Megastones Third Wave Guide (Draft in Process!)

[Bhimoso]

Welcome to the Megastones Quest Guide: Wave 3!

 

Welcome, everyone! As the last and final third wave was just released, we finally have the last remaining Megaevolutions to obtain! This guide will be completed with the community’s additions, like the other two guides (basically everyone does the job and I just sit with my fat belly and my half eaten pizza in my sofa while I write this). I will be editing this thread continuously as new details about the megaevolution quests are revealed.

 

Are you ready? Let’s begin!

 

Third Wave Megaevolutions

Mega Aerodactyl

Mega Alakazam

Mega Camerupt

Mega Manectric

Mega Mawile

Mega Metagross

Mega Medicham

Mega Pidgeot

Mega Pinsir

Mega Sableye

Mega Salamance

Mega Slowbro

Mega Tyranitar
Mega Sharpedo

Mega Kangaskhan (?)

Mega Lucario (?)

 

Mega Aerodactyl

 

Aerodactyl's Megastone can be bought in Historical Site in Excavations for 1000 Artifact Pieces (semi confirmed).

 

Mega Alakazam

 

Mega Alakazam’s quest can be started in Veilstone City's Casino.

You will need a pokemon with 31 IV in Speed in your party and some Kelpsy Berries. You can find Kelpsy Berries in Viridian Maze or Safari EV Wald. Now talk to the Casino Owner. Talk to the Abra multiple times until he teleports and flees. Talk again to the Casino Owner. You will need to travel a LOT, so be ready.
You must now visit Mt Coronet Summit. Talk to the Meditating Alakazam and give him a Kelpsy Berry. You need to choose that you want to battle him.
BIG WARNING: THIS ALAKAZAM DID NOT SKIP LEG DAY. He is VERY fast, hits hard AND TANKS HITS LIKE A TRUCK. HE IS A SPECIAL FIGHT. BRUTE FORCE WILL NOT HELP HERE. A PvP Mimikyu Shadow Claw only does 10% to it, when it would normally do over 10 times that damage. 

To cheese this fight, use two Rattata with Endeavor, Quick Attack and Focus Sash equipped.
Start with the first Rattata and use Endeavor as he will lower you to 1 HP with your Sash equipped. Use Quick Attack to revengekill. If Alakazam defeats you before you can Quick Attack (somehow), your second Rattata only needs to Quick Attack with the Sash equipped and you'll get the Megastone. 
Once you win, you will earn your Megastone!

If you instead decide to be a pacifist, you can choose NOT to fight Alakazam and choose the "Compassion" option. You will begin a Fetch Quest.
Very important: READ THE DIALOGUE TO KNOW WHERE YOU HAVE TO TRAVEL TO.
There are multiple locations:

Talk to Abra in front of Granite Cave, Hoenn. Give it a Twistedspoon.
Talk to Abra in Route 205. Bring a Pokemon with Spore or Sleep Powder.

Talk to Kadabra in Floaroma Town, it's near the entrance to the lower side of Floaroma Meadow. Bring a pokemon with the move Brick Break.
Talk to Kadabra in Hearthome City. It's inbetween the two fountains, near Psychic Yukki NPC. Bring a pokemon that knows the move Trick.

Talk to Alakazam in Sunnyshore City, it's in front of the lighthouse. Bring a pokemon with high SPATK stat (Gengar, for example)
Talk to Kadabra in Lilycove City. He asks you to show him a Kirlia.

After you talk to up to 3 of these mentioned above, he will grant you the Megastone!

Personal comment: just use a Rattata with Endeavor, Quick Attack and Focus Sash and just beat him in the first turn.

 

Mega Manectric

 

Mega Manectric’s quest can be started in Route 123, Berry Garden.

 

This one will make yourself want to rip your hair out, so get ready:
Requirements.
Level 100 pokemon (seriously, YOU NEED THIS). It should be a VERY strong attacking sweeper. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS WITH TANK POKEMON. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE. Do not attempt with slow attackers or multi-hit moves either.
I am using Diggersby Adamant with Choice Band equipped and Huge Power so I can powerforce myself through this nightmare of a quest. 
You need Cut, Surf and Rock Smash (either as learned moves or as tools).
People suggest to use a light weight pokemon, but it has been beaten with a Dragonite (which is a bit fat, to be honest). Rotom Heat would fit here as it works really well against almost all the trainers (except if you get Blissey, in that case you just instantly lose).

You need to talk to the Farmer inside of the Berry Farm. He will teleport you to a starting point. You have to go to the northwest dodging spinning and moving trainers, fighting two obligatory trainers and you need to interact with the Salamance Statue. Then, you need to head back in the same way. You need to return and talk to the Farmer as soon as possible.
You need to do this in less than 120 seconds. Problems:

-All the trainers have a randomised level 100 pokemon with them. It's between a pool of pokemon, from which I've found:
Blissey, Shedinja, Ninjask, Steelix, Heracross, Shuckle and Alakazam. The problems:
-If you don't have a Fire/Rock/Flying/Ghost/Dark type attack and find Shedinja, you've automatically lost if you have no way to Poison/Burn it.
-If you're a special attacker and you find Blissey, you've lost. That thing is absurdly bulky.
-If you're a physical attacker and you find Shuckle or Steelix, you will need to pray to defeat it in one hit.
-Alakazam and Heracross will wreck you if you're unprepared.
-Ninjask is just annoying and fast, but it has nothing else to it.
-The only obligatory trainers are the Snorlax cosplayer and the monk next to the Rock Smash place. However, there's a catch: if you speak to them by accident, YOU WILL HAVE TO FIGHT THEM AGAIN. If you missclick, you're done and lost. You can only fight these 2 trainers 2 times each (once when you go in and once when you go out) if you want to earn the Megastone. Fighting any optional trainers means you've just lost and you'll not have enough time.

If you manage to do all of this under 120 seconds, then you should earn your Mega Manectric Stone. I accidentally found a Shiny Manectric on the way while raging and walking back to the Megaquest spot over and over again, so I guess my suffering with this guide is being worth it lol.

 

Mega Sharpedo and Mega Camerupt

 

Mega Sharpedo's and Mega Camerupt's quest can be started in Slateport City.

 

Talk to the NPC Charlene and participate in the Festival. You need to bring three specific pokemon.
One pokemon that knows the move Rock Smash and Brick Break. You want BOTH. It is also commonly agreed that this pokemon should have the ability Mold Breaker or it must have a Base ATK stat of 135 or higher. (if you have no idea what this means, check this guide. Use a Rampardos!
Another pokemon that is a Fire Type. You will get bonus points if you use a pokemon with the ability Magma Armor (Slugma, Magcargo, Camerupt). This ensures a win.
A pokemon with the move Surf or a Surf mount.

HEAVILY Recommended:

1.- Pokemon with Rock Smash, Brick Break and the ability Mold Breaker. So far, we've only been able to beat this with a Rampardos, Mold Breaker with these moves. It is possible that you only need the Ability + one of these two moves, but it is also implied that the pokemon should need a high ATK stat.
2.- Rotom-Mow with Thunderbolt and Leaf Storm, Timid/Modest and with a Choice Specs. This will take care of the third trial, which is by far the most obnoxious. Otherwise, just a very strong Electric type with also Grass type moves.
3.- A Surf Mount.

I recommend:

Rampardos with Mold Breaker and Brick Break and Rock Smash learned. This grants first place 100% of the time in the First Trial.
Camerupt with Magma Armor. This grants first place 100% of the time in the Second Trial. Credits to Belzebel for Camerupt and Rampardos idea :V
Sharpedo with Speed Boost or Ludicolo / Rotom Maw to fight the trainers. (unconfirmed if this grants you anything as a bonus in the Third Trial. Must be tested. The other two however are 100% guaranteed to work).Ç
For the third trial, use a Grass/Electric pokemon + Surf Mount otherwise.

Be ready to get lost many times because the map is gigantic and confusing as hell. It's also obnoxious. I'll go step by step.
Talk to NPC Charlene in Slateport. You will have to show her the pokemon mentioned above. You can only bring in three pokemon. You will be teleported to the Hoenn Festival Map.
Here you first have to talk to Charlene so that the Rock Breaking trial begins. When you've done so, you need to head for the northeast of the map and get to the rocky area. You need to walk around until you find a gigantic Black/Grey rock next to Fan Tony NPC. Walk into it and you will get a prompt asking you to use a pokemon. Use a High ATK pokemon with both Rock Smash and Brick Break. I'd honestly use Infernape for this one, or just any Fighting type like Machamp. You will get extra points for this.

You need to now walk back to Charlene. Talk to her so she congratulates you and talk to her again to begin the second part of the trial. Walk back to the Rocky area and try to find your way until you find a wooden bridge to the west. It will bring you to the Magma area. Try to find an area where there's a Magma pond with all the participants in it and find a spot to sit in. Choose your Magma Armor pokemon to participate in it. After you do so, walk back to Charlene. THE WORST PART BEGINS NOW.

Talk to Charlene yet again. She will tell you that the last trial will begin. Walk to the southeast of the map. You will find the other participants in a line. Before you participate, place your Grass/Electric type in the first slot of your party, use your Surf mount or your Surf pokemon and surf to them. You will now have to walk clockwise through water around the entire island. If a wild pokemon spots you (they will be swimming around the island), you will be teleported and will lose a masive amount. You will be forced to fight many trainers in the way without being able to use items in battle. These rectangular platforms will fully heal your party when you step on them. Be sure to use a Grass/Electric type pokemon that can defeat everything in a single hit or you will 100% be unable to beat this quest part. Finally, speak to Charlene to obtain your Megastones if you ended in first place!
 

 

Mega Mawile

 

Mega Mawile’s quest can be started in Valley of Steel, Eastern Peak.

 

You need to bring a Level 100 Mawile with Max Happiness. Unconfirmed if OT or not and which requirements it needs aside from this.

Talk to the NPC Looker first. Now, talk to the Granny and then talk to Looker again.
Visit the Western Peak. You should only be able to enter it when it's Night Time.
Hide inside. A Mysterious Girl NPC will appear. You have to hide from her. She will attempt to sleep twice. You need to try and wake her up twice without her noticing you. You need to follow her and avoid the Police Guardian if possible.
You will now face her. Get your boss team ready and include in it a Mawile at Level 100 with full happiness.
Her team is: Absol, Drifloon, Mimikyu, Spiritomb, Zoroark diguised as Banette and Mega Banette.
When you win the fight, you need to go back to Eastern Peak and talk to Looker. Now, visit the Cave of Steel and fight Byron with your Mawile alone.
His team has a Bastiodon, Omastar and Bronzong. If you win, you will obtain the Mawile Megastone.

Mega Metagross

 

Mega Metagross’ quest can be started in Steven's House, Mossdeep City.

You will need to donate 2 Metang after you speak to the NPC Steven with over 100 IV total each. They do not need to have your OT, so you can buy some from other players. BIG WARNING: When you donate them, they will be permanently gone.
Afterwards, you need to donate 3 non-Steel type pokemon that have less than 70 IV total. They also do not need to be your OT, but they must be caught AFTER you begin the quest.
Finally, you will have to face his Mega Metagross and you can only use Steel Type Pokemon.

Be ready because he's VERY Tough! (Claws. Get it? GET IT? I'm so funny I should be a comedian)

 

Mega Medicham

 

Mega Medicham’s quest can be started in Mt Pyre Exterior.

 

This megaquest requires you to be the Sinnoh Champion. Speak with Brawly. He will be there with Medicham.
Now speak to John. He will scam you with a false Megastone and run away. You need to follow him to Mt Pyre Summit. Brawly will try to help you and give you the Megastone, but his Medicham refuses and wants to first battle him. 
You need to bring a good nature Medicham with Jolly or Adamant nature that has been caught by you (OT) AFTER you've talked to this NPC (unconfirmed if it can be an old one) with Full Happiness.
It is recommended that you equip it with a Focus Sash and just use Counter, the Medicham will defeat itself.

After you defeat it, you will earn the Megastone!

Mega Pidgeot

 

Mega Pidgeot’s quest can be started in Viridian City.

 

 

In Viridian City, cut the tree on the top left and go through until you see the Flying Type Lover NPC. You need to defeat him. Then, he will ask you to show him how you train a Pidgey.

You need to capture a Pidgey below level 6 (5 is the maximum) and show it to him. It has to be PIDGEY, and not evolved forms! He will tell you if the Pidgey is appropriate.

You now need to beat his level 80 Pidgeot with your Pidgey (you can evolve it and use Pidgeotto or Pidgeot!) in a 1 vs 1 fight. This is why you should train your Pidgey to 97 or so. 

After winning, you have to go to Indigo Plateau and find Blue in the Kanto Elite Four building. Show him the Pidgey and battle against him. You're allowed to use any pokemon so bring your full Boss Team!
He will fight you with a Gyarados, Exeggutor, Alakazam, Rhyperior, Tyranitar, Arcanine, Machamp and Mega Pidgeot. Some of his pokemon seem to be randomized. All his pokemon use Life Orb as an item.

Once you defeat him, go back to Viridian City, talk to the Flying Type Lover NPC and show him your Pidgey. You will obtain your Megastone!

 

Mega Pinsir

 

Pinsir's Megastone can be obtained through winning in the Bug Catching Contest. Unconfirmed if it's just winning once or three times like Beedrill's and Herracross' Megastones.

 

Mega Sableye

 

Mega Sableye’s quest can be started in Diamond Domain B1F, Love Island.

 

Talk to the NPC Gem Collector. He will ask you to deliver a Sableye. You will need to go and catch one, with no requirements. Bring it to the NPC. I recommend Sky Pillar or Rustboro City Headbutt Trees.
You will now need a high level Aurorus. You can obtain Aurorus by digging in Dig Spots and reviving Sail Fossils in Cinnabar Laboratory. You can now level it up.
You will then fight a level 100 Sableye. As Yellovv and others recommended, it's a good idea to make it tanky (with HP EV Training). Toxic, Protect, Rest and another Status move equipped with Leftovers should do the job.
You cannot challenge it if you have ANY attacking moves. You need 4 Status moves.
The NPC will then ask you to bring a pokemon with the move Scald and one with the move Rock Smash (unconfirmed if it needs to be both in one or separate, but Azumarill can learn both.
 

Explanation from Ferocityy for the final step:
You will have to choose between two options.
"Dig"
"Collect"
If you Dig too many times, the Gem will break and you will need to wait for a 30 minute cooldown.
If you Collect too early, you will not get the Gem and you will have to wait for a 5 minute cooldown.
Users suggest to Dig around 2 to 3 times and then Collect. It seems to be completely random between 1 and 5 though.
Once you are lucky, you will be able to speak to the NPC and get the Megastone!
 

Mega Slowbro

 

Mega Slowbro’s quest can be started in Cliff Edge Gate, next to Cianwood City, Johto.

Talk to the NPC Sam (investigator). He's in the water, in a small grounded space. You need to give him three random Shellders, no requirements at all. After that, he will teleport to Whirl Islands. Talk to him in Whirl Islands. B2F. Multiple Rocket Grunts will appear! They will kidnap the pokemon and travel to Slowpoke Well.

You must now go to Slowpoke Well, Azalea Town. You will have to go through the wild pokemon and go to the 2nd floor, underground. Find Sam and defeat the Rocket Grunt Boss. You will earn your Slowbronite when you talk to Sam!
The Rocket Grunt Boss has a Machamp, Houndoom, Gengar, Steelix, Crobat and Mega Slowbro at level 100!

 

Mega Tyranitar

 

Mega Tyranitar’s quest can be started in Gold's Gym, Saffron City.

 

You need a level 100 Tyranitar with the natures Adamant, Jolly, Impish, Careful, Relaxed or Sassy with atleast 120 IV Total (counting all stats). It does not necessarily have to be yours.

Talk to the Kung Fu Master NPC. You will have to beat his five pokemon. It seems you fight Muk first, then Graveler, Boldore, Lairon and Mega Steelix. There are other pokemon like Gigalith and Golem that can also appear. They all have Sturdy (except Muk and Mega Steelix). If you succeed, you will earn your Megastone!

To win, you need to avoid being poisoned by Muk and you might be able to bruteforce through it, as you cannot use any items. The quest is a bit weird and some users have experienced having to fight less or more pokemon than others.

[Yellovv]

Sableye quest, start at diamond domain B1F. 
step 1: talk with this npc
step 2: catch a fresh new sableye, iv, nature wont matter. Bring it to NPC and wait 1 hour IRL.

step 3: prepare a high lv aurorus, my recomendation: lv 70+, move set: toxic, protect, rest, 1 random status move. CAN BORROW FROM FRIEND ( make sure this is the only poke in your party)

step 4: beat a lvl 100 sableye with it

step 5: bring 1 pokemon with move "Scald", 1 pokemon with move "Rock smash"

step 6: kinda RNG, myself have to select "push" the gem 5 times then collect it, might be random for anyone.
