Hidden OU (Final reveal pg. 17)

I know the feeling. Aura sphere become ridiculous ( 80 * 1.5 * 1.5 = 180 ), and dark pulse becomes pseudo-stab ( 80 * 1.5 = 120 ). Not to mention it gets nasty plot and agility for setting up.

Lucario gets Mega Launcher. Everything else gets fucked.
Well, it can't be the end of the world yet. I do believe we have other pokes left to see get revamped ( which I'm sure anothe rpoke gets a OP ability coming up.... ).

I was quite skeptical of this at first so I did some research on my own and believe it or not, I was able to confirm a lot of the leaks that Eevee posted on here. It took me a while of trawling through the japanese interwebs and copious amounts of Google translate, but here are some confirmations of some of the leaks that Eevee posted, along with a few new ones that I found:



 
Very interesting indeed. Hopefully your secret messenger will send you a stone tablet decoding this ancient language, so it will be easier to see what abilities these Pokemon have. I do realize I've mistranslated Cresselia's ability. It's actually Natural Cure, now that I look at it.
lol, I dunno how you mistranslated that. I don't know that language at all and I literally looked at it and said "that says Natural Cure".

Yes, I know Mega Luke was busted with Adaptability. But I'm sure there's a good Ability TEG Game Freak could give it without it being busted. Guts is terrible for a Mega. Even something silly like Analytic would work better for Mega Luke, allowing it to nail the switch-in extra hard when it forces something out. Well, at the very least you're now an idiot if you status Mega Lucario, so I suppose it's not all bad. Still seems like it might end up underpowered for a Mega.

Marvel Scale for Mega Latias? That's sad. Darn shame it's not Multiscale, especially considering the OPness of Adaptability Mega Latios. Shield Dust might be appreciated by Mega Latias as well, or possibly Wonder Skin.

For future reference, if Mega Heracross loses Skill Link then somebody is an idiot. Mega Heracross was designed around Skill Link. The only potentially reasonable substitution is Technician, but even that doesn't make as much sense.
 
This reminds me a lot of significantly more overpowered OU Theorymon.

I'm excited for Normalize Regigigas, though. Just gotta run Mega Launcher Lucario with Dark Pulse to take out Ghost, Rock and Steel types.
 

Wildcat Formation

flexibly adaptable to the situation
is a Tiering Contributor
Mega Alakazam with Pure Power sounds amazing. Base 50 Attack with Pure Power is exactly like Azumarill, and it still has that 175 special attack and 150 base speed. It learns physical moves like the elemental punches, drain punch, and knock off to eliminate those special walls. It becomes the ultimate all-out attacker.
 
Sand rush Rampardos sounds cool
but moltes just replaces charizard now and has a 50% accurate hurricane in sun

Not gonna believe just yet

mega Politoed with drizzle water flying typing with Hurricane when

guts is a great ability for mega Lucario it would bring him down to OU and its would be a faster conkledurr less bulk

This guy is right, actually. Any ability that can bring Mega Luke down to OU and still make him viable is welcome. Guts is not that bad, it gives him immunity to burn's attack drop and gives him a bigger boost that Adaptability would give when statused (since Adaptability is only for STAB moves).

Or Magic Guard. I think Latias would appreciate Magic Guard. If Game Freak wants to go the OP route, they can even give her Magic Bounce. I'd love my Sparrowmon to have that upon Mega Evolving. It'd be like having a built in Psycho Shift.

I'm at work but I just couldn't wait to share this update until I got home. After tracking down the parade of elephants (and wrestling a few to the ground that wouldn't hold still) I discovered a whole new list of changes. Game Freak continues to surprise and disgust at every turn.

I also have the confirmations from pages 5-6. The Reptile 's translations were correct but I'll post it anyway.

I'm going to work on getting the new abilities that we have so far coded in Joim's Lab. I'll call it 'Alternate OU' because this literally looks like an alternate universe.

Another example of TrollFreak. Giving Regigigas an HA, but not Slaking. #freeSlaking
Slaking has Stall as its Hidden Ability
 
This so good and so bad at the same time. If they do change, that means Pokemon that we all know and love (Multiscale Dragonite, Protean Greninja, Gale Wings Talonflame) are all down the drain. Whats good is that sucky ass Pokemon get new chances, and it will be shooken up. However some of these abilities do not need to be changed. MEGA FREAKING ADAPTABILITY LATIOS. Protean Mew, Parental Bond Nidoqueen/King, ADAPTABILITY MILOTIC.

EDIT: Ohwait.
 
there is absolutely no way this is for real, so many of these are just far too outlandish.


EDIT: those abilities for mega Lati@s were originally rumored to be what they'd be getting before they were released
