[UPD2] It seems more leaks are coming any moment, as another leaker has gotten their hands on Corocoro and is uploading some pages. New, clear, and full versions of the scans we’ve seen have now been revealed, though there seems to be more to go.
[UPD1] The PokémonKorea official site has updated with details on a playable demo for XY coming to Korea. In this, they report about the Mega Evolutions. This means that Mega Evolutions are confirmed, and any other information should be taken as real as well.
This month’s issue of Corcoro has begun leaking. With new Pokémon and more! Keep checking back as we update with translations!
On Mega Evolutions
- “Mega” Pokemon; These new supercharged versions of their previous ones are NOT traditional evolutions or forms, but happen through a “Mega Evolution” process.
- Mega evolutions are ONLY accessible during battle.
- A “Megastone” seems to be a collective term for the held items used to Mega-evolve each Pokémon. In the case of Blaziken, its Megastone is called “Blazikenite”.
- One of the gym leaders, Coruni, hold the key to these new Mega-lutions.
- Mega Pokémon have stat changes: Lucario gets an Attack stat boost, whilst Absol gets a boost to both Attack/Speed.
- Unknown what the stat changes for other Mega Pokémon are.
- Mega evolutions seem to awakened temporarily in battle by holding a megastone for some Pokémon.
Getting ‘Mega’ versions are:
- Blaziken (Fire/Fighting, ability: Speed Boost)
- Lucario (Steel/Fighting, ability: Adaptability)
- Ampharos (Electric/DRAGON, ability: Mold Breaker)
- Mawile (Steel/Fairy, ability:Huge Power)
- Mewtwo (Psychic, ability: Insomnia)
- Absol (Dark, ability:Magic Bounce)
- Not all Pokemon will get Mega versions.
More could be revealed!
New Pokémon, Miscellaneous
- Meekuru, a Grass-type Gogoat prevolution has Sap Sipper for ability.
- Horubii, a Normal-type rabbit-ish Pokémon, known as the “Digging” Pokémon has a new ability called “Cheek Pouch,” or Pickup.
- Dedenne, an Electric/Fairy-type Pokémon which is the “Antennae” Pokémon, has a new ability called “Cheek Pouch,” or Pickup.
- Speed Boost Torchic will be distributed with it’s “Mega Stone”; This Speed Boost Torchic with “Blazikenite” Distribution starts from the release date(October 12th) to January 15th, 2014.
- Although cut off, what seems to be Super Training is mentioned! As previous leaks have pointed at, completing these games seems to raise Effort Values for the Pokémon that participate.
- Also mentioned is the Master Tower, which has a connection to Mega Pokémon.
Also confirmed is that next month’s Corocoro is to show even more Mega Evolutions, alongside an updated type chart to show off Fairy-type.

I am so gullible.
I really want this to be fake
God, I really hope this is fake.
Is like, Pokémon has officially became Digimon .-.
Mega versions of previous pokémon, seriously?
Nothing wrong with Digimon… Better than Pokemon in terms of TV show.
Yes, I totally agree, I’m very fond of Digimon actually. But I don’t like the idea of Pokémon resembling Digimon…
NOPE. YOU SIR ARE DONE
I really hate the idea of ‘mega evolution’ it just doesn’t fit in with pokemon at all! more digimon kind of thing… if this turn out to be true i’m very disappointed
If this is real, it´s a lot like the X-Anitboy from the Digimon franchise
I have noticed this generation takes some of what Digimon did… Hmmm…
WAIT. Didn’t Pokemon confirm that Mewtwo had a new form. Awakened Mewtwo was its new form. Pokemon never said that Mewtwo will be evolving. It was a form change. Now this scan is truly fake. Also, if you see in the Movie Mewtwo switches its form. So, now this scan is 100% Fake. (This is the same post on JungleTalk, I’m just putting the info here)
True…
Not to mention that the depicted Gogoat pre-evolution is identical to some fan art that I saw before.
Yea, let me go search Deviantart really quick!
i saw that fan art too
But they also showed the pre-evolution in one of the trailers, which is where people were making the fan art from.
It’s implied that they are not proper evos. And that they’ll transform in battle
Someone out there is laughing their butt off, whether it’s a Gamefreak/Nintendo employee or not has yet to be determined.
OMG 4the evolution line Mega evolution that’s so awesome
Blaziken Lucario Ampharos and Absol all evolve through an evolution called Mega evolution this is the scoop of the century the Corocoro was talking about and OMG it’s so awesome
It is deemed fake. Sorry.
How do you know?
Third you mean. Basic, 1st Evo and 2nd Evo. Now the 3rd Evo also called megaevolution
no it’s 4th because i said evolution line not just evolution
Mega evolutions confirmed?
Maybe some pokemon have awakened forms ??
Maybe. But as I stated below. Mewtwo got a form change not a evolution.
True!! If it is true I just hope not every 3rd stage pokemon gets a Megaevolution
Yea! Yet, if it is really it seems all starters will have it! Also, the scans are to early.
Yea just a tad, if it is fake someone put a lot of work into this haha.
That’s true.
MegaMewtwo? I thought it was already called Awakened Forme Mewtwo??
People thought fairy type was fake too and it turned out to be true.
Yea. But no-body rumored “Mega” Pokemon. :/ Yet, if you read my comment below. You will know why it is fake.
Maybe mega evolution happens when a pokemon reaches Lv 100… Could be way off but just a thought
It is not needed. Pokemon now just seems like Digimon.
as i said in the previous thread: The pictures don’t match up if you look at them… in the pic with the
gogoat pre evo and the rodent and bunny, you see “mega-absols”‘s
paws…. but it was in the top section of the page.Plus there is a pic
of game play that they didn’t show, but why? Yet another reason it is
fake.
You also see his head next to the gym leader on the gym leader scan. If that doesn’t scream fake, corocoro sure folds in strange ways.
Wow… There can’t be TWO pages… One showing gameplay.. and one showing the Mega Evolutions….
They normally have six… we’ll probably be getting more, since this is the “scoop of the century”
If this is real, that means they can Mega Evolve backwards since in Mewtwo Prologue episode, Mewtwo switches back and forth.
so apparently we have a gym leader that is the key to understanding mega-evolutions? i’m calling this super fake… Nice try though
🙂
As someone is Smogon mentioned, the Rat and the Rabbit correspond with the article we had a while back: http://pokejungle.net/2013/07/17/speculation-14-new-xy-pokemon-revealed/
Ugh I hate to say it but this is just plain awful! Messing with starter evos and chucking in random forms is just plain wrong. This is really bad imo why couldn’t they have just gave us that absol and Mawile and Absol evos?! The only thing good about this is the new cute pokemon revealed look awesome but they’re overshadowed by this awful mega rubbish 🙁
Check out my comment below. You will know this scan is 100% Fake. Its about Mewtwo. 😉
Mawile, Digivolve to… MEGAMAWILE!
If this is fake, the person who made this, well lets just say (again) no jury would convict me
IDK….. the more images that show up, the more I’m inclined to believe it’s real. Either way I don’t think I’ll be disappointed.
Now that I think about it, the creators would never do something as illogical as this. As somebody mentioned below, it was already confirmed that Mewtwo is an Awakened form and it was demonstrated as such in the movie. Giving one of the starters a Megaevolution would also disrupt the continuity of the series. They would have to give Megaevolutions to every single starter to balance it out.
The fact that they called Mewtwo new form a form change before does not mean this scan is certainly fake. Mega-evolution des seem to be somewhere between form change and evolution. I still have my doubts, but we can’t say for sure it’s fake.
just checked serebii again… A mega stone held by a torchic so it becomes a mega blaziken??? nice try
BTW it is even more fake. The 3D Model in this image is off. Also, the text box is wrong.
this might actually be real
Also, the corocoro scans aren’t normally this zoomed in and blurry c:
Maybe the leaker got so excited about the possibility of MegaPokemon they got all flustered and couldn’t stop shaking form excitement/shock :’)
BTW, the background is from Grants Gym 😉
I do hope these are fake, but we sure are all gonna feel stupid if they’re real…
Does it say that she is Rock Type? She looks Fighting Type to me.
Grant has never been confirmed as a Rock-type gym leader…also, the scans are 100% confirmed
Yea. I saw from Serebii. Now Pokemon is Digimon.
