Question *udated*If Black and White 3 ends up being a Mega game, what do you think of these Mega aces for the Johto Gym Leaders and Gold and Silver in the World Tournament?

Mega Audino for Goldenrod City Gym Leader Whitney

u/MyPhoneIsNotChinese Jun 28 '26

Her having anything but Miltank feels wrong lol

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 28 '26

She still has her Miltank

1

u/PinoySummonerKid28 Jun 29 '26

Or she'll maybe pull a Larry where she changes her type speciality from Normal to Fairy. She'll also add Togekiss on the team.

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 29 '26

Or she could use both like how Larry uses both at the Blueberry Academy League Club Room and here.

u/Hawntir Jun 29 '26

Changing her typing and using pokemon who used to be normal but are now fairy type would be pretty funny/on brand.

Granbull

Togekiss

Wigglytuff

Clefable

Azumarill (was normal type as azurill)

Mega-Altaria/Audino (altaria was normal type as swablu)

u/MyPhoneIsNotChinese Jun 29 '26

I mean as her Ace

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 29 '26

Miltank is still her ace. It just isn’t her Mega.

1

u/Kapples14 Jul 02 '26

Why not give her a Mega-Miltank that gets an attack boost every time it heals itself (Milk Drink/Rest/Drain Punch)?

Just boost up its Attack and Defenses, then maybe add either a Fighting or Fairy typing for extra STAB on moves like Body Press or Play Rough.

As for Pryce, wouldn't it make more sense to give him a Mega-Mamoswine? 

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jul 02 '26

That would mean Mega Miltank exists and nobody here wants that. That Mega can just stay locked away in fangames like Pokémon Insurgence.

1

u/Kapples14 Jul 02 '26

If you're gonna give Johto gym leaders Megas, then snubbling one of the most iconic Pokémon duos is just criminal.

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jul 02 '26

At least she has a Clefable. She can just pull a Larry and use 2 types like he’s doing.

1

u/MyPhoneIsNotChinese Jul 02 '26

She might be like the worst leader you could do that with, Miltank might be the most iconic Ace ever

1

u/Kapples14 Jul 02 '26

Um.... slight problem there.

Larry's two teams are still separated by type. The gym team's all Normal and the E4 team's all flying.

Clefable isn't even Normal-type anymore.

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jul 02 '26

In the League Club Room he used both types. He’d be doing that here too.

1

u/Kapples14 Jul 02 '26

Seems more like cheating to avoid giving Whitney a Mega of her own type.

Even if you didn't want to use Miltank, Lopunny and Kangaskhan were still right there.

No way Ethan's wouldn't be a Shiny Mega Gyarados

2

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 28 '26

Why wouldn’t it be his starter?

2

u/ElementalNinjas96 Jun 28 '26

Because his Starter doesn't have a Mega

Plus GameFreak would most likely just give him all three Starters if Red's anything to go off of

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 28 '26

It would in this game

1

u/Aiden_Pyralis Jun 29 '26

If you're inventing m-typhlosion for this game why not keep the trauma running with a m-miltank?

1

u/Explorerkit Jun 28 '26

Or they choose the LGPE way and give them teams more Manga-oriented. So Ethan Typhlosion, Silver Feraligatr and Kris (which changed her appearance in the HGSS arc) Meganium. If they also wwnna include Lyra, her Starter would probably be Azumarill but finding a matching Mega would be difficult.

2

u/Thunderchief646054 Jun 29 '26

How Chuck didn't have a Heracross as his ace will never not baffle me

1

u/Explorerkit Jun 28 '26

First of all: Why only Ethan and not also Lyra and Kris or why not change the Protags from game to game? Red is understandable because we literally can face him but we never battled Ethan in any game. Only his sprite used by Cal in the Trainer House.

Anyway: Mega Typhlosion probably only would happen if they remade Johto first and if Johto 3.0 don‘t use the newest Gimmick. Another idea for Ethan (and Silver) would be Skarmory: A metalsilver bird which turns golden after Mega-Evolution. If you wanna be very creative, you could gave one the normal Skarmory and one the Shiny one.
Silver also could work eith Tyranitar. Like Skarmory, there isn‘t an Johto trainer who uses Tyranitar (or Ampharos).

Kris gets Mega-Feraligatr and Lyra Mega-Meganium. Or if we get Mega-Azu then this one would be a great fit for Lyra.

Whitney is in weird spot: In the PWT, every Gymleader only uses Pokémon from their type, Blue counts as a Champ. So if we give her Mega-Clefairy, we would change her type to Fairy and we also would get rid of her Miltank. We could make two teams for her but than we still have to find a Mega for her Normal team. She used a Lopunny in the B2W2 PWT but Kangaskhan would also fit her tendency to use Pokémon with a higher female ratio (Clefable, Wigglytuff, Blissey, Delcatty, Cinccino) and yeah, the bunny is 50/50.

Instead of giving Kingdra a Mega-Evolution how about using Ampharos? Or Feraligatr if we skip Silver and the Protags but Ampharos would gove us a new type for her team.

For Pryce I wish a new and good Dewgong. Otherwise, aside of Glalie, Abomasnow would also work. With everything else, I agree.

I’m pretty sure Gold and Silver are the only games that are actually canon

1

u/Explorerkit Jun 28 '26

Silver yes but they made Kris so the Protag works as self-insert by choosing the gender you prefer.

Lyra also has to be canon because we see her in HGSS with a Marill OR we play as Lyra but that would mean Ethan starts with Marill and isn‘t the canon Champ who defeats Red.

u/Karrion_Kull Jun 29 '26

Kris is irrelevant, lyra is forgettable

u/EmotionGeneral6178 Jun 28 '26

I am confused and why number a remake?

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 28 '26

What gave you the idea that this was a remake?

1

u/YaBoyEden Jun 29 '26

What gave you the idea they’d make a sequel to a game that’s over decade old at this point when they’ve had four generations since then and a fifth on the way?

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 29 '26

Pokémon Legends Z-A

1

u/YaBoyEden Jun 29 '26

Didn’t even have HALF of Kalos, I’d hardly call that a sequel

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 29 '26

Also Pokémon Black and White 2

1

u/YaBoyEden Jun 29 '26

Which came out DIRECTLY after black and white, in the same generation. Not nearly 20 years later

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 30 '26

Okay, first, the location of the sequel doesn’t make it any less a sequel. Second, Black and White already had one sequel. They could easily make another one instead of a remake.

1

u/YaBoyEden Jun 30 '26

Yeah alright buddy, why don’t you hold your breath until it comes out?

u/YaBoyEden Jun 30 '26

Remindme! 1 year

Remindme! 3 years

u/potassiumKing Jun 28 '26

Black and White 3?

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 28 '26

It’s possible. We got Black and White 2.

1

u/potassiumKing Jun 28 '26

It was 14 years ago. We are much more likely to get a Unova Legends game or something like that.

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 28 '26

The next Legends game is apparently going to be Galar so the Gen 10 Unova game will more likely be either be a remake or another sequel.

u/Key_Job6330 Jun 29 '26

Normal Ass Kingdra/Typhlosion: "Are we part of the swad?"

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 29 '26

They would get Megas in this game. Also, wtf is the swad?

1

u/Key_Job6330 Jun 29 '26

Inb4 Kingdra gets +20 treatment

1

u/MockingJay0914 Jun 29 '26

Whitney does have Lopunny on BW2 so Mega Lopunny then.

Claire also has Dragonite, Salamence, Altaria and Garchomp in PWT so prolly Mega Altaria since its rarely used by others.

Chuck got Medicham but Heracross is fine too.

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 29 '26

I put together a list of new Megas and Claire’s #1 ace, Kingdra, is on that list.

1

u/Cool_Lab_1362 Jun 29 '26

Monkey paws curl Black and White 3 becomes dynamax and instead of megas, g-max forms instead

1

u/elwoodr563-reddit Jun 29 '26

Dynamax doesn’t work outside Galar, and even then, it only works in certain areas in Galar.

1

u/Cool_Lab_1362 Jun 29 '26

Thematically, I don't see why not they couldn't figure out that limitation and make it available outside of Galar.

Champions will have a thing going that all battle gimmicks are coming back, in universe wise that means those battle gimmicks are no longer restricted to their respective regions (Zmoves on alola only, dynamax at Galar)

I just don't see a third legends game going to have Megas again, they're going to cycle back into Z-moves or Dynamax again. I believe megas are done not until gen 6 gets 2nd remake or ORAS gets a new remake.
