This is unlike most of the rumors we cover, because this is speculation based on trademark sleuthing that our good friend at AAPF did. There was no 2ch/4chan poster claiming to have insider information, no leak, etc. Instead we have a list of names which seem to correlate to what Pokémon may get Mega Evolutions and will be used in Pokémon X & Pokémon Y marketing, promotions, and/or merchandise. This list is speculative and the Pokémon listed may not get Mega Evolutions. As such, it is being marked as a RUMOR post which always means you should assume false until proven true and simply use it as a means to spark discussion with your fellow Junglers and PokéFans 🙂 Worth noting that the second Mega Evolution trailer featured Gyrados and Tyranitar (seen in the list below) AS WELL AS Hydreigon, Golurk, and Salamance… in case it’s a hint.
Pokémon who might get a Mega Evolution:
- Charizard
- Blastoise
- Gengar
- Pinsir
- Jynx
- Gyarados
- Aerodactyl
- Scizor (Already confirmed unofficially)
- Houndoom
- Tyranitar
- Heracross
- Gardevoir
- Medicham
- Banette
- Aggron
- Latias/Latios
- Abomasnow
Lots to talk about, huh?! Some fan favorites such as Gengar and Pinsir, as well as some under-appreciated Pokémon such as Abomasnow. Remember these Pokémon could get new typings or abilities if they do get a Mega Evolution. Exciting!!

No gen 5 pokemon, that’s odd.
Golurk. It’s not on the list but it was in the blurb at the beginning of the article.
Yeah I must have missed it when I was reading
Hydregion too
Guys, prevent Gen 1 starter Mega evolution discrimination. Let’s give Venusaur a megaevolution
Donate 2000 Pokédollars now and we at Team Flare make sure we do what we can to give every Pokémon an equal treatment!
Or else PETA will track you down until you get ur ass caught.
Isn’t Team Plasma = PETA ?
Yes, exactly! XD
Team Plasma= PETA?
I never knew that LOL
Yeah, whatsup with that. DISCRIMINATION
“Confirmed unofficially” lol
I think
-If Gardevoir gets one, then so should Gallade. I will not accept it if one gets one and not the other.
-Latios and Latios will end up looking more like their beta art.
-Banette needs a regular evolution.
-Golurk needs armor and a sword and shield.
btw i didn’t get that what do they mean by confirmed unofficially??
Hiro said there was a MegaScizor. We can trust Hiro so it is “confirmed”, but GF hasn’t revealed it, so it’s unofficial”.
No, we can’t trust Hiro. His previous leak Partner from Gen. V said Hiro doesn’t have any insider info this time other than Sylveon, Xerneas, and Yveltal’s types. Hiro is just riding on the coattails of his previous fame. If he had, don’t you think he would have leaked Mega Evolutions earlier, since he was able to leak the entire Dex last time?
He has tons of information, but he doesn’t reveal it just because he don’t wants to. That’s what he says on histwitter and ask.
That seems like an excuse. And like i said, his leak Partner from G5 said he doesn’t know anything about thig Gen. Are you going to ignore what a guy involved in a real leak said?
He even accused PokéBeach’s leak from having fake info. Did you see anything until now being dismissed? The closest we have is XY having two rivals, but we can perfectly assume that it’s because he played before February, and they could have added two more rivals since then, or that the leaker didn’t know about the other two, since a beta tester only receives specific parts of the game to test, and doesn’t have access to the full game.
Correction, it was actually a close friend of his, but I don’t remember if it was the same guy involved in the G5 leaks.
Good speculation, I agree with you 100%.
Oh YESSSS please MegaGallade please he’s my favorite Pokemon after Empoleon
If Gyarados gets a Mega Evolution, so should Milotic, they’re like counterparts to each other. Gyarados is destructive, and Milotic is soothing.
Plus, I have a strong feeling Milotic will be Water/Fairy, and will be daul typed, just like Gyarados.
Yes! That sounds amazing. If in fact Milotic or Gyarados for that matter do get Mega-Evolution’s I can see them both being duel-typed and going ballistic.
Love those ideas. Here is my take on those ideas. LOL
I think
-If Gardevoir get’s a Mega-Evolution, then Gallade should receive one too.
-Latios and Latias should not look like their beta-arts for a number of reasons: one, Latios doesn’t have a beta-art only Latias, two, their beta-arts would be considered a rip-off and the haters are going to hate. Personally, I think we should give Game Freak as much chances as possible.
-Banette needs a regular evolution AND a Mega-Evolution to top it off.
-Golurk’s Mega-Evolution needs to look somewhat like a knight with a dragon that can attack also but using it’s own move-pool and it’s base stat is 288 with all it’s stats being 48.
a mega gyarados SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
Yessss and MegaGyarados Water/Dragon as it should have been
Mega Houndoom? Nintendo had me at that. Please take my money.
mega jynx…….. NICKI MINAJ IS NOW A POKEMON!
Oh, god, why?!?!?!
LOL, that is really funny hahaha, goood one. xDD
thank you my friend everyone was thinking it
guess…I got a bit late lol^^;
XD
So damn true.
I can already see Mega Jynx’s move “U a stoopid Ho” which makes the enemy pokemon forget to obey it’s trainer’s commands for a round or two LOL Psychic type attack of course LOL
That’s not even a bad idea for a move.
This is canon.
LOL. That would be considered racism by the Western people, us- and =poor Jynx would have to change again. I think people should just forget that racism is even a word and consider the happy things in life but, guess everything can’t go the way I want them too. 😀
The first Jynx WAs Racist… Can’t forget that.. that’s a childish way to think of it in all seriousness.. -_-
Although I long forgot about it and You brought it up
I’m sorry to have brought up such a childish way of thinking but alas, there are very sensitive people out there and as much as I agree with your statement, not everyone is like you or even think like you. You have to understand reality first to understand what I wrote up there. The first Jynx was racist and as long as people have it in their minds, it always be racist because that’s who people are.
Wow i’m so glad I can reply anonymously cause now I don’t have to make an account to tell you that your an absolute moron for posting this. Are you retarted or something? I honestly get that vibe along with that super weeaboo teenage boygirl vibe when you can’t tell the gender difference because of words like “alas”.
Good to know. xD
Uh no, Jynx was never racist. She was based on a kind of Japanese fashion that was very popular at the time. Stupid dumb Western people just saw her and assumed she was racist. The whole situation was borne of white guilt and political correctness finding things in a PERFECTLY INNOCENT CHILDREN’S SERIES and trying to cover up a racism that never existed.
Actually, if you’re going on the basis that Jynx was designed after the Ganguro fashion style, she’s still racist. that fashion style was brought about as a way of mimicking african american stereotypes as portrayed in western/american films of the early 90’s. however, I maintain that Jynx is in fact, not racist, as she is actually based on the Japanese folklore of Yama Uba,

Turn off the sound of pokemon and watch the most epic video of all time.
WOAH! 0_0
Sooooo Coool
Whoever thought of this is Genius! >.<
two words for this: UH MAZING.
Jynx deserves a permanent evolution with Mr. Mime as Magmar and Electabuzz
Mega Jynx’s will be renamed Snooki
mega ditto
“Mega-Ditto can now retain it’s copied form for a long period of time even after the battle has ended. Now, with Mega-Ditto you can obtain the powerful Pokemon you have always dreamed of such as: Ho-Oh, Lugia, Deoxys, Mewtwo, and other Pokemon.
Fan-Base “NOOOOO, BAN MEGA-DITTO. DO NOT SPAM HIM! DO NOT PLEASE PLEASE!!!!”
I can hear the cries lol
Now all I need is a dittonite and somebody with an arcius… Even better turn get your mega ditto to use transform on another mega evo to have a permanent mega evolution フフフフフフフフ
LOL. That would be so hilarious. xD
i say that is a great idea for ditto
that is true
What if the Gen 6 starters got mega evolutions?
Its possible.
MEGA CHESPIN! 😀
Fennekin’s final evolution => Fire/Psychic
Fennekin’s final evolution mega form => Fire/Fighting
LOL that would be fricking Hilarious
XD
i do think that Gen 6 starters are going to get Mega Evolution
so that you only get the megastone for the pokemon you started with
that would finally make a starter viable for competitive play
I don’t know how I feel about gardevoir getting one if gallade doesn’t. I like gallade more 🙁 But I would really like a Honchkrow MegaEvolution. Honchkrow’s just always been one of my favorites for some reason :)) Though I’m not really sure what you would add to it’s design..And you know something I just though about? All of these MegaEvolutions are going to have to have shiny forms too! Awesome!
Sorry but there’s no way a pseudo legendary gets a mega evolution. If anything, I can see Flygon getting a mega evolution to be able to better compete against the pseudo legendaries.
What do you mean with “there’s no way a pseudo legendary gets a mega evo”? Mewtwo (a full legendary) gets one so why is it not possible for a pseudo legend to get one?
Because you can’t use Mewtwo for competetive battling. That’s why.
Confirmed Mega Ash ketchum
>pseudo legends on the list
sure…
did someone miss Blissey on that list?
>Scizor
Oooookaaaaaaaay… even the idea should make any competitive battlers nervous. I suggest one for Breloom with higher speed then? @_@
>”Abomasnow underappreciated”
as long as there isn’t a new Snowstorm user added, its gonna STAY relevant.
>Charizard/Blastoise
makes no sense. If they would promote only these because of their possible availability in normal gameplay, it makes 0 sense to exclude Venusaur.
They didn’t exclude Venusaur for sure, its trademark didn’t go up at the same time presumably.
That’s it Heracross and Pinsir, no real evolutions for you.
Actually they are already powerful so i wasn’t expecting an evolution for them although i would love a pre-evolution for both
Not enough gen 3 pokemon and yes I am being serious
Hmmm….. This seems like a fan’s dream come true. No wonder it’s a rumor for now. lol. These are the evolutions I want on the list: Medicham (with 6 arms please), Banette, and Houndoom (with three heads please). Mega Latios and Latias would be really cool for some reason I think. Lol. So yeah, Nintendo is pretty much going to be taking by entire savings account worth of money. All of these are great! What do you guys think?
Why a six-armed Medicham?
Six-Armed Medicham = Vishnu 😮

Yup, that’s Disqus. It randomly shows guests as other members for me too.

Okay. You had me at Mega Houndoom, Banette, and Medicham.
Considering that a Mega Form was given to a Starter Pokémon, Blaziken, I don’t think they would leave it alone, because it would be totally unfair to the other starters, so I think EVERY SINGLE STARTER might have Mega Forms, it’s only logical in my head. Seriously, just leaving Braziken having Mega Form? Nope, uh-uh >_>
Actually i think that not all the starters will get Mega evolution
because i think Nintendo/Gamefreak will milk this as much as they can so expect every gen to have like 4 Mega evolution starters
but i would love to see MegaSceptile MegaEmpoleon and MegaSamorutt
This makes sense, but I don’t have to like that GF would do this >:(
They could really do Samurott justice with a Mega Evolution. I think Charizard deserves temporary Dragon-typing even if people still consider it their favorite Pokemon.
And it would be weird if they gave one of the Fire-Fighters a mega-evolution and not the other two but I guess they could put some of these off for a generation or so.
Fingers crossed for Fire/Dragon Mega Charizard!!!!!! 😀
With Levitate as an ability.
I honestly think the will give Pokemon that were cool back in the day, and were nerfed or needed an evo but looked complete Mega’s. But imo, Charizard and Gyarados are perfect candidates for this, and I hope they get Fire/Dragon and Water/Dragon in the Mega Evos.
I agree although with the Sky Battles and all, you won’t get to see your awesome Charizard or Gyarados in them unless they both get Levitate as an ability.
Unless they do it in a way that allows them to be in the sky battle originally since they come out first (so any pre-mega flying Pokemon) stay in sky battles which would allow them both to fight, change types and won’t need levitate. So far we only know what you need to go into battle but megas change right before battle, so there is a chance we could still get both.
I want Mega Meganium!!!
Yes please I would love GF more than I already doo.
Grass/Fairy as a typing. 😀
i concur, which means i agree
no tauros?? 🙁
I wanted that too. 🙁
:'( I hope Venusaur would get a Mega Evolution because I feel his design is somewhat lacking I comparison to the other two starters, but it has loads of potential to look awesome! I just want it to look less ugly really.
Wow the Eon duo! Their art is beautiful already but a Mega Evolution! That would look epic. Yay for Gardevoir Mega Evo!
(This was in the post this was announced too).
Can someone please tell me where in this article it says “This is a complete list. There is absolutely no chance of any other Pokemon getting a Mega Evolution.”?
-.-
Well it’s nice to see Medicham on a Mega rumor list. He needs some attention (perhaps something based off of Shiva). It’s nice to see a few more starters on there, but it’d be nice to see all of them. Hopefully this list is both incomplete and true. Also, when I thought of Mega evolutions for starters, these popped into my head.

Edit, and yes, I know they are dark type variants.
Edit:Edit: I’m not saying these would be Mega Starters, just that hearing about mega Pokemon reminded me of these guys.
Those are amazing! I would not complain if those were real. I really like Olmurk. And why are they all /Dark?
They were made to all be dark versions of the starters. I think they were mad a little over 5 years ago (don’t quote me on that)
I think they were made with the idea of them being corrupted versions :3
I’ll take any mega evolution, but any of these would be awful.
The concept is spectacular, and I could live with these. But I would exchange Dark for other typings, thus partially changing the design as well. Nonetheless, these are fabulous. Props to whoever made them.
Charizard’s wings turning into arms…??? If anything, the wings should get bigger.
these look more like ben 10 ultimate aliens than megapokemon
heh they kinda do.
nice but way too elaborate it takes the simplicity out
I was going to complain about mega lati@s but then I remembered the newtwo and figured they should get a chance as well. oooh machamp needs a mega evolution though!!
9 armed machamp! >_> oh crap, can’t HANDle that…
XD
MEGA LATIOS!! OMFG!
XD
Just noticed that, will probably be badass as f**k.
Thoughts, all? I think some starter final evolution names are missing, but that is because these were the only trademarked names, I guess. What do you all think?
