At the beginning of this month, Pokémon Developer Game Freak Suffered a massive data leak Since then, details and assets about new and old projects have been circulating online. These ranges include Unused Pokémon that have never seen the light of dayarrive Information about upcoming competitions Just like next year Pokémon Legends: ZA. Amidst all this, one detail that has emerged is concept art of an unused form of one of the most controversial Pokémon in Original 151. Super evolution formed in Pokémon and yes.
In the leaked art, Mega Jynx bears some resemblance to her base form, a purple humanoid wearing a red dress and having long blond hair. Mega Evolution concept art shows a wardrobe change into a blue dress with what looks like snow or glitter on the fabric. Instead of hanging straight down her sides, her hair looked more disheveled and curly, reaching down to the ground and trailing across the floor. Jynx’s eyes also looked a little creepy in the concept, turning into something dark and almost hollow. Mega evolution sometimes includes type changes, such as Charizard changing it from Fire/Flying to Fire/Dragon. My knee-jerk assumption was that this shift might change Jynx from a typical ice/psionic type to an ice/dark type, but leaks say Mega Jynx will have Keep typing the same way.
Despite gaining baby form in Smoochum Pokémon Gold and silverJynx hasn’t gotten much love since then. And Electabuzz and Magmar, the other two Pokémon from the first generation, in some ways Pokémon Circle, considered part of the trio with Jynx – got a pre-evolution in the same generation and a new evolution in generation four, with Jynx not getting the same attention. Part of the reason may be because of Jynx is a controversial Pokémon in the late 90s and early 2000s. The original design was criticized for its skin color and exaggerated facial features that recalled harmful stereotypes of black people in minstrel shows and other racist depictions. This resulted in Pokémon being redesigned with purple skins and some early episodes of the anime being cancelled. So maybe Game Freak is just anxious to get her back in the spotlight.
The Game Freak leak unfortunately put the personal information of several employees at risk, but it gave fans an unprecedented look at what goes on behind the scenes of the game. Pokémondevelopment. However, some revelations are harder to swallow than others, e.g. So-called space folklore stories Featuring Pokémon like Typhlosion doing questionable things.
