In Pokemon X & Y, Charizard Receives Same Mega Evolution Treatment as Mewtwo

-

Mega Charizard X_Official Art_300dpiLast month it was announced that alongside the three new starter Pokemon in Pokemon X and Y editions set to hit stores later this month, they will be adding a touch of nostalgia to the mix by providing the opportunity to obtain one of the three original starters – Bulbasaur, Charmander or Squirtle. Each of these three once fully evolved will have access to a Mega Evolution. But it has been confirmed that like Mewtwo, at least Charizard will have access to different evolution’s based on the game you are playing. The formerly announced design was for Pokemon Y, with the Pokemon X evolution “Mega Charizard X” pictured to the left.

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. 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.

In Pokemon 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.
