LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 It falls victim to other Prankster users' Taunt. What people should get in their minds is that Sableye is not meant in any way to be an offensive Pokémon; the fact that they gave it Prankster as a Hidden Ability should've tipped them off. Its movepool, type and stats, even with the Mega Evolution boosts, wouldn't be fit for combat purposes; and I don't think they will give it the same treatment as Mawile. At best, they'd give it an ability that'd increase its defenses, amplifying its capabilities as a supporter and annoyer. EDIT: They could also transfer some of its Speed to its defenses, if the Mega Evo boost by itself isn't enough. If it keeps Prankster, it won't matter much. It's already the slowest Prankster user by far, it's not like it could do anything against its colleagues' Taunts anyway; so it's best to focus on giving it more durability. My main point is we can't write off Sableye so early, which many people have. We can't say for sure what/how good it's stat boosts will be. As for it not getting the same treatment as Mawile. If I remember right it's the version counterpart to Mawile so I don't see why they wouldn't give it similarly great boosts. However I'm unsure if it will be physical or defensive, though I will admit it probably will be defensive. But it's up in the air so far, and it could possibly get an offensive boost. (Some Megas can make a Pokemon work differently, not necessarily make its current job work better.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His offense doesn't matter at all. He has Foul Play which lets him us the opponents attack stat. Night Shade also does a preset amount of damage, so in terms of damaing the opponent, Sableye getting an ATK buff would do actual nothing for him.

Fusion X. Denver Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Even if it isn't, I don't see why those Pokémon wouldn't get Megas. They're all highly likely candidates IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airride Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Something to note in that pic; In the bottom left, there's a picture of Latios Mega Evolving, with May 'n' all. While it may be a good photoshop, it is one of the...better indicators, methinks. ...The, the fact that they otherwise use stuff we've already seen, and Mega Diancie is in there might also be something to note...

Tentacruel Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 So from the sound of things, we're all on the same boat of recognizing the objective truth that Flygon is the Beedrill's knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night Shade also does a preset amount of damage, so in terms of damaing the opponent, Sableye getting an ATK buff would do actual nothing for him. actually a large number of sableye carry knock off which does benefit from an increase in attack, however it's more just to remove items than to do any actual damage It falls victim to other Prankster users' Taunt. there are literally 2 relevant prankster taunt mons, one of them has better moves to use and the other is pretty bad anyway. sableye is in no way taunt bait. also i'm really excited if some of those megas are true such as seviper and i think the mon behind the glare is a zangoose, as well as sharpedo and crawdaunt.

Elijah~ Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 that's a ludicolo? what made me think it was a crawdaunt? EVEN BETTER In my perspective, Mega Crawdaunt isn't worth it. Mega Kingler would be another interesting Mega Evolution ,yet I don't think it's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Warden Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 I don't know if it's been said yet, but I learned from Serebii that when Groudon enters its Primal state, it becomes Ground/Fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toffee. Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Groudon, honestly, should have been Ground/Fire from the start. Kyogre stays pure WATER though, right? (too lazy to check) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Kyogre stays pure WATER though, right?(too lazy to check) Yep, just Water. Always thought Kyogre was Water/Dragon, but I guess I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral_Stalfos19 Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Hopefully Mega Seviper gets the same treatment as Mega Sceptile did in terms of typing. We need a Poison/Dragon in the metagame that's better than Dragalge. I don't mind if it either keeps Shed Skin or gets Intimidate or Moxie or something instead, but hopefully it'll be faster and/or bulkier. Oh, and Mega Camerupt better be good too. That's the only way I'll forgive Nintendo for taking a Pokemon with one of my most favorite typings and stuffing it up. ... I won't comment on the rest until we've confirmed whether or not this Mega leak is fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 I would have liked Water/Electric for Primal Kyogre. btw, remember this dude? Started thinking of it when I looked at some of Primal Groundon's images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elijah~ Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 I actually have a DVD copy of that movie. Jirachi the Wish Maker was the name of it, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 I remember Fake Groudon from movie 6. Jirachi Wish Maker (EN) or Wishing Star of the Seven Nights - Jirachi (JP); you got it right, Kirito. As for the new Mega Evos, Metagross looks nice [too bad Steel doesn't cover its Dark/Ghost weaknesses anymore, but it's still good]. Mega Latis, I'm looking forward to (though given the hacked data on them from Serebii, I really hope they get a speed buff in addition to their special attack. Physical attack shouldn't get raised since they're mostly Special attackers (and usually run an - Atk nature). Mega Flygon, think a lot of us wanted to see one (especially in DL's Pokemon matches) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Yay, if that's true, Mega Flygon, Zangoose, and Sally would be boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 I'm really hopeful that those Mega Evos will exist because it actually somewhat makes sense with X/Y. Zangoose and Seviper hordes existed. Bagon, Trapinch, and Gible were all available in the wild, and Garchomp got a Mega for some reason, but left the other dragons out of the fun. Even if the stones are only available in OR/AS, the Pokemon pertaining to them are naturally available in X/Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 The question comes to their use in communicating with XY.Are they already in the game like Mega Latios and Latias? Do they intend to patch them into XY if they're not? What about those with XY who don't connect their 3DS to the internet? Being portable, you actually have to think about that local connection between games that consoles don't because they generally only connect with each other online.
