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














I just woke up and saw this.
Then I screamed in all my excitement,
Mega Swampert, while not Sap Sipper, doesn’t disappoint.
Can’t be disloyal to my first Pokemon ever.
EDIT: I’m a hypocrite though, I voted “Brendan and May’s outfit” in the poll. BWAHAHA.
Same but base 60 speed with swift swim is very underwhelming and I doubt it’s gonna get a speed boost If it looks like that
480 top speed at lv100 is more than enough.
It’s faster than Mega Alakazam without losing bulk.
It’s also faster than Scarfdevoir (particularly good for Doubles matchups).
And besides, Rock Polish Aggron and Regirock are beasts in singles. I expect no less from Swampert..
For those who didn’t see I made this
Refresh
Can we just appreciate and pay attention to things other than sceptile’s ability plz
This leak only magnifies my love for hoenn!
Like the team’s new designs!
I LOVE IT
Once battle Frontier is confirmed i will be 100% happy with the games
Mega Sceptile getting that Sp Atk boost when hit by lightning attacks will be SHWEEET!!!!
oops I said swampert i meant sceptile
Immunity to Thunder Wave at least 😀
Lol Hopefully it gets more special moves
I’m scared to look at Facebook comments. I pray they won’t be too harsh.
Facebook sucks.
It’s a good thing it’s basically dead now
I guess on the bright side, Sceptile will be the fastest Dragon ever (I think). But will STAB Dragon Pulse be enough to OHKO some of those might Dragon types? It’ll get a SpA buff no doubt, we’ll see
either of the attack stats will be a blessing XD
I think it will be enough to at least bring multi scale dragonite to red
You’d expect Mega Swampert would have an ability which would help its bulk but nah, Swift Swim. Same ability as Magikarp.
HOYL SHIT HOLY SHIT OMG OMG OMG OMG
That’s exactly how I reacted XD.
Mefa sceptile is beautfiul ;~: IM DYING
IKR!
WOW! AMAZING REVIEWS FROM FACEBOOK AND TWITTER. I NEVER THOUGHT THAT WAS POSSIBLE. 😀
Hoopa will also get a mega evolution guys! I’m calling it now. Its backstory says when it reveals its true power, its rings can extend miles long! And I’m positive they weren’t refering to Hyperspace Hole.
Don’t forget about Volcanion. 😀
Volcanion as well !!!! His says he has a secret power where two arms extend out its back or something
And Volcanion will get one! I’m calling it !
YUP! All 3 of them have 600 base stats and volcanions backstory has talk of a true power as well!
when i read the mega bangle i thought it said mega bagel XD
hoenn takes place in nyc cunfurmd
djja are you happy with the pics?
OMG SO YES!!!
I LOVE MAY SO MUH!!
I’m liking the teams’ redesigns, makes them look more intimidating.
GIVE US THE OPTION TO RIDE BOATS!!!!!!!! PLEASE GAMEFREAK, THERE! I FINALLY CALLED YOU GAMEFREAK! NOW GIVE US BOATS!!!!!!
May & Brendan have their Emerald clothes. So this means the game draws little influences from Emerald (hinthint, Delta Emerald WILL NOT be remade)
the only thing may has is the tanktop,
and brandans hat and shorts are different
BATTLE FRONTIER PLEASE COME
YUP ITS COMING I FEEL IT
Nintendo lied. They said, “FULL REMAKES!” Not, “PARTIAL REMAKES!”
I told you guys I wasn’t believing full on remakes. Me and Dija were both here tellin everyone they can’t be full on remakes they just cant lol. I’m so hype right now
same….. casually hopes for battle frontier XD
BATTLE FRONTIER PLZ
Its a good thing they did lie
I know! XD Wait, have I followed you yet? I’ll follow you right now! lol
I will follow you back 😀
😀
From experience, take everything with a grain of salt.
No they didn’t. They never said these are “remakes.” Everyone just assumed that.
no nintendo said they are full remakes of ruby and spahhire
however as i saidbefore, full remakes just means itll have everything ruby and sapphire had, it could still have more
They released a statement saying they were “full remakes.” I’ll try to find the link.
They are full remakes…simply enhanced! I can guarantee they are not sequels. They are remakes but if you look at FRLG…they had everything RBY had plus so much more and the same foes for HGSS. I am struggling to see where the confusion is coming from??
Too all the people that said we wouldn’t get new Megas, lol 😛
LMFAO! PUT THAT IN YOUR PIPE AND SHMOKE IT!!!
TC PM ME RIGHT IN THE CHATANGO
*makes joke made earlier*
My swampert…my beautiful swampert…now it’s your time to shine!…Metagross! now we need to find your stone!
Isn’t Diancie pretty much a Carbink on steroids? Dare I say, Mega Carbink? So does that make this, Mega Mega Carbink? O.O
My mind literally can’t process anything right now.. #MegaDiancie
I wonder if and how these Prehistoric/Primeval forms impact the story…
Im guessing that these forms were the forms of Groudon and Kyogre that originally crafted the land and sea and so Team Aqua and Magma cause them to revert to these forms in order to change the land and sea.
MEGA DIANCI, MEGA GARDEVOIR, MEGA MILOTIC = Married Trio. XD
Serebii calls them Primal Groudon and Kyogre. Could this tie in with Primal Dialga from PMD?
Welcome back wes :3
OMG
OMG
NEW MYSTERY DUNGEON CUNFURMEDDD
AND
OMG
SO TRUE!!!!!
Phantom Gate!
I pointed that out as well! 😀
I thought of that when I saw their similar yellow-ish patterned designs
WES 😀
and that makes me wonder since iw as oooking at kyogre and groudon’s new forms and notied they do look like primal dialga!
Im dying on mega scpetile and hw tsteven looks 0__0
overworld looks GREAT
and dont get me started on groudon and kyogre’s sprite 0___0
THE SPRITES ARE AMAZING!
Models. Sprites are 2D. Models are 3D. Sorry for the correction .-.
wait the seocnds pics are them doing moves or overworld models?
It’s a battle. I meant that anything 2D is a sprite. Anything 3D is a model 😮
Hey Heavy, Steven does’t get mega metagross but mega charizard X (hate it). :
At least mega Aggron
I just read that! But we don’t know the storyline though! HE could possibly be gifting the charizard X to us at some point in the game.
who says?
we dont know 100% YET
also that mega charizard pic isn’t have to be tied into steven but could be there for the mega ervolution hunting
cause why the lords name would steven have a LV 100 charizard?
No it is actually Steven’s
0-0 well that changes some theories
i still think mega metagross will be involved
My partial review of ORAS:
Sprites: 10/10
Mega Evolution: 7.5/10
Team Omega Aqua and Alpha Magma: 9.5/10
Dianci: 11/10 XD
Djja and Wes called it out. Primal being a connection to PMD. Djja said new PMD game. Remember, Phantom Gate was trademarked!
