All 48 Mega Pokemon Explained 

I'm surprised we don't have a grass type mawile by now

@@cammy649 Never thought of that, but yeah, it'd make a lot of sense.

​@@cammy649i know I am late but carnivine and victribell are grass type mawiles

This is from masters right

me and my cat want to take over the world why cant he mega evolve someone pls help

@@ChefCatClawhave you tried bonding with it or breaking its jaw?

i tried breaking someone elses jaw but im pretty sure my cat doesnt have a mouth@@santilata3306

​@@ChefCatClawyour cat doesnt want to take over the world. It wants food, cuddles and occasionally to annoy you.

i respect a pokemon who wants to do human things. even if its stupid

To be honest, Mewtwo is the type of Pokémon capable of taking those mega Pokémon without relying on it. But he's intelligent and curious too so ain't no way he will pass the chance to study them. If he can make his own building and Pokéballs, he can definitely do it.

This makes perfect sense, especially considering what Mewtwo does in the first movie (I do not know if that is cannon, though). He creates a giant laboratory, organises a huge tournament, and even creates powered up clone Pokémon. And he does it all alone, and I presume all on a rainy Saturday afternoon. It is also pretty nice that he ends up making 2 stones for himself, making his better than the natural phenomena that his idea originated from.

Considering the Pokemon Adventures manga, it's likely they are artificial. And that manga is stated to be closer to Satoshi Tajiri's intentions.

Tbf Pokémon evolution isn’t even based off evolution it’s a metamorphosis so trying to see the practical evolutionary benefits is pointless since they’re morphing for a temporary power gain not a new survival benefit

@@boshlovely2002 metamorphosis is just an evolution during lifespan. "temporary power gain not a new survival benefit" sir, species do morph for a new survival benefit.

​@idk4435 they morph by chance, the survival benefit isnt guaranteed, just passed on by having more surviving carriers. evolution is entirely random mutations passed down by gene carriers.

Go give this video a dislike he says charizard wrong

@@idk4435Yes, SPECIES morph for suvival benefits. As in, populations of individuals change over time. Thats what darwinian evolution predicts. Pokemon evolution has always been completely seperate from that, since they evolve as individuals (which biological evolution doesnt allow). And mega evolution is even less similar to that, since its a temporary change (again, completely unlike biological evolution). Also, the entire concept of cramming hundreds of thousands of years of evolution into one rapid change is flawed, since it lacks one of the biggest aspects of biological evolution: Changes in selection pressure. If the conditions a species is adapting too is remaining the same for a very long time, those changes slow down over time (since the organism is apparently already adapted to this environment a lot, which means the environment will not aggressively weed out a lot of individuals). If you have massive changes happen over just 5 seconds (pokemon evolution), there are not different selections pressures and environment to adapt too. Also also, if Pokemon species actually changed over time to conform to selection pressure, wouldnt basically all pokemon develop secondary types that are specifically there to combat its natural predetors? With pokemon types being a massive rock-paper-scissors game, its pretty clear what types would eliminate its current elemental weaknesses, massively favoring mutations that add these types to its own.

Its also super exited about it, thus bouncing all over the place!

Well ig you can't spell Dopamine without doping

literally according to the dex it's basically saying it's life ambition is the same as Bagon's: Flying

Damn my boy just wanna fly and live life , pretty wholesome

wait poor bagon he doesnt get wings until 2 evolutions

Megas didn't actually have Pokedex entries in XY and ORAS if I remember correctly.😊

Megas didn’t have dex entries in XY or ORAS, only SMUSUM and Let’s Go P/E. I didn’t look at every mega’s entry but of the about 20 or so I did, if there was anything negative mentioned (pain, increase temperament, etc) it was only in the SMUSUM entries and never in the Let’s Go ones. Funny how the games that introduced a new mechanic that replaced mega evolutions had negative things to say about it.

@@SoaringxDragon tbf, the alolan games just have wild pokedex entries in general

And here's the thing. In X and Y, they literally say that it is the bond between the trainer and their Pokémon that affects it

i never understood that especially for the ones that gain strength like blaziken and lucario maybe for like glalie cuz his jaw is forced open but the other two i mentioned basically become saiyan versions

that's why m-pinsir is my 10th favorite pokemon

Unfamiliar? It looks the same with a palette swap

Mega Charizard X is so “dark and depressive guys”, and Y is much better (excpt on Lets go, where solar power was killed)

Especially considering that the other Pokémon to get two forms was mewtwo. It is a really good theory, and maybe with that logic, charizard was never supposed to get one in the first place…

I saw a theory a few years back that the people of Alola, being so reliant on Z Moves and not having natural Mega Evolution used it wrong. This is what lead to the horrible dex entries

Agreed

Yes yes, let more pokemon suffer for our pleasure.

@@thecjgameworld4013my brother in Christ they’re pixels

@@timotum3712😂😂😂 so true

I mean honestly who at game freak said "yeah let's remove mega evolution and put goofy hats on the Pokemon instead"

they really just ignore anything that doesn't line up with the edgy interpretation

Go give this video a dislike he says charizard wrong

Makes sense especially since Salamance's paradox looks highly similar to his mega.

​@@Broshi9001 technically we still don't know whether the paradox mons are actual past and future forms or are just a creation from the imagination of those (the expedition group/ researchers) who ventured into Area Zero by the Third legendary, no fossils for Volcarona were ever discovered and Walking Wake is an enigma in and of itself and also the raikou paradox, so the jury is still out on this one

Though i do lean more towards the imagination theory because the paradox mon are basically the cliche of "oh its from the future so it must be more robotic and advanced or its from the past and most look more wild and primal than what it looks like now" also just no, they left way to many plot holes in the game, like if a character in a video game calls it out on its own bullshit, you know something is up like how arven calls out the whole time machine thing but somehow the paradox mon "existed" before the machine, i just think these mon already existed here being born from the desires and wishes of the researchers of what they could find there and these ending up being what the 3rd legendary cooked up

​@@Broshi9001 also how could the scientists have seen Walking Wake and Iron Leaves even though they didn't exist the moment we found the books, also how actual Walking Wake and Iron Leaves look nothing like how they were described and sketched in the book and how they all resemble creatures from either dubious or paranormal magazines, literally a figment of the imagination being turned into reality

cardio indeed

I really wish they would do more with this idea.

i think that’s why megas are still my favorite gimmick lol, it makes me feel like i’m playing an anime

Mmm, i do not think so. The "bad" Pokédex entries are all in the Alola games, where mega evolution it's a foreing concept, just imported by overseas trainers. In that case, they just could have a bad impresion of the phenomenon, and think that the Pokémon it's suffering, just as a foreing could think that Z-Moves drain energy of a Pokémon beyond it's limits.

Honestly, I hated the fact that I could only see that Rasen Shuriken one time. It was EPIC. I was blown away by the intensity of that single attack. And then… “Ahhhh…so yeah, this move is a no-no……..sorry.”

Using Mega Evolution, Battle Bond and Z Move will give Pokemon so much power.

Its just to make you hate megas saying it hurts the Pokémon but from what most consider true that it dose not hurt the Pokémon but rather is activated purely by friendship

@@bresrkthis exactly Megas we’re considered good increases in power based of a close bond with the trainer then when they wanted to get rid of it all of a sudden it became a bad power that harms the Pokemon I’m inclined to go with Kalos’s interpretation of megas since they actually have a monopoly on it while the people of Alola don’t even really know how it works

🤓-you

@@willsmith-iz3hh as Long as I am right I don’t give a fuck

I can see your point, but Pokemon has no reason to try and grab fans of other franchises when they are the most profitable franchise of all time. It'd be adding a drop of water into an ocean.

WE DON'T USE THE WORD ITS AS A PRONOUN IF THERE'S AN APOSTROPHE IN IT! STOP DOING THAT!

LOL​@@Amelia4111

.....So what about the fact that Mega Evolution is basically the user using stolen energy from dead Pokémon and (possibly) people? 'Cause thinking about it now, the ultimate weapon that was used also used the same energy that's used for Mega Evolution. Sycamore and Zinnia already hinted (In Zinnia's case she directly implied it) that Mega Evolution came into existence BECAUSE of AZ's weapon. And then there's the energy source being Pokémon that were hooked up and SACRIFICED to power it!

@@ceecee6521 Mega Evolutuon is the rest of the Infinity energy thats still lingering in the Stones (presumably comets) which came from the recoil of the shot. That would make alot of sense because its how physics work. You cant direct an insane amount of energy without some kind of energy or shockwave being emitted from around it. As I am really tired rn I forgot the word, but yes. AZs Weapon made Mega evolution presumably possible. I would even say it created the Natural energy as well, but thats a different topic.

So true...

Yeah even pokemon like druddigon or accelgor would've been a better pick if they were going with popular picks cause they desperately would've needed it if mawile, ampharos kangashagn and even beedrill got alot better with it.

To annoying plus competitive players would kill them lol. Same reason why z moves cam still be performed without friendship even though both mega evolution and z moves are rooted in friendship

Pokémon never made it really easy to raise your friendship level with a Pokemon. Plus, I have a feeling Mega Evolution would be absolutely hated if, in order to use it, you had to maximize the friendship of the Pokemon you were trying to Mega Evolve.

The great thing is, official confirmation will never come causer they literally just don't care. xD Gamefreak even said "I think none of that stuff is really set in stone" when asked lore questions about SwSh. So.

@@Bossfightmedia realy ? lol still self interpretation is a thing, so everyone is entitled to its own opinian

@@davidfilipe4460 yeah really. DYKG has Made a Video about "collesseum devs knew nothing about Pokémon" which Had a Part of an Interview which Said that. Also - Sure you are entitled to your own Opinion. Its Not Like I Said you are Not lol.

@@Bossfightmedia so they Just created a game that they dont even know nothing about (lore wise) ? Uau I allways thought that pokémon devs maded their games with open storytelling on porpose so we could create our own interpretations, now i think they Just dont Care, and put some random shit in the lore and the rest is up to us(i dont know maybe i got that wrong)

@@davidfilipe4460 No, thats actually exactly what Happens. They make Random Shit Up and leave the Interpretation Up to us because Its *way* easier than coming Up with it themselves lol.

Same question!
