OP at first I agreed with you, it sounded wierd. Now, looking at the fact that Groudon has an Omega on it's hand and Kyogre has an Alpha on it's fin, plus hearing the names over and over again Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby sound right to me now

i.e. a mega stone for Omega Groudon, but not regular groudon.

We don't know if they're forms or mega-evolutions, but we've seen footage of regular Groudon and Kyogre in ORAS, and the media has been hyping up the differences in appearance of their box appearance to how they normally look. Plus, when the fuck has Gamefreak drastically redesigned a Pokemon to that degree, let alone in one game's time?

Quoted By:

On the new boxart, you'll notice that Kyogre and Groudon have what appear to be the Alpha and Omega symbols on their limbs, respectively. The markings for these symbols seem to somewhat match up with the markings that were originally there. Going from the opposite direction, the markings on their limbs in the original design/artwork more readily line up with the symbols they ended up with, rather than the other (e.g. Kyogre's original markings resemble alpha more than omega).

You need to end it all before you can begin again. One journey's conclusion leads into the start of another.

R/S was about destroying the ocean(R)/land(S) the create new land(R)/oceans(S); destruction comes before the new creation, so omega is before alpha.
