Spent 8 minutes looking at a Scrabble dictionary and thesaurus seeing what ‘m’ word I could use as the verb in my headline. Certainly a bit of a stretch on my part, but The Pokémon Company has announced that missing Mega Stones will be awarded as entry prizes for upcoming online battle tournaments. Specifically mentioned were Mawilite and Beedrillite which are slated to be given out in late February.
This may be seen as a boon for some fans, while others may have preferred all of the stones simply being included from the beginning or even the ability to download them without the hassle of registering for a competition.
What do you think?
FEATURED DISCUSSION: All Sun and Moon QR codes










What the hell! Why couldn’t they just release a patch that allows us to find them like in postgame XY and ORAS?!
yeah like it isn’t hard to implement that into the aftergame >:(
The problem with this method is that people will enter and get the stone, but won’t actually participate beyond maybe one or two battles.
yeah that makes sense……..no
What the hell is your profile pic?
um it’s a yokai. specifically a yokai named BEN TOVER.
Wow… the puns tho.
yeah like nosirs is a pun from the big noses of the trio
They want people to participate in their contests.
Would’ve been better if they could just patch them in but at least there’s a way dedicated players can get hold of them.
If you want those megastones….
You must need to fight for them!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA
yeah like NO PAIN NO GAINing of the megastones 😉
You mean mega stones, we ain’t fighting to win a WAL-MART dude.
yeah i’m not battling the WHOLE H.E.B store for a AUDINITE >:(
Autocorrect dude.
I know, I just wanted to make a joke. 🙂
HAHAHAHAAHAHA YESSSS
OH MY GOD YES
THIS IS THE BEST
MY BABY BUNNY IS GETTING HER MEGA BACK
WHOO MEGA LOPUNNY IS BACK WOOOOOOO!!!
THE ONLY MEGA THAT MATTERS TO ME
YEAH THAT MEGA AND MEGA CHARIzARD Y ARE BAE
FERST
Yeah, no that was me.
Me in spirit ;3
Ok, I’m fine with that (:
Yea boiiill
I’m just sitting here waiting for a Marshadow event while everyone else is flipping their shit for mega stones
YES PLEASE
yeah I would like a marshadow event now but whatever.
Me too, Marshadow is the only thing missing from my life
And my Dex
Exactly
…Why the fuck is Mawile first …. kms
Because Mawile is awesome >:)
It’s annoying
And awesome
Ugh…..so basically I’ll have to enter another battle tournament without being totally ready in order to get something I want lol
look at this noodle of a man https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ef0f48c7ed83a7768ae4afb84e02a3e182b523ef7790979f7e93619df65c74ea.png
Tbh I don’t care about the megas besides Altaria
yeah I would like to get the mega stone for mega charizard y now but the people at gamefreak might of forgotten to put EVEN that megastone >:(
OH BOI
what????
uhmm… You can the Kanto starters’ Mega stones in the game. Just beat Red at the Battle Tree is regular Singles.
oh i didn’t look it up when i typed that comment. sorry
I NEED my fluffy death birb!
Don’t we all
What about Flyg-oh wait
Yeah… GF dropped the ball HARD with that
Kill me
I thought you were already dead
Hehe, puns
Meh, I don’t mind having to register for the competitions (I’ve managed to always secure my entry in past ones where I also only wanted to get the gift) and lose all the battles just to get the stones.
It just confuses me why couldn’t they just include all the stone in the game in the first place. Why have all this convoluted process for something that was their main campaign just one gen ago?
Like, they have the Primal Orbs, the Sinnoh trio Orbs, the DNA Splicers, etc. in the game and none of the respective pokémon appear in S&M, so why did they do it differently for Megas? It’s pure non-sense.
I just hope it doesn’t take the whole Gen to get all the stones.
wait a MINUTE do you capture ALL pokemon for the sun and moon pokedex EVEN MARSHADOW
or other mythicals???
You don’t need to have Marshadow or Magearna to complete the dex
THANK YOU. I WAS GOUNG TO GIVE UP POKEMON IF THAT WAS THE CASE
No problemo
alrighty then
I don’t care for megas 🙂
Same!
Again

Found this, thought I’d share https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5e8d8dc5521d6eb52a83d7c4ece3663ef27e10530894ce82cafe4970c5a1acfd.jpg
Brick smartest person on pokemon confirmed
Yep, if you think about it, their actually pretty easy to beat.
If anyone can do trade backs with me I would really appreciate it. I just need buzzwole for my dex and I’m having a hard time on the GTS. My Fc is 0087-2682-3542
I can help
0190 2718 2700
Thank you!
You’re welcome
That Mii tho
I’m in
Wait nvm, I don’t have a Buzzwole.
Sorry for that 🙁
Thanks at least I have you Fc now see there’s a silver lining in everything!
Soooooo, I’m trying to think of a space plant and struggling
Petey Piranha wearing a space helmet.
just steal from no mans sky lol
XD oh
so many “Randomly” generated stuff you could easily make a mon out of something
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f9f16f81987360c69696cd600d4eee73ae1eed44ad7a0dcf4a10bff215024c8d.gif
I sadly bought the LE of the game :/
Wait, what’s a LE?
Limited Edition
Wow, that must suck :/
Yeah :3
One of those procedurally generated and extravagant plants
i have one Xyroflora from my somewhat abandoned game idea Xyronauts
a living species of alien plant that my alien armada shoot own onto planet’s surfaces, the seeds quickly grow and come alive, they spray out a noxious cloud of spores which convert the native atmosphere into something the Xyronauts can inhabit
Hmm
Can anyone else help me with my pokedex? buzzwole is the final one I need and I’ll trade it right back.
I was about to say I could and then I remembered that I’m in the middle of an SoS battle… :/
No prob, I’m the same way. I’ll come on here while in a SoS chain and someone will post that they need help and I’ll think ” I can help with that!” Only to remember I’m chaining, but at any rate I’m sure I’ll get it by the end of the day just wish GTS was more reasonable.
Maybe I’ll find the shiny soon and be able to help you out 😮 I have some extra buzzwoles that are just sitting in bank anyway..
Well I wish you the best of luck! btw what are you looking for?
Shiny Drifloon! Drifblim is one of my favorite shinies, I want it so bad. This is my first sos chain for a shiny too. Just got the charm a few days ago.
Their shiny forms are really nice.
Yeah I’m hoping this chain doesn’t take too long..
So I got an idea
A space squid who stays inside of a space helmet for its first phase. The next one it breaks the Helmet and Gains a glassy look to its one eye. It also grows a bunch
Yes, more alien Pokemons
😀
How does it sound
It’s pretty cool 😀
Yay!
Grows as in size
Got an area idea for Pokémon Acid and Base:
The Sea of Sand
‘The presence of the Fire Elemental has completely rendered this island as a desert, despite being just off the coast of the relatively mild *PokéEngland*. Pokémon from other regions have been transported here in order to preserve them’
Pokémon found here are (semi)aquatic creatures that are associated with sand in Pokémon – Hippopotas, Gible, and Sandile, along with their evolutions. This desert is also inhabited by the regional Sandygast, which consists of the spirits of those who died in the desert and resemble sandy monsters infused with glass and are found in the hottest depths of the desert. Rock/Ghost.
Fire Elemental’s design hasn’t been finalised yet, but it will be associated with magma, glass and flame, being Fire/Rock.
Is this zone based out of a real pace of the UK?
Nah, it’s just a little island added in to house a legend and a few more non native ground types
Btw I googled translated it into 10 different languages(because I’m bored) and this came out:
The presence of elements of fire, the sea of sand is “relatively stable, despite the fact that they meet the beach PokéEngland island: I think the mountain box, and based on Pokemon, Gibbs Hipopotasu-boom * Pokemon other here Transfer to area schützen.Pokemon sand shoes. (Half) water biological connection, you can see the desert people, deep sandy spirit die desert monster-like desert and glass sand. Design elements rock back / fire spirit, still full development But, lava, fire, flame glass / rock connection.
Beautiful ;-;
It is
Deep sandy spirit die
Gibbs Hipopotasu-boom
That’s my favourite digimon
Same
OoooH!
Eh, I guess I prefer this to having to buy them with battlepoints. It is *just* an entry prize. You don’t even have to battle well.
This is so dumb. And the wonder why most people use pkhex
Or powersaves
yeah i would cheat in items that otherwise would be impossible to get in the game.
From the lore standpoint of they’re posed to be these rare things, I kinda get it, but what abut the people who can’t enter the competitions?
Do you guys think they made incineroar’s design a wrestler to compliment Kukui’s “masked royal” alter ego? Cause if you choose Rowlet, he uses one and I’ve always kind of thought that there are starters that each character is meant to possess from a story standpoint.
Never thought of it like that but tbh, protag picking Decidueye (most popular, fitting the protag role) Kukui picking Incineroar (wrestler theme) and Hau picking Primarina (he’s always jolly and Primarina is the most lighthearted starter out of the three) it fits really well
That’s what I was thinking. Seems to make decent sense and explain torracat’s sudden transformation
Ehh I wouldn’t call Torracat’s design change sudden, but it certainly wasn’t obvious. I felt like it gradually becoming more and more temperamental and the underlying theme of cats being notorious for fighting and being assholes kinda naturally lead to the wrestler route
A little. Maybe I’m letting my bias show.
Yes, yes you are
We all are tho so it’s perfectly fine
I’ve grown to somewhat like Incineroar, but not a tremendous amount. Still progress.
TBF there’s nothing wrong with not liking it, it’s just if you keep bashing it (which you haven’t been doing) and not try to like it that it gets annoying for other people
There aren’t too many pokemon I actively bash. Only a good lil’ handful 😉
TBF if you’re bashing them they probably deserve it
Oh yes, they certainly do
Which ones? 😮
Alolan Golem
Hypno
Tympole and Palpitoad
Chesnaught (I know people here like it, sorry in advance)
Tbh I like most of them, tho Golem is Ironically
Hypno is just creepy af tho
Its nose…I can’t handle it. I just can’t. I’m fine with something being creepy like araquanid, but if it’s creepy AND ugly, that’s where I draw the line.
Araquanid is adorable
also dewpider
Yeh
I love Araquanid but I don’t find it adorable in any shape or form
Look at its face
And in Refresh it jumps around :3
I’ll take a look after =3
I love my 5’11 spider
Me too buddy me too
😀 yay
Drowzee was robbed
Honestly might dislike drowzee more
Another reason why picking Decidueye Is the best choice
Eww no
Everytime I see people talking trash to Decidueye, this song plays on my mind:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nT7_IZPHHb0
Me when people trash Incineroar
Doesn’t deserve it smhhh
Well,I’m glad I’m not the only one here who doesn’t hate Incineroar.Or rather,doesn’t hate on Incineroar?
Random, but okay xD
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8a7a0a431082c4adf91526fe2e89db45fec638f628305d022b175886a1f7bd72.gif
Jeebus!
And the protagonist also being silent like Deci
The theee fit each person perf
Okay no that bugs me how well it fits
What do you mean with Deci being silent, Everytime it comes to battle or faints it screams for some reason
So I made a space shark and a ghost UFO…. yay
Yass
Tell us more plz
Okay :3
Elgyem is in the game and gets another evo
Yass
I dunno what else I should say though
Any hint for the inspiration
For which one?
Elgyem who
*evo
I actually haven’t thought bout that one much
YES, I love Behehyeheyem 😀
Or however you call it
What about alomomomomomomola?
Or Regigigigigigigigiggigigigas?
I was gonna post that :O
😀
That’s what I should call the evo xD
Noice, but what about the SPACE WHALES!!!!!!!!
Ahahhahahahahahh
You think I didn’t plan that already? :3
Yay more alien mons, I suggest you to make the moon explorable in your region 😀
I think that’s what I’m doing, or some other unexplained planet. I have a planet planned though, you get abducted
Wow, Best pokemon game confirmed :0
XD
I wish I could make it
Same XD
is decidueye SOOOO pure trash then IF a gastly with shadow claw can 1-shot it then it’s pure
and utter trash.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nT7_IZPHHb0
T-T
Btw, why did the post got deleted by a moderator?
I looked it up decidueye can get 3 shot which is a good sign
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ff3025cc088b43b0ea1f5c15b3b6f180f4bc731cf801db19e785254ac0b6ec35.png
In all fairness Deci isn’t meant to take physical attacks, its physical bulk is laughable (78/70)
yeah but it works well in it’s own right.
Mostly as a BPer or a Trapper tho, which don’t usually encounter Gastly :3
i know but i know that gastly has horrible attack stat for a ghost tupe
Hey, could be a LOT worse (Komala says hello
It could, but at least Komala has the excuse of being a smol bab
True
Tbh, 78 HP isn’t the worse…. the defense stat is the issue
One less HP than Blastoise…. that’s actually really weird
Tbh was expecting it to be the bulkiest starter but apparently being a mixed attacker was a thing
Oh, I knew it wouldn’t be
I can say right now…. Deci would be so much better if they just gave it ONE move
Flamethrower? 😮 :p
No no no
Leech seed (And ideally aromatherapy)
I did some testing in Stabmons.
With Shackle, seed, aroma, and roost the thing can stall for days
I can see Leech Seed (it gets Synthesis) but it really doesn’t suit Aromatherapy because it isn’t flower based or medical based
True true, that can be switched with toxic
But seriously, why does it not have leech seed, its so good!
Tutor hopefully, with Knock Off for Incineroar and recovery for Primarina
They all will be better if so, perhaps all UU
Fun fact: Incineroar does not get fire punch for some odd reason
Prim I see getting wish
TBF Emboar didn’t and it’s Pokedex entry mentioned it
Wish is learn able by a lot of Fairies so I sure hope so
Good 😀
yay 🙂
my own opinion I feel like The Pokémon Company could have released SOME of the Mega Stones via online competitions while others (majority) could have been added to the Battle Tree Prize area and SOME for sale at Kahuna Olivia’s shop in Koni Koni City. I think it would make the Trainers much happier if they were distributed through different “avenues” within the game.
Yo assholes this is how my Deci run is going to work
I’ll tell you when I’m away to catch the Pokémon, I ask you guys for nicknames, and then I give the wheel decide a whirl
To start off: what should I give my Rowlet? Male and female names plz
Okay!
Male: Mordecai (Like mine)
Female: Thorn
If yours gets picked can I call it Mordecai Jr.
Yes :3
Male:
BeethovenBowty :3 (with the “:3” included)Female: Hawkeye
Wait no, call the female “deep sandy spirit die”
Male: Pig
Female: Celeste
Why pig?
