Pokemon X and Y news: Kanto Starters have Mega Evolutions!

On the Pokemon Youtube channel we learned something big with Pokemon X & Y.  In the video entitled "Get excited for Pokemon X and Pokemon Y"  We learned that not only will the original Kanto starters, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle be obtainable in the new games but that they will also have Mega Evolutions! 

Mega Venusaur!

 Mega Venusaur has an increase in defense stat and special defense stat.  It also gains the ability "Thick Fat" meaning it halves the power of both ice and fire type moves.

Mega Charizard!

Mega Charizard gains a significant growth in the special attack stat and gains the ability of "Drought."  Drought will give Charizard an increase in fire attacks and also decreases the attacks of water moves.

Mega Blastoise!

Mega Blastoise gains a new ability called "Mega Launcher" which increases the power of pulse moves such as water pulse and dark pulse.
