Same here. Unless Gf sees them as been OP enough to justify the knocking item off to nerf them, however that'll beg the question as to why they even made them (well six of the five as Mawile is far from OP) xD.

Haha but you can't be totally sure about Mawile! I mean with the new secondary typing it got, PLUS one of these new 'mega-evolutions', it might end up being super powerful. Unless you meant Mawile in regular form lol, in which I would agree with you. :P

Don't see why they'd be battle only, but then again, Pirouette Meloetta is Battle only, but that's cause her change requires a move.

I'm not entirely surprised their battle-only. Look at the Torchic/Blaziken line. It's already fully evolved AND it's gotten a mega-evolution. Since it's always been established a Pokemon can't evolve more than twice (3 stages), then I'd say it's safe to say their more along the lines of 'super formes', in which this case they're being called 'mega-evolutions'. So honestly, I think they're definitely battle-only.

Ok so, this thread got 5 extra pages rather quickly. Did anyone expect something similar to the ''MegaPokemon'' leak? I hope this isn't true since it isn't confirmed either. There should be more leaks coming our way and we will get fully updated when we're able to take a look at the full CoroCoro information about this ''scoop of the century.''

Serebii posted the cover of the CoroCoro issue, confirming the mega-evolutions through the images on the cover. ;)

Iceshadow3317 August 8th, 2013 10:20 AM

Although they showed 5 Megalutions, I am a little disappointed that they didn't show more new pokemon. One in which we saw a while ago and two that are just basics. I was hoping to be the 2nd stage of the starters. I don't think we will be getting anymore news from Corocoro this month.

I didn't know that then. Well, I'm actually considering if I should buy X and Y now to be honest. It kind of bothers me that Pokemon is about to become almost like Digimon. I hope that these MegaEvolutions doesn't have an entry in the Pokedex of Kalos. xD

I did actually expect something like this. I was expecting a focus on Mewtwo, its new form and info about it. I got exactly what I predicted + 5 more that share with the new form.

Just buy the games, you shouldn't have to reconsider just cause of this, if you're a fan of Pokemon, then buy em, there should be no questions, even if these don't appeal that much to you, you should still get the game for everything else it offers.

It was kind of obvious they'll focus on Mewtwo considering the focused more on Sylveon and the fairy type last issue. This time it was Mewtwo and Mega evolutions...in a way both were a prelude of what was to come.
Wonder what we'll get next issue though...the new type chart and some more info on mega evolutions? More fairies and Mega evolutions?

OMG Someone with sense!

I love you so much right now and wish I knew how to like your most multiple times to show this.

This is actually perhaps the one thing that bothered me. I was hoping to see a bunch of new Pokemon, and while these are technically new designs, they're just new designs of old Mons'. So yeah, a bit disappointed about that, but the news is huge regardless and kind of makes up for that disappointment. Hope we get a healthy amount of new ones in the last X&Y-ccentric issue (next one should be the last before release of the game...right?)

I doubt you'll be forced to use the new Megas, and if other Trainers in the game use 'em, then that would be a good thing. The Megas will probably increase the difficulty of the battles.

I was sarcastic in that comment, lol. xD Of course I'll buy the game dude! I did also let the MegaEvolution leak sink in for a moment and I want my MegaAbsol. :)

Scarecr0wFixatioN August 8th, 2013 10:30 AM

There's still one more issue to go out x/y coverage right? Time sure flew, it feels like just yesterday everyone was getting hyped up on the possible sylveon announcement haha

Sure does...We only have to wait out the rest of this month, September, and 11 days and we'll reach the 12th. In total we have 65 days left to go :3.

@ Xander. It is nice to see that some of us are willing to look at the whole picture not just this "blemish". The game has plenty to offer so people who don't like Mega evolutions if you like every else so far then you should buy it.

Shouldn't we get a full CoroCoro X and Y leak in about a week or something? Or is this leak everything we get this time around?

This will probably be everything. We usually get all pages within a day or so.

I'm not sure but at this point it looks like this is all...not much news but it was big news.

Well, this is kind of disappointing. I sure want my MegaAbsol aka the new Alicorn but I really wanted my starter evolution at least. xD

I want to see them too, but at the same time, I want to be surprised by them when they do end up evolving in the game. Granted, I don't think, in the previous couple generations that is, that we haven't seen them ahead of the release of the games. So with that mind, wouldn't be surprised if we saw them in the next issue.

I think that GameFreak want us to discover the evolutions by ourselves then. It's kind of a good idéa and if this is the case then I sure hope it is worth the wait. xD

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 8th, 2013 11:09 AM

I think so too. If they release any evolutions next issue for the starter it'll likely be their second stages.

Z25 August 8th, 2013 1:04 PM

Yeah, i wonder what's next. Anyway i hope there are ways for any amphoros, absol, mawhile, mewtwo, etc to become their mega form. I want to make my shiny amphros one. This will definitely be interesting to learn more about.

Rivvon August 8th, 2013 2:29 PM

I can see how Mega Evos are the "scoop of the century," but wow. Next issue IS the last one before game release...unless you count the early October issue, but I doubt they'd reveal anything too major literally days before the games' release. Which leaves me wondering, what WILL be revealed next issue? We haven't even seen the second evolutions of the starters yet!

Maybe they want us to be be surprised by the new starter evos...and maybe we'll have em spoiled during Gamescom, which I'll be going to.

I may be mistaken, but I think this is the second to last one all together. Since the October issue releases on Sept. 15th and the November issue releases on October 15th, three days after the X and Y release date. But your point is valid. I actually just want all of the starter evos SILHOUETTES next issue; that would be exciting!

blue August 8th, 2013 3:36 PM

I can't believe we only have two months left! It has literally flown over and I'm really excited for these games now. I can't help but wonder what will be in the next issue regarding Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, as Rivvon said it will probably be the last issue before the release so I can sort of expect Starter Evolutions, Gym Leaders and more Pokémon. Thinking about it though if they want to reveal all of the new Pokémon in-time for the release and assuming there is atleast 100, that's another 63 to reveal since we've had 37 up until now, they're going to have to get a move on in more ways than they have been, only one issue of CoroCoro and Eight Pokémon smash episodes won't reveal that amount of Pokémon in such a short time period. I'd say they're either going to have some sort of event where a handful are revealed, they will periodically update the official website, or they will narrow it down to around 30 being unrelieved to be discovered in-game which I personally would love as a player.

Entermaid August 8th, 2013 5:38 PM

Mewtwo's new "forme" was referred to as Mewtwo Awakened Forme in the new movie. So, if they are claiming now that it is a mega evolution, there is room for inconsistency. Please let this just be the best fake ever created. Now, I am for sure not giving into this until the 12th! Or the night of the 11th.

iRyahn August 8th, 2013 6:22 PM

I'm not very familiar with CoroCoro but does anybody else feel like there is something missing? For the biggest scoop of the century the amount of information leaked was a bit disappointing. At least prior leaks offered slight information on certain things, but I feel like this was just thrown at our face with no reason what so ever. I don't know.. I just feel extremely underwhelmed right now.

I've said before this that the biggest scoop of the century is just advertisement. They ALWAYS do this. I actually got exactly what I expected plus a little more...like 5 things more actually. This is how it always operates.

WishCookie August 8th, 2013 7:21 PM

I wish that the MegaEvolutions somehow never happened and I don't want it to follow the Digimon roots but at the same time I'm excited about this since Arceus was the only one with this ability to change its typing but not necessarily its form by using different kinds of plates. I Guess you could this for a ''MegaEvolution'' for Arceus and I hope some can get used to it since it already have been announced two generations ago but only for a legendary.

Jake♫ August 8th, 2013 8:18 PM

Now that everything has been confirmed to be true, let's go ahead and close the speculation thread and discuss what's been revealed here!
