Classic Starters in Pokemon X and Y, plus mega-evolutions?!



I just wanted to make a quick update for any of those keeping an eye on Pokemon X and Y and it was just recently announced that the original starters Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle from Pokemon Red, blue, and green way back in 1998; Will now be able to also be chosen as starters from the very beginning of your adventure. I'm not of how it would work in terms of it may being a promotional giveaway when players subscribe to the new Pokemon Bank system which allows players to store 3,000 Pokemon on the internet, at the cost of a annual payment fee. But not only that the classic starters have all been given mega-evolutionary forms as predicted from shots of CoroCoro magazine. For many long time old fans this will be a walk down memory lane with a slight twist, that may or may not be so good I'll let you decide on that.
Mega Venusaur taking on a new ability of thick fat, giving an defense and special defense advantage over its fire and ice weakness by 50%, also in this mega form its defense and special attack raise even higher making it the good old reliable balanced Pokemon.

Mega Charizard takes on the ability of drought changing weather conditions and powering up Mega Charizard fire type moves, but also in this form its special attack increases and with the design of this new form still seems to be the badass of the Kanto starters.

Mega Blastoise takes on a completely new ability that is introduced in the 6th generation called mega launcher, a unique ability that boosts the power of 'Pulse' type moves, such as water pulse and dark pulse. And obviously Blastoise defense and special defense increase in this form. The design of this form isn't one that appeals to me very well, but what do you think?
