Chikorita’s Final Evolution May Get a Regional Twist

It appears that Meganium, Chikorita‘s final evolution, might receive the regional form treatment similar to Typhlosion in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. This could mean that Meganium will no longer be a pure Grass type and may become a Grass and Fairy type instead, just like how Typhlosion transformed from a Fire-type to a Fire and Ghost type. Although Game Freak and Nintendo have not officially confirmed or revealed this change, some dedicated Pokemon fans have noticed subtle hints suggesting this possibility.

After the release of the trailer for Pokemon Legends: Z-A earlier this week, dedicated Pokemon enthusiasts have been meticulously analyzing every frame to gather as much detail and possible insights. In their scrutiny, one fan discovered that Chikorita, one of the starters in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, possesses Fairy type moves at its lower evolutions – a novelty. This observation suggests that the final form may well be a combination of Grass and Fairy types.

While it’s not absolute confirmation, the evidence from the screenshot suggests that Meganium could possibly evolve into Typhlosion in Pokemon Legends: Z-A and acquire a new regional final evolution. However, this theory becomes even more intriguing.

The original post’s comment section contains an old leak and a proposed new design for Meganium. Remarkably, the suggested design (visible here) seems to strongly resemble its potential new final form.

In summary, consider the following information as mere speculation based on an older leak, since neither Game Freak nor Nintendo have yet to respond. While there are several factors suggesting that this may not alter, should anything change, we’ll promptly update you on further developments.

This year, it’s expected that Pokemon Legends: Z-A will be released towards the end. You can find updates on this upcoming Pokemon game, including news, rumors, leaks, and speculations by clicking here.
