>Mogs all other gimmick slop
>>58807015Not a single good design jesus fucking christ what an aberration of a gimmick
It's the most sovlfvl gimmick fosho but I still resent the fact it cucked some 'mons like Sableye and Mawile out of a regular evolution
>>58807015Do we have a full body image like this? Also where to get Margearna? I just got Zeraora
>>58807019I don't think it cucks them out of much of anything. They might still get evos some day, them being permanently locked out of any because they got a mega is pure headcanon
>>58807049they can have a regional variation that has an alternative evolution
>>58807049It's explicitely stated that megas are only for fully evolved pokemon, speedreader.
>>58807015At least you admit that it's slop too
>>58807067Yes, except for Floette because uh, it's special or something :) They will retcon this shit if they feel like it
>>58807079Floette is fully evolved, again read the game.>They will retcon this shit if they feel like itThe fact that they easily could have done so but instead decided to double down on it says otherwise but I guess you're one of those tards that thinks they will one day retcon Arceus being the god of the universe despite outright directly saying it in PLA.
>>58807079NTA but AZ Floette is unique and cannot evolve into Florges, which technically makes it a fully-evolved pokemon, and no other Floette can mega evolve.And AZ Floette was a thing since XY (alongside regular Floette) and was relevant to the plot so it's not like they just created a new form today just to give it a mega.Maybe they might give a mega to a random not fully evolved mon, but AZ Floette is its own thing. And I don't think they will because Game Freak REALLY wanted to give their giga ultra shillmon Pikachu two megas but eventually gave them to Raichu, just for them to look like Pikachu anyways.
Is mega rayquaza still banned to AG on showdown?I haven't played comp since gen 6 but it feels like there's just been more powerful things at this point as crazy as that is
>>58807095>>58807108Whatever, no point in arguing with you patternfags. Same shit with the people believing in that zodiac thing and doing all sorts of mental gymnastics for it, or the ones who thought Gamefreak would never do cross gen evos again after adding the eviolite. Gamefreak does not give a shit, and if they feel like doing a Sableye evo at some point they will do a Sableye evo and will brush off the fact that it had a mega by saying that this is a special evolution or something along those lines. In like 5 years you will be disproven
>>58807144>PatternfagsDawg, play ZA before you go about discussing these thingsI am about 99% certain it is mentioned that megas are for both pokemon that have reached the end of their evolutionary potential and go beyond, and that AZ's floette cannot evolve due to the effects of the ultimate weapon. That is about as consistent as it'll be.If they were eager to ignore their own rules then they would've just given pikachu a mega instead of awkwardly inserting it over raichu.
>>58807015was giving megas to legendaries really neccesary? mega rayquaza is absurdly OP, and now they decided to give one to freaking magearna>>58807144>people reply with arguments that contradicts yours>noooooo no point in arguing with you!!!just fuck off then
>>58807015>all the nutrash from ZAI miss when mega was a rare phenomenon that only a few mons could reach by breaking the limit of their species. now with shit like scovilain of emboar being able to mega evolve it just feel like another flavor of regional forms where every shitmons and their mom can go mega for no reason.
>>58807067They also explicitly stated that megas were ONLY found in Kalos. Same shit in Gen 4 when Rowan said legendaries don’t evolve. Gamefreak can just change the rules if they feel like it.
>>58807015That's not Mega Kangaskhan
>>58807167>mega rayquaza is absurdly OP
>>58807366Fixed
>>58807338Eternal Floette gave them the perfect opportunity to retcon it and they simply didn't. Just accept it, you favorite sub 400 bst shitmon will be tied to a gimmick forever.
>>58807067so why there's no mega toxicitry or ribombee or pallosand or revavroom?
This doesn’t look like Z-moves
>>58808161i know, thats the best part
>>58808161Probably because Z-moves are the worst gimmick by far, even worse than inflationmax
>>58807144If they were going to contradict that, they would have given Pikachu mega evolutions instead of Raichu
>>58808177>wahhh, the mechanic doesn’t make my autistic parasocial comfort character turn into a digimon, it’s… le bad?!?
>>58808183Nah, it's bad because it's a boring one time nuke after a cringe gay dance, strawmananon. At least teras dumb hats come with interesting changes in how your pokemon offenses and defenses behave despite being visually more boring than megas and gigas transformations.
Opinion: All Megas for two-stage evolutions should have just been their third stage.
>>58807384I know your a disingenuous retard, but by your logic Ninjask would be one of the most powerful Pokemon in the game.
>>58808147Because all those shitters are flopmons unworthy of megas only iconic important shillmons who are worhshipped by game freak such as CHARIZARD, Meganim, Gyarados, Lucario, etc get megas
It's funny because Mega Evolution wasn't even conceived as a gimmick in their leaked documents. Masuda just thought of reviving classic Pokemon with super forms, like an extra evolution method.Ohmori keeps trying to reinvent the wheel and now we get slop like Tera.
Gonna laugh so hard then they release second evolution of Mawile in gen 12 and then i will screencap all these posts and call you retards.
>>58807015But megas are THE gimmick slop
>>58808691Mawile got a grand total of diddly squat for the 20 years it has existed and GF doesn't plan on giving it anything. That's the real "pattern" behind megas, either 3 stage mons that couldn't evolve anyway or shitmons sees as to irrelevant to expand on further.
>>58807015The only new megas that look like Megas are Mega-Chesnaught and Mega-Malamar.
>>58807015>this is the top of the slop>the sloppiest if you will
