How will they balance Z megas in the mainline games?
>>58780441No. They’ll be even more broken.
Either they'll be nerfed to be a true counter part and the absurd speed is just to suit the ZA mechanics or they'll be a mix of megas and Dynamax and turn back after 3 turns.
>>58780441Gay Z-late ability that does something dumb
>>58780454halves Speed
>>58780450>they'll be a mix of megas and Dynamax and turn back after 3 turnsThey are all fast and frail, 3 turns is more than enough
>>58780470makes sense since Z is the last letter so they should always go last
>>58780441>see opposing team>plethora of already good mons that can potentially megaevolve>some megas like in OPs are a 50/50Mark my words ZA metagame is going to be worse than gen 9, this shit is going to be worse than random loses to unpredictable terastal.I don't think there should be so many megas
>>58780531Z megas are just superior versions, no one is better gonna use the ogs
>>58780441They'll have abilities that would be extremely good if not for the drawbacks that come with them. E.g., Mega Absol's attacks will always crit, but attacks that are normally not very effective do not affect the target at all.
>>58780441Why would they care? Delta Rayquaza didn't bother them either.
>>58780532How will I spam Close Combat and Meteor mash/Bullet Punch without the original mega Lucario?
>>58780532This only applies to Absol>Lucario Z is purely special attack focused >Garchomp Z lacks Ground STAB, a huge offensive nerfMeanwhile, Absol Z is a more minmaxed version of the original mega + more immunities
>>58780636these megas will be far more manageable in doubles, they don’t give a shit about bss, and smogon will just balance these things on their own
Game Freak? Balancing their blatant “stronger-than-regular-Mega-Evolutions” shillmons?
>>58780450>they'll be a mix of megas and Dynamax and turn back after 3 turns.this is what I'm personally expecting.
>>58780532>>58780815Even so, if Z-Absol has a situational ability, it might still be better to run normal Mega Absol for Magic Bounce. Z-Absol existing buffs normal Mega Absol.
