CREEPEST SNORE!!!

>>27729537
they cant? isnt only the ones from events or that eat the meteor in the delta episode can go mega?

>>27729591
Nope, all Rayquaza can mega evolve upon capturing the Delta Episode one

You could technically have one from Emerald in your team that was taught Dragon Ascent in another save mega evolve as soon as the fight with Zinnia

No but seriously, maybe rayquaza eats the mega stone in both timelines but in RSE it simply doesn't have mega energy, and transferring him into the timeline with mega energy activates it, since its physical composition would be no different from a mega stone...?

Guess that works. And since the gane established that you essentially need a ton of energy equal to a rocket full of mega evolving Pokemon to connect realities, and Rayquaza from previous gens technically got sent from alternate worlds...

The energy of Mega Evolution itself exists even in the non-Mega timeline, which is implied by Colress's research. It's only the ability to actually Mega Evolve that hasn't been discovered.

Because bad writing.
