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. got a question! why so much attention on the “hoenn remakes”? and with the spelling “hurren”? im legitimately confused here, is there something wrong with hoping for a gen 3 remake? its like a meme was started regarding them!

    • One of the reviewers said that they have yet to find any minigames outside of Pokemon training and battling… and then listed it as a good thing.

      He/she said that the past games have lost focus and didn’t put enough emphasis on the real focus of the game, battles, and then said that the lack of other side features helped the game focus on battling more.

      What? Who else ever felt that Contests made the game worse? Contests are merely a side-quest that you can choose to use or ignore and do not detract from the battling at all.

      • Contests were really stupid to me. Most of the ‘side’ quest stuff was stupid to me. Medals and movies and musicals and marathons…all just…dumb.

        They were ways to get some nice items though.

        • I can see people disliking them (I hate musical with a passion), but you can’t say that they took away from the main game, right?

          • I usually ignored them completely and it didn’t really affect me, however, I would rather GF pumped a lot more of its resources into making better gameplay for the main sections of the game than put in time and space for stupid side games.

        • I wouldn’t even consider Medals a side quest stuff, they were straight up achievements, something that is pretty much in most games nowadays anyways. Now it might have you DO the side quest stuff to get all of them, but that’s what Achievements have you do anyways.

      • Yeah, exactly my thoughts. Having elective objectives is what really makes a role-playing game.

        The musicals were TERRIBLE. The 4th gen contests were ‘meh’ at best. However, Hoenn contests were extremely addictive and could be improved so much….I guess I’ll just have to wait a couple years for the remake.

          • I can’t believe that she made it the Grand Festival! Also, May’s Blaziken should have kicked Dawn’s Piplup’s butt in the Wallace Cup…

            I loved Contests in the anime (I might want to Coordinate if Pokemon was real) and think that they desperately need to be brought back to make Serena strong. She can’t share the same goal as Ash (gym battles) or the series would get too repetitive with double gym battles. Contests gave Dawn and May purpose and they were great. Iris just felt like a tag-a-long and I don’t want Serena to receive the same treatment.

  2. I’m gonna nickname all my pokemon after characters from Avatar: The last Airbender! (the awesome tv series not the movie…) Who else likes that show?
