Mega Evolution (Shuffle)

Mega Effects are special skills in Pokémon Shuffle. These skills are activated with a combination of a Mega Stone and a certain number of icons matches for the specific Pokémon. It is only possible to have one Pokémon Mega Effect in use at any time due to only being able to have one Mega Evolution on any stage.

Each Mega Effect can either erase or replace Pokémon icons and Disruptions in the puzzle area. The kinds of tiles targeted differ depending on the effect. If the Mega Effect erases icons, each non-empty tile that is erased boosts the amount of damage dealt to the opponent. If a Mega match and at least one non-Mega match are made simultaneously and have equal priority, the Mega match will activate last.

Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Charizard X will change type from Psychic to Fighting or Fire to Dragon, respectively, upon Mega Evolving. If the player has obtained one of those Pokémon and both of their respective Mega Stones, they will have separate entries in the Pokémon list for each Mega Stone. Only one of each may be used as a support Pokémon; EXP and Skill levels are shared between them, but Mega Speedups are not.
