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. Really want to use mega pidgeot in a contest, just looks so beautiful, which is another thing; side note but I think they should have a pokemon contest world championships thing, I would love to be called “Top Co-Ordinator Gritree” 2015. For sometime people have wanted contests back and now they are, so I think contest battles are an excellent addition, and don’t forget they want that pokemon tekken thing to be part of the championships eventually

    • Contests are good because they’re not as infuriating as competitive battles and give everyone a chance to have fun competitively.

      • Exactly, one thing is I believe contests in game are 4 ways, starting off I guess that’s not a problem, but I think that towards the end 1v1 would be better, but that’s just me.
        Plus, contests if they are the same as they were would be a game of strategy like proper battles; you know – they used that move do I use this, they appealed t that judge do I do that, do I stop the voltage with a different style move, its just awesome

      • Not really,
        they’re breeding for contest natures
        contest moves and combos
        and the hunting down of the rarest berries to fully maximize their sheen
        if contests were online, peeps would just be hardcore competitive as the rest of us

  2. I finally got the demo. It’s really hard for me to remember that I still have to wait more than a month for the real thing to come out. Also for those who have the demo as well, even though you stopping getting things from the demo after the tenth adventure, remember that it said that if you played the demo everyday before the release of the full game, something special would happen. Personally, I plan to do ten adventures a day in the demo to somewhat satisfy my want for this game and to make sure I play it everyday. Does anyone else here have the demo and if so, are you pleased with the graphics of it?

    • I got mine today as well! And I plan on playing every day too. Now for the graphics: I think they did a great job on them. The trailers already showed us how vibrant the games will look and if the demo is an indication of what is still to come, I can only be satisfied 😀 The other thing that really gets me hyped is the soundtrack. Damn, its funky! :p Oh, the nostalgia..

  3. I can totally see people running protect on mega Glalie. Get a free Moody boost before mega evolving, maybe even a second boost if you can predict a switch.

  4. It’s highly unlikely, but I wonder if the reason America is getting the demo last is because we will get a different Pokemon from other countries. Otherwise, I’m expecting to receive Mega Steelix.

  5. Alright! Speculation time! 😀
    Considering the delayed date for NA, do you think we could have a new mega on our hands? If so, what do you think it will be, excluding what is highly demanded, i.e. Mega Milotic, Mega Flygon, etc. It may not even be a Hoenn mega.
