RUMOR: More Mega Evolutions Revealed?

rumor-mega-evolutions-slider

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!!

  1. “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.

      • 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?

          • 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.

    • 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.

      Reply
      • 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.

  2. 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!

  3. 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.

    Reply
  4. >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.

    • Actually they are already powerful so i wasn’t expecting an evolution for them although i would love a pre-evolution for both

  5. 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?

  8. 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 >_>

    Reply
    • 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

      Reply
      • 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.

        Reply
    • 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.

      Reply
      • 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.

        Reply
        • 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.

  9. :'( 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).

  10. 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.”?
    -.-

  11. 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.

  12. 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!!

  13. 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?
