Oh gawd, I hope those mega evolutions of Gardevoir and Gyarados aren't real, or at least that there is an alternate X/Y version too. Because damn, they're ugly. I'd rather have my Gyara and Gardevoir stay in their normal forms than have them lose all of their style in exchange for some increased stats.

No, seriously, how could they make the mega evolutions of two of my favourite pokemons look so bad? =(


On the other hand, I'm very happy with how Mawile's turning out. I really like Mawile's design, but its stats are just too terrible for it to find a home in any of my teams. Now, with the addition of the Fairy type, it gets a pretty good typing combo with two immunities and only two weaknesses. And the mega evolution actually looks great and has one of the most powerful abilities ever that more than makes up for the normally average at best attack stat. Just use it in a trick room team, and it's going to kick major ass with 170+ base power and good typing coverage. Especially if you can manage to get a Sword Dance in.

I also kinda like Honedge. Compared to ice cream and keychains and whatnot, a living sword is pretty cool you know. Plus steel + ghost is another badass typing.

Tyrantrum is pretty awesome too. A T-Rex with beard = auto-win.
