they're actually evil for making BOTH of these resemble Pikachu more than Raichu. Why not just make the megas for Pikachu? why drag Raichu through the mud?

Because of gamefreak's retarded self-inflicted rules

They tried giving Pikachu a special form with G-Max Pikachu and it didn't have a big impact

idk a lot of megas include design elements from the prevos, I think they both look like raichu plenty.

Because Pikachu is not fully evolved. No NFE has a Mega, nor will they get one because Mega Evolution pushes the limits of evolution. NFEs aren't at that limit yet.

Raichu is just and oversized orange Pikachu. These are just more of the same shit like Pawmot and other Pikaclones

There isn't a single mega that's for a Pokemon isn't a single stage, or fully evolved, meaning they pick Pokemon exclusively that can no longer evolve to get mega evolutions

I'm 100% positive Raichu literally only got these BECAUSE they couldn't give them to Pikachu, due to how mega evolution is handled

Pikachu, Charizard and Mewtwo are the Kanto trio that always get marketed, and Charizard and Mewtwo already both have 2 megas, so it was Pikachu's turn, and Raichu had to bite the bullet for being tied to Pikachu
>>
>>58243841
Well megas aren't opposed to incorporating their pre-evos in their design, i.e Tyranitar and Dragonite.

Mega Raichu X is Raichu+Pichu
Mega Raichu Y is Raichu/Pikachu.
>>
>>58243841
Because then they'd indirectly put themselves in a position to imply Mega Evolutions can be given to mons who aren't fully evolved, which in turn would make for a whole heap of bitching and moaning for Megas for NFEs instead of Pikachu (and probably Eevee too) being exception cases.
