>Edit @ 13:42: According to an interview on Polygon, it has been stated that no Kalos Pokémon will have a Mega Evolution within Pokémon X & Y
makes sense, since megas are primarily a way to avoid cross-gen evos

Directly from the interview:

X and Y will include all Pokemon from all previous games, offering the largest selection of Pokemon in any of the series' titles. But only specific Pokemon have Mega Evolutions; older Pokemon — like Mewtwo, Lucario and the Generation One starters — will have Mega Evolutions, but Pokemon newly introduced in X and Y will not. Pokemon must be holding a special Mega Stone when they head into battle in order to utilize their Mega Evolution, which is a temporary state that ends along with the battle. But why not make these transformations permanent?

Imma add to that before the shitstorm for the last question (which is rhetorical).
>"Mega Evolution works the way it does is for a variety of reasons," Masuda explained. "Another main theme of Pokemon X and Y is evolution, and I think the concept of evolution is the defining characteristic of [the Pokemon series]. When we were developing X and Y, we were thinking about what new things we could do with this — I talked with the graphic designers and the battle designers to come up with a good idea. What we came up with was a form of evolution that would only last during battle but would also require the Pokemon to hold the Mega Stone.

I actually think it does. We already used old pokèmon, but if they introduced, say, a mega quilladin, everyone would be using it instead or regular quilladin (yeah I know I'm supposed to be talking about quilladin's evo but you get my point)

unless they made its mega different instead of overpowered, but they could spend those time and resources to make up new pogeymanz instead

I'm quite happy with this state of things, although I feel some pokèmon (namely mawile) would have needed regular evolutions

All pokémon can get Megas with spotpass updating the games as additional content. This generation could have more pokémon at the end than it has at the beginning
Generations are virtually infinite from now.
