...Yes you could.

Really? I thought you could only play as Kris...

Nope crystal was the first game to introduce are you a boy or girl. Cause I always picked gold for my play through

It can always be worse...

Apparently for Japan, their boxes will be colored for their respective game. ( Red colored case for Omega Ruby and blue for Alpha Sapphire.) And from the looks of it, the international release will have the standard white case.

Europe has it too...
Curse you Kalos!!

Meh, screwed up my EV training earlier by having to catch a shiny Seviper. Second shiny encountered this week.

Anyone have a Houndoominite they don't want?

I just caught a Shiny Snover on Route 17, my second Shiny I caught in the wild in this game. Since I already had a Level 100 Shiny Abomasnow I got via GTS on Black 2 and transferred, I traded Snover for a Shiny Diggersby.

Speaking of Shiny, I'm looking for Shiny Regirock and/or Regice. Can anyone help me out here?

It is possible Brendan and May are no longer the protagonists and are replaced. Also the XY games had trainer customization, so people will likely change how the main characters look anyway.

I don't really care either way, even though I really like May, because the characters you play as in the game are souless robots anyway.
