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. I said this in an earlier post but, if all of the starters from previous generations receive mega evolutions than I hope to see more type combinations such as Blastoise becoming
    water/steel.
    Generation2: Meganium grass/fairy, Typhlosion fire/ground.
    Generation
    5: Serperior grass/dragon, Samurott water/fighting. I know Blastoise
    was already revealed but if their is another version then it would be
    possible.

  2. So, apparently the King of Kalos created a weapon that rained fire and death across the land, which was 3000 years ago.. this man was relative of Lysandre. Lysandre is also incredibly tall.

    AZ confirmed for King of Kalos, creator of Yveltal, founder of mega evolution, greatx9001 grandfather of Lysandre.

  3. Wow to be honest I’m starting to dislike the generation more and more. You only have 69 new pokemon. With 9 for starters, 3 for legendaries, 4 version ex. that only leaves you with 54 pokemons. Then the starters are so disappointing, as much as I try to lighten up to Dolphox, I just can’t. The legendaries, I must admit are gorgeous but come only 3. What happened GF. I bought the limited x and y 3ds just to play this game. $200 + $40=$240 on a game I’m not going to enjoy… Thanks GF

    • People like yourself are hilarious. You haven’t even played the damn game and you’re already jumping to conclusions. There’s a Snorlax of a difference between leaks and experiencing it for yourself.
      70 new Pokemon is more then enough when open minded people (those who enjoy the games and don’t hate) love the amazing new designs whilst also enjoying the experience of using older Pokemon in the newly improved battle system. There’s more to the game then how many mons they’ve made or whatever. Also LOL at another person who hates the starters.,

      • Its good to be optimistic but I just feel like this game was rushed. I missed out on gen 5… and was so exited to finally get back in to pokemon but I know I am going to be disappointed. Hopefully your right and it is better in person.

        • Even with more time, they would not have created more pokemon. The whole reason there are fewer new pokemon was to pace the franchise, not to finish this game.

          Otherwise they would have skipped on the megas and made around 100 new pokemon.

    • It’s the thought that counts. They had to make over 700 models for each and every pokemon AND their forms. And I’m not counting shinies. They had limited space and the designs for Kalos Native pokemon are fantastic. They had to rewrite the type calculations, Mega Evolutions, and so much more, you people are just ungrateful -.-

  4. If it weren’t for these leaks, would Spiritzee’s and Swirlex’s Evolutions really be our most recent confirmed news? Man this week would have SUCKED!!!!

    Reply
    • I’d like to see the Dawn stone used again. It only evolves to Pokémon, where as the Dusk stone evolves three. And now the Shiny stone evolves four.

  5. So what new official reveals can we expect to see this final week of waiting for X and Y? We pretty much know everything now. Will they make some of the leaks official, gives us something completely new, or just do nothing?

        • It is even more tough now (5th gen) than it was previously but with time everyone gets better.
          My advice is watch competitive battlers found on Youtube that are a good place to watch and learn like..Shofu, Pokeaimmd etc

          Secondly in comp. battling you have to accept that favourites or cute Pokemon aren’t always the strongest or best ones to use..
          Thirdly competitive battles are on another level. Strategy and variety is in abundance.
          There are different tiers where Pokemon are categorised based on how much they are used..naturally the highest tier is where the Pokes are used the most because they are the better ones..
          I prefer OU which is the most common tier..the strongest tier and most competitive…
          Ubers..well that’s not too important..

          Another thing..being unique is nice but your first task should be to learn the basics and stick to the basics..
          In comp. battles you learn there are so much threats..therefore you need to have balance in your team typing wise..weather is VERY common such as Drizzle or Drought..so opponents frequently carry weather based teams designed to destroy the opponent and also out do other fellow weather teams..
          Hazards are important..Stealth rocks is the most important move in the game because every time the opponent switches a poke in it takes damage..it also breaks dragonites multiscale ability..as well as destroy powerhouses like Volcarona..
          Dragons are also over powered so naturally you need a steel type to absorb there attacks so Jirachi/Heatran/Ferro are some good options HOWEVER keep in mind that many dragons have fire attack or HP fire so Ferro can get destroyed if they predict you to switch in..or Earthquake your heatran/jirachi..
          Keldeo is a big threat too and usually you want something that can cover it like Celebi or Jellicent..
          Priority is important EG if your opponent uses a Dragonite and Dragon dances and you have nothing to takes hits from it and nothing that can outspeed it because it’s used dragon dance then you’re screwed..that’s why you have something that hit it for sure like an ice shar mamoswine or a choiced scarf Terrakion which by the way is one of the strongest Pokemon in the game..
          Also remember the opponent and yourself is in a mind game battle..where you’re both thinking what move each is going to make next and whether that move is too obvious so shall I make this move predicting my opponent to predict me etc..Prediction is key..always remember that luck is a huge factor too!

          Similarly you have so many other threats that in time you’ll learn but the most imporant thing is not just covering threats but also building a team that works together well which again with experience you’ll get better..
          There are also different play styles..Hyper offense is when the opponent uses a team of VERY offensive pokes designed to just attack and attack..
          Stall however is the opposite where you wither down your opponent through spikes/poison etc by using defensive Pokemon to stall and annoy your opponent..
          When making competitive teams and pokemon then giving them the right nature and EV’s is important..a good place to start is Smogon they’ll tell you what sets to use etc and after a good time you’ll be able to alter the sets based on your own preferences.

          I’d love to help you more another time as I’m kinda busy now but hope this has helped in some way or another..ask me later for any questions as many as you’d like! :]]

  6. SPOILERS* I’m late but does anyone know the imperial measurements of Greninja? Chesnaught’s height is 5’3″ Weight is 198.4 lbs Delphox’s Height is 4’11” and it’s weight is 86.0 lbs.

    • A new ability? Most of the old gen Pokémon have two abilities and a Dream World Ability, and we know almost of the new Pokémon’s abilities. I sense more Pokémon to be revealed here. Yeah there’s way more than 70 new ones.

      Oh. Unless Pixilate is a Mega Ability. FFFFUUUUUU*****************!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • GF really outdid themselves. I mean, now we have at least four abilities and moves that change a certain type to another type. That will change the way people battle and new strategies must be made. <3

        • Just flicked through the Unova Pokedex again and honestly, only ones i cared for in Unova were Scraggy/Scrafty, Drilbur/Excadrill and that’s about it.

          Reply
          • Never cared for Haxorus, and while Hydreigon has a good design, it never really stood out to me like Tyranitar and Metagross did before them. I think you can figure out, i don’t care much for Dragons…they dont appeal to me much (except Dragonite, but that’s nostalgia talking…)

          • Well just stating an opinion so it’s all cool. In Kalos though I like all the starter designs, and Pokemon like Aegislash, Malamar, Goodra, stand out to me so far. Will need to use some of the others to get a feel for them. But i’m liking them better than i did Gen 4 and 5.

          • Gen. 4 had some pretty awesome designs and gimmicks IMO. Gen. 5 had some good gimmicks, but some just failed, like the Monkeys for example.

          • there were tooooooooooooons in Unova that i like. maybe it’s ’cause i like cute /and/ cool things. :t

        • I profoundly disagree. I’ll tell you which Pokémon I didn’t like that much on the Unova dex:

          -Unfezant (it didn’t stand out like a Pidgeot or a Noctowl, it was just too bland and “little”, it needed to be bigger and more magestic)
          -Stoutland (its’ prevos deserved better, they were awesome)
          -Swoobat (too weird for me)
          -Whimsicott (also too weird for me and not a decent Lilligant counterpart)
          -Garbodor (although it’s actually grown on me and I don’t hate it anymore, I simply don’t like it either)
          -Gothitelle (also a little weird for me)
          -Vanillux (the same as Garbodor)
          -Stunfisk (also too weird for me)

          And that’s it! And even these ones I don’t see as “forgettable”, I can see how and why people would like them, it’s just me that finds them too weird, we all have our tastes. For example my brother actually likes Stoutland a lot and I know of people who love Swoobat, Whimsicott and Vanilluxe! We all have our opinions and tastes. I’m not criticizing yours, you’re entitled to it, but I have to disagree on the “forgettable” Pokémon, as Unova had an awesome and unforgettable pokédex even if vast…

    • Not much more left to leak. All Gyms, E4, Champion have been done. If there are only 70 pokemon, cant really leak anymore. Only thing we need confirmation on is the Post-Game and if BF exists or not

      • Yeah, my hype levels are rather low now because of them. I am still very excited for the game, but we know too much and is kinda underwhelming, but the content is still unbelievable.

  7. So the only thing that really interests me before release is Vivillon and Gourgeist.
    Did the leakers figure out what causes their forms to change?
