Once you're evolved you're evolved, it's not retroactive. So I doubt it'd do anything, and Knock Off isn't a Priority Move, so it wouldn't go before a Mega Evolution.Rune Yagami said:Guys...
Mega Evolutions require an item...What happens if you use knock-off on a Mega Evolved Pokemon? OMG every Tentacruel is going to have knock-off now.

PS. Am I the only one who actually prefers the Y-only revealed Evos so far? <_<
As far as I understand it, a MegaEvolution is inevitable, and happens before your chosen attack for the turn. Correct me if I'm wrong though...Baktwerel said:Sheriff_K said:Once you're evolved you're evolved, it's not retroactive.

What though if the person doesn't megaevolve their pokemon right away and the opponent uses knock off? Will that make their pokemon unable to megaevolve?

We'll have to see, but if it were possible, why wouldn't they choose to MegaEvolve, especially if the opponent has a Pokemon that can learn Knock Off?

Baktwerel said:Haverok said:That's why I think the whole mechanic is VERY interesting, and the main reason for including Megalutions was Eviolite.
This is the perfect Anti-Eviolite way to give new stages to our favourite Pokemon. Also with Charizard (and possibly few other Pokemon too) you gain additional twist, because the opponent is not sure, which Mega do you posses. I can see many uses for both. Can't wait for the second Venusaur, though.
Edit: That's a VERY good question. Would you even be able to switch a Mega, or is it to epic to be contained?
A fansite that shouldn not be named posted this a few days ago:
During the final episode of Pokémon Smash, it was finally fully showcased how Mega Evolutions work in battle, answering a question that has been in place in some parts of the fandom since the revelation. It proved that you can have a Mega Evolution in combat if your opponent also has one, with this footage being the first showcase of two Mega Evolutions being seen in battle, as seen in this battle where Mega Ampharos was used against Mega Blaziken confirming that it is one per trainer in battle, not one overall per battle.
If someone wants to confuse their opponents, they should have more Pokemon in their team capable of mega evolution, especially ones that have multiple formes. This way the opponent will wonder which Pokemon will megaevolve and into which form if it has multiple.

Bolt the Cat said:No fair, why is X getting all of the good ones? I want this so bad, it's everything I wanted it to be, but since I want Yveltal more, I'm going to have to go without it.
nightkeeper said:It also interests me that he is not part Flying, doesn't have Levitate, and can participate in a Sky Battle. Makes me wonder what criteria GameFreak will require Pokemon to meet in order to be in Sky Battles.
