The November issue of CoroCoro has leaked and officially revealed/confirmed some Mega Evolutions, the starter’s final evolutions, and more!
Mega Evolutions
- Mega Gengar – Not an exclusive, gains the ability Shadow Tag but keeps its typing
- Mega Aggron – Exclusive to Y, becomes pure Steel-type and gains the ability Filter
- Mega Tyranitar – Exclusive to X and keeps the ability Sand Storm as well as its original typing
Garchomp Serial Code
In next month’s issue of CoroCoro there’ll be a serial code that will give you access to their special Garchomp. This Garchomp holds a Dragon Fang, knows Crunch, Dragon Claw, Dig and Draco Meteor. The location of its Mega Stone will also be revealed in the next issue – that is, if we don’t find it first.
UPD: New Mega Evolutions
Thanks to Serebii we now have some new information and pictures of previously unknown evolutions. Details in the spoiler box.
[spoiler]
- Mega Pinsir – Bug/Flying-type and has the ability Aerilate which turns Normal-type moves into Flying-type moves, X exclusive
- Mega Heracross – Stays Bug/Fighting, has the ability Skill Link, Y exclusive
- Mega Banette – Stays pure Ghost-type and has the ability Prankster
- Mega Medicham – Stays Fighting/Psychic and has the ability Pure power
Apparently at some point in the game Professor Sycamore will upgrade your Mega Ring so that it can detect hidden Mega Stones. They are only detectable, however, between 8pm and 9pm.

And the Final starter evos ?
love the majestic look AMG
All my yes!
Starters art work
http://goodras.tumblr.com/
official sugimori art makes everything look better. actually makes delphox look cool, but im still #teamChespin!!!!
Yeah the art for delphox is awesome! I’m still team chespin too 😉
I wasn’t really fond of Delphox when it first leaked but I gotta admit I like it a little more after seeing the Sugimori art.
Same ;D #teamfennekin!
Greninja’s yellow bothers me. It was looking better with white.
I was thinking this actually… strange how yellow it looks
#TeamFroakie or #TeamFennekin, that is the question.
easy: team chespin
#TeamGoomy
goomy is actually a pokemon lol
I was worried about chespin back when x and y were revealed but I must say Game freak did a excellent job this gen with the starter evos. Chespin becomes awesome in a way i never saw coming, froakie became EXACTLY what i wanted upon evolution(possibly my new favorite). I just cant wait to play this game every time a new pokemon game is launched i am beside myself with excitement and nostalgia
Mega Agroon looks like a tank!
Aggron*
What type is mega Gengar?
Poison/Ghost
Hmm I was expecting it to become a ghost/psychic due to the third eye.
HEHEHEH.. XY Roms have been dumped. Of course we have nothing to do with them: http://nforush.net/new-scene-releases.html
Tyranitar really got screwed over with its mega evo
I much rather prefer it over MegaAggron.
The fact that sand stream goes into effect when you throw out a non mega tyranitar into battle just seems a bit disappointing though, Mega tyranitar other than that one thing, is by far my favorite of the two
Well, if I’m guessing correctly, if you Mega during battle, your ability will reactivate, so you can have up to 10 turns of sand 🙂 Just a guess though.
good point i forgot weather abilities got nerfed this gen
wait how did they get nerfed
What!? Is there a link or written description of that?
Tyranitar keeps the same Typing and Ability. It was already a beast with those factors, if the mega gets an increase in stats (Attack and Speed, i’m pretty sure Tyranitar will still strike fear into opponents…
So Ttar is in fact in X, or Trollfreak puts tyranite in X and larvitar in Y lol
Those official arts of the starters are awesome! I loved all 3 from the beginning but was least fond of Delphox. Now, she’s right next to the other two for me!
Good, now people can shutup about Delphox not having the stick.
Delphox looks amazing in art. Glad the stick is back!
mega aggron looks epic. He will be a really tanky triceratops….sorry Bastiodon.
No!
Hey Bro! Day is coming closer!! I’ll be leaving PokeJungle.. Good luck with the game and enjoy yourself.
– “May we all become champions”
What?! No! Why’re you leaving?
xD I’ve been keeping at bay.. I don’t want story spoilers and such. And well, it is was leak season, I don’t -otherwise- hang out so much here. I’ll leave the Discus profile, and I might be back for trades and battles 😉 Will ping you or you me ([email protected])
I can confirm that Tyranitarnite can be found exclusively in X, and vice versa.
How about Tyranitar itself?
It’s found in Y! Version Exclusive!
Basically, they screw you so you have to go buy both versions.
Ah, time has not changed their tactics I see 😉 Tempted to buy both versions again with this gen…
…Or trade with a friend!
What am I talking about, I have no friends. xD
And who would give you a stone for free? 😛
Maybe if I offered something in exchange…LIKE SOME RARE PORKEYMANS FROM OTHER GENS?
Who knows!? Hah.
Good question. Who would give you a rock for no charge at all? It’s ridiculous.
Not Brock’s dad.
Maybe not for free but for a reasonable trade.
One stone for another (Aggronite for Tyranitarite)
Not if you have a friend(s), my friends is getting Y and I’m getting X so we are gonna give each other the things we want from each game. He wanted a CharizardIte X and I said I would only give him it if he gave me a treecko (treecko is my favourite Pokemon).
Who has friends though?
I’ve noticed that pokemon with vowels as the last letter have a mega stone have the suffix ‘nite’ and Pokemon with consonants as the last letter have mega stones that have the suffix ‘ite’. So I’m thinking, wouldn’t it be Tyranitarite instead of Tyranitarnite.
Now I love all 3 starters ;__; sugimori arts making things better but…chesnaught eyes… why they didn’t gave him eyes like these?! http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/276/e/0/chesnaught_by_xous54-d6p3eob.png
Ok from baisc-mid-final what are the gen 6 starters are base on?
Classic RPG Class System
Cool Final Fantasy type Pokemon.:D
Even though Chesnaught doesn’t look like a Paladin/Knight.
I think I like their design-norm for some mega-evolutions, which is random wing-like things going out of the body. It may seem bland to see same thing in most of them but I love how there is a certain style like how they gain those things when they have their full-potential. It’s something like some psychic types having gems. You know what I mean.
Greninja is 1.5m? I mean it’s like samurott and Delphox.. Really?
With his legs stretched out and his back unhunched, yeah?
No No No No No No No NO NOOOO !!! ;(((( GAME FREAK! Why you do this to me ??? Why you made chespin look like… not Chespin ;( …. Just….Why?
Pancake Bro, deep deep down in Chespin’s heart lies a great warrior, do not fight its evolution, Fight alongside it!
Oh my god I need both versions!
I already wanted them but
MEGA TYRANITAR!
Are they LITERALLY exclusives or their MEGA STONES can only be found in the different games?
If you are getting Y, I can help you out, but I can’t give Mega Charizardite X, reserved that for a friend of mine in exchange for a treecko.
thers many thing bothering me here Tyranitar – Exclusive to y not to x (from serebii) and mega gengar has shadow tag ability not the same
Its exclusive to x, many people confirm that
in serebii its exclusive to y
I know, but that could be a mistake :/
what ur argue of Mega Gengar ability,we saw it in this past spoiler
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD SHINY GRENINJA LOOKS AMAZING ARCEUS TAKE THE WHEEL
A true Shinobi.
I want to know how all these people are getting shinies. Is it possible through Pokemon-Amie? These are the things I want to know.
I doubt it
I don’t even know. I mean really all these shinies have been appearing and they are supposed to be rare.
it could be through breeding or photoshop
ive been playing pokemon for 6 years and ive never met a shiny… other than shiny gyarados… and ive even like kept running around in grass and counted battles to like 8000 and never found one.. mabye now i actually will
People are abusing the Pokeradar and shinies are just more common in this game. Masuda already hinted at that.
Doubt what?
soz the original reply was to whether pokemon amie will help increase the chance shinies
By luck! ;D
No, I mean all these new pokemon are shiny. I have 7 shinies, man. But I’m asking how so many pokemon are getting caught that are shinies, when they are rare.
I have no shinies 🙁
Do you have the pokeradar?
Masuda did say they were going to make them easier to find…
RNG Abuse
I have hunted shiny pokemon on youtube for the longest time ^-^ I currently own 37 shinies and my brother owns 36. We are just extremely lucky and have gotten MANY random shinies :3
I don’t know who it was, but someone from Gamefreak said that shiny Pokemon will be easier to obtain through a new method (I think). I think it was Junichi Masuda who said that, but I’m not sure.
thats right
Yes.
Wait, you get shinies through Pokémon-Amie?
No oops, my bad, i just meant that shinies show in pokemon amie.
I was hoping he was Purple so I could name him “Siarnaq” from Megaman ZX :0
Why couldn’t this be his normal colors…..so much awesome
This looks a tad fake to me. There’s a splotch of light blue on the upper right leg that seems out of place. I do like the colors though. But if this is legit, I wish the owner had taken photos of Froakie and Frogadier as well.
“Can you please explain to me how you think the shiny Greninja is fake?”
A question i was asked on tumblr after saying that it looks fake. Here is my reasoning.
Because it looks like a poorly edited screenshot to me. The fact that it changes two of his colors, (the pale yellow, and the blue) into the exact same black seems off to me, and has never been done in a shiny (making two separate colors the same one that is.) Also along the same lines is that the white on his body and the lighter blue on the back of his head do not even change color and seeing as how dramatic the other color change is that also seems off. Another reason is that in his tongue scarf there is literally no shading and when you get closer to the top edge of the black line of his sprite you can see thin lines of the original pink that is his normal tongue color. The tongue look as though it was poorly colored over using a photo editing software hence the lack of shading and the colors not going all the way to the lines.. The color scheme is also quite awful and poorly thrown together. Is that enough reasons?
Yeah, I think this is fake too. Though they did change two colors to the same color at least twice. Shiny Magnemite’s (and Magneton’s) magnet tips become the same color as the magnet itself. Still, what you say about the tongue definitely sounds like a good point. Faaaake.
*Goomy
wonder does it show if it shows the shiny model when you got to the choose your starter screen in x and y?
Gengar continues to look like it is not levitating. But, oh, ground moves can hit beedril, venomoth, and dustox…
Minor complaint!
mega gengar has shadow tag
it says above:
Mega Gengar – Not an exclusive, keeps the same ability and typing
Well that’s incorrect, it’s confirmed with Shadow Tag.
isnt shadow tag the hidden ability of gengar
check again
Serebii says Tyranitar is exclusive to Y and Aggron is exclusive to X, however i’m now hearing that the Tyranite(?) can only be found in X and the Aggronite(?) can only be found in Y. Have Gamefeak just trolled us, or has someone made a mistake?
but the cover shows tyranitar for x and aggron for y… maybe its a typo
I need to know the truth, cos this is literally the deciding factor on which version i get….arrgghhh…..
get x
I’m guessing the Aggron stone is exclusive to Y, but the Aron > Lairon > Aggron line can only be found on X.
So that must mean Tyranitarnite is exclusive to X, but the Larvitar > Pupitar > Tyranitar line can only be found on Y.
This saddens me. I’m gonna have to find people to trade with….
meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
What version are you going with?
I’m willing to trade a Larvitar for an Aron since I’m getting Y.
I’m just undecided right now…This is literally tearing me apart. I want Y for Yveltal, but i need just one more reason to get it, and i thought having TTar available would seal it for me…but TrollFreak strikes again. I’ll let you know what happens.
They really are giving most of the cool stuff to X, such as Mega Charizard X and Mega Mewtwo X.
Not that the Y versions are ugly, but honestly, I really want a black dragon-type, blue fire-breathing Charizard.
I think it is correct, and you have to trade the stone or the pokemon between games. And of course, as always, you have to trade Haunter to get a Gengar.
TrollFreak strikes again….
There are plenty of folks here that will trade an aron for larvitar or vice versa – no worries. It’s all about which stone you want, really.
Any more Mega Pokemon info yet?
soooooo, quick question can you see the item the pokemon is holding to trade mega stones. or is it still hidden
