That’s not all: as suspected, Groudon and Kyogre will have new forms in the new Pokémon remakes, Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire.
The information comes from CoroCoro magazine scans posted by Pokemon website Serebii. According to Serebii, Mega Sceptile (aka Treecko’s mega) is a Grass/Dragon type Pokemon and will have the “Lightning Rod” ability. Mega Swampert (aka Mudkip’s mega) will retain his typing, but will have the “Swift Swim” ability.
Groudon and Kyogre’s mega evolutions, meanwhile, are a little trickier. Technically, their new forms are called “Ancient Devolution,” though that name might be different in the English release of the game — remember, this is all translated from Japanese. The new forms for these legendary Pokemon will have some sort of prehistoric tie, which explains why the box art made both Pokemon look slightly different from their normal forms. Looks like the conspiracy theories were right!
Additionally, some of the story for the remakes will revolve around a character trying to dig into Mega Evolutions, but details are scarce right now. Team Aqua and Team Magma both make a return as well, though that’s not exactly surprising.
You can see the scans over at Serebii, or visit CoroCoro here. Both Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire drop in November 2014.

All my Mudkipz are belong to you…
Also this is great news 🙂
1st off epic to see that we at last have a grass/dragon in the form of mega sceptile & second it is revenge of the noobish looking starter with mega swampert that is now a fast bullbozer going at you at speed with help of swift swim, fwi new team aqua looks like real pirates
Can we get a mega wobbuffet? Mine could use an upgrade. That said it is mostly in my team for shock value (read. named Rhianna).
That’s horrible.
I know you laughed a little, if only on the inside; its ok most people do.
Not even a little.
horribly funny
I don’t understand the Rihanna reference, but just so you know, you’ve spelled her name wrong.
It was a joke about domestic violence. It is because Wobbuffet doesn’t have any offensive abilities, it just sittings there and takes a beating.
