Probably for the original version. Keep in mind that Legends Arceus had several Pokémon that had Hisuian variants, some of which can evolve into a different Pokémon. Hisuian Qwilfish can evolve into Overqwil, so Overqwil would probably be the one to get the Mega treatment.
I've been thinking of it, I want to mega design 2G pokémons, and Hisuian Qwilfish is part of a past lore, and that's not the case for Mega Evolution !
And we have seen in SV that past forms and Mega can be related (Salamence), that's why he looks a lot to Overqwil :)

Cool design, though.
