I....what. Regular Mawile has 85 base attack. With huge power thats the equivalent of like 220 base attack (590 total attack). WHAT. I really hope its mega form has lowered attack.

Like..the designs are nice and the concept is...okay....but if its just an excuse to make certain Pokemon overpowered...no...I'm not behind that. Adaptability + Fighting STAB...really Gamefreak?

I'm interested to see how this plays out, but I'm also question what the motive behind this was. It's a strange decision, but I hope it turns out well.

The prefix is awful though. If that's actually in the names I'll be nicknaming for sure...

Yeah, I still remember that ugly flower owl...we got fooled into believe was real last gen...

I hope they're real though.
After hearing that they are battle only and need items to do so fan seem to have calmed down somewhat. Hopefully this will turn out like the Gen V haters.

I'm looking forward to seeing a Mega Sceptile...

I'm guessing they'll have a rather certain jacked up stat and then another very low stat for something else, to try and balance them out. I think it's still too early to decided whether or not they'll be overpowered.

If anyone is deserving of a Megalution, it should be this guy.

It could Mega evolve into a Giant skeleton whale with the Water/Ghost typing...

So I guess the megas are pseudo s

I don't think all the Mega stages will be fan favorites...now if so then Rayquaza should get one as it got voted the favorite mascot back in Gen V...


I highly doubt Legendaries will get mega evolutions.
And I'm glad...Lucario will still be a dragonslayer then.

These new Megas might also have expanded movesets, of course, almost all pokemon will, aside from the choice few...Since they'll of course be releasing new moves, and new tms.
I wonder what moves will be TM and what moves will be Move Tutor...but that's a different thing.

Back to the point at hand will the movesets be expanded beyond the introduction of new moves for megas. They're supposed to be powerful versions, so why not?

And I just noticed the new thing about Mid-Battle transformations. I don't really think burst mode, as in essence, all digivolutions are pretty much mid battle in the anime.
Now, it's more like the games, where normally you can only digivolve at the farm. But, you have Evolution items that allow you to temporarily digivolve in the middle of a battle. That's what it's copying.

So then, what will be the triggers? How will these items work? Will it be some sort of, Super Saiyan transformation, triggering at critical? Or do you have to have the stone in your item bag and USE it on the pokemon? What then, will the stone be a one-shot item, or will it be continuous use? Will the stones all be specialized, working only for that species of pokemon? Or do you just need one stone for all the ones capable of Mega-Evolving?

I...don't really know how to feel about this. I'm not hating on Gen 6 instantly just for this but...It...seems....weird...
Umm. Seriously, I don't know how to react to this. As long as they can activate just for battle or something like that, I'm fine with it.

But maybe all this is related to the DNA at the logos...Seems the game will focus on splicing.

Eh, some of them grew on me pretty quickly now.

Can't be too sure actually. Mewtwo got a mega-evolution it seems.

That doesn't even look like a DNA symbol... it's just a funky shape - not a double helix.

That is not just a "funky shape". Watch the eshop trailer. It is very clearly the same symbol that is featured in the Japanese game logos.

Actually they're more like mutations, splicing is more of what happened with Kyurem's formes.

I think Rowan should appear this generation as he's the evolution expert...this sounds like something he could investigate, maybe he appears post game and asks to see one of the Megaevolutions and gives us a rare item for each one we show him.

L0RD G3NGAR August 8th, 2013 11:13 AM

Mega Mew. Mew needs to be stronger.

Austin1395 August 8th, 2013 11:15 AM

Pokejungle confirms the trademark for "Mega Evolution". No confirmation for anything from the X/Y official site.

If you're suggesting that they're gonna be Shuckle 2.0s, then that really makes this whole big scoop rather pointless. Therefore I don't agree.

Anyways has this confirmed by an official source? Serebii is reliable, but not perfect or official.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 8th, 2013 11:16 AM

Mega Deoxys...one for each of it's formes...or just one for it's Normal forme...

L0RD G3NGAR August 8th, 2013 11:17 AM

Tho not believing it until one apears in a trailer. This could also mean if some pokemon are getting megas we might reach into the 900's maybe 1000's

Mewtwo could very well be the exception, due to his Origin. Depending on how and what mega-evolution is depicted as, it could be some sort of Genetic alteration thing. Sort of like the Rage devices, but bigger. Of course, if that's how it is, there will be one more legendary that would be more likely to get a mega form, the already Shapeshifting Deoxys.

There might be a select few Legendaries, maybe one or two from each gen? Who knows...

Everyone says it's copying digimon. I think it's more like DBZ. Fully Evolved pokemon going Super Poké.

No official source has yet confirmed this. We probably won't get an official confirmation, or denial, from an official source until around the 12th.

I really wish this can happen:

Megastones better be in game. And not just some events.

Genesect is also another one that's likely to get one due to it's being revived and having been created as the ultimate weapon...however they didn't show it having one in the movie so chances are Genesect doesn't have one...

Mew also can get one. Maybe Eevee get's a Mega evolution only it turns dragon like (dragons are seen as the ultimate creature only behind the Quilin aka what Arceus is based off) and has the dragon typing and the ability multiscale.
