Following yesterdays reveal of the new Pokémon, and the Mega Evolutions, some clear images have surfaced which showcase some of these Pokémon in battle. It also provides a few further bits of information. First, Pokémon can only Mega Evolve when they are holding a Mega Stone. It's not yet known whether the Mega Stone is one specific item, or a separate one such as the Blazikenite that the event Torchic holds. The Blazikenite is not found within normal gameplay. It also confirms that Mega Evolutions are temporary in battle.
It confirms that not all Pokémon will have Mega Evolutions. The Master Tower has a connection to Mega Evolutions.
It also confirms stat increases, stating that MegaLucario's Attack is higher. MegaAbsol has increased Attack & Speed.
Finally, it also confirms that Super Training will increase Pokémon's "Kiso" Points. The translation of it indicates that this may be what we call EVs.
05:33: Next month's CoroCoro to feature new Pokémon, new Mega Evolutions and type chart featuring the Fairy-type.
Is CoroCoro our only source for new pokemon news? A rumor from a reliable source claims there is a "Sushi" pokemon and a "Bag of Chips" pokemon. And There will be a dragon or poison eeveeloution
Temporary in battle though ? What kind of mess. Hopefully this isn't like "your Pokemon is in its mega-form for a certain amount of turns" type thing because it'd just be pointless and do nothing.
Then that just makes Mawhile and Absol as useless as they were before.
