Megas back then had a “this but bigger” look to them where as the ones in ZA look more like evolutions
>>
>>58430245
Chandelure is pretty much Chandelure but bigger
There's always something about the new Megas that was done before
>>
when XY came out game freak were spooked about the godawful reaction to BW's designs and lost faith in their ability to take risks with designs
they're a lot more confident to play with peoples expectations now than they were then
>>
the ZA ones look more like "we fucking hate you people for making us bring this mechanic back, enjoy your hideous parodies"
>>
>>58430638
the only good thing about gen 6 was that it honestly had a lot of very solid designs, so i think they should go back to feeling ashamed
>>
>>58430662
This kek
>>
>>58430255
This, people are always looking for a random excuse to justify disliking the new designs instead of just being a normal person and saying "it's shit, don't like it"
>>
Yeah that Mega Starmie look very evolved
>>
>>58430662
Which is weird because of all the gimmicks they've gone with it's the best one. Tera is worst btw.
>>
>>58430747
they just hate making pokemon, i feel like that's been pretty obvious for a while. they resent that everything else they makes flop and put as little effort as possible into the new games as petty revenge
>>
>>58430245
There's not one single design philosophy, lots of them are "exaggerated feature" some are palette swaps, others look more like evolutions.
>>
>>58430255
While there's no realistic scenario where mega chandelure would have been anything other than a fancier chandelier, if we're purely going by XY design logic, it would have been a buff, thicker chandelier. Maybe with exploding flames.
>>
>>58430245
>look more like evolutions
And as always, they fucking should be!
>>
>>58430845
yeah the new megas are all really great
>>
>>58430638
Nothing says taking risks like taking Tauros and giving it an afro
>>
Shiny Mega Pidgeot is a dragon ball character
>>
I wonder how people would react to Mega Kangaskhan nowadays
I’d anticipate a lot of “low effort trash” comments
>>
>>58431086
i wonder how gamefreak would design mega kangaskhan now

Mega Pidgeot reminds me of this character from Arcana Hearts 3. Not sure if it's just a freaky coincidence.

Yep, I love how Feraligatr's Evo is him wanting to go back to his first stage
>>
>>58431222
Feels like there would have been a lot of ways to do the concept that would have works better. Like just giving him a red toothy helmet and have him on all fours with the spike arms so they naturally look like lower teeth because of there position rather than him needing to swing them out like Luffy.
>>
>>58431222
There's no fucking way they don't hate us to come up with a garbage design like this one.
>>
>>58430245
Counter point all the new mega look bad except frolass
>>
>>58431315
Emboar, Scolipede, Excadrill, Eelektross and Dragalge all look fine. The worst ones are literally the Kanto/Johto ones

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

They even made him do baby gatr noises.
>>
>>58430245
>He says with Mega Victreebel, Starmie, Feraligatr, Chandelure, and Emboar exist

>>58430255
>Chandelure is pretty much Chandelure but bigger
Funny how that, Frosslass, and Malamar are the only good ones

So he fits right in then
>>
>>58431402
Oh noooo lol
>>
>>58431357
I think chandelier is also cool, it's the most "old mega" looking mega as in its literally chandelier but bigger and with more fire
>>
>>58430245
Objection! Mega Banette looks like an evo.
>>
>>58431222
He's refusing to grow up, just like the average pokemon fan
>>
>>58430713
True. Mega Evolutions were always shit. Why didn't they just make the megas of Banette, Audino, and Lopunny evolutions?
>>
>>58431222
>FUCK GO BACK
