Hình Ảnh Pokemon Tiến Hóa Mega Của Pokemon ( Gen 1 Và Kanto )

Mega evolutions are a way to lớn pimp your prize Pokémon và make fearsome fighters even stronger.

Mega evolutions were first introduced in Pokémon X & Pokémon Y on Nintendo 3DS, & have been a part of Pokémon GO since August 2020.

For some collectors, mega evolutions are frustrating as you can’t keep the super-powered Pokémon you’ve worked so hard to lớn get.

But the rewards for having a mega evolved Pokémon guesting in your battle tiệc ngọt are worth the grind, even if your new friend slopes off after a few hours.

How Mega Evolutions Work

When you mega evolve a Pokémon, it becomes temporarily more powerful and gets a range of bonuses.

You can see which Pokémon can mega evolve by selecting them in your Pokémon storage.

If you see a ‘Mega evolve’ button và ‘Mega energy’ beside its candy indicator, you can mega evolve that Pokémon.

All Pokémon that can mega evolve are the final size of a Pokémon species. So while you can mega evolve Blastoise or Charizard, you can’t vì the same for Wartortle or Charmeleon.

For hardcore collectors, the main reason lớn get mega evolved Pokémon is that they appear permanently in your Mega Pokédex.

But, on the downside, your mega evolved Pokémon will only stay in its brawny new form for 8 hours. After that, it devolves into its original form.

To see how much time your mega evolution has left, look for the timer counting down on the right-hand side of the bản đồ screen.

The Rules Of Mega Evolution

When mega evolving Pokémon, remember that:

How khổng lồ Get and Use Mega Energy

To mega evolve a Pokémon, you first need to collect mega energy.

Like Candy, each Pokémon that can mega evolve has its own mega energy.

If you want a Mega Charizard, you’ll need to lớn scrape together enough Charizard mega energy. But you can’t use another Pokémon’s mega energy khổng lồ get Mega Charizard.

To get mega energy, you can:

You need a lot of mega energy khổng lồ get a mega Pokémon, & it will take a long time before you have enough.

To make things trickier, mega evolved Pokémon are not always available in raids – which is a pain as battling them is the quickest way lớn get mega energy.

When a mega Pokémon disappears from raids, it may be a long time before it comes back.

So when a mega evolution is starring in raids, make sure to lớn stock up on mega energy before it leaves.

You can only carry a maximum of 2,000 mega energy per Pokémon species. But as mega energy is hard to lớn get, this is unlikely khổng lồ ever be a problem.

Mega Evolve A Pokémon Once, It"s free The Next Time

After the first mega evolution, you are no longer required to lớn cough up the Mega energy required lớn complete the process again (subject khổng lồ that Pokémon"s cool-down period).

This means that while it can feel like quite the challenge to get together all of the Mega Energy to reach your Pokémon"s heightened state, you can now collect in peace knowing that you will not be required to lớn carry out the same process again afterwards.

After your 8-hour Mega glow-up, the pumped Pokémon will have a cool-down period before you can Mega evolve them again - preventing trainers from using the upgrade multiple times in battle. Check out our info on Mega Levels below to find out differences in this rest period.

However, if you are lucky enough to be sitting on the relevant Mega Energy, you can use this to lớn cut the cool-down period & get straight back into a Mega Evolution. The shorter the time remaining on your rest period, the less Energy you will have khổng lồ use, making this option perfect if you need a nguồn boost in a pinch.

Mega Levels & How to lớn Get Them

Following the April 2022 upgrade, Mega Evolutions now have levels so that you can nâng cấp your Mega Pokémon even further.

To achieve a higher Mega level, you will have to lớn Mega Evolve your Pokémon a certain number of times, with each màn chơi coming with its own set of bonuses. On vị trí cao nhất of that, each time that you reach another Mega Level, your Pokémon"s rest period will be reduced meaning you will have to lớn spend less time waiting before you can Mega Evolve them again.

For an idea of how many times you will need khổng lồ perform an evolution before levelling up, check out the handy table below (thanks, Eurogamer for your help with this):

* Bonus only applies lớn Pokémon of the same type as the Mega Evolution

The Advantages Of Having A Mega-Evolved Pokémon

So you’ve got an amazing mega evolution and the clock is ticking… what now?

The most obvious benefit of mega evolving Pokémon is in battle, where they get boosted attacks & combat power (CP).

But, in many cases, mega evolving a Pokémon can also change its type, which can give you a sly advantage in battle.

For example, Mega Charizard X is a fire and dragon type Pokémon. But the creature it evolved from, Charizard, is a fire & flying type.

To understand how Pokémon types can give you the upper hand in battle, check out our guide.

One thing that doesn’t change about mega evolved Pokémon is their fast & charged attacks. These remain exactly the same.

Also remember that mega evolved Pokémon can’t be powered up. To make your mega evolution kick ass, make sure to pump up the Pokémon it evolves from before squandering your mega energy.

Other advantages of having a mega evolved Pokémon are:

Raids

If you use a mega Pokémon in a raid, all the other members of your battle buổi tiệc nhỏ will get an attack boost.

If any of your other Pokémon are the same type as your mega evolution, and are using the same type attacks, they will get an extra battle boost.

So if you have Mega Venusaur on your team, và one of your other Pokémon is a grass type using grass attacks, it’ll get a tasty combat boost.

Even better, when you raid with mega evolved Pokémon, other trainers in the battle also get a battle boost. It’s a great way khổng lồ make new friends!

All trainers in the raid will get a boost for their Pokémon’s attacks, & an additional boost if their attack types match your mega evolved Pokémon.

But if there are a bunch of mega evolved Pokémon in a raid, these bonuses don’t multiply. You’ll only get the highest possible boost from the available mega evolutions, not multiple boosts.

If you win a mega raid, you won’t get a chance to capture the mega evolved Pokémon. But you’ll get a bunch of useful mega energy instead.

Gym battles

You can use mega evolved Pokémon to lớn attack gyms, but you can’t leave them behind as defenders.

During gym battles, using a mega evolved Pokémon gives you the same bonuses as you get in raids.

This includes boosting the Pokémon of any other trainers attacking the thể hình at the same time.

Team GO Rocket battles

Mega evolved Pokémon can be used in battles with Team GO Rocket grunts and leaders.

If you’re having trouble taking down a leader or Giovanni, try a mega evolved Pokémon in your team to lớn tip the balance in your favour.

Player vs player (Pv
P) battles

When battling other trainers in your friends list, you can unleash your mega evolved Pokémon. But you cannot use mega evolved Pokémon in GO Battle League matches.

Mega-Evolved Buddy Pokémon

If a Pokémon in your collection was previously a best buddy, và you mega evolve it & make it your active buddy, you’ll get an extra CP boost in battle. This is in addition khổng lồ the normal boosts you get for a mega evolution.

Bonus Candy From Catches

If a mega evolved Pokémon is your buddy, & you catch a Pokémon of the same species (any form), you’ll get extra candy from your catch.

For example, if Mega Charizard X is your buddy & you catch Charmander, Charmeleon or Charizard in the wild, you’ll get extra candy.

But if you use a pinap berry, this does not multiply the candy bonus.

New Medals

Glory hunters rejoice! There are 2 new mega evolution medals you can earn:
