Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire announced

Well, this could be previewing costumes for contests, perhaps we can dress up our pokemon? Still too early to tell, but I can't see them limiting it to just pikachu. Wasn't that a part of D/P contests as well?

Not to this extent, and not with their own Sugimori art. there is a 99% chance this is Pikachu specific.

Also I forgot to add: And we've got more info about the Pikachu costumes next month! how exciting and not at all a waste of magazine space.
