Scans are surfacing of the latest CoroCoro issue and it’s a doozy! Mega Evolutions of Sceptile, Swampert, and Diancie have all been revealed along with other misc information 🙂
Details
Pokémon
- Mega Sceptile is Grass/Dragon with the ability Lightning Rod
- Mega Swampert’s ability is Swift Swim
- Mega Diancie’s ability has yet to be revealed
- Groudon and Kyogre’s new forms can be translated to either Primeval or Prehistoric. These forms appear to come from “nature’s energy”.
- The subtext for Groudon and Kyogre suggests new moves.

- Steven returns and is researching Mega Evolution
- Archie and Maxie are still leading Team Aqua and Team Magma respectively. Their Admins also return. All have received redesigned character art.

WOW!! I LOVE MEGA SCEPTILE!!
ARCHIE WHAT NO.
What no?
I don’t like his design.
Yay does that mean no archie based theme here?
I changed my mind. I like it now. And you can probably expect and updated Archie design. 😉
He no longer has your facial hair D:
I still don’t see how he did before. 🙁
I’m sure someone will still say he does…
Ah, so beautiful. Sceptile and Swampert’s Megas look very nicely designed. Good chance Sceptile gets a second typing based on how the design looks. Maybe Get TV will provide us with that. Swampert definitely getting some Def boosts 😀
As for the characters, Brendan and May have a nice light modernization, as well as Team Magma and Aqua. This is really looking like it’s going to be one amazing remake.
confirmed grass/dragon :3 (according to serebi & Nl)
Guess I should have read Serebii first lol :3 Thank you for that info though!
Woot woot corocoro! 😀
THIS… I THOUGHT I WAS READY?!
You just posted this lol
Were you not?
Ruined Sceptile with Lightning Rod. Awesome design, but why that ability :'( It could’ve been so much better D’: And it appears it’ll still be special based because of that, way to take advantage of that “fantastic” special movepool. Grass/Fighting/Dragon, woo
Im really liking Maxie (or who i presume to be Maxie)’s new design :3
Looks really science-y
He has glasses this time.
Picking Mudkip this time cause Mega Swampert is like U WOT M8? I’LL FITE U.
MEGA SWAMPERT BEEF!!!!!
MOVIE:
Dianci will need to enter it’s Mega form to rejuvenate the Diamond.
Now we wait to see their stat changes
I hope Mega Blaziken gets good Stat changes and keeps speed boost
If Diancie is getting a mega. Does that mean Volcanion and Hoopa will too?
Mega Diancie has a chandelier for a butt
And you have a Rock for yours
And Proud of it!
cannot unsee :/
Also, where is mah Johto Starters? D:
In Johto duhhhhh
No. I meant we should get Johto starters too cause of X and Y giving us Kanto and Kalos starters.
No, they gave us them to demonstrate Mega Evolution
Alongside Lucario
Also, Diancie first confirmed Kalos Mega. Interested if they’ll integrate it for more Kalos Pokemon
I’m still picking Mudkip. Just like the old days. Sorry Torchic and Treecko. =)
Atomic regression eh
I must do Reeeeesearch (5 points if you get the reference)
I see GaveFreak is changing everyone’s design, so much for “full on remakes”
I like the new Shelly
Imagine the new Gym leaders
Mega Swampert… Why?
HOW CAN U NOT LIKE THE BEEF!!!!!!
(Flexing psychotically)
Doing its best Groudon impression.
And failing miserably
This is great news to wake up to. :3
Not for TC
I’m crying :'( WHY LIGHTNING ROD
*Hugs more* I don’t know but some things we gotta with, and maybe it will be useful
Of all the things :'(
At least Prankster Thunder Wave won’t stop it.
Instead it’ll die to that Hidden Power Ice they also like to carry :/
What Thundurus uses Hidden Power Ice… oh wait, most of them. 🙁
:'((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
IT makes perfect sense, he needs electricity to light up the ornaments on his new Christmas tree Mega
TC be cryin. :/ I’ll PM him later, on mobile. xD
Kyogre and Groudon are Prehistoric regressions. Genshi means prehistoric and atom in japanese, in this case it’s clear that it means prehistoric, unless atom carries some prehistoric connotation, which I researched and found was minimum at best.
What could have caused this? Perhaps the orbs that were created for them in ANCIENT times? Detective Chico 1 – Life 0
the most i can relate atom to is Indivisible, Tiny, or (im doubtful about this…) Potential. Nothing relating to prehistoric, unless you want to count the fact that atoms are really really old…
Hmmmm it must have to do the atomic structures of the Orbs and some kind of interference via Aqua and Magma
I really don’t know what i’m saying but its bound to work!
Swampert now has Swift swim!
With that huge bulk i don’t think it should get an Ability that raises its speed
The bulk will already give it better defenses. The ability rounds it out.
I guess but It takes on turn set up rain, another for ability to kick in
Yeah i know but oh well. Rain Dance + Swift swim :3
Well, it now gives me a reason to have Rain Dance on my Swampert… I can compare it to Rock Polish Regirock or even Mega Aggron now.
Ehh i’ll take it
Sheer Force would’ve been fitting but i’m happy with whatever since he’s a freaking POWERHOUSE
Should’ve been Sap Sipper.
But I guess they don’t want Swampert to tank too hard…
Damn the team you face depends on which version you buy like the originals I wanted them both in it NOOO
Atomic Groudon and Kyogre may be a reference to the Atomic Age or Atomic Era. This age FOLLOWS the detonation of the first atomic bomb, Trinity during World War 2. Dramatic story for the game. 😀
And maybe Aqua and Magma use some kind of Atomic Powered devices strong enough to rattle the land and oceans and they inadvertently unlock some kind of primal energies within Groudon and Kyorge fusing the volatile energies thus resulting in these forms
Atomic?
Godzilla confirmed!
