For the longest time, it seemed like the Mega Evolution feature from Generation 6 of Pokemon would never be seen in the franchise again. Many old Pokemon from the series received temporary new forms with great stats and interesting design choices, but this battle feature did not make a return in the Generation 7 games. This old mechanic is coming back, though, as the developers have announced that Pokemon Legends Z-A will be taking place in the Kalos region and that Mega Evolution will be making a return.
