This, X/Y and Halo 2 are making me want to buy those consoles just for these three games.

From serebii:
"Further details have been revealed about the Pokémon, Mega Sableye. It is confirmed that Mega Sableye retains its Dark/Ghost-type, but rather than keep any of the abilities, it gets the ability Magic Bounce. It has increased Defense and Special Attack stats, but decreased Speed. During battle, Mega Sableye shelters itself behind the jewel, from where it can take advantage of any openings its target leaves exposed."
Tank much

Tbh I don't think too many people will use it as their mega. While Magic Bounce is good, Sableye's main use was for Prankster.

Sableye is pretty formidable. He starts of with prankster as he goes in the match and people might think he will mega evolve and wont burn him. Taking this chance he can throw in a status move and then mega evolve the next turn as a tank that probs stalls.

Yeah but then you have to split his moveslots in two.

There goes all of my excitement for Mega Sableye.

Magic Bounce. Special attack increase instead of special defense. Really. Three things it doesn't need. Unless that defense boost is huge (which is absolutely irrelevant due to Prankster Will-O-Wisp), this will be the least used Mega only after Banette.

Increased defense? As if it needs it after a WoW. 252 Atk Choice Band burned Dragonite Outrage vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Sableye: 130-153 (42.7 - 50.3%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery

Magic Bounce? Prankster Taunt (which is retained after Sableye leaves the field and creates set-up opportunities).

Special attack? lol dat HP and speed tho

There are better Magic Bouncers, like Espeon and M.Absol, who are much faster and don't die to a single special attack before getting a hit off. Sableye doesn't even need Magic Bounce. Sableye's offensive movepool is **** and it doesn't and shouldn't take an offensive role, ever. Once it loses Prankster, its only niche in the whole OU metagame is completely lost and it's open to be rendered useless with any relatively strong special attack. Not to mention there are much better Megas for use in any role it feels like playing.

Unless both of those stats are raised to 150+ to compensate for lack of Life Orb and Leftovers respectively on whatever role it wants to take, there are better options. The only saving grace is if Serebii made a typo or derped out and typed special attack instead of special defense.
