Summary
A talentedPokemonfan online has shown a few different pieces of artwork, which imagine what Raichu would look like if it had Mega Evolution forms. With Mega Evolutions set to return in the upcomingPokemontitle,Legends: Z-A, fans of the series are excited about the feature all over again.
Mega Evolutions were first introduced inPokemon X and Yas a way for Pokemon to temporarily evolve in battle, giving them new types and abilities, albeit for a short period of time. This gave new life to many old favorites whose evolutionary lines were complete, with Mega Evolution forms providing a fresh take on classic designs. However, not every Pokemon received this treatment, and naturally, the fans have stepped in with plenty of designs of their own. Just recently, onePokemonfan designed Mega Evolutions for every Kalos starter, showing the kind of creativity this community is renowned for.
The Raichu Mega Evolution concepts were created by Redditor Mindrawz, showcasing what the potential X and Y variants could look like inPokemon Legends: Z-A. The designs are incredible, showing a normal and shiny version for both. With the X variant, Raichu’s Mega Evolution becomes an Electric/Fighting-type, bulkier and stronger than its previous versions. The Y variant evolves into an Electric/Fairy-type Pokemon, with a slimmer design more in line with the original Raichu. Both are extremely unique designs but would fit in perfectly with the aesthetic of the series.
