We now know a little more about 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon Legends: Z-A than we did a month ago. The biggest reveals at the Pokemon Presents were the real-time battling and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:starter Pokemon, but both were almost overshadowed by the announcement of , which will 168澳洲幸运5♋开奖网:change the way we play Pokemon forever.

The trailer understandably held a lot back, but gave fans enough to chew on. I♚’ve already picked Totodile as my sta𒁃rter. It was interesting to see Hippowdon battling on the delicate Kalosian rooftops. But there was one genre of Pokemon mysteriously absent from the trailer: new Megas.

I was fine with that initially. I was just glad that the trailer confirmed we (almost definitely) won’t be getting 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mega Incineroar. That thing would suck. But after having some time to breathe, I want to know what Mega Evolutions we🎃 will be gettin🧜g in the game.

Which Mega Evolutions Are Confirmed In Pokemon Legends: Z-A?

We know Megas are coming, but we don’t know which ones. Of the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:confirmed Pokemon in 𝓀Pokemon Legends: Z-A, there are a bunch that already have Mega Evolutions. A few were shown in the trailer, and a few others appear in their non-Mega forms, although that’s yet to be officially confirme♏d. That said, we can likely expect the following Megas in Pokemon Legends: Z-A:

  • Mega Charizard X
  • Mega Charizard Y
  • Mega Pidgeot
  • Mega Kangaskhan
  • Mega Pinsir
  • Mega Gyarados
  • Mega Aerodactyl
  • Mega Ampharos
  • Mega Steelix
  • Mega Heracross
  • Mega Houndoom
  • Mega Tyranitar
  • Mega Gardevoir
  • Mega Sableye
  • Mega Altaria
  • Mega Absol
  • Mega Salamence
  • Mega Lucario
  • Mega Gallade

Looking through the list, there aren’t many confirmed Pokemon that don’t have Mega Evolutions already. The exception to this are the Gen 6 monsters, any o꧙f which could receive a Mega Evolution.𓃲 Fans would be ravenous to see Mega Aegislash, Mega Talonflame, or Mega Florges, but I’m not sure they will receive the Mega treatment.

Promotional materials for the upcoming arc of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon Horizons also hint at some new Mega Evolutions, so there could be some important clues found in the a🧔nime when it debuts next month.

Pokemon is always playing fast and loose with its lore, but why would Gen 6 Pokemon have Mega Evolutions in the past, but 🐓not in the present day of Pokemon X & Y? Maybe the Mega Stones were lost to time or something, but it feels unlikely to me.

Doing Some Mega Detective Work

Putting my Looker cosplay ෴on, I decided to dive into the list of confirmed Pokemon and see if I could find any patterns. But first, some quick assumptions.

Zygarde could feasibly get a Mega Evolution. It’s the 🌜star of this game, so it makes sense. But is its 100 percent form already a form of evolution? It’s tricky to say.

I also believe that it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that the sta🌃rters get new Mega Evolওutions. Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s more likely they get Kalosian forms, but I could see Mega Feraligatr, Mega Emboar, and Mega Meganium gracing our Switches before the end of the year.

Honestly, I jus𓄧t want to see the design for Mega𒁏 Feraligatr.

Now those candidates are out 🗹of the way, I looked at the rest of the announced Pokemon for Legends: Z-A. Discounting monsters that already have Megas, that are mentioned above, and are originally from the Kalos region, I was left with a much shorter꧂ list:

  • Mega Arbok
  • Mega Raichu
  • Mega Victreebel
  • Mega Starmie
  • Mega Eeveelutions
  • Mega Dragonite
  • Mega Ariados
  • Mega Roserade
  • Mega Hippowdon
  • Mega Watchog
  • Mega Krookodile
  • Mega Garbodor
  • Mega Emolga
  • Mega Chandelure

We can safely discount Raichu and the Eeveelutions. I also don’t think that Game Frea𝓀k will want to intrꦛoduce an item called Dragoniteite, but most of the others are feasible recipients for a Mega Evolution.

Mega Lucario in Pokemon Legends Z-A

I’d discount the likes of Garbodor, Emolga, and Watchog because they just have ‘filler Pokemon’ vibes (sorry). From this list, I think Mega Chandelur🧔e is the most likely, as it fits with the French theme of the Kalos region. Legends: Z-A’s 🅠industrial revolution could see Mega Chandelure evolve from candle-power to something much more modern. Could we see it become an Electric-type, perhaps?

Otheജr than that, I’d love to see Mega Krookodile, especially if Feraligatr gets a regional form rather t🅷han a Mega. What can I say, crocodiles are cool.

Mega Ampharos in Pokemon Legends Z-A

Who knows if any Pokemon on this list will get Mega Evolutions. It’s incredibly likely that a bunch of as-yet revealed Pokemon will receive the Mega treatment. I think it’s also likely that we get new Pokemon revealed as their Mega Evolutions. What if the next trailer opens with Mega Nidoking and Mega Nidoqueen, confirming both that they’re in Legends: Z-A and that they’re getting Mega Evౠolutions befitting Kalosian royalty?

We don’t know a lot about Pokemo๊n Legends: Z-A at the moment. You know nothing more about the game than you did five minutes ago, before you read this article. But you might have a few ideas for Megas you want to see. After all, half the fun of a n൲ew Pokemon game is the speculation before it releases.
