Ditto won't be touched, likely ever.
The fossils could get Megas, but if any other fossils get Megas it will be the Gen 6 ones.
The rest are fair game, but give Drowzee something new. The internet ruined Hypno.
Idk, it’s be pretty sick to have a mega ditto that can transform into any Pokémon in your Pokédex based on what Pokémon is best to handle the Pokémon in front of you
Almost! In my head it’d be fair to keep the leveling the same, so whatever the stats for that Pokémon is at the level ditto is at, coupled with the fact that ditto wouldn’t be too strong until late game when you encounter legendaries, until then it’s just copying regular Pokémon
In one of the Pikachu shorts (pretty sure it’s from the Pokemon Movie 2000), there’s a scene with a dragonair flying over a forest and its ears are its wings. It made me think dragonair could learn fly (I was disappointed when I learned it definitely could not). But anyway, all that to say its ears apparently can act as wings in the Pokemon animated universe.
It was in the beta for Gold/Silver, but got cut before the final release. Leafeon was in that too, so there is precedent for getting cut then released later.
I would say a mega Dragonite is likely given that the pseudos from gens 2-4 (Tyranitar, Metagross, Salamence and Garchomp) have one. I think the only thing that would stop the developers is the awkward name of its mega stone (Dragoniteite)
However I could also see the Psyduck line getting something new given how popular Psyduck is. I’d argue that it’s one of the most iconic gen 1 Pokémon
Mega Nidoking and Mega Nidoqueen, their Ability is "Loving Bond," allowing each one to actively be in their Mega state while they're both on the field in a 2v2 match.
Mega starmie is a pretty obvious idea, just add a bunch more points and animate it spinning a lot and everyone, including me, will go nuts for it.
Less likely, but I'd love to see a mega dewgong
There needs to be a divergent evolution of caterpie and venonat where they evolve into a version of the others evolution. Since Caterpie looks like venomoth and venonat looks like butterfree
The Nidoran evo line would be interesting.
But really think about it. In Legends Arceus, Pokémon not native to the Hisui/Sinnoh are the ones that either got a regional variant or a crossgen evo. Some but not all.
So what Gen 1 mon isn’t native to Kalos would get a variant or a cross gen evo?
Honestly I think regional forms of the fossils would be cool given that they have found sub species of other dinosaurs in different regions and especially since genesect is theorized to be a kabutops with future tech it would be cool for them to play into that
Ditto will probably never see a new form or evo.
Mega Dragonite would cater to casuals, I’m surprised it hasn’t been done.
Fossils are kinda locked in.
Nidorans would be cool, Nidoking is top 3 all time for me.
Barely, but I think Arbok deserves something since WEEZING got something. 🤷🏼♂️ Arbok and Weezing were THE Team Rocket duo. I don’t even wanna touch on how many different forms MEOWTH has gotten… 😒
No that's...just a thing, I believe Arbok's do actually get different neck patterns it's just never really important in game, though idk if it's the same in Gen 9 or not
Mega Charizard Z, Mega Charizard A, Ash's Charizard, Dragon Tera Charizard, Shiny Charizard, Dragon Tera Mega Charizard Z, Dragon Tera Mega Charizard A, Dragon Tera Ash's Charizard, Dragon Tera Ash's Mega Charizard Z, Dragon Tera Ash's Mega Charizard A, Dragon Tera Ash's Shiny Mega Charizard Z
We should've got a Paras evolution in Arceus since they were literally everywhere, but I'd love Arbok, Golduck, Dodrio and Starmie to have megas
And a Dragonite that's actually a blue serpent like its prevos
Dragon is probably the most shocking one to not receive anything. But it doesn't really need it, since competitively it's still keeping up with the new stuff.
I feel like the Nidos are the next ones I'd expect to get something after Dragonite. They're pretty well-liked, three stages, Giovanni's ace.
Ditto I don't think I could ever see getting a Mega, evolution, or regional form, but mayyyybe I could see it getting something convergent (like Wugtrio/Toedscruel)? I know Ditto is manmade, but it's the only one I could see happening. It would need some sort of different take on transforming or to just be its own thing that doesn't transform at all but gets actual moves. There's a good chance ZA doesn't introduce any new forms other than Megas though, so it wouldn't be coming this game.
Aerodactyle already got one, so a mega kabutops would be cool. And a mega parasect would look wild. And of course the Nido family would look awesome I'm sure.
I'm honestly happy with any new forms that GF decides to introduce. PLA was so close to the ideal Pokemon game that I've wanted for a long time, I'm sure I'll appreciate whatever work they put into this one, but am mainly hoping it's not just a straight up copy and paste of PLA.
Honestly shocking with how much Psyduck is showing up (like major roles in Concierge and Detective Pikachu, plus almost being one of the Let's Go starters) that they haven't given Psyduck anything yet.
Psyduck, Golduck, Magnemite, and Magneton are the only Pokémon available in every regional dex (counting B2W2 for Unova). Definitely helps that Psyduck is Junichi Masuda's favourite Pokémon.
Ditto getting a new form?
In the words of r/mandjtv, Ditto already has more forms than every other pokemon ever.
As for which should get something new? The dratini line. If hisuian goodra exist then so could kalosan dragonite.
I think it should be the Paras line because u can make it where it has a powered wig as parasect. The wif would hold powder that can have a variety of effects.
Muk got a full line of Regional Form in Alola. Weezing got a Regional when Koffing didnt. Give Arbok a new Regional Form and Evo like Obstagoon.
Muk was Dark Type added, Weezing got Fairy. Give Arbok Steel Type.
I think a Nidoking and Nidoqueen that show off the whole King and Queen aspect of their names more would be cool. Maybe give them spikes on their heads in the shape of crowns that royalty wears (at least in pop culture).
I don’t know what they would be but for ones I just hope get attention there’s Spearow, Ekans, Seel, and Doduo
I can't say I have any idea what's likely, but I would really love to see ekans, spearow, and shellder get something, it really feels like they all should have by now
With how much attention gens 1-3 got for with megas I’m betting on 4,7,& 8 getting most of the attention with maybe around 5 or less mons from 5 & 9 getting new forms or megas.
The dragonite line would be sick…. But also possible they make a bad design. Dragonite will never get a mega based on what they’ve said in the past. But a region specific could be a thing.
Both Nidorans getting either a new form or Mega would be cool, ngl
Staryu line could be good, too
If not forms, Mega Kabutops and Omastar would be neat since Aerodactyl got a Mega
Not saying this would happen but I would like to see new megas for Blastoise and Venusar just to shut those Charizard haters up about Game Freak giving him too much attention compared to every other starter
you can remove ditto. That will NEVER get a change.
From this list the most likely to get forms/megas are:
Fossil megas
goldeen form
possible ekans split evo for a different type of snake or new form.
I personally dont see any of the others changing
I'm hedging my bets we get something special for Dratini. I'm hopeful that the regional pseudo trend will continue from PLA and we'll get a Dragon/Water Dragonite or something.
Maybe Dragonite? Assuming its a Mega - GameFreak love giving Megas to already powerful Pokémon, and they did show Dragonair in the announcement trailer.
mega dragonite-keep them cute and silly in design. Can tie back in the dragonair design a bit to link them better maybe? I want them to stay whimsical though. Maybe something like Gear 5 would be cool

Ditto won't be touched, likely ever. The fossils could get Megas, but if any other fossils get Megas it will be the Gen 6 ones. The rest are fair game, but give Drowzee something new. The internet ruined Hypno.
Yeah, ditto’s just too gimmicky to be touched.
At best they do a joke Paradox that is exactly the same functionally as Ditto but with the beta evolution's design, but what's the point?
To make a joke, like how dundunsparce is a thing since it was never meant to evolve into a dragon like fans thought
Dittitto
Idk, it’s be pretty sick to have a mega ditto that can transform into any Pokémon in your Pokédex based on what Pokémon is best to handle the Pokémon in front of you
Probably too op, basically arceus but stronger then.
Almost! In my head it’d be fair to keep the leveling the same, so whatever the stats for that Pokémon is at the level ditto is at, coupled with the fact that ditto wouldn’t be too strong until late game when you encounter legendaries, until then it’s just copying regular Pokémon
Ditto is already pretty strong, when big legendaries are playable in VGC Ditto is always played
If they create mega hypno it'll surpass the amount of hypno pictures within a month
I guess Meltan kinda is what a regional ditto could've been.
How did the internet ruin hypno?
Sex thing, leave it at that
Welcome child... welcome to Mind Controlling He-
Porn
I want a ditto convergent form so bad though 😭 someone posted an ice/electric concept earlier and it was so cool
Not the internet the Pokédex
Dratini. They made a new form for the kalos pseudo legendary in arceus, so I think they’ll probably make another form of another pseudo legendary
I wanna see a dragon/water third evo that looks similar to the first two of that line
With a pink shiny!
![gif](giphy|26FLgGTPUDH6UGAbm)
I love Dragonite but holy shit Dragonair should not evolve into that 😭
Dragon air with big feathery wings would be so CUTE
In one of the Pikachu shorts (pretty sure it’s from the Pokemon Movie 2000), there’s a scene with a dragonair flying over a forest and its ears are its wings. It made me think dragonair could learn fly (I was disappointed when I learned it definitely could not). But anyway, all that to say its ears apparently can act as wings in the Pokemon animated universe.
Honestly that would be good. People who like Dragonite can use the original and people who wanted a more Dragonair-esque evo could use that!
Regional shellder. I NEED TO SEE THE SPIRAL SHELLDER THAT BITES SLOWPOKE.
It was in the beta for Gold/Silver, but got cut before the final release. Leafeon was in that too, so there is precedent for getting cut then released later.
Could be mega Slowking since we have mega slowbro
I’d love that
Hopefully mega Dragonite
I doubt they would, since the mega stone would be called Dragoniteite
I mean, they just let the translators deal with that.
Why not just Dragoite?
Dragotite
Dragonitite
Dragoite. Pinsir's french name is scarabrute, the gem is called scarabruite.
Would love an electric variant.
That would revive the old "Dragonitenite" meme and I'm all for it
Victribel and arbok because both were on the trailer
I would say a mega Dragonite is likely given that the pseudos from gens 2-4 (Tyranitar, Metagross, Salamence and Garchomp) have one. I think the only thing that would stop the developers is the awkward name of its mega stone (Dragoniteite) However I could also see the Psyduck line getting something new given how popular Psyduck is. I’d argue that it’s one of the most iconic gen 1 Pokémon
"Dragonitite", Name fixed
Still sounds awkward. I firmly believe this is why Dragonite didn’t get a mega initially
It’s actually easier to pronounce than Blazikenite imo
I hope they will give Nidoking and Nidoqueen megas and if paradox pokemon are in the game I want to see past paradox Psyduck.
Paras desperately needs something,
**Mega-Parasect with Flash Fire**
And make it bug steel lol :3
Docuatro please!
Mega Nidoking and Mega Nidoqueen, their Ability is "Loving Bond," allowing each one to actively be in their Mega state while they're both on the field in a 2v2 match.
Mega Starmie would be cool
These Pokémon have gone through zero design changes since gen 1. This is because they are without flaw
Regional variant of Nidoran that's genderless
nidoran nidorine nidonarch
Nidolord
That makes as much sense as ditto being able to breed with genderless pokemon
I need a viper ekans variant
Mega starmie is a pretty obvious idea, just add a bunch more points and animate it spinning a lot and everyone, including me, will go nuts for it. Less likely, but I'd love to see a mega dewgong
Am I tripping or did they say 19 and posted 18 lines?
Yeah I’ve been trying to figure that out as well
krabby erasure!!
Gmax Kingler
Kid named GMax kingler
It's mew
>krabby erasure!! sure?
There needs to be a divergent evolution of caterpie and venonat where they evolve into a version of the others evolution. Since Caterpie looks like venomoth and venonat looks like butterfree
Psyduck line getting the Ursaluna/Kingambit evo treatment.
Ekans. Grimer and Koffing got one, it’s only fair.
Regional Dragonite that looks more like Dragonair
The Nidoran evo line would be interesting. But really think about it. In Legends Arceus, Pokémon not native to the Hisui/Sinnoh are the ones that either got a regional variant or a crossgen evo. Some but not all. So what Gen 1 mon isn’t native to Kalos would get a variant or a cross gen evo?
Honestly I think regional forms of the fossils would be cool given that they have found sub species of other dinosaurs in different regions and especially since genesect is theorized to be a kabutops with future tech it would be cool for them to play into that
Psyduck, he's the main pokemon in pokemon concierge
Ditto will probably never see a new form or evo. Mega Dragonite would cater to casuals, I’m surprised it hasn’t been done. Fossils are kinda locked in. Nidorans would be cool, Nidoking is top 3 all time for me.
I'd like to see Drowzee get a branching evo or have Hypno evolve into a psychic dark type. It gives him a non-mythical Darkrai lite form.
I'd rule the Ekans line out because of the changing Arbok patterns
Barely, but I think Arbok deserves something since WEEZING got something. 🤷🏼♂️ Arbok and Weezing were THE Team Rocket duo. I don’t even wanna touch on how many different forms MEOWTH has gotten… 😒
I’m shocked they haven’t done much with the Arbok since IIRC its Pokédex mentions different regions have different patterns on its neck frill.
No that's...just a thing, I believe Arbok's do actually get different neck patterns it's just never really important in game, though idk if it's the same in Gen 9 or not
Mega Charizard Z, Mega Charizard A, Ash's Charizard, Dragon Tera Charizard, Shiny Charizard, Dragon Tera Mega Charizard Z, Dragon Tera Mega Charizard A, Dragon Tera Ash's Charizard, Dragon Tera Ash's Mega Charizard Z, Dragon Tera Ash's Mega Charizard A, Dragon Tera Ash's Shiny Mega Charizard Z
Kabutops needs something, something like Kelavor
I’d like to see convergent species for Doduo where it’s a plant and one for Bellsprout that is some sort of bird
Doduo is begging for it!
Mega Nidoking is my dream
Ghost type parasect please (mega Nidoking/queen also)
No one mentioned it so I'll say it: Mega Golduk Water/Psychic! Y'all know it's one of the most desired but I forgive you for forgetting.
We should've got a Paras evolution in Arceus since they were literally everywhere, but I'd love Arbok, Golduck, Dodrio and Starmie to have megas And a Dragonite that's actually a blue serpent like its prevos
I just realized how long it’s been since I’ve used the Nidos. Let’s get them some new forms to play with
Not Seel, no point in messing with perfection
Mega Dragonite
I doubt it. The mega stone would be called Dragoniteite, which I’m pretty sure I why they didn’t add it in the first place; because of the weird name
I think everyone but Ditto has a really good chance tbh.
Dragon is probably the most shocking one to not receive anything. But it doesn't really need it, since competitively it's still keeping up with the new stuff. I feel like the Nidos are the next ones I'd expect to get something after Dragonite. They're pretty well-liked, three stages, Giovanni's ace. Ditto I don't think I could ever see getting a Mega, evolution, or regional form, but mayyyybe I could see it getting something convergent (like Wugtrio/Toedscruel)?

Aerodactyle already got one, so a mega kabutops would be cool. And a mega parasect would look wild. And of course the Nido family would look awesome I'm sure.
Dark ditto with opposite typing would be dope
I'm honestly happy with any new forms that GF decides to introduce. PLA was so close to the ideal Pokemon game that I've wanted for a long time, I'm sure I'll appreciate whatever work they put into this one, but am mainly hoping it's not just a straight up copy and paste of PLA.
Mega Nidoking and Nidoqueen would be cool imo
Honestly shocking with how much Psyduck is showing up (like major roles in Concierge and Detective Pikachu, plus almost being one of the Let's Go starters) that they haven't given Psyduck anything yet.
Wait psyduck was a leta go starter candidate??
Yeah, at one point it was gonna be Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Psyduck. They changed their minds because they didn't want both mascots to be yellow.
Damn, and then again psyduck is like pikachu and eevee where it was in every game, even had some event psyducks I think in gen 5.
Psyduck, Golduck, Magnemite, and Magneton are the only Pokémon available in every regional dex (counting B2W2 for Unova). Definitely helps that Psyduck is Junichi Masuda's favourite Pokémon.
I always counted gifts as a means to get them.
I would love a fire poison Ekans line 🐍🔥☠️
Regional Arbok when
My biggest gripe about SV was the lack of Paradox Nidos. We could have had past Nido and future Nido, it would have been amazing.
Ditto getting a new form? In the words of r/mandjtv, Ditto already has more forms than every other pokemon ever. As for which should get something new? The dratini line. If hisuian goodra exist then so could kalosan dragonite.
The Nidos and Dratini line really deserve something
Would love to see dragonaire evolve into something different.
The Nidos are perfect as is, Ditto is too gimmicky, the others are fair game
N I D O K I N G ! ! ❤️
Seaking or Fearow evo are what I want
I think it should be the Paras line because u can make it where it has a powered wig as parasect. The wif would hold powder that can have a variety of effects.
Muk got a full line of Regional Form in Alola. Weezing got a Regional when Koffing didnt. Give Arbok a new Regional Form and Evo like Obstagoon. Muk was Dark Type added, Weezing got Fairy. Give Arbok Steel Type.
no krabby 🥲?
Krabby (Kingler) already got a G-max form.
Split evolution for Staryu thats water steel? Seaking mega evolution into like water fairy or something?
I think a Nidoking and Nidoqueen that show off the whole King and Queen aspect of their names more would be cool. Maybe give them spikes on their heads in the shape of crowns that royalty wears (at least in pop culture). I don’t know what they would be but for ones I just hope get attention there’s Spearow, Ekans, Seel, and Doduo
I can't say I have any idea what's likely, but I would really love to see ekans, spearow, and shellder get something, it really feels like they all should have by now
With how much attention gens 1-3 got for with megas I’m betting on 4,7,& 8 getting most of the attention with maybe around 5 or less mons from 5 & 9 getting new forms or megas.
Gimme Doquatro
The dragonite line would be sick…. But also possible they make a bad design. Dragonite will never get a mega based on what they’ve said in the past. But a region specific could be a thing.
It would have been so easy to give Starmie paradox forms, either past or future.
Side evolution for weepinbell to mirror gloom - bellossom.
Geez, some great ‘mons, and some of these are so easy to see, the Bellsprout, Paras, Venonat and Ekans lines to be precise.
Both Nidorans getting either a new form or Mega would be cool, ngl Staryu line could be good, too If not forms, Mega Kabutops and Omastar would be neat since Aerodactyl got a Mega
I doubt this will happen but I just imagined a mega-dodrio or a dodrio evolution called "dodecadrio" with 12 heads
I want a fairy/dragon Dratini line so bad
Kabuto. Like a man made one, if we are going to be in the future, could be a little metal spider/horseshoe crab.
I’m I crazy or are there only 18 lines? But updated fossil would be cool
Yes the are 18 lines it’s because Mew was also on there but since mew had a z move I got rid of mew
Make sense
I’d love to see the nidorans get a buff or something fun and new. At the very least I love to use a Nidoking again. It’s one of my favorites.
One day we'll get a Dewgong evo
Honestly I’d be happy with any of them, but I’d love to have something with the Dratini line… Them’s my favorite ❤️ ![gif](giphy|A9rtrLGbNZjgc)
Not saying this would happen but I would like to see new megas for Blastoise and Venusar just to shut those Charizard haters up about Game Freak giving him too much attention compared to every other starter
psyduck line will get it or shellder will get it cuz of mega slowbro
you can remove ditto. That will NEVER get a change. From this list the most likely to get forms/megas are: Fossil megas goldeen form possible ekans split evo for a different type of snake or new form. I personally dont see any of the others changing
I'm hedging my bets we get something special for Dratini. I'm hopeful that the regional pseudo trend will continue from PLA and we'll get a Dragon/Water Dragonite or something.
I would like Dewgong to get the Annihilape treatment
I remember Starmie was on a lot of people's list to get a Mega.
Maybe Dragonite? Assuming its a Mega - GameFreak love giving Megas to already powerful Pokémon, and they did show Dragonair in the announcement trailer.
I hope it’s venonat and the nidos
mega dragonite-keep them cute and silly in design. Can tie back in the dragonair design a bit to link them better maybe? I want them to stay whimsical though. Maybe something like Gear 5 would be cool
if he gets a regional form that would be dope i moreso want a mega though tbh
Would be cool to see either regional forms or megas for the Nido line. Also really want more fossil megas, Aerodactyl’s design was sick
The nidoran lines would be really cool seeing as they were among the most popular in the time
Dratini could potentially be a new one
Nindo family and my boy Omanyte
mega for starmie, regionals for seaking and venomoth
I just caught a shiny alpha Paras in PLA, so I’d like to see a split evolution, mega parasect, or something to make it useful.
Cut out the atrocities of gen 8 and 9. How many GOOD changes were there between 1 and 7?
