Omega Ruby was one of the first pokemon games I played all the way through back when I was a kid. I loved the game then, and when I replayed it again I loved it just as much. The storyline is amazing and every update they added from the original games into this one made it all come together nicely. The pokemon themselves are diverse, and even though people complain about the amount of water in these games, I didn't find it that annoying at all. The surfing theme is one of my favorite songs from this franchise, along with the soaring themes. Flying on Latios' back is one of my favorite mechanics out of the whole series.

I LOVED this game and it is 100% with out a doubt one of my favorite pokemon titles. The areas were all full of life and it was great to see all of the new animations and interactions between the wild pokemon. I loved that this game was more capture focused and less battling and grinding focused, although I also loved all the fights. There were so many quality of life improvements made that helped make the game just that much more enjoyable. All of the little distortion events and breakouts gave life to the areas and made exploration more compelling.
