I love this game. I freaking love it. I thought everyone was giving it high ratings just out of nostalgia, but no. I was wrong about that. I had never played any gen 3 games before this one, but I loved it. Not out of nostalgia. Out of pure loving. For. This. Freaking. Game.
It's not exactly the hardest game ever, but it's not so much about the difficulty. It's about the thrill of every battle. About the enjoyment. It can get frustrating, but in the end it's all worth it. Just feeling so proud after you've beaten the main game. It's kind of a short game, but it's not about the length. It's about how much fun and good memories you had from every single battle you had, and every Pokémon you caught.
This game is just absolutely amazing, I'd say even better than Pokémon Platinum, my first Pokémon game. And that's going a long way, considering I freaking loved Platinum as well. You'll love this game even if you didn't grow up with gen 3.

I rate 9/10 for this amazing game.

My first time doing a review, is it good? o.o

Brandon/May is probably my favorite rival in the series. Instead of being cold/callous/edgy, they're your best friend. They just wanna help you out and get strong. This song proves it's really just "Let's see how good we've gotten! Just for fun!" and your rival DOES heal up your pokemon, which tends ot help if you've swept them with the last living pokemon on your team from an instance that decimated your team beforehand. So there's that. Admittedly, i got scared when May wanted me to fight her after becoming champion, thinking I had to sweep her with my Kyogre, my last pokemon, but I learned all six pokemon were at full health, and I was relieved.

@thateuphonistinthecorner5846

I legitimately thought May was gonna confirm the world of Pokéshippers' prayers in that final cutscene.

My friend has convinced me to replay ORAS and I am just now realizing how hypnotizing the music is. It’s so good, especially this theme. The part where all of the music ceases and it’s just that one instrument with the drums bringing it back in is my favorite part of the song hands down, idk why it just sounds so perfect t. If someone could let me know what instrument that is (or is it’s just a combination of sounds) that would be great!

@hudsonriversirens

Yeah better than the original, crappy low quality trumpets on the crappy gba cartridge. Pokemon Emerald was one of the first game I played and thought everything in oras was waay better, especially the music. But the exclusion of the battle frontier REAAALLY made me mad. I can see why people prefer the original. But then again they added megas, so thats an automatic plus

@King of Onions they really stepped it up with the regi theme in oras, made it seem godly af

@sergeantguy4404

3y↑4

@King of Onions The crappy gba catrige is what made the song good. Hearing good music on older hard were like this is always super impressive and much more difficult (stuff like duck tails or ending them to super Mario land).
I don't think the oras theme is particularly bad, but it lacks identity - The sounds are all very stock. Not to say there aren't massive highlights like 0:52, but your not being fair to the og gba titles.
(I haven't played either of these games, a friend recommended me this song and I thought it was good, so for all I know the rest of ost to either game is amazing or crappy)

@abandonedaccount6424

4y↑77

These two are so like able.. Also, aren’t they official in the manga series? (If you know what I mean 😳)
Even if they were more like best friends than rivals (Wally was like your true rival), they’re my favorite friendly rivals, and the chemistry and bond they have is just- adorable. The fact that they have such different personalities is a cool touch. May being air-headed, ditzy, sweet and out-going, while Brendan is laid-back, friendly, easily flustered at times and he even comes off as cocky at first, but ends up becoming a caring best friend.

Platinum comes close, VERY close, but they just nailed so many great things with this wonderful remake. My god GameFreak did a great job balancing the new of Gen 6 with the nostalgia of Hoenn. Came together pretty brilliantly if you ask me. Oh, and throw in the Delta Episode, Soaring freely around Hoenn on Latios/Latias and new-and-improved Secret Bases, and you got my favorite game of all time. Omega Ruby is my prized possession 3DS game!

If you ask me, this is the last good Pokemon game. Sadly.

They're exciting to battle and always quick to help you. Amazing games, 10/10

my most iconic memory of this theme was when i was desperately trying to beat may before challenging wattson in emerald. hands down hardest rival fight

0:33-0:52 BEST PART
This game in my opinion has the BEST music of any pokemon game

@stefanfr13

Oh please.
0:00 - 5:00 is the best part.

I agree that it has the best music of any main pokemon game.
I think pokemon mystery dungeon explorers has slightly better music.
Key word slightly.

Man this and the rival OST of ruby/sapphire sure brings back memories. Nostalgia hits hard

While the original one is so nostalgic, I LOVE the opening to the remake version!

@nailematua2694

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the work these guys put into doing this remake, because it was a damn good one 👍

My ONLY complaint about this theme is that the riff that should be at 0:10 isn't there, and it kinda hurts me because that's when you know the chorus was coming, that's when you know the battle had started. Idk maybe it was just '03 kicking me in the face. I do love this theme and its instrumentation though. Its music never disappointed me.

@VHCosta

I feel the same way, do you know why?
Because the very same riff that's missing at 0:10 is the main melody (or rather the first few notes) of the Encounter Rival theme (overworld theme when Brendan/May show up). Not only did it make thematic sense but also musical sense. And it makes me sad to see it gone too 😔

This is probably the best remix they have done for ORAS.

I'm really upset that this song didn't make it into Smash Ultimate. In my opinion, it's the single most memorable track from 3rd gen.

I got goosebumps of nostalgia hearing this theme, especially when in the credits battle, I almost teared up thinking of a younger me playing the originals.

@natsusalamander2396

After all these years this would be my favorite rival song. Especially the OG one😊

@walkerbraden5843

I love this! It's so upbeat and competitive at the same time!

@leandromarques8945

In my opinion, this song resumes what is and how awesome is Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. 💓

Todos esos pokemon me ayudaron para ganar la liga, pero, segun yo la batalla final contra el rival, es la mejor batalla de hoen, y tenia a mis pokemon al mismo nivel que los suyos, todavia recuerdo que mi aggron de un avalancha derroto a su mega swampert

Coming from someone who was extremely on the fence about a lot of the OR/AS remixes, this is probably my favorite one. It gets across the "Let's just have a fun battle!" Theme a lot more than the original did.

@juanestela6478

Ive been using my old 3DS recently to relieve the good old days, and for Christmas I got a new copy for Omega Ruby so I’m excited to play it. Context, I use to have Alpha sapphire but it stopped working and I was bummed about it, so my brother found a copy of OR 😂😂

@dickballs69420

I don’t care if ORAS came out 6 years ago, I remember how much I LOVED this theme. Nostalgia 100.

Brendan is one of my favorite rivals honestly. I finally have Alpha Sapphire after years of wanting it, and I just got it a few months ago.

I’m ready to sweep Brendan’s team.

@brandonconnell2598

I lost my game back in 2018... I hope you enjoyed it I've always wanted to go back in time and enjoy it for the first time again. There is very little music that makes me cry and the entire ORAS ost is what makes me cry.

@OmegaExalted

6y↑1

The intro is upbeat and cheerful because you and your neighbor are friends, but everything after the intro is there to remind you that, as Pokémon trainers, neither of you have any reason to hold back. And the ORAS remaster is when you realize you both have Mega Rings.

@Arceus Compare those views to the other themes...
Just because it has almost 4M doesn't mean it's talked about in the community dummy.
