How much Mega Energy does a Mega Evolution cost?

The first Mega Evolution of a species costs 200 Mega Energy for most Pokémon and more for legendaries such as Rayquaza. After that, Mega Evolving again is free once the cooldown ends; Mega Energy only pays to skip it.

How do Mega Levels work in Pokémon GO?

Each Mega Evolution on a new day adds a point. Base level is reached on the first, High at 7 and Max at 30. Higher levels shorten the cooldown from 7 days to 5 and then 3, make skipping it cheaper, and add more Candy, Candy XL and XP to catches of the same type.

What is Super Max Mega Level?

A fourth Mega Level for a few species. It needs the 30 Mega Evolutions of Max level plus 5,000 Mega Energy, cuts the cooldown to one day, adds 3 Candy and a 30% Candy XL chance to same-type catches, and raises the Mega's own level by two in battle.

How Mega Energy and Mega Levels work

The first Mega Evolution of a species costs Mega Energy: 200 for most Pokémon and more for legendaries. After that, Mega Evolving again is free once the cooldown ends, and Mega Energy only buys a skip. Every Mega Evolution on a new day adds a point toward the next Mega Level: High at 7 and Max at 30, each with a shorter cooldown and a cheaper skip.

While a Mega is out, Pokémon you catch that share one of its types drop extra Candy, and from High level they can drop Candy XL and extra XP. In raids the Mega boosts everyone's attacks: 30% for moves of its type and 10% for the rest.

Super Max is a fourth level for a handful of species. It needs the Max level's 30 Mega Evolutions plus 5,000 Mega Energy, cuts the cooldown to a day, raises the catch bonuses again and lifts the Mega's own level by two for battle.
