New Mega Evolutions Discussion Thread

[LeafeonTheVoid]

I think Phoebe would have Mega Sableye if anything.

There was already a mega aggron yet they created mega metagross. Just because one trainer has one pokemon capable of mega evolution doesn't mean they can't create another.

Except Metagross is Steven's Ace, that's why they made it. Absol is Sydney's Ace.

That's because Metagross is Steven's ace. Aggron was just one of his pawns I guess you could say. But why give Shiftry or Cacturne a M-Evo when Sidney's Ace Pokemon already has a M-Evo? It wouldn't make much sense.

 

[Firebrand]

This would be a good point if not for the fact that we're still getting megas during the main story

Honestly, it's pretty likely that Beldum Steven will likely still give us in the postgame will be holding the mega stone, ala Diantha's Ralts. I suppose if someone really wanted to use the Iron Eyesore in game they could just play through the game, trade the Beldum over and restart, because that's probably the only way to do it.

What about PokeBank though? Can't it be transferred through that process?

 

[Murder Doll]

Pokebank doesn't allow items.

Really though I'm on board with what Firebrand said in terms of how we'll get the stone.

 

[LeafeonTheVoid]

As far as MegaGross sure, but I meant as far as having a regular Metagross before post game.

But that's my point R_N. Once you get a MEvo in-game, it's just gg. Megagross, Charizard, Blaziken, doesn't matter they all just squash whatever's in your way at one point. I'd rather get the MEvos post-game for comp, completion, etc.

 

[Leafy Sea Dragon]

Since Mega Metagross has a yellow/golden x, I wonder what the shiny will look like.

Precisely, and...

Yes, but I'm reasonably sure that the conversation is centering around having the Iron Eyesore to steamroll through the game with.

Honestly, I didn't use any megas until I went up against Diantha (mostly because I thought they were consumable items until about Anistar City and then realized that was stupid, and then just because I didn't need to mega evolve). Honestly I just kind of wanted to have a mega of my own go up against Mega Gardevoir, I don't really think I needed to use it.

I imagine Megagross' body color will be Gold and his X will be Silver. Maybe his claws will become black or remain silverish.

I see your point there. I do think you're on point with receiving the mega stone along with Beldum from Steven, it makes the most sense.

 

[Lorde]

Maybe GameFreak just wants to showcase a new Mega Pokemon? Not that I'm entirely convinced that Shiftry will get a Mega in OR/AS.

 

[Pilpulp]

The in-battle screenshot makes Megagross look even cooler. It's a shame some of us won't get a Beldum until postgame.
Even if we trade a Beldum over to ORAS, we might not get the Metagrossite until postgame as well.

Now, I shall wait for Mega Salamence.

Yeah... It wouldn't quite make sense for Mega Metagross's big reveal in-game to be matched by you sending out your Mega Metagross too...

I'm seeing a Diantha Ralts situation happen.

Well then it wouldn't matter if Metagross was given during the main game, would it? One nuke, 2 nukes, its all nukes

Besides not like anyone is forcing you to use the megas.

 

[Blackjack the Titan]

Not getting a beldum until post game (or not getting it's Mega-Stone until then) is something I'm worried about happening. I agree, Mega-Metagross looks too cool to wait to use until after beating the Elite 4.
I'm still going to hold on to the hope of beldum being available in the wild, or transferring one form X/Y (assuming I caught one on those games).

I'm not saying that obtaining Beldum is the problem; it's getting the Metagrossite.
Who knows what changes are made that could hell us obtain Beldum and the Metagrossite pre-E4.

I'd really appreciate it if the Metagrossite was actually obtainable in, idunno, Mossdeep City, or even Meteor Falls.
Well, now to think of it, if Mega Salamence is ever made or revealed, I'd see the Salamencite in Meteor Falls seeing as you catch Bagon there.

 

[HafuTrance]

I'm wondering if Seviper and/or Zangoose will get megas.





I don't think I would be surprised if every single pokemon obtained a mega evolution at some point.

 

[rhynosaurus]

I like that Mega Metagross looks like an amalgam of it's evolutionary line. While some of the Megas pull some features from pre-evolutions, M-Metagross and M-Tyranitar look like really cool fusions of their line. It makes me wonder how insane a Mega Magnezone could be!

I'm hoping Altaria gets a Mega. With it having some Fairy-type moves, I'm hopeful for a retyping, but I'd just be pleased with some stat boosts. I think Dragon/Fairy with Levitate would be amazing.

Mega Torkoal, Mega Wailord, Mega Kekleon, Mega Milotic, and Mega Roserade would be welcome. <3

 

[Chaos Rush]

While I don't have a problem with Mega Metagross in and of itself, I'm actually pretty disappointed that they've basically just spoiled the final boss for us. It would have been a pleasant surprise, like how they kept Mega Gardevoir under wraps in X & Y. But seriously, you don't just freaking spoil the final boss of the game months before release, that's just plain wrong...

Except Gamefreak said not all Pokemon will be able to Mega Evolve.
