Official Site Updates; Demo Reveals New Mega Evolutions

The official site for Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire has been updated with the details we saw in November’s CoroCoro issue and more!

Mega Steelix & Mega Glalie

Revealed in the demo are two new mega evolutions

Mega Latios & Mega Latias

 

A trailer of ‘Soar’ in action, ie: ability to fly over Hoenn, can be seen here on the main site.

Mega Pidgeot

 

Pidgeot Mega Evolves into Mega Pidgeot. The gusts it can whip up with its tough and well-developed wings are powerful enough to smash huge trees.

Upon Mega Evolving, its Sp. Atk gets a great boost. Take good advantage of its zippy Speed stat, and you can pummel opponents in no time flat. Its No Guard Ability means its attack will never miss—nor will attacks used against it. You can be sure of dealing damage even with moves that have low accuracy. – Official Site

Mega Beedrill

 

Beedrill Mega Evolves into Mega Beedrill. The poison it produces from its four limbs all work instantaneously, yet the poison it emits from its tail is slow-acting. It uses the former to prevent its foes from fleeing, and the latter to deal the finishing blow.

Mega Evolution gives its Attack and Speed stats an explosive boost. Adaptability is an Ability that increases the power of moves of the same type as the user from the standard 150% to 200%. Put it together with this Pokémon’s powerful Attack stat and aim for massive damage! – Official Site

  1. Nice to know that what i though was Tate and Liza was actually Tate and Liza and not a gym sign lol. Glad to have confirmation that they are in the game…. wonder why it has taken so long for the final 3 gym leaders to be officially announced…

  2. I’m kinda upset that there won’t be a patch for X and Y. But I’m more curious about what will happen if someone tries connecting to someone with the new games and megas….

  3. Oh man. I really want this game, so bad. But I’m kinda broke so I can either get Smash Wii U or Alpha Sapphire on the 21st and the other on christmas. I dont know what to get! What do you guys think? (BTW I know your gonna say Alpha Sapphire because this is a pokemon site but still)

  4. So based on the recent screenshots, it looks like there’s a bit of a storyline involving the Evil team with the Eon ticket. I’m really glad too because just going to the island to fight Lati@s and then capture it seemed really bland to me.

      • Well, they probably would show something dealing with mega evolution, which is confirmed to be linked to primal reversion, so maybe they want to analyze the data and learn a little more about their real target?

    • They confirmed the Eon Ticket as an event item, so I think it involves the evil team and the Eon Flute, as you can use it to summon Latios or Latias anytime you want.
      That’s probably what they want more than a ticket to a deserted island.

  5. I really do love the fact that X and Y will continue to influence pokemon games in the future, not only through in-game things like hordes, pokemon amie, and super training, but in the online world too, such as the pss, holo caster, and more!

  6. :’D
    I guess it will be fine without trainer customization…
    Also, what is the Trainer Club newsletter? Is that part of Club Nintendo? I don’t recall…
