Mega Slowbro is officially the funniest thing I've ever seen.

HALP.

Mega Slowbro has the Ability Shell Armour, and Mega Audino has Healer, and is now Normal/Fairy.

Edit: Literally ninja'd by a second.

That design for Slowbro looks functionally stupid.

Mega Audino's real ability is getting you 4 levels guaranteed when you beat one.

Mega Audino looks awful frankly.

Mega Slowbro is so derpy that I love it though.

Mega Audino gets changed into a type that has more weaknesses and only gets healer as its ability?
It's gonna need some huge stat boosts else it's going to be our newest worst mega

I just realized we got our first 5th Gen Mega Evolution.

Why is it Audino of all things?

Well it at least gets more STAB.
But having two new weaknesses isn't that big a deal is it? Especially seeing as it loses its weakness to fighting.
It will also resist more moves now.

Robin was like that cool uncle that you never physically met but loved regardless. Such a terrible way for such a great man to go out.

I REALLY don't feel like being sad anymore though.

Looking at the differences in weaknesses it doesn't seem like that big of a trade off gaining Fairy as a secondary type.

Seeing how Mega Audino is holding that....cord/tendril of it makes me think of how a Doctor/Nurse would hold a stethoscope. Given its ability and coloring that makes sense

And I love it.

I love 5th Gen, so this is a really big dissapointment for me, they could have chosen Krookodile, Hydreigon, Gigalith, Scolipede, or even Crustle, but nope, they chose the EXP punching bag.

And Slowbro... meh, it's one of my favorite Pokémon, but it looks ridiculous, and not in the good way. I love how oblivious and absolutely braindead he looks originally, but here he just looks uncomfortable sitting in his spinning top, it took the charm away from him.

The OR/AS Megas are thus far pretty mediocre imo, I like the starters and Sableye, and I also like Primal Groudon and Kyogre, but aside from that the rest just don't really work that well imo.

I like the megAs cut Audino looks like eaichi. Hoping it gets a stat boost that is hide. As for slowbro it is most likely defense and special defense only.

To be fair...

A lot of the Mega Evolutions do look better in motion.

I thought Mega Gengar looked stupid until I saw him move.

Then he was pretty cool.

True should be interesting to hear pokemon company's thoughts on this slip up. Anyway can't wait to use my shiny slowbro for this.

Both Mega Audino and Mega Slowbro are awesome in their own way. Kudos to whoever came up with Mega Slowbro's design in particular.

I don't know who Robin Williams is, but my condolences.

Still waiting for Mega Lapras and Mega Donphan.

Wait a second. Those Megas are real? 0_0

I thought you guys were joking around. >.>

Anyway, Mega Audino is cute. Might use Mega Slowbro might not. Slowbro was pretty awesome on my team by itself.

Of the info. we have now, Mega Audino looks like it's gonna be the worst Mega Evolution up to now, at least in terms of usability. It has an ability that's useless in Single Battles, it doesn't have many good resistances outside of Dragon immunity, it lacks a consistent recovery move outside of Wish, and I don't see many moves that it can utilise well that other pokemon don't already do.

Mega Slowbro, your inevitable death by your own shell is more entertaining than a Mega Audino.

Mega Slowbro would've been better with Regenerator, but then you would get MegaFunbro. Normal Funbro is already impossible to beat:

Well, looking at everything, I think trying to force Audino into single battles is bad. However, depending on the circumstances, it could actually be a great double battle Pokémon. We just need a few more moves, (a recovery move mainly) and probably some more defenses on both side.

Mega Audino might actually be an amazing cleric in double battles seeing how it learns heal bell through breeding. It's actually kinda cool if they do this right.

So, new megas, a fifth gen mega, and it's not Golurk, Bisharp or Zoroark. I am disappoint.
