This exact thing happened in the SWSH DLC which revealed some returning Pokemon in the Crown Tundra back when the Isle of Armor released, so this is likely a similar situation.PLA: kleavor wyrdeergen 8: morepeko indeedee runerigus mr rime sirfetch'd perrserker grapploct clobbopus toxtricity toxel thievul nickit corviknight corvisquire rookideeLGPE: melmetal meltangen 7: zeraora marshadow magearna mimikyu palossand sandygast golisopod wimpod crabominable crabrawlergen 5: genesect meloetta keldeo virizion terrakion cobalion golurk golett cryogonal amoongus foongus cofagrigus yamask sawk throh musharna muuna liepard purrloingen 4: darkrai heatran rotom porygon-z mime jr chingling staraptor staravia starly

On a related note, copy pasted straight from Reddit:In the text files for all the form data, there’s scrubbed out slots that seem to indicate new Megas. There’s coincidentally 2 slots after Raichu and before Sandshrew, and then slots fitting Heatran, Darkrai, and Zeraora. Some of them are really weird though and seem to imply secondary Megas for some existing ones unless Game Freak suddenly decide to give us stuff like Mega Wynaut or Munchlax. Anyways, here’s the list I managed to come up with. Keep in mind for the Paldea Pokémon they’re listed by index number, not National Dex number.1. 0026 - Raichu X2. 0026 - Raichu Y3. 0354 - 0358 - Banette Y?, Tropius, or Chimecho4. 0359 - 0361 - Absol Y?5. 0386 - 0411 - Deoxys, Torterra, Infernape, Empoleon, Bibarel, Staraptor, Kricketune, Luxray, Roserade, Rampardos, or Bastiodon6. 0445 - 0447 - Garchomp Y?7. 0448 - 0459 - Lucario Y?, Hippowdon, Drapion, Toxicroak, Carnivine, or Lumineon8. 0484 - 0486 - Palkia, Heatran, or Regigigas9. 0487 - 0491 - Giratina, Cresselia, Phione, Manaphy, or Darkrai10. 0618 - 0627 - Stunfisk, Mienshao, Druddigon, Golurk, Bouffalant11. 0678 - 0680 - Meowstic12. 0738 - 0740 - Vikavolt or Crabominable13. 0758 - 0772 - Shiinotic, Salazzle, Bewear, Tsareena, Comfey, Oranguru, Passimian, Golisopod, Palossand, or Pyukumuku14 - 18. 0801 - 0809 - Magearna, Marshadow, Naganadel, Stakataka, Blacephalon, Zeraora, or Melmetal19. 0889 - 0890 - Zamazenta or Eternatus20. 0934 - 0945 - Palafin, Arboliva, Scovillain, Bellibolt, Revavroom, or Orthworm21. 0946 - 0951 - Maushold, Cetitan, or Baxcalibur22 - 27. 0952 - 0959 - Tatsugiri, Cyclizar, Pawmot, Kilowattrel, or Bombirdier (I’m confused on this one as there’s 6 spots but only 5 Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution in this gap)28. 0960 - 0975 - Sqwuakabilly, Flamigo, Klawf, Garganacl, Glimmora, Grafaiai, Dachsbun, Mabosstif, or Brambleghast
>>58388674>crabominableSo we know now who's the pokemon for the second to last mega stone in pic related
>>58388680Primeape makes me wonder if Annihilape shows up, even if there aren't any Gen 9 mons listed. Also, would we get H-Qwilfish (and thus Overqwil)? We got the other variants from Galar and Alola. And it's interesting to see Wyrdeer listed but Stantler isn't
>>58388707>>58388717>>58388720>>58388725Some evolution lines are missing from their evolution lines like Stantler and Annihilape so I'm gonna keep believing that some Pokemon that're in the DLC just weren't left in the base game's data.
>>58388674is this list not counting gen 9 mons? why would makney and primape be there but not annihalape?
>>58388674>>58388680>Milotic>Golurk>GolisopodDon’t tempt me, anon. Also>Wyrdeer but no StantlerHuh?
>>58388754Whoever made this probably forgot about gender differences and regional forms, Stunfisk is already in base game with both forms for example
>>58388784*some Pokemon are missing despite their evolution lines being inI'm stupid
>>58388754Mind linking the original post?
>no HaxorusREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I DON'T WANT A REGIONAL IN GEN 10
So cross-referencing the scrubbed dex entries with the list of prepared empty slots for new forms:Banette Y or ChimechoAbsol YStaraptorGarchomp YLucario YHeatranDarkraiStunfisk or GolurkMeowsticCrabominableGolisopod or PalossandZeraoraAre the likely DLC megas?I’m not sure what to make of the form slots for Eternatus and the gen 9 mons, maybe those are leftover data from the previous switch games? Many of the gen 9 mons fitting those gaps have alternate forms or titan forms that could fill those slots
>Not even in the DLCSwellow has only appeared in BDSP now.
>>58388889>Garchomp YGod, I fucking hope so.Garchomp deserves a redemption after how badly it got fucked over.
>>58388754>22 - 27. 0952 - 0959 - Tatsugiri, Cyclizar, Pawmot, Kilowattrel, or Bombirdier (I’m confused on this one as there’s 6 spots but only 5 Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution in this gap)I'm not really sure what this is referring to, but could Tatsugiri's 3 forms be counted twice here for some reason?
>>58388830https://old.reddit.com/r/PokeLeaks/comments/1nv7k9g/rpokeleaks_discussion_megathread_october_01_2025/nj73wuh/>>58388806Good point about the forms, that might confirm Golurk and not Stunfisk, but then there’s issues like Meowstic and the gen 9 mon form data
>>58388889I find it hard to believe the DLC is going to have 4-5 "Y megas" when the base game didn't add any. I feel like we're missing something here.
>>58388950>I feel like we're missing something here.It's called "pay up, goy".
>>58388968I think selling a bunch of second megas won't get people to pay up at all.
>>58388979lollmao
>>58388950Considering the DLC is supposed to take place in an alternate universe version of Lumiose, it'd actually make perfect sense for some megas to be different from the ones in the regular universe
>>58388950>>58388979Idk, new megas for Absol, Garchomp and Lucario, especially Chomp and Lucario, really do feel like something that would sell a DLC
>>58388916Most likely the case when each form has its own id
>>58388889>Garchomp Y>Lucario YRemember when everyone thought the worst thing they could do is milk Zard again?
>>58389018Call me back when they dedicate a entire game and region to fellate garchomp and lucario and wank it as the strongest trainer pokemon of the stronger trainer ever.
>>58389008Literally everything has its own ID when it comes to GameFreak, even when it doesn't need to be the case. Spewpa has a "form" for each individual Vivillon pattern despite Spewpa itself not changing, same with Alcremies and gender differences and form changes and even Battle Bond Greninja having two forms to itself (1 being before transformation and one after)I just don't think the redditors are aware of this
>>58388754Some of these might be way off when every single form has its own index number and with how gen 3 isn't in national Dex order
>>58388772crackhead predictions, left to right, top to bottom>musharna>not sure, maaaaaybe corviknight but it already has a gmax>kecleon?>heatran>no idea>virizion? idk>rotom>no idea>no idea>crabominable>color scheme makes me think swalot, but it's probably golisopod
>>58389051>>58389061We probably need a more reputable dataminer source with more knowledge on how the forms are ID’d internally to figure out which mons really go into those slots But I’m guessing that the speculation is somewhat legit because Heatran, Darkrai and Zeraora all fit into slots in that list
>>58388674>Mega Kleavor OH SHIT, PLEASE GOD
>>58388674it took gamefreak 12 years but they finally added the three musketeers to france
>>58388674What do you mean by "blank dex entries" exactly? Is it possible these could just be transfer-only or is there something that suggests they're in the dlc specifically?
>>58388889Staraptor could also be Roserade, and Lucario could also be Hippowdon, because those are already in the Lumiose Pokédex
>>58388933>talks about amiibo collecting and then account goes inactive for a decade>suddenly pops up again as an alleged Pokemon dataminerWho is this guy and what makes him a trustworthy source?
>>58389163Yeah, I think we should for a better source or someone more reputable to back up the list of empty slots for forms before we speculate further
>>58388680>>58388754>ChimechoWe’re so back (is what I would say if I had any interest in buying the game)
>>58388725>no hydreigonthis was the greatest sin for me. I was waiting for so long to get a mega hydreigon.
>>58388674>>58389154>Got their own unique sidequest in the Crown Tundra>Got paradox versions in Scarlet and Violet>Will be in the Scarlet>Will inevitably get more in the Gen 10 Unova gameWhy do they keep getting so much spotlight? They seem pretty unremarkable to me.>>58389157Their models and other data are scrubbed from the game.
>>58389214Meant to say that they'll be in the Mega Dimensions DLC instead of "Will be in the Scarlet"
>>58388754>Golisopodpleaaaaaaaaase
>>58389214>keldeo didn't get a paradox>yfw keldeo gets a mega where it becomes a paradox-like mech
>>58388674AmongUSbros!
>>58388772>>58388754Could the bottom left stone be a Tatsugiite?
>Gamefreak goes out of their way to put her in the PLA tech demo>Nowhere to be seen in the game that actually mattersIt hurts
Mega Seviper and Zangoose would be cool.
>>58388754>MeowsticPLEASE be real>Mienshaooh god yes please>Manaphybased if tru>Salazzleimagine>Stunfisk..really..>Kilowattrelepic if real>Vikavolt another kino if true
It's inevitable
>>58388674Gen 4 & 7 are supremely cucked holy shit
>>58388754The redditor’s github about this. Doesn’t seem to count most gender differences, just regionals, gimmicks, & other special formshttps://github.com/CPokemon/plza-text/blob/main/english/common/zkn_form.txt
>>58388889>I’m not sure what to make of the form slots for Eternatus and the gen 9 mons, maybe those are leftover data from the previous switch games? Many of the gen 9 mons fitting those gaps have alternate forms or titan forms that could fill those slotsLikely when these are the same devs that kept literally unused items from gen 4 in future gens code for way too long
>>58388674Knowing SWSH and SV, these lists are partially incomplete. There could still be more. Plus there may be Megas for mons in the base game like Charizard Z or the fossils.
>>58389465I think >>58388736 is probably the biggest indicator of that. Feels weird for these mons to appear in the game but not be usable, and I know that's happened in the past>>bellossombut now with DLC and the fact that Thievul is most likely a DLC mon, it seems like those guys are fair game. Would be funny if both Zigzagoon lines are in and Hoenn Linoone ends up with a mega.
>>58389419>Mega Naganadel, Stakataka and Blacephalon>Mega Melmetal>Mega EternatusSurely there must be some mistake
>>58389419The redditor also made their own predictions based on the missing Pokédex slots
Feels strange to me that almost nothing on that list seems to match the colors of the mega stones from the trailer aside from Tatsugiri matching one of them. Very few megas get drastic color changes either.
>>58389658Crabominable is literally an exact match, it was pretty much the only one we knew for absolute sure based on the mega stones
I'll never be able to use all my previous teams entirely in a new fucking game
>>58389678Oh yeah, him too. I stand by my point that most of them don't seem vaguely close to any stone though.
Mega Titans?
>>58388754some seem too convenient considering the poster didn't know certain ones would actually be in (Chimecho, Staraptor, Hippowdon, Golurk, Crabominable, Golisopod)
>>58388754>MagearnaI got so excited before realizing this set is just referring to Zeroara. It'd be cool to have Diancie's metal counterpart also able to mega evolve (and just do anything meaningful in general)
>>58388754why weren't they brave enough to suspect Mega Wynaut or Snorunt instead of Absol Y.
Does anyone have the entries for the pokemon?
>>58389844fuck klawf needs literally anything
>>58388754>Possible Mega RampardosGsmefreak…my life would be yours
>>58388680WigglyPersianCrobatMiloticKecleonPorygonZRotomCryogonalCrabominableGolisopodPalossandThievulOne gen 9That's my bingo card for the megas
>>58388892Raticate only in lgpe
>>58389214They get this much spotlight to compensate for the gen 10 unova game that isn't happening
>>58389214>FilenameIf that doesn't happen in the DLC it seals that Terrakion will permanently be deformed.
Seems like dataminers on Chinese social media already datamined out the 15 new Megas for the DLC.Raichu x2, Chimecho, Absol, Staraptor, Garchomp, Lucario, Golurk, Meowstic, Crabominable, Golisopod, Magearna, Scovillain, Glimmora, Tatsugiri, Baxcalibur.
>>58391798>scovillainplease be real I need to see the Palafin and Scovillain shitposting get a new spark of life
>>58389051>Spewpa has a "form" for each individual Vivillon pattern despite Spewpa itself not changingThat makes sense.
>>58391798>Scovillain getting a Mega instead of an evolutionGOD FUCKINGYes a Mega will be fine too, but I'm not fucking trusting GF to solve its Gen 3 stat spread after seeing the newer Megas' stats.
>>58388736No different to an Elephant being shown on a poster in New York anon.It's called world building.
>>58391798If that's all then it's a fucking shit mega list. Not that I mind if there are new megas for Pokemon that already got some but I'll be disappointed that mons like Kleavor and the other Johto/Unova starters will have to wait another decade for another chance.
>>58391798>Garchomp got 2 megas before flygon even got 1Kek
>>58388779Gen 9 isn't listed here because the code is messed up: we know they're in there, we just don't know how many/which ones
>>58391956to be fair serp doesnt really need a mega contrary renders it rather immune to power creeptyph and samu yes but not serp
D-does this mean Slowking won’t get a mega!? Why would they give Lucario and Garchomp another mega? They could’ve given it to other Pokemon who need it
>>58391798So Zeraora, Heatran and Darkrai are deconfirmed or?
>>58392030I could see them being online battle rewards for the next seasons after the Kalos starters
>>58392030No, they're not deconfirmed yet.
>>58391798What's the source for this? Is Garchomp really going to get another mega?
