I think it will get a new ability that would nullify any beam attacks, or make any moves that it would normally resist be ineffective.

Sableye's Mega Evolution animation looks painful. The gem bursts through its chest from its back! Still awesome though!

I wonder what sort of Ability it will have? I really think it'll be something defensive based on the description.

WonderEyes legal. It would be so trolly if GF referenced those pesky pre gen V hacks by giving it WG!

Gollum? I was thinking it resembles [link=http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20091225134327/digimon/images/d/d4/Moon%3DMillenniummon_b.jpg]this guy more[/link]. I'd rather have Sableye inside the gem >_>

They gave the king of annoying a mega evolution!? If he keeps prankster people will ALWAYS have to check for Sableye. Now let's find the Metagrossite, Milotite and Beautiflite lls

I like the design, although its basic. Im going to throw my two cents in here and say I think Sableye will get a "physical" version of Bullet Proof. Not quite Wonder Guard, but useful enough. Im going to say, maybe it will nullify moves like Dragon Claw, Slash, or Tackle- moves to that effect. Moves such as Shadow Sneak and Sucker Punch would still affect it, and it will probably have a list of specific nullified moves just like BP. Watch, its gunna happen >_<

I love the look of Mega Sableye, but I can see why some people wouldn't. I can't wait to see the stats on this thing, I sure it'll make him even more trolly o.o

This actually makes a lot of sense. They did say/hint "It is said that the jewel hardens into such strength that no attack can even make a scratch!". Immunity against all scratching/slashing moves would be pretty cool!

It was strange that we had Mega Mawile and not Sableye XD
Now I'm waiting for Mega Metagross, Salamence, Johto Starters and Mega Rayquaza! XD

You mean PRIMAL RAYQUAZA
 
Design-wise, it's literally Sableye with spikier ears, red eyes, and a gem shield.

On one hand, I wish it were something a little more exciting. On the other hand, it could've been a lot worse; for example, they could've made its upper body massive while keeping the legs the same size and called it a day. That would have been pretty bad.

Gameplay-wise, I'm really not looking forward to playing against it if it retains Prankster. Prankster + buffed defenses + status + Recover =

Looks like we might get some new abilities in this game!! I'm pretty sure GF doesn't care much about competitive power, so making Mega Sableye OP is likely. Due to its description I would say maybe a new ability that makes it immune to all physical attacks. Anyways, I'm very excited to see the new stuff and new Megas!

I can't say Sableye changes much, but I like the addition of that giant gem. Makes me wonder what the stats will be for the inevitable EX and Mega EX cards. Not really surprised though, since its counterpart Mawile got a Mega evo, it only made sense to think Sableye would get one somehow.

This was how I found out about mega sableye
"Goes to tell poke friends about mega sceptile and swampert"
"Opens up ipad and goes to pokebeach.com"
"Notices there is a picture of mega sableye, immediately has a heart attack and starts cheering whilst other people at the cafe stare at me intently"

I did not expect this at all, took me by utter shock. This looks really cool, I love the new design. I wish it gets stance change, boy that will be unique but it doesn't change stance like aegislash does when it attacks or defends.

Moves like Scratch, Tackle and Slash are already nulliefied by its type…

Yeah, I know its already immune to normal type moves, but it would have a list of physical contact moves that use claws/fangs that its immune to with its new ability. Like Bullet Proof.

So mega sableye is literally just sableye holding a giant gem. There goes my dream of a mega sableye that was tall, lanky, and even more creepy :( NVM! Just watched the video. I actually really like it now lol

Looks kinda dumb. All it adds is a giant ruby and ruby eyes. I thought he had diamonds in his body aswell. I wonder if there will be different versions or something like Spinda or something.

I would like too see some crystalized Sableye. The Pokémon itself should lure people by its apparent value only to give them a nice scare, going by the saying that "not everything that glitters is gold"!
