Well I would really want a MegaPorygonZ too, if they ever make one perhaps that will be a second chance to put him in the Anime... But who am I kidding it probably won't happen :|
Poor Porygon, still framed by Pikachu.
But yeah, Mega PorygonZ would be a heck of a sight, it'd probably also be completely bonkers.

I'd prefer for Male Combee to get an evolution as a counter part to Vespiquen, otherwise a male Combee is just not going to get you anywhere. Maybe it doesn't have to be as strong as Vespiquen with it being the Queen Bee but it would be nice to see some sort of alternate evolution for the male forme.

I like that a lot actually. I mean, when it comes to bees it makes sense that the male one wouldn't have a traditional evolution, but giving it a Mega Evolution would at least make it not totally useless as it is currently. As far as an appearance for it though I can't really imagine it. All the other ones kind of look...right (if that's even a good description) to me, but a just giant honeycomb shaped bee would just be awkward =P

Mawile has more to hinder it than just Fairy Priority. If Fairy attacks are pretty much all Special attacks then huge Power is an epic waste on her for that point. She'd only benefit from her Steel attacks mostly and her Dark attacks.

I'm sure Gf will try to even out Fairy type...it's not like the pre Gen IV which were either dominantly special or physical which caused some of the types in Gen IV to be dominantly one or the other until Gen V.

However if it is dominantly special it'll explain why they made an eeveelution Fairy xD.

That is a fair point...Fairy does sound like it will be Special and Stat heavy like Psychic types.

I agree with you! Lucario is my favorite Fighting type, because of its large versatality, amazing stats and Steel mono-type (Steel is my third favorite type ever!) but I think it's powerful enough.
It doesn't need an upgrade at things it already excells at! I personally want a Bibarel and Furret mega evolution. They would look amazing!

Glow Punch will surely be a physical move. However, it may actually not be a Fairy move although it should.

Yet after the switch, Flareon who is a Physical attacker has next to no really useful Physical Fire attacks due to a lack of them even existing. Which is my point with Fairy Type. We may get some, but if Mawile doesn't get any, Huge Power is wasted on her as a Fairy.

Yeah, Flareon is one of those who hasn't benefited even after the split despite it's high attack stat...damn GF give it some Physical moves!

Well it'll still help it's steel attacks...it wouldn't be any worse than strong duel types which have mostly moves of one type but not of the other cough Gyarados cough.

I agree that Fairy will end up being special heavy.

And, for whatever reason, I'm not worried about Mawile's movepool regarding STAB Fairy moves. I can picture it learning something like Swift Strike(made up move of mine), which could be the Fairy-type equivalent of Quick Attack. One can dream, but the other guy would just wait to see what happens.

Also, yeah, there's even Glow Punch. That move's typing is debatable though.

Furret...may not be the most powerful, but it is one of the most versatile, with an EXTREMELY huge movepool.

Mawile can learn punch moves irc so if Glow punch is a Fairy move after all than it'll benefit it somewhat.

I think all the Rodents are. For example Watchog can learn ground moves, poison moves, dark moves, and I think even water moves...

That's not a rodent thing, that's a Normal-type thing. Normal types have the largest movepools although they don't usually benefit because of the lack of STAB. But there are the ones with the ability Normalize, which is infinitely useful.
WHICH, MegaFurret should have.

That's true, normal are very versatile...if only the type was super effective against something...maybe Fairy? I mean it's weak against one type but not strong against anything...seems unfair...

Don't forget it's also immune to a type, that's ironically immune to it, Ghost.
I doubt it will ever be supereffective against anything, as Normal..doesn't really lead to anything like Supereffectiveness. What would be weak to normal and make sense? Although, for all we know, normal might end up being expanded. Maybe most solely normal types could have Fairy tagged on?

One weakness is better than 2 or 3, plus it has 1 immunity, basically, Normal type, is supposed to be the Mario of types, versatile and balanced, a midpoint, not too strong, but not too weak either.

Uh huh, agree with this. Normal is my second favorite type because of those reasons.

And I hope Furret gets a mega form! I can totally imagine it! ...oh great, now I have to draw it.

Well, they do learn those moves because many rodents can be aquatic, have nasty bites, etc, so it's just as much about what type of animal they're based on as it is typing.

And I'd expect a lot of our old Normal types to become Fairy or at least part Fairy.

We still have to see how the fairy type will change battling in pokemon; we know it's super effective agaisnt dragons, but only that; we still have to see if it's super effective agaisnt other types, the weakness, immunities and resistances it has.

And I'm starting to grow on mega evolutions I don't think I'll use them but I'm getting used to them, even though blaziken is unnecessary it's already powerful enough with speed boost.

I'm starting to feel like Mega Evolution is the best thing to happen to the franchise in a while... and I'm completely receptive of the Fairy type now. I'm 100% satisfied with everything that is happening... except for Talonflame's name... that is still unacceptable.

It's not any worse than many Gen V pokemon, like Ducklett and Swanna...

Yes, Ducklett was a horrible name... I barely remember it because it's an over all stupid Pokemon/name anyway. Swanna is good though. But Talonflame? That takes the cake for stupidity! Haha.

Mega Talonflame would sound cool though! xD

Talonflame is horrid. Durant is another one...Gen V had way too many, at least Gen VI only has Talonflame...so far. Let's hope it stays minimal.

Not the biggest fan of most of the mega evolutions.
Absol was bad ass enough, but the MegaAbsol looks a bit... weird...
And attack twice, are you kidding me, two doubble edges in one turn!
The others look good and not to overpowerd.
