So what is the goddamn point of most pokemon if you can now have multiple megas on your team? Why bring any lower lifeforms when you could just bring more mega options?
>>58304617Eternal Floette will now do double damage to megas.
>>58304617There is no point. The entire purpose of megas is to differentiate the Pokémon that matter from the megalet fodder.
>>58304617I mean, even discounting legendaries/mythicals/etc there are 66 pokemon capable of megaevolving in Z-A, over 70 with the DLC, you can have two or three megas just fine. You can even have a team full of megas and still have variety.But to answer your question, the handicap of having a whole team of mega-ready pokemon is that they can't use items whatsoever, plus we all know no battle will be long enough for you to megaevolve your entire team.
>the handicap of having a whole team of mega-ready pokemon is that they can't use items whatsoeverI suppose. Will it truly be that much of a handicap though? I guess it'll depend on ZA's hold items.>plus we all know no battle will be long enough for you to megaevolve your entire team.True, but you have more options.
>>58304617>like the pokemon>use the pokemonThat's the point. Try having a soul.
Have they confirmed that? Good, I hate them having 100 megas and then only letting me use one
>>58304617I hate nu-pokemon so much.
Maybe this is what Plus Moves are trying to address?
>>58304617You can use multiple Megas in Z-A and you have to "Earn" them in battle by collecting energy mid-battle there if i got it right. Im pretty sure they made no mention of Multiple Megas for Champions.
>>58304742Megaevolution isn't free in Z-A, instead you gain megaenergy as the battle progresses and then release it with megaevolution, but you can regain it in the same battle and megaevolve again later.>>58304746Plus moves are just upgraded moves and megaevolving turns all moves into plus moves, that's all
>>58304617>Why bring any lower lifeforms when you could just bring more mega options?If GF wanted you to use those lower lifeforms, they would've given them megas.
>>58304965This
>Plus moves are just upgraded moves and megaevolving turns all moves into plus moves, that's allYeah, so they're letting pleb-mons still interact with mega energy via plus moves."Oh, we designated your favorite as a lesser race who can't mega evolve? At least you can use plus moves, isn't that great?"
>>58307125Basically, yes. Every pokemon can benefit from megaenergy even if actual megas are better.
>>58304617ZA is not a serious Pokemon game. It's like Pokemon Ranger or Mystery Dungeon. It's not supposed to represent the actual Pokemon meta.
>>58304617Just made my team (might change depending on the DLC megas)
