I love some Megas, and the idea that you only get ONE of these extra powerful mons on your team. Imagine if you had to choose Salamance OR Garchomp instead of having a whole team of Uber-Dragons.
I actually want that as a Mega Evolution :3!

I got some mechanic changes info for you guys. This is from a Japanese interview about X & Y. The translated post is on Bulbagarden (can't post the link now)

1. Pokémon gain experience even when the opposing wild Pokémon is caught. (This was stated in another interview.)
2. Sky Battles are limited to Flying-type Pokémon and those with the Levitate ability (as previously confirmed). Some moves can't be used.
3. There is an adjustment to the inheritence system of breeding.
4. Ghost-type Pokemon can freely escape from battle without being influenced by Shadow Tag. (The official website mentioned trapping moves.)
5. The item Exp.Share will revert to Exp.All as in Generation I, where when one Pokémon holding this item participates in battle, all other Pokémon in the team receive experience as well. Unlike in Generation I, the experience is not split but rather received by all Pokémon. This means that the participating Pokemon receive 100% experience, while non-participating Pokémon receive 50% experience.
6. When distributing new moves and abilities, priority was given to new Pokémon.
7. The CGI style is different from that of Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Battle Revolution, because those games were supposed to emulate "realism within fantasy". Since the handheld Pokémon series is supposed to be accessible to everyone, battles were made "cuter".
8. The standard selection process for Pokémon to be Mega-Evolvable is based on three points: visual looks, popularity and game balance.
9. The power-up of Mega-Evolved Pokemon is meant to elevate them to the class of legendary Pokémon, hence the restriction of only one Pokémon being allowed to hold a Mega Stone during battles.
10. The timing to Mega-Evolve is selectable.

Most of it is already known, but there's some interesting info there like Megas being as strong as Legendaries, so this is not a simple form change.

So it is based on popularity...and looks. Now I wonder how having Mega Mewtwo (a legendary) will balance things out...unless the purpose of MegaMewtwo is for it to rival Arceus or BW Kyurem formes.

Yeah, I imagine Mewtwo wouldn't get a boost as big as the normal pokemon since he's already legendary, but even with a small boost Mewtwo could end being the strongest Uber. Also Im actually kinda sad that these pokemon will be that powerful, I don't want to see most of them go to Ubers <--(Doesn't like Ubers)

Well Blaziken and Mewtwo were Ubers last generation so they won't be going anywhere but moving around in the tier itself to being Uber amongst Uber...
Also remember not all legendary level Pokemon are Uber...

Yeah I understand some of them won't be Uber like MegaCharizard. What I'm not sure of its what level of legendary they mean cause there is a significant difference between legendaries like Jirachi and legendaries like Zekrom (stat wise).

Im really hoping Sceptile and Swampert get mega evolutions, it doesn't seem fair if only Blaziken gets one. Plus they could make Sceptile part dragon, and that would be gloooorius!

I agree they should give Sceptile the Dragon typing.

I think Absol and Mawile may be at the low end (600) while Blaziken, the Kanto starters and Ampharos will be at the higher end (680) Lucario maybe 670 as to reflect the stages they've had in evolution.

Yeah i feel like those two are gonna get the short end of the stick, but i also feel like Venasaur will join them. Something tells me the stat boost wont be so good for it, which is a shame as Venasaur is my fav Kanto starter (Team Bulbasaur!!!!!!!)

I've got to say that originally I didn't like the idea of megalutions but it is growing on me, but I'm just wondering that because I'm sure that I've read somewhere that mega evolutions are something unique to kalos (obviously we know that true in relation to the games and anime up till now) but does this mean that they may not be in gen VII?

I really don't see how it would help if Sceptile became part dragon-type. It'd just add a few additional weaknesses to it, such as fairy and dragon. Plus, it would become four-times weak to ice. Ice-type Pokémon and attacks may not be used very often in competive play, but they're still there. ): If Sceptile were to get a MegaEvolution, I would like it if they kept its type the way it was. Also, I would like to see them raise its Attack and Speed, if possible. That way, it would be easier for us to use it as a sweeper. It'd be nice if they increased its defensive stats a little as well.

Well Swampert has a 4x weakness and is the 2nd most used of the Hoenn starters...
Also it being part Dragon will remove Fire as a weakness as well as give it additional STAB, and we all know Sceptile has a lot of Dragon moves.

I thought of a good Mega Evolution however it's unlikely to happen...MegaUnown! It can get a new move that only appears during MegaEvolution that is effective against all types...

Yeah that makes sense, id just love to see sceptile with a more dragon style, heck id even think grass-flying would be pretty cool, just to spice it up a bit. I've always thought that it had a sort of wind aspect to it, and i think it would be pretty unique. But like you said, ice will destroy it, but its still fun to speculate. But I think you're right that if Sceptile's mega evo kept its type, got some stat boosts, maybe a new ability, and a cool design that would be best.

Grass/Flying sounds worse than Grass/Dragon imo.
Maybe it'll have an ability symbolising it's role as a forest guardian. Maybe something like- Nature's Blessings which multiplies the power of grass,bug,and ground moves by 1.5 (no 'in a pinch' needed).

That sounds pretty cool, and im just talking in purely a design standpoint for the typing, grass/flying would be abysmal. I stand my ground with grass/dragon though, I mean its got some dragon moves already, and the mega evo makes it completely optional for those who prefer it with the pure grass typing. That ability sounds really good though, but this is assuming we get a mega sceptile and swampert in the first place. There are some pretty cool designs floating around

I imagine the seeds on Sceptile's back will bloom in it's Mega Evolution. Also it's blades of grass will proably look more sword like and become longer...maybe taking the shape of a schimitar.
It's harder to imagine a MegaSwampert...maybe a darker shade of blue and it's fin's color becoming red...and growing more taller and having larger fins...

I want to see how Mega Torterra will look like...hopefully it'll be bigger with a taller mountain. Maybe have an ability like Solid Rock reducing the damage it'll get from SE moves...specifically Ice moves.

If MegaSwampert were to be created,
it should have Sap Sipper,
it doesn't make sense at first,
but it can give Swampert an advantage over Grass moves.
Sheer Force, Huge Power are great for this bulky monster as well! :D

If Sceptile ever got a MegaEvolution, I would like it to have an ability that would make it easier for it to win more battles. One ability that could truly help this Pokémon is Moxie. Moxie would eliminate the need for it to use Swords Dance, as its Attack would be raised automatically every time it takes out an opposing Pokémon. Intimidate could work, too. This would lower the strength of your opponent's physical attackers, which would give it a chance to endure some extra punches and kicks.

If Swampert were to have a Mega form, then I'd like its ability to be Sand Stream. Swampert has an extreme amount of bulk, but unfortunately, its popularity was dropped as soon as Pokémon Black and White were introduced. If it ever got access to Sand Stream, then its popularity would rise back up in an instant. I'm sure.

I also see Swampert getting sand stream. Or maybe Drizzle. Or maybe Swift Swim (which will make it great in a rain team!).
Sap sipper will instantly make Swampert go up in tier! It's 4x weakness is proably it's most major hindrance and will open up one to using more moves as it wouldn't need to have an ice move to finish off Grass Pokemon as it's ability will remove it.

Evee still hasn't gotten several type evolutions yet: steel, ground, poison, rock, ghost, flying, dragon, or fighting evolution, koff~

I'd like to see if they can do three this time around instead of just two. I'd like to see what they'd call a poisonous evee. Toxeon? Seepeon? Terreon. I think I found it. Terror + eon. That sounds good, right, koffi~

Make the Mega Eevee all 120 in stats, that way Mega Eevee will not 'steal the spotlight' of his evos.

I think they should just give each Eeveelution a Mega...or at the original 3 for classical reference sake. Maybe the Mega Kanto Eeveelutions will look similar to Entei, Suicune, and Raikou...as a reference to the fan theory that those three are revived Eeveelutions...

If Eevee were to get a MegaEvolution, then I'd want it to have longer legs, bigger eyes, and shorter ears. This would make it look a lot cuter, in my opinion. I would want its ability to be either Serene Grace, Natural Cure, or Magic Guard. Color Change could work, too. This would allow it to change its type depending on the move that the opponent uses on it. As for its stats, I would have to ditto Fiery Dash on this. It would be great if they made all of its stats one-twenty.
