Mega evolutions only require a basic pokemon

Yes, you can play a mega evolution off of a basic

Mega Lucario can be played right off of Riolu. Makes no sense because balancing isn't a thing, but hey, let's go nuts here right?

Early iterations of the mega evolution cards required a fully evolved pokemon in play to mega evolve, but lets just skip that step

It's crazy!

I still have the good ol' Spirit Link cards you needed to Mega Evolve your Exes!

And it's crazy how they think giving us three Prize Cards when knocking one out makes it ok that we can just Rare Candy a Charmander and get an overpowered Charizard X. It's Dark Charizard all over again! (I have beef with that card!)

I have seen Mega Gardevoir

Mega Gardevoir is going to break things simply by using overflowing wishes alongside Gardevoir EX's psychic embrace

then hit with Mega Symphonia to nuke any opposing pokemon regardless of their strength

Combine it with Gardevoir ex and Electric Mewtwo ex and a few Xatus and game over.

A lot of them are also getting a lot of support to help them evolve faster or do more damage. Forest of Vitality being amongst the worst. I think they're trying to power rap to reset the meta from the scarlet and violet era.

but remember that before you must to evolve it from a basic pokemon too (its evolved but its EX so it works like one)

its strange but thats why you take 3 prize cards (apart that some megaevolutions like abomasnow can destroy a lot of pokemon they alone)
