One banger and two flops. Emboar remains one of the most disliked starters ever and people vastly prefer base Feraligatr over its trash mega. This series really needs creative guardrails.

Meganium's only Fairy-type move is Dazzling Gleam. If it got Pixelate that would also not even help it since all of its Normal-type moves are Physical. It has absolutely no reason for that secondary typing, it hurts it so bad by introducing a 4x weakness to a common offensive type.

It's such a shitmon that it is frustrating. Why did they set it up to fail so hard?
>>
to the fags who dont like mega emboar genuinely whats your issues with it?

it seems the most organic and natural out of the 3 on what an "advanced" form of that mon would look like

>>58814266
He gets Adapability to boost Dazzling Gleam to 160
>>
>>58814329
The only way I can see M-Meganium getting salvaged with its ZA movepool is if it gets Drought so that way it can actually use its fat spa for Solar Beams and Synthesis gets jacked since the fucker is still slow and will end up taking hits

It's called waiting for Champions since Legends games have shallow movepools.

I know base Emboar is going to be unpopular no matter what, but I've seen better reception of his mega in multiple polls online than Mega Feraligatr. Even just the fact that both megas for Emboar and Meganium are seen as improvements while Feraligatr's Mega is seen as a downgrade speaks volumes. I only wish I knew what the other two's mega placement is in the Japanese poll.

I wonder if gamefreak ever planned on completing the Romance of Three Kingdoms trio with later starters.

Emboar = Zheng Fei
??? = Liu Bei
??? = Guan Yu

maybe when we get a Chinese region.
>>
>>58820889
Which type would they be?
>>
>>58820892
Liu Bei would be grass since he is the kind and merciful one(despite tossing his infant son in anger at one point in the story)
Guan Yu is the arrogant one so water type.
Zheng Fei is the hotheaded one so that one clears.

Any collectable item worth comes from its market rarity and/or demand.
Emboar has less demand despite being as rare as the other two megas, and times rarer than other more valuable cards.
Compare Emboar scores in the polls, art, etc and you see a pattern.
