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”.

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Mario Kart 8 by Malachite
IM ACTUALLY CRYING THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I’VE CRYED OVER ANYTHING DIGITAL INCLUDING POKEMON AND MOVIES OMG OMGOGMGOMGOGMGOGMGOG
That sad realization that Kalos got megas before Unova. #UNOshowlove
:O WOAH OMG YOUR RIGHT
OMG! I can’t breath! OMG!I’m so excited :D:D:D 😀 😀 I’m hyperventilating
Do you even breath?
I don’t know. This megas look AMAZING! I NEED THE GAMES NOW 😀
While typing???
You feel me!!!! Lol
So….. you can’t customize your character? I don’t care if that’s true, I’m just curious…
Everyone: NO NEWS, BOO!!!!
News: I’M HERE!
Everyone: WE HATE THE NEWS BOO!
Us: … Haters gonna hat
I totally hat.
Replace Us with GameFreak
I’m happy with the rest of the news. But they ruined my favorite Pokemon, I should be excited about that?
You can’t say they ruined it because of its ability!!!! :O
And it’s probably a good thing to use in doubles battles paired with a water type.
I’m a Singles player, and they did ruin it with that ability
if they buff it’s attack, we can spam leaf blade and destroy again!!! 😀
That’s your opinion. For some, it may be amazing, for some it may be cruel. No matter, it’s still your opinion and you should not flame when there is no need to flame.
There IS a need to flame for me. IMO they ruined my favorite Pokemon
Still, that’s your opinion. Complain somewhere else.
This is an open outlet, I’ll complain here
Complain, we just won’t hear.
Need to TalonFlame 😮
Graphics look the same. Cutscenes are probably better. But New battle background!
I kinda wish that M sceptile got Thick fat.. that would be amazing but we’ll see what lightning rods does to it
OMG!!! YES YES YES!!!! FINALLY OFFICIAL MEGA SWAMPERT AND SCEPTILE!!!! The abilities could have been better thoush, and we all knew Sceptile would be Grass/Dragon…BUT HORRAY!!!! One question still remains though…how is Mega Sceptile Offensively?
Given that it has Lighting Rod, likely mostly Special. Way to take advantage of the 3 types it gets on the Special side ;_;
F***!!!!! Maybe it will be Mixed?
;_;
You know what Sceptile needs, more special attacking moves. Don’t disappoint us, Troll Freak!
There’s always Move Tutors?
True, but troll freak also controls which move tutors apply. 😀
Why can’t they give it Power Gem :'(
That’s kind of “in general”. Why can’t they give one of the many special attackers out there Power Gem, and limit it to Rock-type Pokemon with garbage for special attack…
What happened with Archie D: D: D: D: D:
His outfit got Greninja’d
Archie got more buff, gained a mustache, and umm…got a really dark tan?
Hoenn has/is tied for the most Mega Evolutions now! 😀
Kanto – 12
Johto – 5
Hoenn – 12! (14 if kyogre/groudon get Megas [instead of form changes or something else] + whatever new ones we may get [Ludicolo & Shiftry *cough*])
Sinnoh – 3
Unova – 0 :c
Kalos – 1
We need megas from Unova :c
MEGA HYDREIGON!
Mega Chandelure and starters
Defensive will be disappointed in the new designs for Archie and Maxie 😮
Sooooooo
it’s a sequel then? 😮
because new grunts
new legend forms (not megas)
Steven is doing something different
Hoenn is my favorite region
Hoenn
I love how may looks
they combined her emerald + ruby outfit
I love it
brendan has an awesome outfit
I love it
I love it
Only bad thing and it’s small : sceptile’s ability
But I love it for who it is
not the color of its ability
They’re new forms AND Megas i guess o_o Idunno
I’m totally sure that is a sequel.
DJJA IM CRYING LITERALLY OMG I SHOULDVE RECORDED THAT MY VOICE IS CRACKING AND HUG ME THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE PJIBUAUNBIJ;nb ; J;B Ihb udpn;/ b
I SWEAR IT WAS LOUDER THAN HEAVY!!!!!!!
The thing is, it might be something suuuuper close to a mega, especially with the way it’s said in Japanese(groudon and kyogre).Prehistoric Regression is spelled in the same way megas are, which deviates a little bit from regular typing.
Do you like the new Shelly?
Also Steven has mega charizard X (like everybody else : important)
I would think the charizard form would differ based on the game 😮
Good idea
But their goes everyone’s hopes of Mega Metagross, Mega Aggron would of fit him more
I’m not even angry. I’m so used to having MegaZard X shoved in my face, that I just don’t care anymore.
TOTALLY LOVING THIS! HATERS BACK OFF, lol!
Waiting on fan art.
waiting on my drawing tablet
I have one but the little nib on my pen has pretty much worn away and i need a new one q.q
Why does Diancie have a mega :/ It doesn’t need :/
It’s design looks epic though! 😀
To confirm Kalos Megas
When was this post made?
~35 mins ago
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I SHOULDVE BEEN HERE EARLIER ;~; My sister was on, so.
According to Serebii, the new formes are regressions AKA DE-EVOLUTIONS :O That’s a thing now!! #deevolutions
Make sure to vote in the new poll! You can find it on the right side –>
Also join our forums! http://mountmoon.net 😀
I picked outfits.
This beats Mega Swampert. 😉
as happy as I am im even happier that my espeon has all the right moves and ev trained…i have my prioritys out of order
So what do you think the areas where Prehistoric Kyogre/Groudon are? (you can find screens of the ig battles in the top left and bottom middle of the scan)
Well, glad to see that we’re getting more news! 😀 But uhm, *twitch* where’s uhmm, *twitch* Mega Milotic? Next Corocoro? *twitch*
Mega Ludicolo and Shiftry 😐
You gon make me cry. ;_;
They need to happen
No thank you. 😛
This was only one corocoro and theres about 5 months left until release XD
But they are important! Diancie could have waited 😛
I’m guessing mega diancie is for X and Y tho
Hopefully with Batlle Frontier
Steven should be champ with mega diancie :3
but maybe he’ll only use charizard x when he battles with you in the mossdeep?
I think it is confirmed he isn’t…
Got your game back yet? I got the goods. 🙂
Laer today :3
K then, I’ll head off to sleep and then when I wake up (6-8 hours)
I like everything except
1. Mega Sceptile ability
2. Steven Has mega Charizard (no mega metagross or aggron for him)
3. MAYYYYYY!!!
Okay #3 isn’t real at all i love may 😀
3. Steven Not Champ
Aggron already Megas though
I know, I am saying he gets no mega aggron it fits way better than mega charizard X
Ah, got ya. Probably because GF thinks Charizard should be the new mascot over Pikachu
It might as well be.
NNOOOOO
It makes the game look to masculine
“Atleast we can see brendan has a hat and doesn’t have white hair!” -Random Person on Tumblr xD
Mega Sceptile’s design is soooo good. BUT WHY ;~; Pokemon like Aegislash and Whimiscott and more are gonna wall it so hard, Grass/Dragon gives it a 4x weakness to priority Ice Shard, Lightning Rod is useless in Singles, and it’s still Special based by the looks of it D:<
I’ll battle with you in doubles everyday :3
Because Troll Freak that’s why.
It’s okay. Sceptile was never that good competitively anyways! 😀 (sorry ;_;)
Uh, maybe as perhaps a positive outlook, maybe this means Tutor will be back since we all know Dragon Pulse > Dragon Breath, or maybe Sceptile can learn it via level-up. Otherwise, that new typing is useless
Doesn’t change the fact that its special movepool SUCKS 🙁 It gets three types on that side, Grass, Fighting, and Dragon. Unless you wanna include Hidden Power, that’s IT :'(
I was just trying to be positive for ya, bby 😐 Also, it can learn Hyper Beam 😉
If Troll Freak know what they’re doing they will:
1. Add more type variety
2. At LEAST increase its physical attack and it’ll be a mixed sweeper. Leaf Blade, Drain Punch, Dragon Claw. Crunch. X-Scissor. Iron Tail are already some of the cool moves it can get.
They better increase its Physical Attack to the point that it’s useful :'( Ugh, I’m sorry, I just can’t right now. Excited for the news, but Mega Sceptile just crushed it all 🙁
I LITERALLY SHOUTED OUT LOUD AND MY MUM GAVE ME A WEIRD LOOK AND I LOVE IT AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
