'Pokémon Omega Ruby' and 'Alpha Sapphire': Unlock Samurott and Serperior, get new items and new moves

The two role playing video games that were developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo in 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS platform will be giving a treat to virtual Pokémon trainers who are residing in the United States. Regardless of whether players own a copy of "Pokémon Omega Ruby" or "Pokémon Alpha Sapphire," they will now be able to download a special Pokémon Emboar to either one of their copies. Gamers should also be informed that they will be able to unlock Pokémon Serperior and Samurott. 

In order to download Pokémon Emboar, players will be required to tap on the "Mystery Gift" option in the main menu of the game. After inputting the serial code POKEMON500, users will be able to unlock the legendary Pokémon. As far as the abilities of Emboar are concerned, the Pokémon will already come with a preconfigured perk called Reckless. 

In addition to the ability, the downloaded creature will also possess the following moves:

  • Flare Blitz
  • Hold Back
  • Head Smash
  • Take Down

In order to unlock the creature, gamers will have to reach level 50.

As for the remainder of the Pokémon, gamers who are looking forward to unlocking Samurott will not be able to do so until at least Feb. 5. However, it is possible that the same code used to unlock Emboar will be used to unlock Samurott. There will also be other requirements to unlocking Samurott, such as a subscription to the Pokémon Trainer Club newsletter, which can be done by visiting the Pokémon signup website. Gamers need to be aware that they will need to sign up before Jan. 31 in order to avail of the deal.

As for Serperior, it has been detailed on Pokémon.com that a code will be available to download the creature.
