Greetings Trainers!
GameXplain's own Pokémon Professor is back once again to help you on your quest through
Kalos.
This time we'll be taking a look at Mega Stones.
Specifically where to find each one and exactly how they power up each Pokémon.
So let's leave no stone unturned as we discover every possible Mega Evolution in Pokémon
X & Y.
Of course, the first you come across is one of the simplest to get.
Once you pick which of the original Kanto starters you want, Professor Sycamore will
also hand over that Pokémon's Mega Stone.
That means you can get Venusaurite, Blastoisinite, or Charizardite X or Y depending on your version
of choice.
However, it's also possible to get the other stones in the game as well.
Travel to the Stone Emporium on Vernal Avenue and speak with the old man near the back.
He will offer you the other three stones as you purchase each one.
You'll notice that his asking price is incredibly expensive though.
Luckily, there is a way to bring the cost down.
Like everything else in Lumiose City, you do it by becoming more popular.
Do all the activities in the city to increase your popularity but the three that increase
it the quickest are chatting with Alexa at the Lumiose Press, doing part-time work at
Hotel Richissime, and eating at the four different battle restaurants.
Using these methods, you can get his asking price all the way down to 10,000 Poké Dollars
for a much better deal.
Or you can be like me and just buy them much earlier because you have way too much cash.
The next Mega Stone you can find is in Ambrette Town.
After you take care of the problem in the Glittering Cave, speak to one of the scientists
on the right side of the Fossil Lab.
He will give you Aerodactylite.
Lucarionite is also impossible to miss since the Lucario you obtain at the Tower of Mastery
is holding one.
Ampharosite is a little off the beaten path, but easy to find if you decide to visit Azure
Bay.
Simply speak to the man on the first island you see, and he'll give you the Mega Stone.
To receive Gengarite, simply speak to the Hex Girl in Laverre City.
She's northwest of the city's well in front of two small homes.
After rescuing the Abomasnow from Team Flare in the Frost Cavern, speak to it to obtain
the final Mega Stone that can be found before defeating the Elite Four, Abomasite.
Once you defeat the main game, the rest of the Mega Stones will become available to you.
However, a few necessary steps need to be done before a majority of them can be found.
Go to Kiloude City and compete in at least one round of the Battle Maison.
Once you exit, head to the northern point of the city to find your rival waiting.
After defeating him or her one more time, you'll receive Absolite.
Your rival will also instruct you to visit Professor Sycamore in Anistar City.
The good professor will share some of the discoveries he's made about Mega Stones and
helps you upgrade the Mega Ring.
Now, between the hours of 8PM and 9PM, you can search the world for special glowing points
that house undiscovered Mega Stones.
But before you do that; head to Lumiose City and enter the café where you first met Diantha.
She will be waiting for you and offer to trade a Ralts for any of your Pokémon.
Make the trade and check the Ralts' held item.
There you'll find Gardevoirite.
When the hits 8PM, or you change your 3DS's internal clock, you can begin the Mega Stone
hunt.
One is all the way back in Santalune Forest.
Simply enter from Route 2 and walk straight into the grass.
You'll see the sparkles indicating a Mega Stone.
But this can be one of two stones.
If you're playing Pokémon X, it's Pinsirite.
If you're playing Pokémon Y, it's Heracronite.
The next Mega Stone can be found by making your way to Route 22.
Go to the river and ride the waterfall down.
Head right to find a small cave called the Chamber of Emptiness.
At the back of the cave is Banettite.
Next go to Camphrier Town and enter the Shaboneau Castle.
Take the stairs on your left and you'll find Mawilite in the next room.
Kangaskhanite can be found in the Glittering Cave.
Simply take the first right you come across and follow it to the end.
Interestingly, Cyllage City's Gym holds the next Mega Stone.
To find it, climb the wall on the right side then climb the next section on the right.
The dead end there will either contain Tyranitarite if it's Pokémon X or Aggronite if it's Pokémon
Y.
Next head to Reflection Cave and find the room that contained TM74.
It was in the area that had the entrance reflected in the mirrors.
Once you reach the room, continue south then go left to find Alakazite in the middle of
a circle of light.
You can find Medichamite in Laverre City.
It's right in front of the well.
On Route 16, head south to where you can see two skaters traveling in circles.
Go in the nearby alcove to find another Mega Stone.
If you're playing Pokémon X it will be Manectite, and if you're playing Pokémon Y it'll be
Houndoominite.
Go back to the Frost Cavern and return to the room with the Abomasnow.
Hidden behind him is Scizorite.
Couriway Town holds the next Mega Stone.
Travel up to the town's hotel and look around the area with several miniature waterfalls
to find Gyaradosite.
The last Mega Stone is found on Victory Road.
Travel up to the area where the Pokémon Ranger that heals you stands.
It's the same place you had a battle with your rival.
Go left to the stone wall and use Rock Smash to break it down.
Garchompite lies in front of the ruin.
But of course the ultimate prize is still waiting to be found.
Go to the Pokémon Village and make your way to the small cave in the upper left corner.
The man that was blocking it is now gone allowing you to enter the Unknown Cave.
Inside is Mewtwo.
Battle and catch it and where it once stood will be the final Mega Stone, either Mewtwonite
X or Y depending on the version you're playing.
There is one more of course for those of you who took advantage of the Torchic giveaway
that came with the game.
You already have the Mega Stone, but just what kind of boost does Blaziken get when
it Mega Evolves?
Well, take a look.
And that's how you find all of the Mega Stones as well as what kind of stat changes you can
expect with each Mega Evolution.
Find your favorite and take your team to the next level.
Thanks for watching and make sure to keep an eye on GameXplain for more on Pokémon
and other things gaming too.
