POKEMON GEN 6 ANNOUNCED

[Baegal]

To be honest, I'm really surprised they showcased a STARTER pokemon for mega-evolutions--I almost feel like they need to give megas to all or none of them (which could be pretty cool, and they might be doing anyway).

Judging from how similar they look to their counterparts (especially ampharos), I have a feeling this is more of a superpowered alternate form-type gimmick rather than actual evolutions (I'd prefer evolutions and not touching three pokemon lines, but so far I'm impressed--the only ones I'm iffy about are Lucario and Absol, but they're tolerable to me), which, to be honest, makes me very excited.

Have I mentioned how PERFECT the Mawile evo/form is?
I've always loved Mawile, and it's had such great potential that seemed to go to waste until now.
Even if this isn't really an evolution but an alternate form type thing (which to be honest would actually be an awesome 'regular' evolution), I love the design, love the fairy type addition, and would LOVE to have it on my team now that it's stats are most likely beyond mediocre.

Ampharos looks pretty cool, even if it is just a wooly ampharos (which I always thought it was missing! It needed the fluff~)

If, however these ARE actually a legit form of evolution, I have a feeling there would be no more than 15, MAYBE 20, because it would certainly clutter up the pokedex and take up space for what could be new pokemon.
Again, I'm surprised they picked a starter, but hey.

If these are alternate forms, I would love to see Mega-evolutions of Gengar, Lapras, Breloom, Milotic, Banette, Audino, and Sigilyph!


Also, I would be perfectly okay if the rabbit was the 'small rodent' (ratatta, zigzagoon, bidoof, patrat, etc.) of the gen. It's very cute! For some reason the brown reminds me of mud or dirt--I have a feeling that might play into it's evolution?

And of course sexy fairy electric mouse is incredibly sexy
SO sexy
