Ill never see megaevolution in the same way

… This isn’t as new as people seem to think it is. Mega Lucario has always been relentless and brutal. Mega Glalie has always had a broken jaw. It was only in supplementary materials and stuff, so it was hard to find and relatively unknown, but the dangers of Mega Evolution have always been around.

AND THAT’S THE THING. That’s where the ‘love and trust’ from X and Y comes in.

Because Mega Evolution is psychotically dangerous for a lot of Pokemon. So they need a skilled trainer that they trust to see them safely through it. Because that love and trust lets them stay in control of themselves

Because if they have that, they can rise to ever higher heights. They can get closer to being the best. Because Pokemon are competitive by nature, and most of them want to be the strongest. To be a master, right?

If you Mega Evolve your Pokemon, you’re not being cruel to your Pokemon and forcing them through terrible pain for more power. You and your Pokemon are, together, making the decision to do something dangerous, because you trust each other to make it through safely, because you trust each other to make use of this terrifying power and come out on top.

Mega Evolution is scary as hell, but it’s not evil unless you make it so.

This.

Remember what happened to Korrina’s Lucario after it gained it’s Mega Evolution in the Anime?  

And how Korrina had to painstakingly bond with it again, despite being years soulmates with it?

I do.

I wonder if all pokemon go berserk like this when they mega evolve for the first time…
