'Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire' cheats and tricks for the best gameplay experience

Players have been enjoying "Pokémon Omega Ruby" and "Pokémon Alpha Sapphire" since their release for Wii U last month. Now, the only thing left to capitalize on in the Nintendo and Game Freaks' epic role-playing game duo is employing some good old cheats. 

Beginners of the game will need Mega Stones and there are certain routes that will let them come across various types. For those who use a Mega Sceptile (Sceptilite) starter Pokémon, a Mega Stone will be acquirable once a player finds his way to Route 120 from Steven or Route 114 Stone Salesman. A Mega Stone for players with Mega Blaziken (Blazikinite) as their starter Pokémon can also be found along the same routes. One for a Mega Swampert (Swampertite) starter Pokémon may be there, too. 

To activate Trade Card color changes, players can try on codes like "Beat the Elite Four and the Champion," "Capture all Pokemon in the Hoenn Pokedex," and "Earn a 50-win streak at a Battle Maison facility."

There are also some handy codes for Berry Master Wife Sayings. From the code "OVERWHELMING LATIAS" comes Watmel Berry. "COOL LATIOS" will get players Durin Berry. "SUPER HUSTLE" goes for a Belue Berry while "GREAT BATTLE" spawns Spelon Berry. "CHALLENGE CONTEST" produces Pamtre Berry.

Courtesy of IB Times, players who would like to score more Effort Values (EVs) have these tricks to check out:

  • Oddish: 1 Special Attack Effort Value, located in Route 119
  • Swablu: 1 Special Defense Effort Value, located in Route 115
