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. >Legendary ice-type wolf based on Fenrir
    >hint 1: leakers report in-game NPCs mentioning a “legendary wolf pokemon”
    >hint 2: Zygarde’s asymmetric stat distribution, favoring physical defense
    >hint 3: suspicious ice mirror in an empty room in an island in the middle of nowhere
    >hint 4, the big one: Burigaron (ブリガロン) — Maybe a blizzard wolf: buri (ブリ) from blizzard (burizaado) + garo (ガロ / 牙狼) meaning fanged wolf. It could also come from garou (餓狼) meaning starving wolf. This was leaked months ago along with many others that ended up being real, including Zygarde.

    This was in a leak i read and it fits perfectly with this picture this could be a connection
    and a drawing of how it could look like

    • Gym leader spoiler included. Ignore if you don’t want to be spoiled.I really want to know what Fairy TMs there are. It’s great to have Fairy Pokemon and all, but most types have moves that other Pokemon can learn that are crucial to their movesets (like BoltBeam on Starmie and StoneQuake on physical attackers). I really want to see if there’s a widespread Fairy type TM that competitive Pokemon can utilize. We already have SPOILERfairySPOILER gym leader and now we need to know what TM she/he gives.

    • I just can’t seem to believe that Gamefreak is gonna have this pokemon on a possible Pokemon Z cover lol. Imagine this thing’s face staring at you everytime you put the pokemon Z 3ds card away…

  5. >Are there seasons in XY?
    Not in the same way as BW. Different areas have different seasons all the time, they don’t change every month. Fall area, spring area, winter area, etc
    >Day/night?
    Yes.

    I saw this and now I can’t stop thinking about it… So I created some theories.
    First theorie – Since AZ created Yveltal maybe he used many pokemon to give life to it!
    Second theorie – Maybe since Yveltal is Dark-type and weak to Fairy-type, he lost in a battle to Xerneas and Team Flare revived it using the lives of many pokemon.
    Third theorie – Xerneas is the Life Pokemon so it died once and to revive it they had to use the lives of many pokemon.
    But I believe more in the first one since theleaker is playing Pokemon Y

  7. Does sylveon need a stone AND Max affection… of just the affection part.. kinda sad it would be the only one that doesn’t need a stone to evolve…

    • This is something incredibly hilarious that I never considered. However, if I had actually seen “sad Eevee” my heart would have broken.
