Like the large majority of ORAS, pointless. At best you could presume its so you can use fly to leave, but that's what fucking escape ropes, dig and teleport are for.

A lot of ORAS is just a series of 'why?'s. Why is Mauville an inferior Lumiose clone now? Why remove the Abandoned ship? Why is Sky Tower a pile of shit now? Why is every route zoned? Why is pokeblock making removed? Why are contests single-player only? Why is there no Game Corner replacement?

It just keeps going. And unlike XY you can't use the 'its only the first game of the generation + lots of man-hours spent on making 3D models. :^)' excuse

>>26407306
>why is Mauville an inferior Lumiose clone now
Building off ideas briefly mentioned in the original RSE with Watson's plans to expand the city he never got to go through with, as well as to give a place to put a bunch of XY features and attractions.
>why remove the abandoned ship
They didn't, they changed its name and layout a bit.
>why is Sky Pillar a pile of shit now
Because like Emerald it is now mandatory and they don't want to make you have to go back to Mauville to get the Mach Bike should you have the Acro.
>why is every route zoned
Loading and rendering new areas. Y'know, actual technical reasons.
>why is pokeblock making removed
Convenience, so you don't need to spend a minute just to make one Pokeblock.
>why are contests single-player only
They aren't. There are two clerks, one multi player, one single player. A good complaint would be "why no online", but it's not like we had online Contests in DPPt or online Musicals in BW/2.
>why is there no Game Corner replacement
A legitimate complaint. Really wish they'd do something like maybe a Game Freak Arcade with recreations of some of their old games like Pulseman or Drill Dozer.

At least mention New Mauville being fucking gutted even though they clearly put a lot of effort into giving it a new look for the one fucking room that it is now.
>>
>>26407479
I remember seeing that they removed the arcade for legal reasons. It had something to do with promoting gambling among kids, still inexcusable desu.
>>
>>26407588
Correct. It's why Platinum gutted it from the PAL versions, non-Asian versions of HGSS replaced it with Voltorb Flip, and every game since BW1 on hasn't had it at all.

However they really should've given some sort of replacement for ORAS considering it was a remake of a game that had a Game Corner.

>>26407626
Yeah, but it's not MONEY, so it's okay.

>>26407588
>>26407610
Yeah, if I recall correctly, it was specifically the EU, maybe even more specifically Germany.

There's no particular reason they can't do what >>26407479 said, though: just make some more skill based, non-gambling arcades. Frankly, I think everyone would've preferred it to begin with.

Except, maybe, the Japanese and their retarded love of pachinko. Not that, I suppose, the US is much better with its Casinos.
>>
>>26407626
It isn't blatantly gambling with money and you don't lose something when breeding other than your sweet, sweet time.

>Except, maybe, the Japanese and their retarded love of pachinko. Not that, I suppose, the US is much better with its Casinos.

From what I've heard, meanwhile in Japan, the gacha shit in mobile games are about to be banned there altogether because so many dumbasses there have destroyed their lives by spending every cent they have or taking out massive loans just so they can get that one character they want from the blind roll. And this might be further hearsay, but apparently that might stretch even to actual capsule toy machines.

maybe a crane game like nintendo badge arcade? you could get exclusive items or something in it...

But "time is money" anon
>>
>>26407716
It wouldn't surprise me if they're cracking down on that. Pachinko is apparently also coming under fire, despite there also being lobbying for more lax gambling laws. Japan's trying to get a lot of shit in order for their Olympic games.
>>
>>26407101
Holy shit, I haven't played ORAS but this has to be fake, I mean, look at those shitty cartoon rocks and those horrible walls, it's like they're made of arabs.
>>
>>26407101
What's wrong with those flowers on the middle right of the screen, why are they glued to the fucking floor
>>
>>26407306
To be fair, they had a year and a fresh head developer. They also did add some neat features, like free flight and dex nav.
>>
>>26407479
>but it's not like we had online Contests in DPPt
And I disliked that as well. Why can't they do Contests properly? It's a good idea.
>>
>>26407101
Cocktease.
>>
>>26409762
I haven't played ORAS enough, what's inside that thing?
>>
>>26407101
I liked that. It helped explain why where all the water supplementing the waterfall came from.
>>
>>26409793
Nothing, you can't go in there.
>>
>>26412402
cheers
>>
>>26407101

It's Mewthree's cave man.
>>
>>26409793
Victory road.
>>26412413
Yes you do, where the fuck did you think OP came from?
>>
>>26409793
Don't listen to >>26412413, the water where the player is surfing is only accessible from inside of Victory Road.
When you exit from Victory Road, there is that tiny spot where you can surf. But there's literally nothing to do there. Rocks surround it to where you can't leave that tiny area, no special Pokémon can be caught there, nor are there any hidden items.
>>
>>26407101
Because a teeny ass pond constantly pouring into the ocean makes no sense. Here they added a cave opening to show it comes from the subterranean water inside the cave
>>
>>26407101
ORAS being cancer as always
>>
it represents all of gen 6: wasted potential
>>
>>26407101
for retarts like you to ask
>>
I thought it was so you could fly back to the Pokémon Center mid Victory Road without using an Escape Rope
>>
>>26412451
Adding to this, there are two of those outlets. The one in OP's pic serves no technical purpose, but the other one has Psychic.
>>
>>26415799
Oh so there is a reason for it, its just an empy end for someone looking for items
Havent played ORAS, was waiting for whatever third version og gen6 and with S&M announced Im not going to bother
>>
>>26407610
Did anyone else really like Voltorb Flip? I played the fuck out of it.
>>
>>26409835
>>26412457

I like this thought
