Title: Mega Salamence, Mega Altaria, and Mega... Lopunny?! CONFIRMED!
Post by: Richard and Blaziken on August 08, 2014, 07:41
Corocoro leaks have confirmed that Mega Salamence, Mega Altaria, and Mega Lopunny have been confirmed for OR/AS!

Mega Salamence gains Aerilate. I can tell you right now, without a sliver of doubt in my mind, that Mega Salamence will be horribly broken and quickbanned upon release.

Mega Altaria gains Dragon/Fairy typing, and Pixelate! This could be interesting, and also Game Freak apparently doesn't like defensive strategies at all, so let's all play hyper offense.

Mega Lopunny gains Normal/Fighting typing, with Scrappy ability, allowing both STABs to hit Ghost types. This is certainly interesting, and is the first non-Hoenn Mega Pokemon to get a Mega Evolution, besides Diancie, who is an event legend.

Edit: In addition, the special Pikachu that can be dressed up gets a special move with each costume. Pikachu Rock Star gets Meteor Mash, Pikachu PhD gets Electric Terrain, Pikachu Pop Star gets Draining Kiss, Pikachu Belle gets Icicle Crash, and Pikachu Libre gets Flying Press.

Edit 2 apparently you receive a shiny Beldum in-game with Metagrossite.

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES!!!!!!!!

All my dragons will be OP <3

Altaria looks so cute and it might actually be usable now, it kinda looks like it fell into a bath full of bubbles?

Salamence looks like the Nekron Doom Scythe (http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Fo7IwLUmQwo/T9CsSUAEHTI/AAAAAAAABLc/xhXNa5hPrhU/s1600/becron+Flyer+2.JPG) and is pretty cool (and I called it's ability ;) )

Mega Lopunny is disgusting but I don't even care because Altaria and Salamence.

Have you noticed how they love taking away the flying type from Pokémon that are supposed to be able to fly.. a grounded Altaria seems a bit strange.

Salamence is too busy hogging all the Flying.

AAAAAAHHH!!

I hoped beyond hope, when we saw how the first lot of Megas just got more fluffy, that Mega Altaria would happen and reach new levels of fluff.. and it happened, I can't believe it happened! So happy <3

I also really like the other two but Altaria wins everything today.

...Lopbunny? Ok. Normal/fighting with scrappy is unresisted STAB coverage though, so that's very good for it. Altaria is glorious, lack of flygon makes me sad.

Finally Lopunny gets all the love it deserves. I always enjoyed it tricking stuff with it, and Scrappy with that STAB is just excellent.

So in love with Altaria! Everything is on point with the design and the typing <333
I also like Salamence and Lopunny, fans of those pokemon so totally happy with this!

So after bothering me for a while, I figured out what Mence's design reminds me of.

Salamence is part of the Rebel Allience, and a traitor, take him away. (to Ubers because it's getting banned)

That settles it them, X Wings will be replaced by Mega Salamences for Episode 7. XD And probably 4-6 too if Lucas gets anywhere near an editing room again...

Mega Lopunny was a surprise and interesting it's now part fighting (Though probably got a Mega since it also gets so much "fanart" like another certain human shaped female Pokemon that got a Mega in XY....). Kinda hoping they save the 4th Gen for eventual 4th Gen remakes though as well, butr good to see at least new Megas won't just be limited to Hoenn Pokemon, or certain event ones...

Mega Salamence looks like it's going to be unbelievably fast.

love the salamence design, i like geometric things. 
didn't think altaria could get any more fluffy wow, that'll show me. yay for new typings!
also i like the lopunny design, go figure. it's ridiculous with its ugg boots and its torn leggings. 
(but actually useful???wow)

Altaria is so fluffy, I could just die right now. Salamence is going to be banned so fast, Blaziken would be proud. Lastly, Lopunny will be another poemon that Scout uses.

I have 2 problems with all this.

1. Mega Salamence will be banned, which is fine, but Latios will still be OU. WTH?
2. Why is there no Mega Flygon?  :(

Post by: Spriter on August 08, 2014, 17:40
Mega Salamence can tear OU to absolute pieces with Aerilate. Latios can not tear OU to pieces anywhere near as bad as Mega Mence will.

How do you feel about banning Aegislash and suspecting Mega Mawile now, smogon? ;)

Altaria is finally getting the love it wanted :D

Mega Lopunny is interesting, but Scrappy and that STAB is pretty cool, especially with an unresisted HJK and Return. It'll probably jump up to UU/BL2 I think.

Take the 'H' off of that HJK, Lopunny only learns Jump Kick, unfortunately. LO Lopunny w/ STAB can't even OHKO standard Heatran (I've taken to using LO to use as the megas attack boost rather than guessing stats, as it tends to be roughly similar) with Jump Kick =/

Salamence is absolutely going to be Uber though. It doesn't even need the stat boost to be broken, tbh, but given it's going to get 160 attack at the least (unless GF go completely weird and make it defensive???) I wouldn't be surprised to see it end up like Gengarite, being suspected in Übers.

Altaria is still absolutely my favourite though, it's never going to leave my team ever except to use MegaMence to obliterate Richard in 'friendly' matches kill the battle maison

"Mega Lopunny who is Normal/Fighting with Scrappy. It now knows the move High Jump Kick."

Nope, I am correct.

Oh wow, sorry, got corrected earlier myself when I said HJK in a calc, just assumed that guy was right xD

Post by: Spriter on August 08, 2014, 19:39
HJK and Adamant is enough to kill Heatran, assuming it's attack is boosted akin to a Life Orb boost. Jolly does, but 69% of the time approximately. Maybe we'll let Mega Lopunny slide now xD

Having Work Up and Power-up Punch is sweet enough for boosting, I suppose. Not as good as Mega Mence obviously, oh goodness.

Thought: can Klutz Lopunny Mega-Evolve..?

EDIT: Nevermind, a little research says that Klutz doesn't affect Mega Stones. Makes sense.

Yep, bulbapedia's page says "Klutz does not prevent the user from Mega Evolving via Mega Stone."

I assume it's been hacked on and tried or something, because is don't know how they can know? But yeah, it can.

Skill Swap, I'd imagine! Swapping Klutz onto something holding a Mega Stone and seeing if it can still use it.

I wonder if they will start making Mega Altaria designed beds... I think I'd buy just for the comfort

^I would do exactly that.

If they sold oversized Mega Altaria pokedolls, i'd save for that. It's so fluffy looking.

If a Dragon/Fairy Mega Altaria doesn't happen I'll eat my proverbial hat.

Yaaaaaaaaas called it!! I am so excited for this thing I can't wait to use it!

When I first saw a clearer pic of Mega Salamence, I thought of the Lati@s immediately. I looks so similar to their body shape. The wings also reminded me of a red crescent moon.

^I keep thinking of Cresslia actually whenever I see Mega Salamence. Its wing reminds me so much of the Legendary Pokemon's tail....
