Will she ever be relevant again without her mega evolution?
>>57211925>Megashit completely cucks her of getting both a pre-evolution and male variant
If it's your bro then viability doesn't matter and if viability matters then you don't use your bros.
>>57211975this is why I don't play competitive. My friend keeps trying to get me into it and I don't think he realizes just how many of my favorites are NFEs and/or shitmons
>>57211975what if my bros both look cool and kick ass
>>57212074>all my bros just happen to be goodYou fall in the latter category but try to hide it.
>>57212074That's never the case unless you have bad taste, retard. There is a reason why cute pokémon suck and ugly as shit Ferrothorn-tier Pokémon are meta.
If Kangaskhan had Mega Kangaskhan's stats by default, but no Parental Bond, would that be enough to make it good? That's +30 Attack, +20 to both defenses, a somewhat pointless +20 Sp. Atk, and +10 Speed.
>>57211943Why does she need a male counterpart?
>>57212759Male kangaroos exist and male Kangaskhan was supposed to too, but alternate gender forms for Pokemon besides Nidoran wouldn't be a thing until DP and the small indie company was too small to edit the pouch and baby out to make a male Kangaskhan sprite.
[pmkujira_820]■Name■Type Parent and Child Pokemon■Type Normal■Height 2.2m※Size of Kangaskhan.※Child's height is 1.0m.■Weight 100.0kg※Combined weight of parent and child.※Kagura=80.0kg, Child=20.0kg■Settings・Fight in cooperation with parent and child. Both perform the same movements at the same time.※The two perform standby and attack motions at the same time.・Child's power is boosted by mega evolution, but its abilities are half that of its mother.※When mega evolved, its attack power is 1.5 times stronger (battle specifications and adjustments are required)・Child's are mischievous and competitive. They fight hard to protect their mother, and will boldly fight even against opponents bigger than themselves. They have an indomitable fighting spirit that will not give in even when hurt.※Only male children.
>>57212102>Ferrothorn>uglyFerrothorn is cool. So is Heatran. Sorry your favorites suck, anon.
>>57211925>part of gen 1always relevant
>>57212934oh shit did we finally get concept art for the megas from the teraleak?
>>57211925Aussie region soon™
>>57213644We got them months ago.
>>57211925mega evolutions ruined the whole franchise and the need to be left in the dust. fans lap them up because they have low standards and seeing old mons with slight differences is enough to make them buy both versions of the game at full price, therefor, enabling gamefreak's laziness, what a fucking mistake they were. fuck 3D era pokemon
>Houndoom>Mawile>Manectric>Banette>Absol>Sableye>Sharpedo>Camerupt>Altaria>Glalie>Lopunny>AudinoAll of those could have been proper evolutions and I love that people immediately regret praising megas because they didn't 'ruin' a Pokemon's design.
>>57215334Half of those do not need evolutions, what they need is for the Mega's stats to be its base stats, and then the Mega adds on top of that
>>57215334>what if I posted every standalone/two-stage mega and pretended they were "robbed" the minute they finally stopped being shitmons
>>57211943>pre-evolutionThis is Cubone, but without a mother figure in its life it becomes a Marowak instead.
