So there are more Megas out now.

Mega Gallade, Mega Sharpedo, and Mega Camerupt.

 

I suppose I should have expected Mega Gallade with Mega Gardevoir out there. But Mega Sharpedo, what did they do to your nose? ;_;

 

Sharpedo and Gallade have always looked fairly ridiculous to me, I'm not sure if this is an improvement or not.

Well, I don't want to make the obvious joke, but I can't help myself. Sharpedo now has a huge nose and is covered in gaudy gold. *sigh*

Gallade has latios arms, not to mention a larger Fin and his still stupid skirt, though he gets points for the cape.

Camerupt has more hair with which to burn?

 

Mega-Sharpedo looks cool as shit.

 

Apparently you can create your own gym. Sort of.

 

I may have to pick this up. I've been waiting for that to happen since I saw the machop stomping down ground in Vermilion city in Gen 1.

 

Sapphire was pretty much the only Pokemon game I was invested in (maybe because the next one I played was Diamond and it kind of left me feeling very blah about Pokemon afterwards), so this is definitely something I'll try.

 

It's finally here.

MEGA RAYQUAZA ARRIVES!

What a badass.

 

Da da da daaaaaaaa!

New Megas!

Introducing, Mega Beedrill, the worst nightmare to an average person, Mega Beedrill gains adaptability as an ability, and has a huge boost in attack and speed!

Next to it, is the great Mega Pidgeot, the original first route bird Pokemon, who can’t miss with its deadly blows with No Guard! Mega Pidgeot has boosted special attack, to fill all your Hurricane-spamming dreams!

Also, you can ride Latios and Latias with a special item, allowing you to fly around the world map to special places to catch non-event Legendaries.

 

Basically no aesthetic change between Pidgeot and mega. Disappointing. :/

 

More Megas!

Mega Steelix, ready to destroy everything with its iron snake powers! Mega Steelix gets Sand Force as an ability.

Mega Glalie, who, after being neglected as Froslass's unpopular cousin, ran off to the mountains, grew a beard, and broke his own jaw. He gained the ability Refrigerate, and needs to go to the hospital right away.

Information is sparse, but Mega Glalie definitely keeps its original type. Not sure about Mega Steelix.

 

I'm disliking Mega Evolution more and more every time they come out with another batch of them. Seriously, enough already. Does every single Pokemon in the game have to have one?

 

/me looks at his avatar.

This is relevant to my interests.

 

More stuff!

Presenting, Mega Hoopa, who, um, I'm not sure what it wants, but you should probably does what it says unless you want awful things done to you. It gets Magician as an ability.

So I've been playing the demo all morning and if you don't have it yet you should work on getting it since you get to keep the Glalie and Glalitite you get in the demo for your ORAS when its released.

 

Uh, wat. What demo? Where?

 

Link is here.

If it asks for your region and redirects you to the main page just click the link again.

 

I've been signed up, but never got my newsletter.

 

It's utterly fucking retarded that getting a demo is this fucking hard. Every goddamn person that wants a demo should get a fucking demo.

 

They're apparently releasing the codes for the demo in waves. Mine was sent last night.
