A Key Stone (Japanese: キーストーン Key Stone) is a Key Item introduced in Generation VI, which is used to allow a Pokémon holding a Mega Stone to Mega Evolve. Starting from Generation VIII, it is unobtainable.
When the Key Stone is activated, the Pokémon's corresponding Mega Stone reacts to it, starting the Mega Evolution process. Trainers often keep their Key Stone inside a personal accessory, such as a Mega Ring, Mega Bracelet, Z-Ring, or Z-Power Ring, though there are exceptions to this.
In the core series games
Player characters
Pokémon X and Y
- Main article: Mega Ring
In Pokémon X and Y, the player characters hold their Key Stones in a Mega Ring, a large black bracelet that Calem and Serena wear on their left wrist.
The possession of one Mega Ring is offered to the player and each of their friends, who have to pick the most deserving out of their group. The selection is quickly whittled down to two people: the player and Serena or Calem (depending on the gender of the player). Upon defeating their rival, the player must obtain the Rumble Badge at the Shalour Gym and then go to the top of the Tower of Mastery to receive the ring from Korrina.
After the player has beaten their rival in Kiloude City, Professor Sycamore will upgrade their Mega Ring at the Anistar Sundial by having the player touch the sundial. Once upgraded, the player can then find hidden Mega Stones around Kalos from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

Trivia
- The Key Stone items used by NPCs exist within the data of Pokémon X and Y and Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. They have a sprite (a white question mark), but cannot be obtained in normal gameplay. They were programmed into the game because if not, NPCs wouldn't be able to Mega Evolve their Pokémon.
- In Generation VI, before battle with a non-player character that can use Mega Evolution, the Key Stone accessory is often shown off. For Trainers that use VS sprites (such as Korrina and Diantha), often the Key Stone is clearly visible in the zoomed-in VS sprite. For Trainers that use 3D models (such as Lysandre and Zinnia), the camera often starts by focusing on the Key Stone before zooming out to show the full body. Some Trainers, such as Calem/Serena and Brendan/May, have the Key Stone accessory visible on their 3D model, but it is not focused on. However, other Trainers, such as Courtney, Matt and the Hoenn Elite Four, do not have visible Key Stones at all. Secret Base Trainers have no visible indication of possessing a Key Stone.
