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.

We’ve received our copies of Pokemon X & Y, so be sure to check out our coverage of Pokemon X & Y for everything and anything Gen 6!

bannetes megaevo is so amazing it could be its evolution! 😀
So, there keeps being mentions of “Xerosic” to do with this game.
I just realised I have no idea what it refers to…
Could someone help me out here please 🙂
he’s one of the antagonists, apart from lysandre
Okay, thanks! 🙂
From the context I guess he’s a mad-scientist type.
Does anyone know what level Floette evolves?
i mean floette
Flabebe= Lvl:19 = Floette = Shiny Stone=Florges
I think a shiny stone?
yawn… good morning jungle! 😀
Good morning! 🙂
loving mega pinsir and mega banette! hopefully banette will see some more use, its my favorite ghost type!
Likely. Everyone has been raving about Mega Banette, with good reason too!
I really like those two, especially Mega Pinsir for some reason. Really looks good in my opinion.
My friend hated Mega Pinsir and I don’t get why.
Is it just me or does Mega Banette look like or even Remind you guys of Bayonetta?
yes! according to serebii SPOILER

The battle mansion will have 4 “frontier brain like bosses! yes GF, this is awesome!
Serebii isn’t loading for me…
YES. I am ok with this.
ok I have a stupid question, so bear with me here. alright, if I check “my disqus” for replies to my previous comments, and it puts them at the top of the conversation, am I the only one who sees them there? I mean I really don’t want to bother everyone with posts from 8 hours ago… 🙁
Don’t worry, only you see them.
Yes, just you. My comments are set to order in “newest”, so I don’t accidentally reply to something old.
its only you 🙂
MEGA MEDICHAM IS BOSS!
http://www.serebii.net/megamedicham.jpg
Looks so weird.
Looks like a typical Fighting type Mega Evo IMO
Looks like it comes out of the Arabian Nights
I think that’s the design’s basis.

pokemon found in x version and pokemon found in y verison
and its got PURE POWER! thats like Huge power but it doubles the attack stat instead 😀
It’s always had that…
oh lol sorry
Nah, it’s still amazingly awesome. It has some pretty high attack now, with Pure Power 😀
Does anyone know about the sparkling patches in the ocean?
It replaces Bubbling Water and Moving Grass from Gen. 5 I think.
That’s what i thought. Don’t have surf yet so can’t check for myself 🙁
You have the game? *pouty face incoming*
Indeed i do! Currently nearing the final stretch of the LONGGGG road from the 1st to 2nd gym. I can seeeee it.
Is it the good kind of long wait?
Oh yeah, amazing! Soo much to see and do. One thing has just come to my mind though….if it takes us players this long how long is it going to take Ash in the anime lol
Ash has gotten better with how long it takes him. But it probably will take him a long time.. XD
Well Snowpoint to Sunnyshore took over a year lol… im thinking 5 seasons at least hahaha
Dang! It took him that long?
Yup! and Eterna to Vielstone wasn’t far off either and Santalune to Cyllage has take much longer in the games than any of those and that includes the Galactic storyline in DPPt lol
My my, Ash needs to be faster.. Admittedly, I didn’t know this.
But really it allowed time for story and character development so i hope they don’t rush. I want everything iv’e seen in game to be used and not passed over for speed. That was the main issue with the BW series..
Yeah, I prefer good development in good arcs. Not just one episode a buck. Ash had time to grow a good team, have great relationships with his friends and rivals. Sinnoh was were he felt the most mature. BW just made him an idiot who can’t battle for anything. The only Gym Leader battle that I thought was outstanding was Clay’s…
Indeed. I loved AG and DP because he had that maturity and experience. BW was rushed and felt like it was going backwards rather than forwards in terms of development. Plus the development for his pokemon was AWFUL, he caught too many and bar a couple they never got enough screen time. I hope this time is different. From what iv’e seen so far it looks really good and has that AG feel to it so here’s hoping 😀
Poor, poor Palpitoad…
Please…it’s too hard 🙁
His team would have been so awesome if they had gotten enough development. Krookodile was the only one with decent development. The rest never got their battles to show their prowess. 🙁
I had such hope for Scraggy and Leavanny….
Leavanny was one of his best battlers, but didn’t get that screen time for good measure. It’s a shame, since I liked Leavanny’s personality..
Can someone be nice enough to reply to this with a picture of mega banette? Thanks. 🙂
😀 Refresh….
Thanks! <3
<3 <3
waking up to seeing banette’s mega form… it’s so freakin cool~
Cant wait to play Pokemon Y. 😀
Hey guys, just putting my FC out there in case anyone would like to play with me!
FC: 5069-4146-2461
Just reply and I’ll add you back!
Love that you get to pick which colour of bicycle you can have 🙂
I chose you, bicycle color!
Yaaaahhhhhh! I caughttt a YELLOW BICYCLE!! Pika pikachuuu.
How many options do you have?
Just 2. Yellow or Green but its better than no options at all.
It sure is! =]
The music in the Boutique’s is soooo awesome! My favourite music so far i think 🙂 Now to buy me some smancy new clothes.
What do you think of the Gym Leader theme?
It’s really good too. All of the music in the game is amazing. It reminds me a lot of the music in Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness. Soo good!
It feels kinda underwhelming for me, but is rather good. Just doesn’t have that umph I love about Gym Leaders. Kinda saddened there’s no Gym Leader’s Last Pokemon theme this time around.
I LOVE those soundtracks. So awesome.
You Get Rest and Sleep Talk together. Handy 🙂
For Snorlax, correct?
Just in general. Im not using Snorlax 🙁 I caught it but im only using 1 non Kalos Pokemon on my team for this run.
Me as well. I would have used a Fairy type, but there wasn’t enough dual typed new ones for me to use.
My Team will be:
Greninja
Charizard
Aegislash
Heliolisk
Auroris
Sylveon.
Just need to find Eevee now 🙂
Great team! Good balance. And I guess I’ll put mine down XD
Greninja
Venusaur
Chandelure
Hawlucha
Tyrantrum
Heliolisk
Nice balanced team 🙂
Thank you 🙂
The fact that the O-Powers guy always seems to want to meet in a Hotel bedroom for “Bonding Time” is slightly disturbing…
Do you have access to Super Training yet?
You have it from the start.
Oh… lol
Pedophiles confirmed!!
I dont know why…
You beat me to it! XD
Hahaha!
He reminds me of that Pikmin 1 boss….
I just don’t understand the horn?
It’s so straight. I don’t like it, but it’ll do I guess.
Yeah… And it hasn’t got the best face tbh..
It has a Magmortar feel to it, but I like Magmortar, so I’ll eventually get used to it (I hope)
I don’t see Magmortar as well, heck, I barely see Heracross in it!
With the arms, I see I little bit of how Magmortar design wise, but besides color scheme, it doesn’t look very much like Heracross.
Refresh to see Mega Heracross.
emmm..WOW thats a transformation and then some…
o___o
Best describes our reactions.
Is this for realsies??
Yep, Serebii found it. Exclusive to Y
Oh all I saw on serebii were Mega Pinsir and Banette….
Most hideous mega evolution ever.
My main and only real issue is that it lost it’s signature horn. It’s what made it Heracross.
They gave it a new signature horn alright, then a bit more.
Megahorn will hurt a lot more now, that’s for sure!
Better get a boost in Attack, like, a biiiiiiiiiiiig boost.
And a nose.
is that.. a nose??
Yeah hahaha
Same thought here…
Makes it look so weird
I hope it’s a long horn but because of angle looks like eggplant nose.
along with the ‘hair’ it looks even weirder.. horn’s fine though
NO one of my favourite pokemon got the one mega evo I hate the most till now =/
Why’d they have to make him look all big and ugly, they just should’ve went the Blaziken/Lucario way imo.
I guess they were just trying to be creative.. Heracross is probably my favourite Bug type so this was largely disappointing. I much rather Mega Pinsir.
Yeah I kinda like it.
I just realized I haven’t posted up my FC yet, so here it is: 4557 2463 2287
My name is Trevor, by the way (in case anyone didn’t know!). I’m 25 and I live in New York City. I’ll be picking up both X & Y tomorrow, so I hope to have new friends that I can battle, trade, and make connections with 😀
Just got a message from my gamestore like literally 7 seconds ago wich told me I am allowed to pick up my copy of Pokemon Y now, can’t explain how happy I am at this moment
You lucky person :_;
That’s awesome man, have fun with it! I can’t get it for another 12 hours at least!
What happened in the last 10 hours? 🙂
God farted on us and gave us Mega Banette, Pincir, Medicham, and Heracross.
Megas. Heracross, Banette, Medicham and Pinsir.
