How To Get the Mega Bracelet in Pokémon ORAS

You will get the Mega Bracelet from Steven on Route 118 as part of the main story. This happens during a cutscene after you defeat Norman at the Petalburg City Gym, so the Mega Bracelet is an unmissable key item.

But before reaching this part of the story, you will first need to clear all prior gym leaders and beat Norman for the Balance Badge.
