Re: Ash Possibly Getting a Mega Ring (Possible Proof, Thoughts + Usage in the Series
I sort of disagree, because mega evolution shouldn't be about what is the most likely Pokemon, it should be what should happen at random chance in terms of mega stone.
Sceptile in my opinion seems more likely because Ash getting Sceptilite(?) is more likely than Ash randomly getting his hands on a Charizardite. Because there are QUITE a few trainers with Mega Charizard, that maybe there shouldn't even be any more Charizardite except maybe for the Y variation of the mega stone.
I just think that unless it's Professor Oak that gives Ash a mega stone, no random person is going to magically show up with a Charizard Mega Stone as if they have clairvoyant abilities. Ash casually mentioning he has a Sceptile would be more likely given the likely episode revolving around mega evolution if its ORAS related. Only reason Ash would mention his Charizard is because of Trevor and since Trevor has a Charmander is probably another reason why Ash getting Mega Sceptile is far more likely, especially if Shauna, Tierno and Trevor show up with their mega evolved forms of their Pokemon.
And even if the writers WOULD give Ash Mega Charizard, it doesn't make much sense, logically speaking given everything that's going on. I feel like if anything Ash not having any mega evolution is probably technically the most likely, simply because they don't care for Ash as a character, but if he did, either it's going to be Sceptile, simply due to the fact of ORAS, or maybe some Kalos Pokemon will get a Mega Evolution, and therefore Ash will get THAT variety of mega evolution. Charizard really doesn't seem all that likely to me. Unless the Charizard appearance in Best Wishes was foreshadowing, but Charizard definitely is far more likely than Heracross. I just think Sceptile is especially likely given that it's the only other fully evolved starter Ash has that CAN mega evolve.
I'd say there's a good chance that if he's getting any Mega Evolution, it'd be Charizard X. Mega Evolution is all about popularity and fanservice, and the most popular Pokemon Ash owns is Charizard. On top of that, it's more Kanto nostalgia. Now why Charizard X and not Charizard Y? For one, there's Fletchinder, it has the exact same type combination as Charizard, and while they have been known to repeat types from time to time, I don't think they'd go as far as having the exact same dual type combination. By using Charizard X, they can show off its Dragon typing a little more, maybe have it learn Dragon Claw or something. Secondly, it's the more popular of the two Mega Charizards, so of course that's the one they're going to show off. I suppose he could get Mega Sceptile for ORAS references, but I don't think he'd be quite as marketable as Charizard X.
Basically, I think there's maybe a 60% chance that he'll get Charizard X, 30% chance that he'll get nothing, and 10% chance he'll get Mega Sceptile.
