Mega Raichu X and Y
guess their stats and abilities
>>
>>58240160
both look ugly and Pikachuifed. Raichufans lost
>>
well off the bat x looks like its another elec/fight while y looks pure elec so its the mewtwo thing all over again where x is phys and y is special
>>
>>58240160
I have no fucking idea, they look actually retarded.

Left one is physical though, since his arms got bigger and also lost their fucking fingers so now they're like weird fat clubs.
>>
>>58240160
>X gets Pikachu tails
>Y gets Pikachu ears
disgusting
>>
>>58240160
only X is Raichu
Y is Pikachu
>>
Unironically they look like AI
>>
>>58240160
they having pikachu proportions ruins the design a lot. They should have had a bigger body
>>
you can tell they originally wanted to do Mega Pikachu but remembered Raichu's existence
>>
>>58240160
These are some awful designs.
>>

Cope pikacuck.

>>58240160
Were the two Charizard and Mewtwo forms shaped like an X and Y or did they just decide to do that for Raichu for some reason?

Finally, Gorochu
>>
>>58240209
Absolutely. I'm surprised that they didn't accept it and bypass Raichu. They did it with Gigantamax and Z moves, why not this time too?
>>
>>58240229
>>58240231
The duality of man.
>>
>>58240186
Honestly, even Charizard falls into that, despite X having a mixed attack stat spread.

>>58240160
The one on the left was clearly supposed to be mega Pikachu.

Every mega is shaped like an X or Y

I thought X looked better on the promo art but here I can see the proportions are dogshit.
>>
>>58240160
60 base hp renders making it bulky an impossible task and Raichu is a fast mixed attacker so they're obviously going for one fast physical and one fast special
>>
>>58240160
Why give Raichu Y the extra ears? That's so fucking dumb.

Fuck Game Freak to the lowest pits of hell.
>>
>>58240182
A theoretical Mega Raichu would look more like Pikachu no matter how you look at it. This was inevitable.
>>
>>58240288
X should've been a physical sweeper Gorochu. Y could stay speedy special attacker Pikachu. Best of both worlds.
>>
>>58240160

WHAT
A

OPPORTUNITY
>>
>>58240250
I think Reckless or an Intimidate-immune ability is also possible for X considering how they balance/design Physical Attackers and that Physical Mega Raichu (which like its gonna be X Physical Y Special, they already did that twice) is just gonna be a Volt Tackle machine

They love making the Y ones strictly better so like, Electric Surge feels like the biggest shoe-in hands down. The game also desperately needs a non-legendary E terrain setter when Electric and Psychic already have absolute monsters in Rillaboom and Indeedee-F when theyre both literally the best of their types (well, ignoring legendaries at least), so giving Raichu on the "Pikachu inspired form" one of the most busted abilities you can put on a Pokemon in Weather/Terrain setting is a shoe-in for "automatically hyper relevant" in the same way Charizard Y was

FUCKING HIDEOUS THIS BETTER BE FAKE
>>
>>58240160
X is normal raichu, Y is alolan
>>
>>58240160
Both look too Pikachufied, the fanart of the Gorochu's concept looks better.

Anyway, left looks Electric-Fighting. I hope right one isn't pure Electric.
>>
>>58240343
The problem with giving it an Intimidate immune ability is that it still has to be sent out as base Raichu and get Intimidated first turn. I think they give it something like Huge Power to simulate the Light Ball on Pikachu. I agree with Electric Surge for Y, though, it's a perfect fit.

I still don't know how to fully interpret the back sprite but real gorochu was probably uglier than anyone wants to admit.

all gen 1 back sprites are ugly

True. and even if it wasn't amazing at least it didn't have two sets of ears.

Mega form is pikachufied very much. Both form appearance gets mixed between Pikachu and Raichu, a tiny bit of Pichu too. They knew what design they're going after.
>>
>>58240160
they're so ugly, i can't even pretend i want to fuck them. hopefuly a furry artists changes my mind.
>>
>>58240160
both look really off
>>
>>58240442
yeah missed opp with them making mega raichu similar to gorochu, i do quite like raichu X design at least
>>
>>58240493
There's also a third option in that they just go fuck it, go all in on Physical and Bulk ignoring speed, give it Intimidate and its just some combination of Volt Switch Fake Out Volt Tackle Nuzzle Knock Off etc etc so its a bootleg Yellow Incineroar, leaning into its (historically) mainly support role

Deviantart Mega Rais look better, kill whoever in Creatures Inc oked these designs
>>
>>58240882
Fair point.
>>
>>58240577
Part of me wonder if it's meant to be a reference to Pikachu defeating Surge's Raichu in the anime by standing on it's tail

I can't wait til the fix it designs start pouring in, which will also be bad.

Definitely, they actually both look like Raichu+Pikachu fusions but I'm glad they didn't give it to Pikachu.
>>
>>58241141
Anon that's the magic of 3d models, they aren't static images. Raichu X and Raichu Y will get glowing tail, ears and cheeks during their battle animations
>>
>>58240897
In retrospective, it was obvious the corp would make them look like Pikachu.
>>
>>58240232
No NFE has a mega, because it doesn't make sense to. Mega Evolution is "exceeding the normal limits of evolution", so an NFE still hasn't reached its limits yet to exceed them.

A Mega for terrain setting isn't that better than a legendary though.

Thanks for proving you don't play the games.

Look at how they massacred my boy…
>>
>>58240258
as much as I think galvanize is cool on Raichu especially if it regains e-speed, I doubt they'll give it since that means its main attack will now become double edge instead of volt tackle

Are they trying their absolute hardest to make the most unappealing Pokemon designs possible? Fuck me, man.
>>
>>58240160
X seems physical
Y seems special
I shall be using two Raichu in ZA.

>>58240577
So levitate or maybe iron fist.
>>58240586
Speed boost maybe? Probably shifted stats from defenses into speed/offense

Raichufan here. Fell in love with the design ever since I fought Surge. I can finally rest happy knowing the words "Mega Raichu" finally exist. I don't fucking care if those designs suck, it was inevitable. I don't even play the new games so I will never use them. But that confirmation will lead to many fanarts and redesigns of Mega Raichu, this means Raichu is getting love.
And with so many redesigns and ideas, it will eventually lead to the definitive Gorochu design. This is a win.
>>
If they wanted to make Raichu a physical attacker they could have given it a huge sword tail instead of yet another lame puncher.
>>
>>58241607
It has more versatility because you can choose when to activate the terrain by Mega evolving vs. it being auto triggered when your pokemon comes out. Obviously Miraidon will outclass any Mega due to its stats but in competitive formats without restricteds a SpA electric Mega with electric terrain and access to Volt Switch sounds amazing on paper. Depending on the other support or attack moves it could be worth running over the usual overpowered Mega.
>>
>>58240160
Y was so close to being okay, just don't re add in Pikachu's ears.
>>
mega raichu x is absolute peak. the other one is extremely forgettable, why did they even bother?
>>
>>58242982
>mega raichu x is absolute peak.
It is more or less regular Raichu with two pikachu Tails and Pikachu's coloration
It is a downgraded Raichu.
>the other one is extremely forgettable, why did they even bother?
The second one is Pikachu with Raichus tail(which always looked better) and coloration, and odd bolts coming out of its ears.
>>
These are both terrible but Y is probably the worst design they've ever made
>>
>>58240160
Pikachu and its consequences have been disastrous for the Raichu nation

I have never in my pathetic life seen such a horrible fucking design. I'm genuenly dissapointed in how Pokemon managed to mess up up so bad recently. FUCK RAICHU X AND Y AND YUCK YOU TOO for asking this stupid ass bitchass quetsion motherfucker
>>
>>58240160
What the fuck am I looking at?
>>
>>58240160
So far X Megas have changed the original Pokémon's overall play style while Y upgrades the existing style (judging by the only other two we've seen).
>>
>>58240186
Apparently they're both Pure Electric according to Serebii.
>>
>>58240442
They're both pure Electric
>>
>>58240248
Only if you grossly contort them into unnatural shapes. Only a handful actually have an X or Y shape, and even then, it's not very obvious. You can draw any shape on any Pokémon and say it's intentionally designed that.
>>
>Paid DLC
Easily the worst part
