Stage 1 and Mega Pokemon

[TheStrictNein]

Just had a question that's been eating away at me and having it pop-up from place to place.

Do Mega Evolved Pokemon count as Stage 1 Pokemon? I'm in the "No" camp, due to it saying "Mega" above the prior evolution picture, rather than "Stage 1"

Thanks for any help.

No. They are what they say they are: Mega Evolution.
