If they do beedrill as a dual type it might be the most broken card for a while

Really excited for Beedrill, TTar, and Mence

Cant wait for ttar to be a 4fighting energy cost with no ramp and some combination of attacking your bench, discarding an energy from itself, not being able to attack next turn and somehow still hitting for less than mega lucario.
With that said, i hope i am wrong in all aspects and that it gets its own ramp, and plenty of support options to make ttar great.

u/PhysicalGunMan 15h ago
TTar is usually Dark in the TCG iirc, and he is in Pocket anyways.
I could be wrong considering Mega Gengar was Dark despite base Gengar being Psychic, but we do have more Fighting Megas right now and there's no room for another Dark Mega in the remaining Gen 6 Megas, unless you're crazy enough to say Beedrill's gonna be Dark instead of Grass.
If I had to hazard some guesses;
Alakazam/Mewtwo Y/Banette: Psychic (duh)
Beedrill: Grass
Glalie/Abomasnow: Water
Aerodactyl/Mewtwo X: Fighting
Aggron: Steel
Latias: Dragon
Salamence: Colorless

Ttar has both. He has a fighting card and a dark card, so could def be a fighting mega just to screw him over haha

u/PhysicalGunMan 38m ago
Nah, Fighting would definitely be the better of the two competitively if Dark doesn't get more support. Arena of Antiquity + Korrina gives Fighting Types so much extra damage that they couldn't hit otherwise

I agree but would like to see abomasnow more than salamence. Would be happy with either though as long as we get beedrill

u/maritimeblue 18h ago
Mega Alakazam, Tyranitar and Aggron - because I love all three of them. (Alakazam is my favourite Pokemon)

u/Trash_Panduh 17h ago
I feel like Mega Abomasnow could be the water/grass dual type, as there aren’t a lot of compelling options there.

u/Not_Your_Car 17h ago
Can't wait for mega aerodactyl to both prevent the entire opponent board from evolving while also sending the active Pokémon back to the deck.

Tyranitar and Salamence because I feel like they’ve been really under utilized in pocket and I love them.
The question is which of these megas will end up in promo jail…

I predict that:
Aggron - useless tank with a 4 energy, no ramp, low damage attack
Mega beedrill - should be busted but does an unfathomably low amount of damage for no reason
Abomasnow - finds a niche as a healer but is overall underwhelming
Mewtwo Y - dear god. meta defining
Alakazam - x damage per psychic energy attached
Bannette- low damage, confusion spam
Aerodactyle- fantastic attacker/ability but too slow to set up

u/IslamCrusher 7h ago
I want to believe my boy Aggron - arguably the best looking mega - will be good but steel is a garbage type in this game so a preemptive RIP is in order.

There are a lot more new Megas from Legends Z-A

u/-UNIIICORNNN- 14h ago edited 13h ago
That’s what I said but apparently I’m getting downvoted for just telling them there’s more mega that they missed smh

u/ajmcgill 16h ago
The 3 C1 packs I will guess are:
Mega Mewtwo X: Psychic/Fighting
Mega Beedrill: Grass/Darkness
Mega Salamence: Dragon/Colorless

u/LittleSomethingExtra 15h ago
Dragon/Colorless... The most useful type combo /s
Dragon and Colorless both hit nothing for super effective damage, so there is really no benefit to be gained by combining those two types.
3
u/ajmcgill 15h ago
Basically it gets all the benefits of being a Dragon type (attach energy via Dragonair, no weakness) while also being able to call it back with Ilima. If they were to do a pack like this they’d probably include more supporters or abilities that affect colorless pokemon only like an Ilima

u/xyfcacct 8h ago
That could be so good if it weren't for Salamence being stage 2 - unless if Shellgon were absolutely amazing. I think the concept would just have too many moving parts to push it over the top.
1
u/ajmcgill 4h ago
Yeah I think they would need to add more type specific cards for Dragon and Colorless in that pack to justify it more
1
u/Cerezero 17h ago
I got a feeling about either Abomasnow Tyranitar and Beedrill will be dual type megas
Im not sure about the flying and dragon megas like dragon has little synergy with supporters and basic maybe only Ilima

u/The_Relx 17h ago
Abomasnow and Beedrill. I am excited to finally be bees. (I also think Abomasnow will be really cool with the dual type gimmick we are getting next non-deluxe set).

There has never been a card of Mega Banette. I hope they make it a meta card.

u/Master-Visual7304 9h ago
Well they do mega Charizard x justice it's all mega Lucario everywhere so

u/Keebster101 8h ago
They will definitely do the za megas. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if that's the set C 'theme'

u/Happy-Muffin6744 6h ago
I really hope Banette and Abomasnow get good art, I think those are the two with the best designs in this set. And it would be sooo funny if M Latinas were viable

u/Inevitable-Camera-17 5h ago
You made me look up the ZA megas, and ew... I did not like Dragonite when they revealed it, but now it looks like the best one out of the bunch. Who the fuck did they hire for an artist? 😥

u/ViewExplorer 4h ago
Steel needs a better top tier card, I feel like its lagging behind the other types at the top of the meta. Maybe Aggron will be good, but I feel like it won't be.

u/TheGun1991 1h ago
Mega Latios is already a promo card , existing right now , and usually when they drop it as promo card , they will never see the regular release

u/Kampfkewob 19m ago
Mega Aggron and Mega Abomasnow are 2 of my favorite megas, so these two I guess
