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. Ok, I don’t know who said this, but earlier I saw something saying

    Gen 1 – Red, Green, Blue (Charizard, Venusaur, Blastoise)
    Gen 3 – Ruby, Emerald, Sapphire (Groudon, Rayquaza, Kyogre)
    Gen 6 – ?

    Now, I don’t know if anyone’s pointed this out yet, but look at the legendaries. Xerneas is BLUE, Yveltal is RED, and Zygarde is GREEN.

    There is no way this pattern is a coincidence.

  2. Am I the only one on this planet who REALLY likes *spoiler*Zygarde*/spoiler*? My friend said that he hated the design and I haven’t seen any raving comments around here. Like, it ties with Deoxys as one of my favorite Pokemon, along with Noivern. Love at first sight? You could say so 😛

  3. Having issues posting pics, but Josh hasn’t stopped yet. He was in a battle with his Sylveon, and it got burned. Well, thanks to his Pokemon Amie Affection with Sylveon “Josh blew on the burn, Healing Sylveon” happened

    Also, Phantump has Natural Cure and a new grass move called Forest’s Curse, which turns the opponent into a grass type.

    Pumpkaboo has Pickup, no new moves.

    Moon blast has 95 base power i believe.

  4. About Pokemon Bank…
    Can I transfer my Fennekin to Pokemon Bank, restart the game, choose Froakie, then transfer it again, restart the game, and then choose Chespin, and take all the starters I have in Pokemon Bank?

  5. So, if you go to instagram and check out poketrip, they have a photo of a supposed shiny xerneas. It’s red. I like it, and don’t care if it’s fake. It’s a nice concept though.

  6. So, there’s a rumor combing through facebook about mexico. Apparently, Mexico ALSO broke the street date for X and Y Today.

  7. I think that the fact that they didnt make many pokemon is only a confirmation that there are more generations to come! and also the pokemon bank, Duh. and then in the future there will come around a gen, maybe gen 8 or 9 which adds a ton of new pokemon like gen V. and all the new pokemon are amazing, so i dont think there’s anything to complain about!
