Summary
Pokemon GOis teasing the debut of Mega Heracross for April 13. Mega Evolutions have been a part of thePokemonfranchise sincePokemon X and Ywere released in 2013. The concept eventually made its way toPokemon GO, with most Mega Evolutions readily available in the augmented reality mobile game.
Pokemon GOMega Evolutions work a bit differently than in the main series games. Players can Mega Evolve their Pokemon inPokemon GOusing Mega Energy, which is earned by winningMega Raid Battles, walking with specific Buddy Pokemon, and completing certain quests. Mega Evolutions inPokemon GOtypically last for about eight hours and give Pokemon a significant boost in battle. While it may take a lot of resources, Mega Evolving is worth it forPokemon GOplayers that need a boost in a fight.
While thevast majority of Mega Evolutionsare available inPokemon GOalready, some still have yet to make their debut. There 10 Mega Evolutions missing inPokemon GOat the time of this writing, but that will change when Mega Heracross is added to the game on April 13. While it wasn’t explicitly stated by Niantic that Mega Heracross would be coming toPokemon GOon April 13, the developer released a teaser video that is certainly pointing in that direction.
Mega Evolutions Still Missing from Pokemon GO
Once Mega Heracross is added toPokemon GO, there will still be nine Mega Evolutions that need to make their debut. The Mega Evolutions still missing fromPokemon GOare Mega Audino, Mega Camerupt, Mega Gallade, Mega Lucario, Mega Mawile, Mega Metagross, Mega Mewtwo X,Mega Mewtwo Y, and Mega Sharpedo. It’s unclear why Niantic has yet to added these Mega Evolutions toPokemon GO, but hopefully they will come to the game sooner rather than later.
While fans wait for the debut of more Mega Evolutions inPokemon GO, they can participate in the World of Wonders season. Theongoing season is focused on Ultra Beasts, but is host to all kinds of other specially-themed events for fans to enjoy.
