10 Pokémon Who Deserve Mega Evolutions

1. Flygon

Poor Flygon. While a lot of these Pokémon deserve Megas because they’ve been left behind one way or another, Flygon has suffered the most. It doesn’t just deserve a Mega Evolution; it’s owed one.

You’ll find no shortage of people who love Flygon just the way it is, or think it has one of the best designs out there. Unfortunately though, it’s suffering from success on this front, and its perfect design may have cost it a Mega it really should have by now.

Back when Megas were initially conceived, Flygon was one of the ‘mons right at the top of the list. As a huge fan favourite, it made sense to pay tribute to its popularity this way. Unfortunately, artist’s block struck and a Mega Flygon never materialised.

More iconic creatures like the Kanto starters were shoe ins while forgotten ones like Mawile and Sableye needed a boost; Flygon was stuck in the middle.

It was powerful but not colossal, popular but not marketable, and well designed without a distinctive feature to exaggerate.

The lack of a Mega means the already niche pick is even less viable for serious players, and while it remains a cult figure to some, its popularity is fading.
