Well I'm sure we'll have the option to use these Pokémon as they are alternate forms, I doubt they will happen through leveling up.

Ruining Absol in one foul swoop... not cool GameFreak. Although we don't know much about "Mega-Evolutions," yet I'm praying they're just alternate forms - either way I'm already not a fan of this move.

Actually Magic Bounce is a good thing. It can enter into battle with no worries from Entry Hazards and the opponent cannot inflict status damage upon it. We don't know if there is a Stat switch either so they may beef Absol up some more as well. From where it stands, right now they improved upon it.

This is a shocking news because I was completely not expecting this, but putting "Mega" in front of a Pokemon just sounds really stupid in my opinion... I guess I'll have to use the Name Rater now.

Oh please be fake oh please oh please be fake. I'm not a "genwunner", but if this become confirmed, I might mutate into one.

I do have to admit this generation has been breaking so many trends lately, now they seem to be becoming a Digimon wannabe. I do have mixed views on this as those Mega-Pokemon look a bit OP, but I'm hoping we can just give them a special item to make them mega, because reaching those forms by level-up means we could be seeing four-stage evolution lines which I am certainly not going to like that much.

I guess I may end up not enjoying these games as much as I thought.

So if the Torchic line gets a Mega evo, will all starter lines get one? I wonder what other Pokés will get a Mega evolution?

Guys...There is a Stone that comes with Torchic in the Torchic Download event called the Mega Stone.

Read peoples! There is an item to get to the Mega forms.

First event for Pokémon X & Y. Torchic to be distributed from October 12th to January 15th. Hold a new item called Blaziken Knight. Can eventually become MegaBlaziken. It's also mentioned to utilise something called a Mega Stone

This is incredibly ridiculous, "Omg they are like Digimon/new OP Pokemon and they have stupid names so I am not going to enjoy this generation even though I probably don't have to use them at all and omg now my favorite Pokemon Blazeiken is ruined because it can evolve now even though as stated previously there is nothing forcing me to use his new form". Guess I'll just have to enjoy this game alone then.

Torchic hold an item called the Blaziken Knight, I can only assume the same will be the case for the others that have these Mega Evolutions.

[Hoenn Remakes confirmed btw lmao]

I dislike them but find them really cool ideas so you won't be alone dude XD

And "Mega" ISN'T TRANSLATED NAMES PEOPLE!

We have just the rough translation. We don't know what they will be called in the localized versions. They may give each of them iconic names.

I need to know more about this feature before I can form a real opinion.
I'm curious to see how they will come into play in the game, and how they will change things.
I also need to know if they're going to be stuck this way permanently, or if they're just alternate formes when they're holding a Mega Stone? Do all the Pokemon get this or just a select few?

There's just not enough information yet for me to form a full opinion.

Aside from all that... Imagine if Pokemon in their "pre-Mega" status can hold & use Eviolites.

This does breed whole new possibilites, though. "Mega Charizard" with Fire/Dragon typing will be much more useful.

Right now I've got conflicting views on these; I can't decide if I like them or not. On the one hand, it seems kind of unnecessary, but on the other, it could really shake things up, which might be nice. I'm going to guess that every Pokemon will have a Mega form? It'd be so many new Pokemon for Game Freak to add, though. But I want to see Mega Snorlax! {XD}

I don't think this new Mega thing would be that bad if every fully evolved Pokémon/Pokémon that don't evolve got one. It would be unfair to others if they didn't get a mega from. I also wonder if the event Torchic is the only way to get a Mega Stone or whatever it is.

But I want to see Mega Snorlax! {XD}
If we get a mega Wailord, I will be completely fine with this :)
