Well damn, you just knew this was coming.

Mega Charizard X or the leaker getting shut down by Nintendo, you ask? Well... both.

Considering that they said in an interview that popularity was one of the factors deciding who was going to megavolve, it's not that much of a surprise to see that both Charizard and Mewtwo would get two, since when it comes to final forms you don't get any more popular than that. And as for the typing... well, ABOUT FUCKING TIME. We were all perplexed when we saw Mega Charizard Y's typing remained unchanged, and now we have the explanation. I'm looking forward to seeing how this one will work, with improved attack and an ability that powers up contact moves (most notably Outrage and Flare Blitz). Heck, like its Y counterpart it actually looks rather neat. I think at this point that if it's not OU, between this and Drought, it'll be a big surprise.

And of course we knew it was only a matter of time before yesterday's leaker got a phone call from men with sunglasses and black suits. Still, we got some valuable info out of that, especially the fact that you need to hold out for team members more than ever before. So I suppose it's back to business as usual for a week or so?

    1. Still has to switch in Stealth Rocks as a regular Charizard though.

    2. Yeah, but the need to spin every single time you want to send it in after the first one is greatly lessened. Of course, it's much less reliant on switching in and out constantly as Mega Charizard Y, but every bit helps.

    1. Looks awfully suspicious. I'll keep an eye on it, but it's still possibly fake. At least the other guy's screenshot quality (and quantity for that matter) left no room for doubt.
