Learn how to enable and benefit from StreetPass in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, including Secret Bases, News, Mirage Spots, and the Eon Ticket.
To benefit from StreetPass in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, you must first activate the functionality within the game. This is possible after receiving the BuzzNav upgrade for your PokéNav Plus from the Devon Corp. president in Rustboro City. Open the BuzzNav app and press the icon in the top-right corner to enable StreetPass. Enabling StreetPass shares your trainer name, party members, and certain activities with other players.
StreetPass hits are more likely in busy areas. You'll know you've tagged another player when a green light appears on your 3DS/2DS console. You can also check for a green circle indicator on the game card icon for Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire on your 3DS/2DS Home screen, or check your Notifications.
StreetPass offers several benefits:
- Secret Bases: Other players' Secret Bases will appear in Hoenn's Secret Spots. You can visit these bases, battle their Pokémon, and invite players to your own base.
- News: You can receive news related to other players' activities, which appears in the BuzzNav.
- Mirage Spots: Through StreetPass, you will swap Mirage Spots with other players. These spots contain wild Pokémon and sometimes the Legendary Pokémon Cresselia.
StreetPass is also the only way to receive the rare Eon Ticket item. Once obtained, it functions as a permanent news article. Anyone who receives this news article and checks it in their BuzzNav can get the Eon Ticket from the delivery girl in any Pokémon Centre.
