Are they just randomly picking pokemon out of a hat to get a mega evolution? So random.

Is there suppose to be a specific order? O.o

Well no, but these picks just seems kinda random.  Pidgeot and Beedrill make sense,  they are pretty iconic being from the first gen. 

Steelix and glalie are just so out of the blue, for my taste at least.

There is your answer right there "for my taste at least."

Besides Steelix is a pretty popular pokemon amoung those 4 if you exclude original 151 arguement :P

Besides if they did it in a way like your thinking (popular pokemon and/or gen 1) then how can they proceed with future installments? If they put only pokemon the majority cares about in the first 2 games, the others wont have good pokemon to choose from.

Example, imagine if they did every starter with a mega. It be awesome no doubt but that'll leave out different scenarios with future installments, such as Diamond/Pearl Remakes that could be with Gen 4 starters :0
