    Attacking twice in a row, oh boy how will this go?

    The X and Y soundtrack being released on iTunes sounds pretty cool. I hope they don’t make it super-expensive though, because I’d rather not pay $200+ for the 202 songs being put on there.

    Psh, that won’t ever be as good as my Eviolite Mawile, get on my LEVEL.

    Some of the “songs” might just be 5-second snippets for getting an item, catching a mon, etc. Other RPGs like Mother 3 have had almost 250 sounds on there but only half are actual full-length tracks.

    Also I think it was Evan (or so I thought I heard on the video) who put MegaKanga the best way:

    gg Focus Sash

    I’ve got a feeling that Mega Pokemon won’t be allowed in VGC.

    They most likely will, I’ve heard now that you can only have one Mega Pokemon per Team.

    Where did you hear that from?
     
    Besides Kangaskhan, I made a pretty good list of possible Mega Pokémon if anyone wants to scrutinize my work.

    I found it on Serebii.

     From what I’ve read at  Serebii, these Mega Pokes are only a form change, so Eviolite Mawile is still a fantasy lol
     
    I prefer the Mega Pokes being different forms rather than evos, it settles with me better. I don’t think my little heart could take 4 stage evolutions, and an evolving Mewtwo wouldn’t make it any better.

    I really do think we need English confirmation on what Serebii is reporting.  The way that’s translated could mean starkly different things.  Do they mean one per team, one at a time, one on the field, one of each species, or something else?  They  way they have reported it is way too vague to come to any conclusions.
     
    Also, the video gets unfortunately blurry right as Kangaskhan (M) uses whatever move it used.  Can anyone remember what it said?  I’m checking another video to see if its any clearer.

  11. PK Gaming says:

    Having a Pokemon officially shown at worlds is so cool. 
     
    Good job guys.

    HOLY…O.O

  13. lucariojr says:

    its a shame megakhan doesn’t keep scrappy imo. though think of the applications with rock slide…

  14. DeathKurai says:

    I´ve hoped that the baby kangashan plays a role one day.
    The mega evolution looks great too. I´m interested to see which stats that pokémon haves.

  15. I have a feeling Mega Kangaskhan will be a really good Pokemon in the VGCs.

  16. mattj says:

    I laughed out loud when I saw on Tinycartridge, one of my favorite 3DS news sites, that they featured the Nugget Bridge video specifically to highlight that “people are literally losing their **** over Kangaskahn (M)”.

  17. plaid says:

    They should’ve gotten my reaction to this news then. IT’s GETTING OUT OF ITS YAMSING POUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

  18. SeiferA says:

    I for one welcome our mega kangy overlords.

    Seriously, though, I have to wonder how much more competitive kangaskhan will be with this new mega form. And if serebii is correct on the whole “one mega pokemon in a team” rule, I can see these being played in competitive tournies legally.

    Say “Goodbye” to Lvl. 1 Aron. And focus sash Shedinja possibly. Lol
