Mega Evolution is the cancer Anon! You greatly reduce your friend’s lifespan by putting him through the torture that is mega evolution. We need to start prosecuting the Pokémon abusers who still use mega evolution knowing this.
>>
>>58735896
Mega Latias and Latios are why I'm glad Megas are just powerups and not actual evolutions like some people wish they were
>>
>>58735896
1 is fine
2 is probably the worst
3 is fine if it's subtle, terrible if it's blatant
4 is fine
>>
>>58736333
This, although I’ll add that 3 actually works pretty well for objectmons specifically, so that concept works far better with Chimecho than the others.
>>

OP and his shitty oc
>>
>>58735896
Besides maybe Sharpedo the old ones all do it miles better.
Chimecho is breddy gud too.
>>
>>58735896
2. they could've put some more effort into making Latias even sexier. color change isn't enough

>>58735896
Chimecho and ttar work well enough, but then again a ttar with more armor is hard to fuck up.
>>
>>58735896
3. The worst of 3 is the worst overall.
>>
>>58735896
Pre-Evo is the worst by far
Black can be done right, a la MAbsolZ, and Spikes and shit is based. Merging the forms takes finesse, something GF used to have.

>>58735896
You forgot Greninja in "make it black"

More spikes.
Nothing will make me like that pointless, bottom of the barrel, lazy, edgy shit
>>
>>58736333
3 works fine on some Pokemon better than others.
Mega Ampharos having wool again is cool, same with Mega Charizard Y kind of having Charmelon's horn or Mega Dragonite taking aspects of Dragonair.
It's dumb when it's something like Feraligatr.
>>
>>58735896
Yeah I don't give a shit about Mega Evolutions anymore
>>
>>58735896
1. Black almost always looks good on anything
2. There's at least some creative reasoning behind the choice to merge two designs
3. Paying homage to a pre-evolution is thematic to the mechanic so there's intelligence there as well
4. This is typically the worst one, it literally is just "DUDE WHAT IF HE EDGIER LMAO"
>>
>>58735896
The black ones are kinda lame. Anyway I think Mega Darkrai is one of the best megas they’ve made and it was very surprising considering how the ZA megas are kinda all shit except for that and Golurk
>>
>>58735896
None. Referenceslop and memeslop are the worst. All of those categories can be decent if a designer with eyes and braincells works on them.
Zard X and Lucario X are kino, btw
>>
>>58736333
Impressive shit taste you got here

>Dude, remember the pre-evo? LMAO
because not only did produce mega Feraligatr but they could just. Fucking. Give. Not fully evolveds. MEGAS. Instead of this fucking RETARD SHIT
>>
I'm still mad at what they did to Pyroar.
>>
>>58735896
The bottom three megas are all trash
>>
>>58735896
None of these are really "cancer" as a whole, each one is a mixed bag
There's good and bad examples for all of these

I hate the second category from the image so much.

Give each Form it's own separate equivalent Mega Form, not stupidly combining them. It's stupid design-choices like those that have negative permanent results. It shows a lack of foresight and care that a franchise like Pokémon needs. Meowstic and Pyroar, who have clear distinct Gender Differences, have a Mega shared for both Genders, and now that's just a thing that's canon now, instead of us getting a separate Mega Male and Mega Female for them. Mega Tatsugiri also could have been done better, at least there are different Mega Forms, they just could have made them more distinct. Mega Latios and Mega Latias are just way too similar, Latios and Latias were already quite similar but still distinct enough, yet the Mega Forms make them near identical, in this they're separate Pokémon.

The
>Dude LMAO
Cancer
>>
>>58735896
I was incredibly disappointed to find out that Latios and Latias had the same mega form, so 2. I think Tatsugiri is ok though, they actually tried to differentiate the 3 alts.
>>
>>58735896
Mega Feraligatr pisses me off, they could've cut the hood down the middle and made it look like wings or something while still keeping the combined head gimmick
Instead they made that retarded shit stick straight up
>>
>>58735896
Only more spikes is bad on conceptual level.
The others may have some shit representatives, but that's fault of the design not of the concept (you can't tell me Mega Chimecho looks bad just because it has the same concept as Mega Toilet).
>>
>>58735896
Why aren't Mega Gengar, Ampharos and Dragonite in "remember the pre-evo" category?
>>
>>58738542
Must be a coprophile to consider that a win
>>
>>58735896
At least Tyranitar incorporates the prevo aspects into the base form in a way that makes sense for the design. I wouldn't say it's subtle itself, but it is in a way that Feraligatr and Chimecho aren't. It always had spikes, so let's give it a head spike; it always had a color piece on its stomach resembling a prior form, so let's change the color from blue to red as a callback to another form, which, in combination with more black spots (something it already had), we can make a face and the red will make the face look more agressive.
>>
There's good and bad of each design philosophy, but I'd say from a concept perspective, the "prevo" category is one of the better, but tends to be the worst in execution thanks to designers just slapping references on like Feraligatr, while the lore writers try and come up with illogical bullshit to justify it.
The "make it black" doesn't always make sense from a lore perspective, but is also one of the more innocuous categories.
Merging forms can be done well, but it's a lazier route. Sometimes makes sense (chimera cats exist), sometimes doesn't (why did the female lion suddenly grow a huge mane).
The "markings and spikes" is the worst concept in theory, and the execution tends to be very hit-or-miss as well.
