A new feature is confirmed to arrive with the release of "Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire"--the Super-Secret Base.

The Super-Secret Bases will serve as a way for players of "Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire" to express creativity and have a hub to share with their friends.

The Pokemon Company has announced that this feature will allow for selecting and placing Decorations, which will serve as tricks which can be used in the Secret Base to make you be the boss of the rules for the kind of Pokemon battles that you can hold in your own Secret Base.

One way to make use of your Secret Base is to turn it into your own Pokemon Gym--and by that, you will need to be ready for when other players will come into your territory and challenge you.

"You can share your Super-Secret Base with Trainers all over the world! Symbolize your Secret Base with a QR Code. With a QR Code, you can get the Secret Base of a particular player you've been wanting to visit," said The Pokemon Company via the official Pokemon Web site.

In addition to this, communication features will let you connect to other players all over the world to share your Secret Bases with one another. There are a few simple mechanics when using Secret FBases.

For instance, visiting another player's Secret Base would need him to be there. You can either chat like friends or go into battle with them--but remember, their Secret Base, their rules.

If you find a friend's Secret Base or want to befriend others who have their own Secret Bases, you can make them your Secret Pals. Secret Pals can go into Pokemon battles with each other, while also having a person whose special skills you can use during your adventure.

If you're looking for more activities or side missions in "Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire," Super-Secret Bases can provide this in the form of the capture-the-flag activity.

"Examine the flag beside the Secret PC in another player's Secret Base to obtain it! you can take one flag per day from each base visited. Visit lots of Secret Bases and collect lots of flags to improve your team's rank and get rewards, including increasing the skills of your Secret Pals."

This activity will be easier because of the change in colour in flags, depending on your team's rank. In this way, you can easily tell another team's rank and vice versa.
