The Pokémon Company International has revealed details on the powerful Mega-Evolved forms of Steelix and Glalie in Pokémon Omega Ruby andPokémon Alpha Sapphire.

Steelix, the Steel- and Ground-type Pokémon who evolves from Onyx, can Mega Evolve into Mega Steelix, which raises its Defense stat greatly and gives it the Steel-type move, Iron Tail. Iron Tail is most destructive during a sandstorm, thanks to its Sand Force Ability, which increases the power of Rock-, Ground-, and Steel-type moves by 30% during the sandstorm weather condition.

Glalie, the Ice-type Pokémon, can Mega Evolve into Mega Glalie, raising its Speed and significantly raising its Attack and Special Attack. Upon Mega Evolving, it gains the Ability, Refrigerate, which makes Normal-type moves into Ice-type moves. It also gains the Ice-type move, Sheer Cold, which can knock a target out in one blow!

Trainers with the Special Demo Version of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire can catch Glalie and transfer them to the official launch version on November 21st using Pokémon Link.
