What, I'm the first person from VR to see something revealed? This should not happen, people!

Anyway, yeah, Mega Sableye happened. I suppose it makes sense, considering they gave one to Mawile, right?

I was expecting it to look completely different. Maybe it'll be holding a sapphire when shiny~

I wonder, does that gem also count as a shield and therefore also raise its defense?

Mega Sableye uses the jewel as a powerful defensive tool in battle. From behind the shelter of the jewel, it can readily exploit the opponent’s weaknesses and take advantage of any openings. It is said that the jewel hardens into such strength that no attack can even make a scratch!
Its physical defense will probably be through the roof. If it gets prankster, it'll be a ridiculous wall.

Or maybe status attacks will bounce off it like Magic Bounce.

It's... Not impressive. I don't think it'll be used if it doesn't retain Prankster. I could be wrong, though. With higher defenses and it's typing, it could still be relatively threatening. Nvm then. Interesting!

Mega Mightyena with Strong Jaw nao plz!

I am very disappointed in the design.. they pretty much made its eyes red and gave it a red gem shield… It better have some mind blowing stats and a nice ability too..

To be honest I'm happy with this, not too excited about it as it defiantly isn't the greatest design out there but I will pick him up for sure.

So it's confirmed that Mega Sableye's ability is Magic Guard. Serebii states it gets an increase in Defense and Special Attack, but lowered Speed.

Edit: Magic BOUNCE. Not Guard. Forgive me for I believe I had just woken up on that day.

Odd.

Also, that sounds pretty good. Sableye had no speed to speak of without Prankster anyway, right?

Magic Guard and Magic Bounce are two different things… It has Magic Bounce.

> It is said that the jewel hardens into such strength that no attack can even make a scratch!

> Blocks non-damaging moves instead.

My bad, I meant Magic Bounce. xD I'll correct it. Many things! Dunno why I put Magic Guard knowing it was Magic Bounce. Thanks!
