How do they cope about missing the roster of new megas with Dragonite, Meganium+Feraligatr (but no Typhlosion), Skarmory, Staraptor, Froslass, Excadrill, Scolipede, Chandelure, the Kalos Starters, Hawlucha, and Golisopod?

Are they using Mega Drampa and Mega Eelektross as god intended?
>>
there are no luxray fans
>>
I care more about these guys getting something.

But then that just means they'll be shit competitively.

I’ll always use Shell Smash Torterra in NatDex Monotype as a late-game sweeper

It’s usable enough for me now

Is Infernape now the worst of the three?

b-but plass did something with luxray right
>>
>>58510337
Empoleon has a unique typing in NatDex has all its tools

Torterra at least is a Shell Smash merchant, which you can get away with if you know what you’re doing (and one that isn’t /Rock or Water, making it stand out more)

Infernape hits like a wet noodle without a Choice item and not even the fastest thing alive anymore. That’s a bad combination in today’s meta
>>
>>58510284
My cope is that Mega Flygon would probably look ugly as shit anyways. I've yet to see a Mega Flygon concept that doesn't look terrible.

Luxray? I was never a fan. Tried using one in Gen 4 and got the most disappointing electric type ever.
>>
>>58510284
Luxray is getting one in dlc at least
>>
>>58510570
No it’s not and neither is Flygon nor Haxorus

Hell non of them are in the DLC dex at all

Most of the megas in ZA look either boring as fuck or memes. There is no excuse Mega Flygon would've look any worse than the average mega we got
>>

>Most of the megas in ZA look either boring as fuck or memes.
That's exactly why I think it would suck anon. The older mons in particular got shitty Megas. From a design standpoint, I really do not that Flygon can handle having any shit added to it, and GF apparently agrees.
>>
>>58510284
It's been 12 (I think?) years. There's no need to cope. I'd also it rather not get a silly/goofy or shit mega, anyway. I'm just happy that the Trapinch line even still shows up in games.

As for Luxray... The thought of it getting a mega has never even crossed my mind so the thought of it not getting a mega evolution doesn't bother me.
>>
Why does the mega cutscenes only play in some fights?
>>
>>58510928
I think it depends on whether whether you've already triggered the mega during the current play session

Luxray feels like a tough one, I also thought Pyroar felt like a tough one and we saw how that turned out so makes sense.
Some Pokemon just have more room for a mega than others, one thing fanartists forget is that megas ARENT actually an additional evolution and dont follow the same design logic, they're far more limited in how much they can actually change from base. Almost every shit mega from XY, ORAS, and PLZA feels shit because there was no room left to fit in mega design elements.
Flygon however DOES feel like you could fit more in though, at this point he hasnt got one probably because either all the fanart making it impossible or a worry they wont meet fan expectation on such a popular mon (albeit popular only in the west and only among a specific demographic within the west).

This is why out of the leaked DLC megas, I am most excited for Baxcalibur (a mon I dont really like) and most worried about Golisopod (a mon I like), not because of the fact I like or dislike them, but because Baxcalibur has a very unfinished feeling design with a lot of blank squishy space that can be expanded on, while Golisopod feels fully finished and at most they can just tweak his proportions which will probably look goofy.
>>
>>58510284
I feel like Roserade and Togekiss both deserved one too
>>
>>58510337
Infernape still has the niche of being fast with will o wisp slack off and a dark resist.
>>
>>58511173
Where do you even take togekiss into for a mega, it's an egg an egg bird and a plane bird.

If I wanted to meme I would turn it into a togetosaurus because birds are modern age dinosaurs but that's just a weird meme

>Luxray? I was never a fan. Tried using one in Gen 4 and got the most disappointing electric type ever.
Luxray is arguably the single best Electric type of all time as an in-game run mon in Gen 4.
>>
>>58510581
I’m going to create thousands of intentionally ugly Mega Flygon designs and mail them to Gamefreak so the only possible choice left is to make a good design
>>
>>58511343
ZA has some Megas including aspects of their prevos, Mega Togekiss could gain defensive stats and grow a Togepi-esque eggshell armor
>>
Flygon fan here, I’ve felt attacked ever since Garchomp was introduced and was basically better than Flygon in every way besides some niche stuff. Now Garchomp is cool and all but it getting a mega, one that a lot of people just ignored outright until ZA, over Flygon has always been sad
>>
>>58511513
And now he's getting a second one that will still be inferior to just running Life Orb!
>>
>>58510337
Yes. It's not bad, but of the Sinnoh starters, it's the least good.
>>
>>58510581
are flygon autists really that deranged? lmao
>>
>>58510284
I do not like mega evolutions at all.
So I am glad that neither of these guys have been tainted by it.
>>
>>58510284
Im fan of both and I am ok.
>>
I'm a Luxrau fan and I'm enjoying the fact my main man didn't get a shit mega. He's still a jobber but he's my bro

If anything one of my favorites IS getting a mega in the DLC and I am half dreading it. The new megas are fucking stank overall. I want the new designers to just not touch ANYTHING involving older pokemon because they can't do it

Flygon absolutely should have received a Mega Evolution, but at least there is still potential to receive a regional form.
Luxray could have gone either way. Both a Mega Evolution and regional line would work for it.
>>58510296
I also agree that the Gen 4 starters should get something. Honestly they should have gotten regional forms in Kitakami considering Jacq gives you an egg with a random Gen 4 starter in it.
Watch them get GMax forms in the Legends Galar DLC or something.

Flygon is the 3rd most popular Hoenn non after Gardevoir and Rayquaza

Same with Luxray after Garchomp and Lucario

Rather or not that has to do with these two being the Top 2 most wanted megas since the list base-game Megas leaked, that’s up in the air

Flygon does seem to be quite popular in japan too. Gets lot of fanart there and scored 18th place overall in a SV japanese fan poll.

>>58513092
You always had to until Sw/Sh and S/V

Ever since they make moves like Elemental Punches/Fangs, Drain Punch, Dragon Dance, Play Rough, Close Combat, Spikes, etc. into TMs rather than Move Tutors, they began taking out these egg moves from damn near anything cause of the fact that TMs are consumable again and no longer infinite
