On Reddit, user Imozartt87 has shared their imagined concept for Mega Meganium, giving a Mega Evolution to the grassstarter ofPokemon Legends: Z-A. Their fan art is impressive, maintaining the most recognizable characteristics of Meganium while still providing enough of a change to make an interesting new form. Mega Meganium’s head tendrils have grown dramatically, while the petals around its neck have opened further, with little buds appearing on the Pokemon’s tail. The Pokemon’s neck seems to be longer, and its color has changed, becoming primarily a pale yellow with a spiral, vine-like green highlight visible on its body.

Mega Meganium Excites Pokemon Fans

Those responding to the artist’s post have been entirely positive about it, referring to the Mega Meganium design as elegant and awesome. With months remaining untilPokemon Legends: Z-Areleases, fans are eager to see what the official Mega Meganium will look like. The Mega Evolutions for Emboar and Feraligatr, the thus-far current forms for fellow starters Tepig and Totodile, have also spurred curiosity in the community.

WhilePokemonfans can look to older designs to get a general idea of howPokemon Mega Evolutionstend to change the look of those that undergo them, there’s nothing quite like seeing a talented artist share their depiction of what the Pokemon could turn into. Some have recently voiced trepidation about sharing too many fan designs, as The Pokemon Company has reportedly scrapped Pokemon in the past due to similarities discovered between an official upcoming design and prior fan work. With an endless number of fans and their artworks, though, some similarities may be unavoidable.
