Pokémon GO - Mega Evoluion

Niantic have announced a new change to Mega Evolution that is coming to Pokémon GO, live now in a soft launch in Australia and New Zealand and going global soon
Once a Pokémon has Mega Evolved for the first time using Mega Energy, it can now Mega Evolve without any further Mega Energy but with a cooldown, but the cooldown can be reduced with further Mega Energy
Mega Levels are a new feature in the game. When you Mega Evolve a Pokémon, you will gain points towards its Mega Level and whenever the Mega Level increases, the bonuses will increase. Alongside the Candy and damage bonuses currently in Mega Evolution, you will now get an Increased Chance of finding Candy XL, increased experience for catching Pokémon of the same type as the Mega Evolved Pokémon, and its rest period
We've started adding full details including the unlocks at each Mega Level in our Pokémon GO Mega Evolution section
