He is supposed to be a SM Retro Zubat

But now it only has the shiny sigh, what in the world happened to him?!

I spent a lot on him, the shiny is completely worthless comparing to the SM, so plz fix it!

I don’t think a retro zubat can be mega. Zubat is not the final evolution so there’s no “mega zubat” and also retros can’t evolve

@crystalwinter- retros can be mega-able. i have one here. but i might get what ur trying to point out.

@shinymegagardevoir - have u put a megastone on it, and tried to mega-evolve it? if so, that might be the reason why. this is just speculation though.

I think there may be some sort of error in the code during the trade
Hope it gets resolved whatever the problem is

@~razpberry - Oh wow, I didn't know that was a thing. The more you know. But it still can't evolve (?)

@SMG I didn't Do Anything with Pokemon when hatched and traded with you and when you got the pokemon was Still A SM. You reported that problem/Glitch or something else by yesterday's feed . Yesterday Riako Hatch a SM Zubat too but normal not Retro I think this is connection between them
Coincidence Maybe..!

there isn't a screenshot, but first, many people saw it (someone told me this so I realize), second, ALL MA Retro Zubats turn into a normal, mine is the only SM in the game i think?

If all MA retro Zubat lost their bubble, maybe Riako simply decided bubbles on retros don't make sense [which they don't] and decided to fix that glitch in the code?

@CatLady It appears to be just MA Zubat (Retro) that are affected. Furret’s SM Bulbasaur (Retro). Pika~’s MA (Y) Charmander (Retro). Neph’s MA Squirtle (Retro).

And another case of this: pianocw’s former MA Zuvat (Retro)

So, it appears, for some reason, that Riako made it not possible for Mega-Able Zubat (Retro) to exist anymore, which may have been an accident, or on purpose.

Um, I had a few more friends who had SMretro, they don’t have the problem, but other who had mega able retro Zubat had the same thing ;_;

Retros can't evolve, and they can't mega evolve. Thus a mega ability makes no sense for them to begin with. If they ARE mega able, that's a bug.
So there's nothing to fix really

but how about the money I spent on that SM? but why only Zubat ;w;? there are many other retros that can be MA too

Maybe the best solution is to make mega retro pokemon? :3

Given the fact Riako stated it was a bug, I feel the safest assumption to make is that eventually all those other mega retros will lose their mega power also.

Fact of the matter is, you paid for the novelty of a megable that can't evolve, it had no inherent value outside of being a shiny retro bat because it can't evolve or mega evolve, kinda like buying a special misprint of a dollar bill for the value of its error, despite it not being legal tender or worth anything more than the value it represented.
