Other Features Mega Scary: Mega Pokemon That Could Have Been (or Might Be)

[Deck Knight]

The basic thrust of this article will be going over

1. How much I underpredicted the scope of Mega Evolution.
2. Using that new knowledge to make a few guesses and predictions.

Doing it for next issue cause speculation is always fun, and we won't get a new game for several months anyway.

A few ideas:

Mega Quagsire - Unaware with buffed defenses/attack. Have stats will Recover.
Mega Magcargo - Sheer Force + Decent speed with Shell Smash could actually make Magcargo a rags to riches story like Mawile!
Mega Yanmega - Bug/Dragon w/ Tinted Lens
Mega Milotic - Water/Dragon w/ Multiscale
Mega Serperior - Contrary allows you to start with Coil, then Mega Evolve before you start using Leaf Storms.
Mega Stoutland - Sand Rush - Come in with Intimidate, then Mega-Evolve on a Sand team and become a major offensive threat.
Mega Haxorus - Mold Breaker - We all know bumping up Haxorus to like 117 Spe with a little more physical bulk would scare the bejeezus out of OU. Let's be real here.

And of course, Gen 6 Pokemon that might be cool/awesome to Mega-Evolve. Idea List:
Aurorus - Weather Resummon Re-summon.
Greninja - Faster Better Stronger More Protei(a)n
Diggersby - More Huge Power Stuff
Goodra - Ability Switch to Gooey after Sap Sipper or Hydration on Switch-in.
Hawlucha - Faster Better More
Talonflame - Muh Prioritah
Trevenant - More stats and Cursed Body would make this quite effective.
Tyrantrum - OM NOM NOM Metagame. Imagine if you will a Rock Head Head Smash followed by a Mega-Evolve to a Huge Jaws Fang move. Ouch.

Might hold writing it to let people weigh in with their opinions, most of these appear to be more wishful thinking and less predicting. But it's a topic I'm willing to back up.
