What happens if a Pokémon comes to Mega-Evolve and then gets roared ?

Question

Hello!

So Arca here. I have many questions about Mega-Evolution today. Yup. So say we have Gyarados up against Empoleon. Stealth Rock is already active. Now, Gyarados mega-evolves. And then, Empoleon uses Roar. What would happen at this moment ? Gyarados would get out of the field ? Can my opponent mega-evolve another time ?

Thank you.

What do you mean with "mega-evolve another time?"?

Mega-Evolution can occur only once, so if the Mega-Pokémon got roared, I wonder if the opponent can mega-evolve another time. You get it, now ?

Answer 1

Once you Mega Evolved, you remain in that form until the match ends, regardless if you switch or get roared out. Once Mega Evolved, you are unable to revert back into its normal form, and the Pokemon will take hazard damage based on its Mega Evos typing.

Really ? Oh my. My strategy to kill Megas is now ... killed itself.
