Word/rumour has been going around the internet lately about a possible Battle Frontier inclusion to the Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire Pokemon games.
I'm making this post to tell you that this info is ACTUALLY accurate/true.
In case you didn't know,the 3DS has a REALLY complicated and weird way of reading and compiling data (when compared to other systems).
The Pokemon Company and GAMEFREAK HAVE been having HARSH times putting Pokemon games together on the system,because of it's unique and complex make up (this explains for you why both Pokemon X and Y were so glitchy and needed so many PATCHES in the first place).
Errors that Pokemon X and Y suffered [before patches]:
*Easily corrupted save data
*Some Pokemon moves not being learnt
*Poke ball animations not responding (only the original Pokeball animation worked)
*Game freezes at certain save spots (especially Lumiose City)
*Some PR video studio features not being unlockable
Many more glitches had to fixed (I'm not putting them all down)...
Simply put,it's actually REALLY hard work making 3DS titles that compile SOOO many different types of data (like Pokemon games do) and still run them without a single error.
((Pokemon games are A LOT more complex in data than most people would think)).
They've been STRUGGLING to push the Battle Frontier into the game BEFORE release,but it was being a bit too stubborn.
Where is the proof that they were even actually thinking about adding the Battle Frontier in the first place you ask?
The audio at the bottom of this post description (ripped from the games by a trusted source) DEFINITELY does well as a highlight of proof that the Battle Frontier actually WAS under construction for the games!!
Since things weren't going so well with the initial Battle Frontier plans they eventually (for the moment) halted the project in order to keep up with the scheduled release date (but DIDN'T erase the Battle Frontier audio theme from the game).
Being that I've known about these plans all along,I've been HOPING that they would hold the game back a little longer (to around December 2014) in order to raise the chance of them getting the Battle Frontier up and running (since these ARE Emerald games and they really won't feel so WITHOUT the Battle Frontier. :'(
Adding a working Battle frontier into the games (that WON'T corrupt into S*I*T WORST than X and Y) AFTER release is going to be even HARDER,since DLC packs aren't always simple things to add to some types of games..(especially Pokémon on the 3DS),so that lowers the chance of it making it to the games ANY TIME SOON.
I can definitely tell you readers (despite all the trouble they're going through) that they are consistently working on a way to get it into the game.
If only 3DS data compilation wasn't naturally done under so much DAMN compression!!
I could be kicking the Pyramid King's arsenal in GORGEOUS gen 6 2.0 (OR/AS/??) graphics!!! >:(
