Mega Evolution: Who’s Next?

This post contains spoilers for Pokémon X & Pokémon Y. The comment section of this post will also contain spoilers for the upcoming games. Do NOT proceed it you wish to avoid details on the game.

When Mega Evolutions were revealed a couple of months back, fans were taken totally by surprise wondering what exactly we were being shown. Now that we understand just what Mega Evolutions are, we’re all guessing what Pokémon could be one of the select few to receive a Mega Evolution.

A while ago our close friend AAPF began researching trademark filings for Pokémon names. This research has previously uncovered Pokémon that have since received Mega Evolutions, and it seems highly likely that more Pokémon from this list will receive a Mega Evolution.

The following Pokémon have all had trademark registrations made for their names since the release of Black 2 & White 2, following the trend of other Pokémon with their names trademarked again there is a possibility these Pokémon will receive Mega Evolutions. Pokémon with a * next to their name have recently been confirmed.

  • Gengar*
  • Jynx
  • Gyarados*
  • Scizor
  • Tyranitar
  • Gardevoir*
  • Medicham
  • Banette
  • Abomasnow*
  • Kyogre
  • Kecleon
  • Latias
  • Latios
  • Pinsir
  • Aerodactyl*
  • Houndoom
  • Groudon
  • Aggron
  • Plusle
  • Minun
  • Sceptile
  • Rayquaza
  • Absol*
  • Heracross

It should be mentioned that this list is not a definitive list of Pokémon that could receive Mega Pokémon, that actual list could be a lot larger, or significantly smaller and we won’t find out until the games release. What Pokémon do you want to receive a Mega Evolution? Let us know!

  1. not to sound whiney here, this is actually a question of curiosity, but do you think game freak deliberately puts an important ice-type trainer in the games? I mean, there has been one for every generation! again, not complaining, just wondering why they would do that if its on purpose.

    • Probably because its an easy gym to prepare against. Bring a fire or rock type move(not even a pokemon) and you’re good. And who knows maybe so your dragon type doesn’t plow through everything lol

    • I think 1-3 are all confirmed to evolve level up. People seem to think that Sylveon evolves by maxing out Amie stats. We haven’t gotten any info about Espurr, but all other regional cats evolve via Level up. Furfrou doesn’t evolve and all fossil Pokemon so far evolve via Level up.

    Geninja (Water/Dark)
    Charizard (Fire/Flying)
    Aeigislash (Ghost/Steel)
    Mr. Mime (Psychic/Fairy)
    Aurorus (Ice/Rock) – might switch with Avalugg
    Raichu (Electric)
