Serebii is listing it as evolutions. Under the X & Y section of the site, on the right hand side, the listing of the Megas is listed as Pokemon Mega Evolutions. Now, sure, Serebii is trustworthy but not 100% accurate all the time. Not to mention, how can you say it's not fake until an official source confirms it? I feel like you're jumping to conclusions out of bias, as are a lot of people. Like I've already said, I know we just found out about this practically but there are still too many holes and this seems like too complicated of an aspect for a childrens game. I mean for ****s sake, there are hundreds of us debating over this and we can't even decide if they're forms or evolutions. How is a child supposed to figure this stuff out for themselves? |
Considering the extremely large amount of space on the games, I'm assuming a large amount of older Pokemon have Mega Evolutions. I think it's safe to say that ALL STARTER POKEMON will. I'm really hoping that
Roserade Milotic Scizor Houndoom all have Mega Evolutions. They'd all look amazing. |
I hope it's really hard to get a mega stone I wouldn't mind it even being event only this way it's more competetive also if these are the only ones who get mega evols give a good reason why in the story line but if blaziken gets a awakened form than Charizard and sceptile Needs one too

So I decide to wake up early and go on the internet to find out my Lucario is now digging dreadlocks...wut.
But seriously, this is totally awesome! To the "fans" crying out saying their favourite Pokemon are ruined, just don't evolve/change form? Simple as that tbh. I go on Serebii and just get slapped in the face with a huge wave of awesomeness. There are SOME disappointments I have with these though: 1. I was REALLY hoping for Mawile and Absol to have evolutions, and I doubt the possibility of evolving a Mega Pokemon, they kind of seem like a "Final Form" type of thing. Also, WHY IS ABSOL NOT DARK/FAIRY?! They gave it wings even D: 2. Ampharos just looks...I can't even. Like they LITERALLY just drew clouds on it. At least with the other Pokemon they changed the appearances quite a lot, but Amphy? Also, Apart from Zekrom ( I don't usually count legendaries ) Ampharos is the first Electric/Dragon type Pokemon. I've been waiting for a massive dragon breathing electricity, then GameFreak are like "Hey remember Ampharos? Yeeeeeeeah he's kind of Electric/Dragon." ... I'm not against ANY of this new information, I just feel ampharos could've looked a whole lot better. 3. NO DRAGON EEVEE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? //shot Apart from that I'm all for this. I promised I'd play Pokemon X/Y Only using Gen VI Pokemon, but **** that, try and stop me from having Mega(oh god please change the name of the DigimonFreak)Lucario!! Edit: Also, wasn't it confirmed by the Movie that the new Mewtwo was a Speed Forme? Knowing this, and If Mega Pokemon get stat boosts, I'd say they all get higher speed stats. It's a long shot, but all the new Mega Pokemon kind of look more capable of being quick. |

If they need a move to change forme, its a useless gimmick like Meloetta-P and Relic Song. If they change forme at critical HP, its a useless gimmick like Darmanitan-Z. If it requires an item slot, they will be a gimmick that requires a stat spread and movepool like Arceus to be useful. When was the last time someone actually let Genesect hold a drive? Never. But if they're permanent formes like Rotom and such, they have the potential to be extremely toxic to competitive metagames. Like I explained before, for example, Huge Power Mawile will have nearly 100 more attack than Deoxys-A. AKA the metagame will be crafted around which Pokemon receives a new overpowered forme or not. TLDR; this is either gonna be some huge gimmick or will actually destroy any worth Pokemon has at the competitive level. They should have worked on balancing the game we have now, instead of this mess. |

I like all of em equally though. |
The only thing I don't really like about this is that we wont see a Mawile evolution.
And I really want a Mawile evolution |
I'm not afraid of a little shake up. I just hope that if a massive amount of Pokemon get these Mega Evolutions/Formes, I hope a lot of new Pokemon get them too. I don't want the value of Mega Pokemon to take away from my appreciation of the gen 6 pokemon. I really hope these are more common than they are rare, because I feel like some really special Pokemon may become irrelevant if they aren't given a Mega Forme.

I like these three Pokemon! They're all very cute! <3

And it's not as complex as some kids games, I mean, you don't have to really THINK about it, you just...do it. There's not likely going to be a complicated procedure or anything like that. You just...use it, or maybe it's automatic. Think about other games that come out for kids...Kingdom Hearts is far more complicated, and ESPECIALLY LoZ. This isn't too far off the normal lines of Pokemon complexity. @Haza, Well, most likely with the new generation, as with most generations, you'll get most of the older pokemon AFTER you complete the game, and probably further still [like a safari zone that unlocks after certain conditions are met. But yea, I hope Gen VI pokemon get them too... Mega-Pangoro <3 |

Again, Fairy types were mainly introduced to keep a hold on Dragons, and to finally put a good balance on the games. Keep all the types with roughly the same amount of strengths and weaknesses, but, then the Megas are revealed and now the balance is off again. |
Somehow, the artworks for the rabbit and mini raichu look like a fan made.

I like this idea. I am probably the ONLY one, but I think this is an interesting new concept. They look really cool, except Ampharos and Mewtwo, who I am disappointed with, except Ampharos being Dragon-type now. I look forward to using MegaLucario and MegaMawile in battle. The "Mega" part is kind of lame, but I always nickname my pokemon anyways. Personally, I'm crossing my fingers for a MegaNinetales and a MegaAltaria.

I did address that, cost-factor. Things like this, in general, have some sort of severe cost to balance it out. And especially if the conditions are...particular, that in its own right has some sort of balance. I personally like the Life-draining theory that I stated before. You get the mega form, but it drains your pokemon's health. Sort of like how the Life orb increases attack power at the cost of HP. And maybe even have a worse effect in that, you can't heal your pokemon in mega form. Think of that as, their bodies, in that state, reject healing items (at least for HP, I don't think it'd be fair to make them resistant to status healing. It would TOTALLY suck to have a Mega pokemon paralyzed and thus unable to use it's power...] |
Lol, the new Electric fairy type shares simularitys to the megas. Don't ask me how, but they look simalar. I have a feeling its final evo will have a mega.

As for the whole balance thing...some say that Ice is weak against fairy...if that's true than GF is just portraying a image of balance as the whole thing isn't really balanced... |
I was so very excited for this new generation. I thought that with the shift to the 3DS and the lessons they learned from how the fandom reacted to Gen 5 that this would be the absolute-without-a-doubt best generation.
Now all I can say is... f*** Pokemon. This "feature" is a joke. |
Don't get me wrong, and allow me to clarify, I'm not against shaking things up or adding new things to the games, I love it. I just don't like this. (Although I do think MegaAbsol looks cool)
This throws off the newly placed balance and other game mechanics. |

I remember seeing a GIF of Dialga using roar of time and the shockwaves were cycling through the different pokemon game styles...that would be cool. In order to get older gen pokemon, you'd have to go BACK to that generation in-game ;D Even older Zelda games were complex...I mean, Majora's Mask, anyone? And speaking of time travel confusion...Doctor Who confuses its entire fanbase every episode. @Austin You keep saying 'balance, balance, balance' but do you REALLY think pokemon would completely screw things up by NOT balancing it out? They don't make those kinds of mistakes...I highly doubt it's unbalanced like you think it is. |
Who makes the thread without making sure the first post has images? Anyway... they're all boring and ugly.
