I have always wanted evolutions for Mawhile and Absol.... but Not like THIS!
Only the Blazikenite is obtainable only through event, the official site states that all other Mega Stones can be found in the game itself in hidden areas.

It would be kinda annoying to be limited to brand new obtained Pokémon, I'd like to be able to use Mega-Blaziken in battle using my shiny Blaziken.
The official site stated that Mega forms are temporary forms that Many Pokémon transform into only during battle as long they're holding their respective Mega Stone, they revert to normal when the battle ends.
It's not restricted to new Pokémon.

Oh gawd, I keep eyeing up the scans and I am beginning to crush on these damn Megas!
At least a couple of them. Maybe change to a game that I have loved for, hmm, about 16 years, it was just too overwhelming to completely alter the 3-stage evolution. Since, I am not at all into competitive battling, I really don't have a HUGE issue with this. And, who knows, I might begin to actually like them. For now, I feel neutral, which is a major change from yesterday - MAJOR!!!

I will definitely give this megalution thing a fair shake. I just wished they at least called them awaken formes or something, you know, not tacky :p

Overpowered Pokémon digivoled to... Even more powerful, super detailed and unneeded upgraded piece of Tauros that is only in the game to keep our attention!!

If Game Freak wants to impress us so very much, just give Mawile and Absol the evolutions everyone's bawling over. That would tide us over...

Because Pikachu is the mascot gamefreak try over the years to improve it and make it useful without evolve it. And give it mega form is a perfect way to encourage people to use it.

I hope you are right and this generation they will promote Raichu(which i like alot unlike Pikachu which i really hate), but i found it hard to believe...

Soooo basically, A few selected Pokemon can go into Super Saiyan mode via holding it's respective MegaStone.

I personally approve it, as a change/twist. But take out nerf guns through out the time of its release to balance stuff, cause it just sounds OP as it is. Like come on,I can picture MegaLucario using a more powerful beefy Hadouken

Did they speculate how we getting the Stones? If they are rare to border line 99% extinction rare within the game and irl events, then that would be good.

And some of me is just like, some MegaPokemon are some what not necessary. ex, MegaAmphoros, MegaAbsol and MegaMawile should be regular evolution forms (Remove some streamers of random stuff that are like covering them). Mewtwo, Lucario, and Blaziken (Well sort of...meh...mixed about Blazy) are understandable. Cause you know, having Legendary Pokemon, borderline Legendary Pokemon, starter Pokemon and Pokemon who already have a 3 chained evolution stagers given extra evolution stages are apparently illegal to society, life, Mew and Arceus.

But I can't judge and condemn Mega Evolutions. I haven't tried them so My opinion is open other then that. BUT If my team gets their ish pushed in deep and gets wiped out by one or more Megas. I will demand a nerf bomb strike on their souls! Bllarg!

On the other topics. The new Pokemon look really cute...I want to kick them over a football post (I tend to kick plushies and cute, fluffy soft looking things, idk why. Call it a fetish? Don't judge me)

But yeaa I hope we get more leakage from GameFreak/Nintendo/Pokemon

Like I'm imagining the Pokemon that may have Mega Evo's. Mega Marowak, Gyarados, Sudowoodo, Exeggcutor, and Carnivine. And it's like awesome, but a bit painful stingy to see the Pokemon we got attach to...turning into total butt kicking, name taking, bamfs. Visually and appearance for them, I'm excited. Fighting them in battle, not really looking for the black outs I'm going to endure.

Mega Winter is Coming

Ah yes, I forgot about those new bunny thing and Gogoat pre-evo. I don't see a problem with them... I mean, sure more "generic rodents" but I for one love the generic rodents. Bibarel and Furret rock!

Now all I need is the evolution for Chespin and some cat Pokémon and I'm set.

In my opinión, I see mega evolutions like a form to use a special, ultimate or something like that for pokemon (like smash balls in super smash that allows you to use a special move or mode or like in the final fantasy series when you are in trance mode or use an ítem or magic that allows you to use stronger versions of your attacks or different abilities or just increase your stats duing battle).
We don't know yet how it will work, but it may be a good idea, who knows. The thing is if people will get used to it or simply complaint about it. New generation, new rules.

The new pokemon may look cute, but they may also get an evolution that may look scary, epic, strong, etc., also the new rodent of the region may also be able to use that strategy of the focus sash.

And I think, if blaziken is getting a mega, it would be obvious to speculate that the other starters of every region will get a mega to make things fair.

I can't wait to discover more Mega evolutions and how they work in game. Hopefully they'll keep some things secret for a surprise.

I think some mega evos will be kept in secret for the sequels/3rd version or some remake and not all of them will be revealed in x and y(just like they did with kyurrem black and white forms).

I know!! We should have mega evolutions for legendaries!!

Mew could be all tall and more shiny!! And Darkrai could be glowing in purple energy!! Ooh, ooh! Zekrom would have big muscles and Reshiram would have blonde flowing hair!!

Mew has been getting nothing lately. Mew has no mega, has base stats that are lower than MewTwo's. Mew has no special item, and I think has had alot less events than Mewtwo. But releasing megas this way leads me to believe ethier in these versions or the sequel will be megas of these two main legendarys. MegaMew would be awesome tho. I hope they're not making Megas OP tho. They also NEED a posion mega. Posion still needs a boost.

Does anybody even know why gamefreak does this kind of thing?
It's obvious
focus groups
crappy focus groups that THINK they represent the rest of society, but they don't
they don't know anything about what we really want

But this will probably work out well in the end, like it always does.

A lot of people in this thread seem to forget that the Mega Pokemon are an optional feature not a required one. I personally don't like the idea so I won't use it. *shrugs*

I love the new rabbit pokemon bunnelby its kinda cool and looks like one of those cartoon rabbits.



Being the digging pokemon it reminds me of diglett cause its also a digging pokemon so once it evolves (which I'm looking forward to) it may become a Normal/Ground type which is pretty cool.




Dedenne looks like more like Raichu's pre-evo than Pikachu lol. Its fat like the original pikachu you get in Pokemon Yellow. The electric/fairy typing is also pretty cool so it may not be as bad as what some may make it but then again no one knows the base stats of any pokemon yet.



With one more corocoro leak next month I expect some more Megaevolutions, starters evolution, and all the gym leaders announced. So the next may not be as big as this since this is the scoop of the century but it may have just as much info to drive home and sell the games right before the release date.

I just can't wait to hear the music themes for the gyms, gym leader and Lumios, and I also wonder if Mega Evolution also adds extra instruments to the battle music maybe? (doubtful, but it'd be cool)

I definitely love Bunnelby, and given it uses Dig I am hoping its evolution gets a Ground-type, it would bring another unused type combination to the scene, and one I always wanted to see. If it is the early-route rodent, I'd finally want to use an early-route rodent for once because this thing reminds me of cartoon rabbits too like what you said.

And while Dedenne looks like Raichu in some way, it's based on a hamster which I don't believe we have seen a Pokemon based on it yet, now only if they made a dolphin Pokemon. Although the name looks pretty hard to say, I might say it as "dee-den" for now until I hear the official pronunciation.

Also, Skiddo is confirmed to get Sap Sipper as an ability so I'm betting Gogoat will get that ability too. In the trailer, Skiddo was seen using a Grass attack which looks a lot like Leaf Blade to me.

^Oh, I have by referring to him as DAY-DEN, but you could certainly be right. And it's nice to see someone else given Bunnelby some love!

It's name makes me think of Dende from DBZ
I figured it was pronounced Deh-den or Deh-denay
Although, Knowing pokemon, Day-den might be right, or Day-denay

So, Korrina was giving many of us a fighting-type vibe with her kicking pose and althletic aesthetic.
But, I completely missed the badge shape which nearly confirms fighting. Nearly...


So it looks like we have Bug, Rock, Fighting, Electric or the marginal possibility of Steel for gym types.

I have thought about it, but I just don't know if GF will break that mold, but from the looks of it, it certainly could be a possiblity given the mold breaking we have observed thus far. It is odd that Viola's type was revealed while the rest are not. But, I really like the idea of a dual gym with a two-member team. Like Liza and Tate just with different types.

The pokebeach leak, that it mostly confirmed, didn't seem to indicate dual type gyms.

So we'll have to wait and see on this one.
