As shitty as some of the new megas are, you can take solace in the fact that it's not a permanent addition to your evolution line and can be ignored.
>>58404699i'd take kingambit over mega starmie every day
>>58404699temp formes are shit anyways not just megASS
>>58404699Pic unrelated btw
>>58404699All hail Lord Kingambit!
Kowtow or sucker. Call it.
>>58404699KingCHADbit saved the bishart line
>>58404736>KingCHADbit saved the bishart lineHell no
>>58404699if it was an evolution you could at least get eviolite out of it. Megas seal off the capacity for further evolution in the same way but give you nothing in return.
>>58404799They said this about gmax Duraludon
>>58404799And yet, Mega Floette exists.
>>58404825The special floette, which is more or less a legendary pokemon. The same Floette that was directly blasted by the source of mega pokemon. It's an exception. If they were willing to give normal unevolved pokemon mega we'd have a mega pikachu instead of 2 mega raichus that look like pikachu.
>>58404799eviolite rarely ever gives a mon a niche, it's always just a cope excuse
>>58404818>meowth>pikachu>eevee
>>58404849true but it's better than nothing, and every once in awhile it works out.
>>58404818>>58404917technically with Feraligatr and especially Raichu Y going hard on the "looks like prevo" gimmick, a mon who gets an evo that then gets a mega could unironically just revert back to the original mon
>>58404699>makes topic about pokemon that get evolutions in future gens looking like shit>pictures one of the few that actually is basedWhat did he mean by this?
>>58404849It makes Clefairy, Porygon2, Magmar, Electabuzz, Dusclops, Scyther, Murkrow, Rhydon, (probably a few others I'm forgetting) viable in VGC.Eviolite actually invalidates the evolved forms of several of these pokemon.
>>58404734Turns out the Milwaukee competitor chose... poorly.
>>58405023That was a dope match
>>58404699Kingambit is great what the fuck is wrong with you.
>>58404849Eviolite sets had real usage in Gen 5, but then it dropped off massively in Gen 6 onward due to Knock Off being buffed, and virtually every Pokemon with a physical attack stat worth a shit being incentivized to run it because it's free big damage in PVP.
>>58405090I was shocked looking back to see that somehow blissey is more popular than chansey in gen 5 nowadays, and ranked higher in the vr. When did that change happen? I was also surprised deo-s and deo-d were banned, I thought they were allowed in OU?
>>58405113Smoggy's Gen 5 metas have been a victim of bastardizations in recent times, because they can't just leave old shit alone unless it's Gen 3 since none of the other gens have a committed enough autism squad to protest.
>>58405113>>58405129I miss BW pre-BW2. Pre-Keldeo, pre-therian, pre-most Hidden Abilities... Terrakion was a fiend and a nuissance but it was fun, dammit.
>>58404699kingambit is so unnecesary, like, bisharp was perfectly finehe technically is a good design, just not a good pokemon one
