Mega Evolution: Who’s Next?

by

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!

  9. I know it’s unrealistic, but I hope mega Sceptile would be grass/electric. Like the yellow seeds on his back could be like electric bolts or something. I don’t know, but it would be something different and fun and I really wish that Gamefreak would make riskier typings.

  11. And I hope Nintendo/Game Freak realizes that since they made Pokemon X&Y… theres no going back. They can’t try to push some 2D sprite world and with no character customization or mega evolutions or 700+ Pokemon and expect people will buy it. They basically have to make the game MORE EPIC than the last. THAT MEANS THE R/S/E REMAKES WILL BE SOOOOO EPIC IN 3D <3

  16. What a sucky aftergame. I had a feeling the leaker that leaked Greninja and Hawlucha was right. What a big disappointment.
    Masuda, you fucked up big time. Give back rights to Satoshi Tajiri.

  17. XY had so much potential. And what do we get? A half assed game!
    I will NOT stand for it! I’m gonna totally retire if Z is not the saving grace.

    • STOP. You need to grow up. X and Y and limited space on a 3DS, too ya know. They are nearly breaking the 3DS’s power, and you are bitching about it’s AFTERGAME? Just stop. Stop now.

    • yea it was potential wasted from what i have been seeing so far. but you should just play the game and you might have a different opinion. im saving my criticism after i finish the game. but i completely agree with you man

    • Will you shut the fuck up already. 70 Pokemon has NOT been confirmed. JUST a battle frontier has NOT BEEN CONFIRMED. A Stupid safari zone has NOT BEEN CONFIRMED. STOP POSTING RUMORS AS EVIDENCE FOR YOU BEING A BABY. Just GTFO!

      • Actually, most of it has been now unfortunately… And if you think those are “rumours”, the same guy who revealed the Z legendary, and elite 4, revealed these. So just calm down

          • I said those things are not confirmed, as you say most of it has. However, Nintendo has not officially revealed anything that has leaked in the past few days, therefore, your point is invalid. I am telling Mitchell to stop thinking those things are confirmed because until Nintendo confirms it, we really can’t judge anything, even though these leaks are almost 100% confirmed.

          • So I guess the starter evos aren’t confirmed, also the gym leaders aren’t and the pokedex, and anything that’s been leaked over the past couple of days. With an attitude like that, why are you even here? You’re not even making sense

          • Correct. Nintendo has not confirmed those. At the moment they are trustworthy leaks, but not 100% confirmed. You ask me why I’m here? Because I can be, fucker. I’m not making sense? Go to Common Sense and Grammer Academy and learn it, punk.

          • How old are you?

            Something is confirmed to be in the game if there is sufficient proof for it to be so. You will play the game before nintendo reveals all the sugimori art for all the pokemon. So when you own the game, and you are playing it. Are the pokemon in your party not confirmed because Nintendo hasn’t revealed them?

            I just don’t understand you’re logic.

          • Stop! Dicie is saying that although these are trustworthy leaks, we can only truly confirm them if we have the games ourselves, or Nintendo confirms them.

          • I’m just trying to stop a war. We don’t need to fight. This is supposed to be the nicest Pokemon community on the webs.

          • That isn’t your business, and I didn’t ask you either.
            My logic is perfectly clear, and you are the retard not understanding it. I am saying that someone cannot bitch about leaks that were not officially confirmed by Nintendo. Hell, some are blurry, which is where Nintendo gets a +. Some have less detail like that, also where Nintendo gets a +. We don’t know everything about those Pokemon making them so special that there is a small amount, which again is where Nintendo gets a +. Come on man, you start making sense. 😐

          • Ok, I’ll break it down one more time.

            We recieve a leak from a source that has been CONFIRMED to have the game. For example, Josh, Kenpachi, or Kosthedin before he got nintendo’d

            Said leakers take photos of pokemon in the game, and put them on the internet. The pokemon is then confirmed to be in the game. This also applies to gameplay mechanics, items, areas, etc.

            Something is most certainly confirmed if a reliable leaker says it is. I don’t understand how you cannot grasp that.

            So do you still believe there are only 42 pokemon that have been discovered in X and Y? Because that is all that has been revealed.

            Attempt to explain your logic then. It literally makes no sense at the moment.

          • Yeah, I’m done here. You clearly are not understanding my point, as you are a stubborn cunt. I’ll leave now. No more of this.

          • Absolutely no need to call him a *cunt* Dicie. I understand you are annoyed, but you need to die it down a little bit.

          • Ladies and gentlemen, this here is a concrete example of cognitive dissonance. Unfortunately our friend here hasn’t yet fully grasped the ability to coherently examine two opposing ideas at once, instead opting for vitroilic hate speech in a blind hope that it will cover up his ignorance.

            It is futile trying to reason with one that cannot think reasonably. Just remember, confirmation can come from many sources, and a more open mind might lead to a far more beneficial, even enjoyable, experience.

            Good day to you Dicie. Remember, don’t drink milk unless the milk company says it is milk, because otherwise, it might not be milk!!

          • I can guarantee you Dicie that nothing I typed there was stupid. Copy and paste this into a word document, and come back in 4 years when your reach high school, then you will understand. You are probably really young, or just not quite generously endowed in terms of intellect, and that is not your fault. I won’t argue with you for any longer, because really, it is like playing chess with a pigeon, or shaving a pig.

        • Mitchell doesn’t need to be so upset over such small stuff. X and Y have given us so much, but he is just being an ungrateful bastard.

          Reply

          • I am stating an opinion to get the trolls who post every few seconds with negative comments about X/Y outta here. We don’t need them fucking up our decisions about getting X/Y. So stop being a smartass and mind your own business, really.

          • Your idea of what defines something being confirmed is relly odd. 70 pokemon is confirmed, but who cares, we get 450 pokemon to catch BEFORE the national dex. The safari zone isn’t stupid, it gives you randomly generated pokemon based off your friends list, and it gets bigger if you have more pokemon, that is AWESOME.

          • It isn’t odd, its the truth.
            I know the Safari Zone isn’t stupid, as I was quoting his statement.
            I love the games nonetheless, and some bitchy person isn’t going to change my mind about that. 🙂

          • A LEAK IS JUST AS SUFFICIENT AS CONFIRMATION

            Nintendo doesn’t even confirm coro coro leaks straight away, so I guess those are fake until nintendo confirms them.

            What a weird way to look at things…

          • Well, have it your way. I don’t want to argue with an unreasonable piece of shit. Lemme say that an official Nintendo leak is better than a blurry leak, because hell, no matter how clear they are, they could indeed be fake, because some are just REALLY skilled at using DeviantArt, which at this point is unlikely, but is a possibility. However, I will rest my case because I know these leaks are correct due to the people who leaked them and the proof (cartridge, boxart, etc.) but this was supposed to be an argument for Mitchell’s claim, and your nosy ass barged right in. But whatever, this conversation is over on my part, and let’s just agree to disagree before this gets deeper and more explicit.

          • You know what? I’m not being unreasonable, you cannot justify anything you have said. I haven’t sworn at you, called you retarded, or anything. You’re clinging on to this random belief that in all honesty, makes no sense entirely.

            I’m sorry that I had the nerve to get my “nosey arse” into your precious rants on a public forum.

          • In my book, you are being unreasonable, so deal with it. I can justify my own thoughts, but it is you who is throwing me off. I know you haven’t sworn or anything, but you have offended me in many ways, as we all have our own opinions. My beliefs may differ from yours, but that’s for me to handle and for you to handle, no need to get in a feud due to different beliefs. I understand your belief, as I believe the recent leaks, but you aren’t for mine because the ARGUMENT WASN’T DIRECTED TOWARDS YOU, which is where the nosy ass part comes in. I am not ranting, it is Mitchell who is ranting, and this entire argument about what is confirmed and isn’t is towards him. Let’s just quit here. Come on. Let’s agree for once and stop.

          • Please Dicie, just explain why a leak isn’t a valid source of confirmation for new information about pokemon.

            I don’t understand what you are on about buddy, I really don’t Maybe you could explain?

          • I will rest my case for why a leak isn’t a valid confirmation source with you, but not with Mitchell and his opinion. I am done. Let’s just agree to disagree and be friends, shall we? This has gone on far too long.

          • Oh my, you still can’t even string together a basic argument, how sad are thee. Really you should get banned for swearing and stuff, but oh well, I guess somebody needs to drag down the quality of the chatroom

          • Ladies and gentlemen, this here is a concrete example of cognitive dissonance. Unfortunately our friend here hasn’t yet fully grasped the ability to coherently examine two opposing ideas at once, instead opting for vitroilic hate speech in a blind hope that it will cover up his ignorance.

            It is futile trying to reason with one that cannot think reasonably. Just remember, confirmation can come from many sources, and a more open mind might lead to a far more beneficial, even enjoyable, experience.

            Good day to you Dicie. Remember, don’t drink milk unless the milk company says it is milk, because otherwise, it might not be milk!!

          • Exactly my point. No matter what, I am getting X/Y, case closed. No one should change our opinion about that, since we all think and feel differently about things.

          • *he says that now. Troll freak always twists stuff someway. He also said it would be fully capable of 3D

  20. There better be DLC. This game is truly taking the series in the wrong direction and the right direction on so many levels. No after game, only 70 Pokemon. What’s wrong with you Game Freak? That’s all I have left to say.

  21. So… Just a Battle Frontier? R/S/E and D/P/Pt only had those as well. No special after-game or anything. Nobody complained about it back then, so why start now?
