with the male MC or the female MC.

Gen 6 is the generation I played the most by far. The wonder trade system brought a sense of risk, excitement and, well, WONDER. The graphics were beautiful, for the first time it felt more realistic than the anime. The national dex was a challenge to get, but with the new wonder trade and GTS system, was possible even with 1 cartridge of the game and 0 friends. Every aspect of this game was beautifully detailed. Just talking about it has made me want to replay it… so bye! Great video ahaha

my first pokemon game was Emerald, so i was excited for ORAS. i gotta say though that i love ORAS, its a good remake and it felt like i was playing Emerald again...to an extent. i was just so used to getting both stories at the same time that it threw me for a loop when i only had one base to go to and some other minor details i cant remember right now

[@Legoluigi26]

Alpha Sapphire was my first Pokemon game, but I honestly forgot how much care was put into ORAS. I did so much in that game, from meeting my beloved Swampert Mudddy (I confused the enter key for backspace), constructing my first competetive teams to battle my friends on the bus, leveling up some of my most special pokemon to level 100, and completing the National Dex thanks to wonder trading (I clocked over 700 hours in the game, and half of that time must have been spent on wonder trade #WTW) and breeding an army of phione and cryogonal to dump on the GTS until I celebrated the acquisition of my final piece of the Pokedex (Ferrothorn) with a Google Plus post. Hooooo boy I was seriously rambling, but I just have so many memories with AS. I haven't even touched that game in years since I'm worried about messing up this perfect time capsule to my past. I'm on a Unova kick right now, but I'll have to find a copy of Omega Ruby and rediscover Hoenn all over again. So thanks, this video really brought me back.

Our memories stay with us forever!!

[@mattmaloney6711]

This video is amazing!!!!! I loved watching it! Keep it up :)

[@mat4yovg342]

Thanks Matt!!

I love ORAS so much. It was the last Pokémon game that wasn't catered to the casual fans. For context, I was 11 when the game came out, so I don't have the same appreciation as people who grew up with RSE. But the game was just so full of life. I only wish the game had character customisation. That was the biggest addition to X and Y that ORAS completely negated. It made no sense to introduce it only to remove it one game later.

[@owenmurphy924]

It's crazy how I've done multiple playthroughs of omega ruby and I believe it to be the best pokemon game out there, and I didn't even know about some of this stuff. The people that criticize this game clearly haven't put enough time into it.

[@dr.trousers6101]

Weird that I’m nostalgic for this. 8 years now… what the hell🗿 Awesome video king, thanks a bunch

[@ablockthagr8]

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

[@thisismyaltaccount4195]

Great video on my favorite game. Thanks for this!

[@eshankpanchal4121]

man..you deserve WAYY more subs. Incredible video

[@HotWingChips]

This video was made with a hella amount of dignity, well done!

[@mat4yovg342]

Thanks so much!

[@bkingz1596]

Omg i found this in my old 3ds i have never once played this but still owned it for like 6 yrs

[@berg450]

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.

[@99999bomb]

These game are like black and white, hated at first but loved later down the line

[@klauskuchengabel6394]

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.

[@Dunkdastar]

Amazing vid, idk how it got reccomeneded to me. Subbing

[@mat4yovg342]

Thanks yo!

[@DocDoesGamingTV]

ORAS showed me how impactful remakes can be. I didn't like Hoenn as much as Kanto or Johto before, but ORAS really brought the region to life for me Rip Gen 4 btw

[@Sateuje]

Dang, these were NOT my favorite remakes but you have me looking at them in a whole new light. Thanks for your passion in this project!

[@AuraLeafstorm]

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.

[@fatherpucci2226]

I love these games! I wish the Pokémon fandom liked them more but “the battle frontier project has started” seems to be the reason why, which is kinda sad honestly because there is so many great things in ORAS like soaring on Latios/Latias or expanding on mega evolution and so many great other things.

[@WhoDaF0ok1sThatGuy]

His is one of my favorites so nostalgic.😢

[@Thorozak]

The algorithm pointed me to this video, I love seeing passionate discussion on Pokémon games! When playing this game the hand holding and easier gameplay didn’t sit right with me. Sadly I didn’t appreciate all the love that went into this game, looking back although it’s not as FULL as HGSS is, but they did a lot to make you feel like you’re playing Ruby/Sapphire but in the modern era. The amount of detail that went into it was great, although there’s a few places where the added details maybe weren’t needed, a lot is great Looking back, ORAS was such an amazing game and when we see what happened with BDSP….. I WISH it was something like ORAS…

[@Jesterman]

This game had twice the effort in 1 town than all of gen 8

[@celinepope]

ORAS released right as my first semester of college started. It was the last game I truly was able to play with my childhood friends. I remember telling my professor I wouldn't be in class because ORAS was being released and they accepted that 😂 ahhh

[@papapapa16]

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.

[@kdburner7356]

You took 2 weeks off work to play a game?
