July CoroCoro LEAKING! Mega Sceptile, Swampert and more!

 

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.

  1. Wait i just realized something, anyone suspect that mega diancie might be shown in the diancie and the cocoon of destruction 0___0
    this reminds of a time when we saw the trailer and thought we saw diancie was gonna mega evolve, maybe it actually will!

    • LOL WELL DUH!! THIS is why I was going crazy all this morning saying I called it two months ago. My avi is the screen shot from the trailer that I said Diancie was mega evolving in the movie and everyone tried to say it was using diamond storm

  2. Didn’t game freak said they watch the national finals and input things in the pokemon game to balance it out? (i.e. Fairy to balance out dragon) So maybe mega Sceptile is game freak way of balancing out Rotom wash since it’s one of the most used pokemon

  3. So Diancie is Kalos’ first Mega Pokémon.. interesting…
    Wonder if there will be any from Gen 5.
    Mega Zekrom and obligatory Mega Reshiram. :p

  4. So, i was wrong. It might be Steven’s. What threw me off was the shading on the HP bar. Which made it look like an extra letter so i assumed it was EXP.

      • …except for the part where it’s near identical? I mean, is this sarcasm? lol

        The only change is they removed the second pants he was wearing, which was the dumbest thing ever.

        The only other changes to his design:
        -His polo is button up now, like how it appears in Ruby instead of Emerald
        -His face looks different, because it’s been twelve years and the art style has drastically changed in the time since. Grey eyes for character customization.

          • loooool

            So what you’re saying is, even though the design itself is near identical, you’re taking umbrage with, what? The fact he drew it again? That he can’t afford a time capsule to ask 12 years ago Sugi to do it instead?

          • I’m hardly irritated by the fact. I just don’t like it, as simple as that. Whether it’s down to a complete design change or a style change makes no difference. If I think the design is bad, I think the design is bad.

          • This isn’t a “your opinion is wrong” deal. I’m not saying you’re not entitled to your opinions, I’m just saying you’re making very little sense.

            Little has changed in the design. The only way to fix what you have now specified as what makes it “easily the worst male trainer design” is time travel, meaning your expectation is unrealistic. Meaning the design was doomed to fail no matter what.

      • Yeah I’ll admit Brendan and May’s new outfits are a bit lackluster.

        On the potential bright side, they keep clothing customization? Fingers crossed.

  5. @miniryu_ninja:disqus @heavymetallamb:disqus @slipperysceptile:disqus @TheHipsterNatu&Liza I think we should wait until we get the official art so I can make your avatars because these pictures are too low quality. And it’s only like 3-5 days before we get official information revealed internationally. I hope you guys don’t mind 🙁
