Dive into an incredible adventure in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire on Nintendo 3DS and 2DS! Experience a fresh take on the world first found in Pokémon Sapphire Version, which came out for Game Boy Advance in 2003. With enhanced graphics and all-new content, get set to prove you’re the best Pokémon Trainer in the region, as you capture, train and battle with your Pokémon in this engrossing RPG! Take a journey through the Hoenn region, where two large organisations with opposing aims are locked in struggle: Team Aqua and Team Magma. Team Aqua seeks to raise the oceans in the Hoenn region, while Team Magma wishes to expand the landmass. In Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, Team Aqua holds more power, while Team Magma plays the more prominent role in Pokémon Omega Ruby. Whichever version you pick, you’ll find yourself drawn into the heart of the conflict! The story starts when you move to Littleroot Town: you’ll get to choose from three Pokémon for your first partner. Every Pokémon has a type, and you can choose between the Grass-type Treecko, the Fire-type Torchic and the Water-type Mudkip. Whichever you pick, raising your Pokémon with care is always important if you want a powerful partner – it might be able to pull off a fantastic Mega Evolution in the right circumstances, allowing it to tap into even greater strength! Keep an eye out for two new Legendary Pokémon called Groudon, who created the land, and Kyogre, who created the seas, too. Each has a newly revealed transformation known as Primal Reversion!
