IIRC the only Pokemon past Gen 4 that can mega evolve are Audino and Diancie. Well, there's Ultra Necrozma but that's not technically mega evolution.

Diancie can!

Yeah it was stupid as gently caress they didn't give it to any Gen VI mons. Especially the starters.

The main reason why Mega Evolutions were given to older Pokémon was to either revamp them due to power creep or because they were popular characters in the first place. It kind of also made good on the playground rumors that the Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise had stronger forms. If they gave them to newer monsters, then the megas would completely overshadow the original forms (and it kind of already happened to some like Lucario and Salamence).

Maybe in a future installment if they ever revisit Mega Evolution, then newer monsters from Gen 5, 6 and maybe even 7 may get one. Although Ash-Greninja kinda throws a spanner into that.

Ash-Greninja is a good Pokemon, entirely because it's part of some of the most hype fights in the XY anime.

Capital: A city designated as a legislative seat by the government or some other authority, often the city in which the government is located; otherwise the most important city within a country or a subdivision of it.




Minor nitpick, "Guard" should be "Shield" so that it would have both Sword and Shield in.

I’m almost to Solaceon Town in the DP anime, and it’s still solid. The Chimchar storyline was genuinely emotionally moving, and the tag battle competition had some good fights. The show is starting to rely a bit more on character of the day storylines, but they’re still better than the Johto CotD storylines; the focus is on the new Pokémon and the way Pokémon affect people’s jobs, rather than on random festivals/whiny kids/Team Rocket antics.

IIRC, Sinnoh does feature the longest filler gap between major events in the series, but I regard it as a major high point for the series regardless. And that Chimchar storyline ain't *remotely* finished yet.

Cosplay Pikachu can't be banked, but half of the Totem Pokemon can be for some reason. It'll be interesting to see how they handle the totems that can going forward.

Currently watching an episode about Luxray, and just realized that even thought Luxray's whole concept is that it has x-ray vision, there's no game-mechanical representation of this at all. Why didn't they give it Keen Eye?

SM will not stop killing pokemon.

Wait, maybe this is why Tapu Koko cares about Ash? The Totem Trevennant just told it that a kid in the future was gonna be super chill and njce to pokemon nd will have an Ultra ZRing, thus worthy of magic poo poo
