Mega Latias and Mega Latios look identical. Can't say I like that. The other two are awesome though.

 

[Maintenance]

Mega Lati@s look boring as hell with the same color, if the shiny is green as the leak predicted it would be even worse. Ugh, what a waste of time.

 

[fwpx]

Beedrill is basically just a mech now.

 

[Yaphett Kotto]

I always thought Mega Latias' sprite was a placeholder on Showdown and in-game. I guess the only difference is the eyes. I don't like that idea.

Mega Pidgeot is looking baws, tho. Which it was as good as it looked.

 

[SkullplateMurray]

You can fly! Did we know that already?

 

[emb]

Why does it have the Mega Latis in two shots? I thought they were supposed to turn into the same thing. They still look the same, just in different poses.

I guess the only difference is the eyes.

Oh.

 

[L~A]

Found the trailer, but only in French for now.

YouTube

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

I hate how the Mega Latis look almost exactly the same. What an incredibly bland design for legendary megas.

 

[DedValve]

what did the original mega lati@s look in X/Y. Any changes to the model?

 

[Magnus]

Trailer's cool. Wow, flying? News to me!

I really loathe the rendition of the main theme used in all these trailers though. Damn. It's so bad.

I can't tell whether the song is actually bad or I just grew to hate it because they play it all the time.

 

[L~A]

Currently uploading over 240 screenshots, coming asap!

 

[Neiteio]

Are we still missing official Sugimori art for Mega Rayquaza?

 

[Haloid1177]

Pidgeot confirmed for best Mega.

 

[L~A]

Are we still missing official Sugimori art for Mega Rayquaza?

Got it!

I can't see the option in the trainer club interface (on mobile) to opt in. Where is it?

 

[Yaphett Kotto]

Serebii Update: US to get demo through October Trainer Club Newsletter

Wow.

What the fuck is a eShop.

 

[Not75Drops]

Mega steelix?

 

[NoCryingUntilTheEnd]

omg that video is getting me so hyped. The map and being able to fly around with your Pokemon looks damn good. What team is behind this game? Same team that was behind Black/White?

 

[Orniletter]

Holy fuck, 3D overworld when you use fly.

So glad I signed up for that newsletter that I never read like 4 years ago. When is the October one going out?

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

Wow.

What the fuck is a eShop.

Let me say for the billionth time that having a limited release demo was a really stupid idea. The 5 people out there who don't know how a Pokemon game plays are not going to go out of their way to grab a code. Especially when they'll all be eaten up by hardcore fans that want the exclusive mega (another stupid idea)

[TheSlySoul]

While the Mega Latis are boring, at least we know using "Fly" actually allows you to fly over the OW which is awesome!
Also, no reason to get Black or White since we get the legendaries. Score!

 

[Bullza2o]

So glad I signed up for that newsletter that I never read like 4 years ago. When is the October one going out?

According to my email history, I received the last newsletter on 9/20. So maybe 10/20?

Doesn't seem to appear on mobile.

I'll try again later at home.

 

[RAWi]

Holy fuck, 3D overworld when you use fly.

So much this!!!! Looks sooooooo good. I will be flying non-stop xD.

Hope there is a "Quick-Fly" option for those that like the classic-way.

 

[JazzmanZ]

heh the multinav uses the original R/S/E over world sprites.

Mega Steelix is hype, also I'm changing my avatar to Mega Rayquaza now

 

[narton]

According to my email history, I received the last newsletter on 9/20. So maybe 10/20?

If I'm correct, all you have to do is say I want to receive emails in my trainer club account to get the newsletter, right? I hope it's not too late.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

Does this mean Ash is going to get Pidgeot back in the anime

 

[SerTapTap]

Mega Glalie looks more like a Rock/Ice type Gengar than a Glalie.

 

[Biochet]

omg free roaming in hoenn?

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

Looks like Lati@s joins you in the main story without a battle. Makes sense because they have a brand new feature linked to them now.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Mega Steelix... All of my want wrapped up in a steel crystal pokemon!

 

[Thorakai]

all right, mega steelix is definitely over designed

 

[Kid Ska]

I have a Trainer Club account, but I don't get the newsletter. How do I change that?

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Mega Steelix and Mega Glalie both look excellent actually. Wow after a lot of awful megas in X/Y it's like they're trying to rectify this.

 

[Ushojax]

So is the new flying mode just for Latios/Latias?

 

[Mr Swine]

W00t W00t W00t MEGA STEELIX???

Mine mine mine mine!

 

[cafemomo]

Holy shit. there's a mega ray quay quay?

when did this happen

 

[L~A]

Forgot to add that in the OP, but the two new Megas revealed today (Steelix) are in the demo.

 

[Magnus]

Official details on the process. Sign up pre Oct 20 (which means the newsletter will probably be going out that day, as others have noted)

 

[ArchedThunder]

Damn it, I can't get rid of the white artifacts, can someone else try and make a Mega Rayquaza avatar for me?

 

[Dorsal Axe]

I love how it shows the GBA Ruby/Sapphire overworld on the Pokénav.

 

[ArchedThunder]

All the new Megas are demonstrated fighting Pokemon with Megas, except Beedrill is fighting a Shiftry. Just reveal Mega Shiftry already, guys.

 

[domlolz]

So is the new flying mode just for Latios/Latias?

i hope not
