Mega Slowbro!


Hello my lovelies!

Today I'm going to be doing a quick blog post about Mega Slowbro from Pokemon which was recently announced.


The Korean Pokemon website accidentally released images of Slowbros Mega Evolution and deleted it shortly after, however this did not stop it from spreading across the internet. As you can imagine, it caused a bit of an uproar due to its strange appearance. Some loved it, some hated it. Compared to Slowbros normal form, it is easy to say that during the M-E transformation, the shell on his tail engulfs the rest of his body - Kind of disturbing.







Slowbro remains a dual-type Pokemon (Water/Psychic) even when he is in his mega-evolution form - which actually sparked a lot of questions, considering the majority of mega-evolutioned Pokemon received a change in type. However, Mega-Slowbro will get a Defense and Special Att increase - which I believe is not that forgiving, considering Slowbros speed is his lowest stat - understandably, but even a small Speed increase would have made him a lot more useful in the battlefield. 


What sparked the most controversy was the official footage of Mega-Slowbro - that was later released and shown at the 2014 Pokémon World Championships - As he wobbles and spins a lot (I don't know about you, but this made me feel really nervous due to the fact that he looks mentally decapitated). Infact, Pokefans across the world are calling it Nintendos cruellest Pokemon to date - that's a pretty hefty title.

You can watch the trailer here - 
Are you excited about Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire? Let me know in the comments!

I'm sorry this was a short post, but thanks for reading!
