- Altaria-M has +Atk
- Lopunny-M has +Atk & +SpA
- Salamence-M has +Def

So Mega Altaria's Dragon Dance with Return, Earthquake, and Outrage?

 

[Bguy7]

Oh i know ahahah it's my fave dragon so to hear it described as 'the worst dragon' for years made me sad. So i will take great pleasure in moonblasting them into oblivion ahahah

You are an evil, evil person...

If there's a mega under altaria i'm hoping for delcatty to see if they managed to do something

anything


anything at all

to make it useful.


Also because Buneary/Skitty were paired in BW2 for some reason

I think Salamence-M is based on the Wu-Tang Clan logo

drop Outrage for Cotton Guard for maximum new meta

1- Mega Altaria: Looks nice, good design like everyone expected.
2- Mega Lopunny: Ok i guess but it doesn't really screams out 'Mega' to me.
3- Mega Salamence: Can't really give an opinion untill i see the in game model.

Bit disappointed with the 'scoop' and don't really care for the pikachus.

What the **** did they just do to Salamence... Worst Mega Evolution so far, by far. Anyway, i don't care, Salamence already looks stupid in its normal state.

Still waiting for mega Flygon, Camerupt and Sharpedo. PLEASE Game Freak make it hapen i beg you.

There's gotta be a mega under altaria!!! I NEED IT. Delcatty would be interesting to see, but I don't think there's much hope for it at all, evwn if they do give it a mega.

Dang, I wanted pixilate/Hyper voice Altaria... I guess it still works, but it's kind of disappointing. Looking at them side-by-side it almost looks like Lopunny got Altaria's stat boosts.

Mega Salamence getting Aerilate scares me.

If it gets a noticeable speed increase from its mega, I imagine the thing is going to have a big impact on the metagame.

In any case, I really hope Mega Hydreigon ends up being a total beast, considering how good Mega Metagross and Salamence are compared to Tyranitar and Garchomp, who were known to be considerably better then those two competitively prior to getting megas.

I think that either Pokebeach mixed up the stat boosts of Megas Altaria and Lopunny or both of those Pokemon have become more versatile in their fighting arsenal.

True but i have great hair so it's ok , I have slowly been developing my Adorable Army for years and now it has finally come together Mwahahaha Fly my fairies FLY!

No but seriously i am soo pumped for Mega Buns and Mega Taria that i can't wait

 

[tictactucrac]

Mega Salamence looks like a take-off runway for Bagons. It makes sense lol. Hideous.

You just confirmed every convoluted conspiracy theory about Fairy-Types that I've made up over the past year. They want to take over the world!

Aside from Lopunny, those boosts seem a bit odd as the two Pokémon play differently from what those stats provide, but it could be useful to both as Salamence wouldn't mind the Def boost (particularly since with Intimidate, it increases its bulk even more) while Altaria would love having a stronger Return/Double-Edge.

Yes and to do it we will blow up the moon! .... wait what do you mean that's where we draw our power from? Why did nobody tell me this sooner? ... ok so how about we just murder a couple of dragons and call it a day ...... running an evil empire is hard

 

[Aetius]

I'm really loving these mega evos.

M.Altaria: adorable design and cool secondary typing, which suits it considering its cutesy appearance, so no surprise here.
We all kinda expected for it to come sooner or later.

M.Lopunny: Didn't see this one coming....
At least his types combination is a new one and its ability is good.

M.Salamence: While he looks a bit strange, I'm loving this draconic creature.
His new ability is awesome and it will finally give it a way to hit hard with flying type moves.

Are such theories common on the internet? I thought that I came up with them all myself, but you're just repeating everything I've come up with.

 

[Rakurai]

Mega Salamence strikes me as a dragon Fairy types are not going to want to mess with if it's packing a Dragon Dance boost.

The fact that it can make use of Aerilate boosted Return means it actually has a strong offensive option against them now, and I don't think any of them aside from Intimidate Granbull and Mega Mawile can really threaten it in that state.

Aerilate Double Edge seems interesting if suicidal
