Mega Charizard X Revealed In Pokemon X

Last month it was revealed that fan favorite, Charizard, can achieve Mega Evolution, an extremely powerful form that only certain Pokémon can access during battles in the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y video games, which launch worldwide October 12 for the Nintendo 3DS. It is now known that Charizard can Mega Evolve into either Mega Charizard X or Mega Charizard Y, depending on which Mega Stone Charizard holds—Charizardite X or Charizardite Y. When Charizard Mega Evolves into Mega Charizard X, its body turns black and its flames burn blue with increased heat. It also changes types when it Mega Evolves, changing from Fire- and Flying-type to Fire- and Dragon-type!

The previously announced Mega Charizard is in fact Mega Charizard Y. Players will need to obtain Charizardite Y in Pokémon Y in order to Mega Evolve Charizard into Mega Charizard Y. Mega Charizard Y’s Sp. Attack increases significantly, and its Ability changes to Drought, increasing the power of Fire-type moves. Mega Charizard Y can learn the Fire-type move Blast Burn which becomes even more powerful with the effect of the Drought Ability.

Mega Charizard X is being introduced for the first time today. Players can obtain Charizardite X in Pokémon X and Mega Evolve Charizard into Mega Charizard X. Mega Charizard X’s Attack increases significantly and its Ability also changes to Tough Claws, which raises the power of moves that make direct contact. This Ability comes in handy when Mega Charizard X learns the Dragon-type move Dragon Tail which can force an opposing Pokémon to switch out during battle while also dealing damage.

    1. I don’t get that statement. I mean they are both nintendo IP’s and Pokemon was built on an age old hobby of collecting. Both are also good games so why would you even think to say something like that. That’s like saying My coin collection is mopping the floor with my love of fine wine after a steak dinner.

  1. I wonder if they’ll make Charizard come back in the anime, and evolve into Mega Charizard? Or ANY of the Pokémon for that matter?

  2. They are going all the way to please the fans this time.I’m assuming a second version for the 2 other starters is coming soon.Or maybe there is a second version for every single Pokemon*mind blowing*!

  3. Nintendo is my Blood

    this looks so badass but what happens when you Mega Evolve a shiny Pokémon? Hmmmm something to ponder perhaps?

  4. And here, kids, is why you should have preordered X version instead of Y.
    Plus, your legendary pokémon looks like a spectrobes or some random shit when X’s looks great.

      1. I think X’s pokémon is just… more “pokémonish”, colorful and well designed. Its story may be more beautiful and… “poetic”.
        But that’s just me :p

        1. Xerneas is a pure Fairy Type legendary, and there aren’t any. The other one is Dark/Flying Type which is dull, Murkrow.

    1. What exclusive? Probably their is goin to be a third Mega evolution if you make a charizard egg using one from each version.

  5. I had already pre order X back in june. I suck at guessing pretty much everything but when its about games my guess’s are always right.

  6. Instead of giving the same fucking pokemon 30 different evolutions they should just give each one an evolution and be done with it.

  7. Just wait… Pokémon Y(male) is going to get something way more bad ass…. Mega Ekans is like 8 feet long and super thick. When he mega evolves he has just one eye but gains a pair of trousers :)

    1. Chatot Mega evolves to…Justin Beiber! The new mega evolution can now use grave sing which hurts the opponent. Ability: Screeching- Increases damage caused by sound based moves.

  8. X appearing to be getting some cool exclusives, but I’m still getting Y. Yveltal looks too cool to pass up.

    Or heck, I might get both eventually.

  9. SherlockWillFightBilbo

    I prefer Charizard Y’s look, but I like Charizard X’s typing. X now has a Mewtwo and a Charizard with new types, while Y gets their regular typing :(

    1. But Y’s mega Charizard gets the Drought ability. If you’re familiar with competitive battling, you’d know that that’s OP as hell.

      I wonder if shiny X mega Charizard is orange.

  10. Another mega evolution was revealed. It was Dugtrio and when it mega evolves, two more join the group and name themselves as One Direction. They also become Ground-Fairy type.

      1. He got a bad memory, if something changes, then he might lose the memory :O
        Please donate for this severe case of amnesia
