Oh man, remember October 16th? Not just any October 16th, but this year’s October 16th! Pokémon fans are bouncing off the walls because they’re heading back to the Kalos region in Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Yeah, Kalos—where you could wander around Lumiose City like a curious tourist with those three iconic starters: Chikorita, Totodile, and Tepig. Wait, was it Tepig or Turtwig? Ugh, I always mix them up. Never mind, moving on.
Anyway—no, wait, let’s backtrack a bit. So yeah, Pokémon Legends: Z-A! It’s like taking a blast-to-the-past trip with a twist. They’re dropping in some Pokémon that showed up after the X and Y era. Plus, there’s this buzz about Mega Evolutions making a grand return. Picture it: 27 all-new Mega Evolved forms, but, here’s the kicker—Bug and Electric types might not be feeling the love. Kind of a bummer if you ask me.
Right, so where was I? Oh yeah, the Mega Evolutions. Freakin’ Game Freak really knows how to keep folks guessing. Mega Charizard X and Y are coming back. Heck, even Mega Sableye. But whether all 48 Mega forms are making a return? Who knows. It’s like waiting for a bus that may or may not come.
Then there’s this list that’s been floating around—Mega Clefable, Mega Starmie, everyone’s talking like it’s some secret menu at a café. But what about Mega Dragonite? That’s the one I’m betting on. And maybe Mega Greninja. It’s all so tantalizingly vague, like knowing there’s a surprise party but not the location.
Now, forget all sense of order because I’m veering off into typings. If these forms happen, they’re gonna shake things up, but retain their core typings—much like the Water/Flying Gyarados who magically becomes a Water/Dark mega.
Oh, did I mention Bug and Electric types earlier? Yeah, I did. Think Mega Scolipede, which could become this creepy-crawly Bug/Dark beast, snapping and clawing like it’s got something to prove. Meanwhile, Mega Eelektross might turn into this electric eel of doom. Electric/Dark, Electric/Water—take your pick. It’ll zap you before you remove the plug. That’s how wild things could get.
And here we are, onto some nostalgic detailing—a game filled with favorites, flavor-packed with surprises. What’s next for Pokémon? Heck, I’m not even sure. Maybe a fusion dance with Digimon? Okay, that’s just me dreaming while staring at spinning Pokéballs.
