The great debate

Which one do you prefer?

Which one would you want your favorite pokemon to get?
>>
>>58257030
Regional because atleast some of those look decent instead of all being trash.
>>
Imagine still seething over mega pokemon.
>>
>>58257030
i like regionals conceptually more but it was a pandoras box and i hate what they've become.
Megas are less intrusive and can be more easily ignored so I like them more.
Really I hate both.
>>
>>58257030
My favorite already got a Mega. I don't mind Megas, but Regional Forms at least don't require an item slot and have less reason to worry about disappearing in the next generation.
>>
both are garbage, same for other gimmicks and those absolutely retarded paradox pokémon
>>
>>58257030
regional >>> mega
they're not temporary, they have creative designs instead of the same thing but more

but I wish regional were changed into convergent forms with separate name and dex number

Regionals every day. I like the designs better overall and I enjoy having different flavours of the same thing that are able to interact with each other, which is a lot easier to do with a different species than a temporary super form.
Also a bunch of my favourites already got regionals.
>>
>>58257030
I would prefer more regionals over megas because they could just removed mega evolution again and all those designs would just be gone. The can omit regional variants but that has to be an active choice, rather than relying on a whole ass mechanic.
>>
>>58257030
regionals easily, the concept should have been explored way earlier in the series than it was.

they should be more willing to stray from the original designs though, more cursolas and runeriguses, less palette swaps or just the original wearing a wig/hat
>>
>>58257030
>if we count leaks megas win big a decent margin
>we are getting even more new megas in the dlc

>regionals number is also inflated because the NFE mon is irrelevant, only the final one matters
Based megas mogging regionals
>>
>bro gets regional form
>it's actually worse than the original by every metric
Many such cases
Notice how everyone says they prefer regionals, but no one would ever prefer their favorites to get a regional instead of a mega
Megachads win this one easily

Megas are more interesting to me since it dramatically alters how a Pokemon plays. Massive update to their stats, abilities, movepool expansion.
Regional Variants are cool for lore, but don't do anything for the original mon. Like Galar Farfetch'd, Zigzagoon, or Hisui Quilfish. Just makes the original version obsolete since they can't fully evolve. It's basically a new species.

>Which one would you want your favorite pokemon to get?
My favorites already made the cut!
>>
>>58257094
actually i would prefer that
>>
>>58257030
I prefer the regionals and divergent lines over megas.
>>
>>58257094
I want my favourites to get regionals, and even when I like a mega I would have preferred a regional instead
>>
>>58257030
I like the idea, dislike the execution of both
>>
Regionals can go into Pokemon Home, Megas cannot. Megas do not give me the satisfaction of completing a living form origin dex.
>>
Fact: The only reason people like megas as much as they do is because following gimmicks like Z-Moves and Gigantamaxes are shit and made Megas look better by comparison. In an ideal world, all of them would have been dropped and regionals would have been expanded on in better ways.

Your fav must be an irredeemable shitmon like zebstrika or watchog that couldn’t be fix even with an extra 100 bst then

>why yes, I totally want my bro to be replaced by a meme design mega and still be worthless because it's outclassed by other megas any ways
I can't imagine a worse fate than what Victreebel got, you're getting the worst of both worlds. I don't know why anyone would want a mega.
>>
>>58257030
Regionals for me. Megas are usually adding more stuff and most mons that get them end up overdesigned unless their base form is underdesigned like Mawile. Mons that are already developed and detailed enough are better off getting alts/regionals, which feel less like a retcon of the og design, and more like a celebration of it with a different flavor.
Generally, regionals for mons that i like and megas for those i don't would be ideal.
>>
Both suck, give us new pokemon.
>>
>>58257195
Fact: Nearly everyone who likes megas have liked them since XY and you are a coping retard.
