10 Pokémon Who Deserve Mega Evolutions

3. Skarmory

Skarmory has one of the coolest designs in Pokémon, one which, like Aegislash, should fit in perfectly with the medieval, knights of olde feel that Galar has offered up so far. When it already looks this good, you just know that if it ever got a Mega, it could dethrone Shiny Mega Gengar or Mega Charizard X as the best Mega going.

Despite most trainers agreeing that its sleek yet sharp look is one of the best out there, it doesn't really get a lot of love. Steel remains fairly unpopular, as does Flying, and together these combine to leave Skarmory with nowhere to go.

Its relatively rare and its stats aren't particularly worth the effort. Aside from the various Flying Legendaries, many Dragon types are dual Flying, while Steel has Metagross and Lucario in its ranks.

It's good without being great, and with so many to choose from these days, that's simply not enough.

Skarmory seemed like it had been set up to join the fan favourite ranks, but its slowly slipped into obscurity. A Mega would definitely give it a much needed boost, and give trainers a cool new design in the games too.
