Forums - Nintendo - Your three favourites MEGA evolution in XY

So after around 10 months of play, what are you favourite mega evolution in the game? Mine

1) Mega Gyarados: Not only I always liked Gyarados a lot, but this mega evolution is ont of the most strategic one. Gyarados can be a defensive or offensive pokemon, while the Mega is purely offensive. Your opponent has no way to know if you will turn mega Gyarados or not, and the weakness are totally different for the mega evolution. Often opponent will try to stone edge Gyarados to only find Mega Gyarados laughing at their attempt while starting to draco danse. Mega Gyarados has in addition of an improved attack, a great special defense and a reduced vulnerability to electric. There is no OHKO by electric move with that spec defense now.

2) Mega Charizard Y: While Charizard became totally irrelevant, this mega evolution bring him back to life. Basically, with drought, solarbeam and his stellar special attack, he is the fire pokemon that says  FU to all the water pokemon. The first thing you know in pokemon is that Water beat Fire pokemon. But Chrizard Y beats 99% of Water Pokemon with solarbeam. Drought also make fire move much stronger. Charozard Y become one of the best special sweeper and deal with annoying threats such as water motisma and Azumarill with ease.

3) Mega Heracross: The third one was tougher to pick, but I like Mega Heracross for its design, it truely looks like a beast with herculean force, and indeed he has it. Skill link is a great ability for him as he can have now a 125 STA physical insect move, as well a strong rock and grass move with always 5 hits. Not to mention that close combat annilhate almost everything that don't resist fighting and that megahorn still exist for standard Heracross. Witht he right set up, it's a great pokemon.

 

Feel free to comment or post your picks!

Bonus:



Mega Pharamp? I always thought it was quite a random mega evolution with little benefit?

Mold breaker as an ability fit Mega Gyarados much more as it allows him to OHKO a Dragonite through multiscale with Ice Fang or hit hard Pokemon who levitate with move like Earthquake.

In no order...

Not only does Mega Gyarados have amazing looks, and a wonderful typing (I love Dark types!), but that latter part actually helps with my all Dark teams that I play with. Gyarados can switch in on a Fighting type and nullify it with its flying typing, phase it out, and then Mega Evolve to add some added firepower. Great Pokemon. ^_^

Mega Banette is just one amazing looking Pokemon. It takes the puppet/doll design and really fleshes it out in a neat way. Great design.

Mega Houndoom just looks like what the original should have been. Amazing design and can hit like a truck in the sun. Plus he's a dark type so that works out too.



Mega Blaziken: My favorite starter of all time, and speed boost is amazing.

Mega Aggron: The pure definition of a physical wall.

Mega Lucario: Badass design, and is powerful.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
