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!

  2. No one will ever be happy with one thing. It’s just human nature. I like Mega Charizard X and the next person could like Mega Charizard Y more because Mega Charizard X is “uglier.” GameFreak could give us R/S remakes and I will be the happiest person alive. The next person could hate them. The point is that it’s hard to please everyone.

    Slip yourself into Game Freak’s shoes. Do you think it would be hard to create new Pokemon each time. Have people hate on them, say the game is the worst, etc. after they have worked so hard on the game.

    If there is no after game in X/Y (WHICH IS NOT CONFIRMED) I’m okay with it because they have worked really hard, making all these models, music, Pokemon-Amie reactions, Face detection, Pokemon cries, graphics look at this and tell me that is not amazing- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4vuGUoWVW8&feature=player_embedded

    Pokemon have their respective fainting and in going in battle animations, attack animations are just fantastic, Super Training to make all competitive battler’s life easier, faster walking, adding more challenge, Fairy type, Mega Evolutions.

    They went all out with this game and the “no after game” or “only 70 Pokemon” is not confirmed.
    Even if that is true they are awesome 70 Pokemon and I have yet to see one that I dislike. Since you can’t please everyone, now people complain about the lack of Pokemon (which is not even confirmed). Would you like to have 70 awesome people or 150 Pokemon with some bad designs?

    I have yet to see a review for Pokemon X & Y that is less than a 7.5 (correct me if I’m wrong) Guess why? The games are magically delicious! Just because you might not like a certain feature doesn’t mean you should cancel your pre-order or not buy the game.

  4. Mewtwo is confirmed to be in the game. It’s in the the same cave where Zygarde is on the far right of the map. It has a remix of it’s Gen I theme.

  8. “i’m blocked on both paths out of lumiose city.. one because im not f—ing cool enough and the other because power outage. i guess i have to go back to the power plant for some f—ing reason.”

    And who said there was no after game? New areas open up and more challenge arises. With new areas means- MORE NEW POKEMON. 😀

        • I refuse to think she is the champion because it is just…. WHY? How did she become the champion? Here is why I feel this way (Bulbapedia):
          – Diantha appears in Pokémon X and Y as a famous movie star that helps the player customize their clothes and hair at a Boutique and Salon. She is also a Trainer, but shows more interest in other Trainers who have real potential.

          How does a movie star/trainer with interest in other trainers become the champion? And why her? Why not Korinna, who holds the secret to Mega Evolution, or AZ, who defines the odds of Mega Evolution and can HAVE THREE ON ONE TEAM, or Sycamore, one of the brightest Pokemon professors devoting his time to learning more about the Pokemon world and about this newly discovered Mega Evolution?

          • Steven Stone collected rocks.

            Alder did jack shit with his life.

            Lance just stood around being a prick.

            Wallace trained water types.

            WTF you looking for here.

          • With potential. She was influenced by Drayden and was young. Diantha? Has NO interest in Pokemon as much as Iris did, since she focuses on being a beauty star and trainers with potential. She doesn’t really deserve the position of Champion, but one’s devotion to trainers can really take you a far way.

          • All Steven did was go around and dig up rocks. Wallace was a gym leader with no inspiration. Cynthia, where did she come from? I have no means to start a war, but every champion has a past time. I for one am happy she is a champion. She is fitting the theme for beauty, is she not?

          • She is, but I guess I feel this way because of the fact that no storyline has been leaked. Hell, I felt this way with Iris when she was confirmed champion of BW2. Once more of the storyline and flow of the game is revealed, then I may change my opinion but I for one, was asking a question, and in no means did I want to start a war. I love Diantha, and am too glad she is champion, but all I wanted was some thoughts, not an argument, which wasn’t really my intention. I’m sorry if I offended you…

          • I accept things rather quickly, so I am not upset that she is. But you didn’t upset me at all. I was trying to make a good point, as did other.. <3

          • Well, point taken. I guess I didn’t realize the purpose of her being champion, which was the point of my post. Now more sense has been made. 😀

          • Tbh you haven’t played the game yet … you don’t know YET how much interest she has in our furry friends

          • And? Just because your a famous movie star doesn’t mean you can’t have talent as a trainer. All Steven did was go around and dig up rocks.

          • From Bulbapedia’s description it seems that she has no interest in being a Pokemon trainer, as her occupations (mainly) seem to be a movie star, a boutique and salon woman and PARTIALLY a trainer, with interest in aiding trainers who have real potential. Nothing here really indicates that she was going to be the champion, which I have to admit is a nice plot twist. Wonder how the storyline plays into all this…

          • “She is also a Trainer, but shows more interest in other Trainers who have real potential.” Actually gives her much more merit as the champion.

          • I thought it was obvious she was the champion since the official website revealed her. Pokemon has been on a bit of a feminist spree recently (and i have no reason to complain). And you haven’t played the game so you don’t really know much about her yet, you might find out you really like her character.

          • I thought she was obvious too. But I also thought Sycamore would have been too. He still could be the Team Flare leader at least.

          • Going by the fact that he doesn’t even give you your starters i’ve been inclined from the beginning to think that he’s not that important… He’s just there to remind you not to ride your bike indoors.

          • The silent/unimportant ones are the most dangerous. Also, he wears orange socks. That screams Team Flare!
