>Pokemon gets a Mega>Puts a large amount of its BST into its weaker offense>Not remotely strong enough to utilize it properlyWhy?
>>59072167i hate mega evolutionid rather just have another tier of permanent evolution
>>59072167Because even though all megas are shillmons, some shillmons are shiller than others, some have to be lesser to make the Mega CHARIZARDs look better
>>59072167Gamefreak being shit at balance like usual
>>59072167So they don’t make it stronger by being stronger on its actually good offensive stat or being bulkier/faster
What Pokemon is this?
>>59072475Then what the point of mega evolution if a Pokemon is not allowed to fulfill its potential?That's retarded.
>>59072494In theory, it's so they can give a mega to Beedrill, and a mega to Garchomp, have both be good, and have megas add a consistent amount of bst for autism reasons. In practice, Mega Salamence exists and is way better than Mega Shitmon any day.
>>59072463Try balancing 1000 party members that can learn 100 moves each
Sir, we crucify Mega Pyroar here.
>>59072507desu, Mega Beedrill would be bad even if MegaMence didn’t exist
>>59072507Except that Glimmora isn’t Garchomp tier. In fact, Mega Garchomp’s SpA is at least usable. You could through out nasty Draco Meteors and Fire Blasts for physical walls, Ground immune steel types, and to hit well after an intimidate.Not only do Malamar, Pyroar, and Glimmora a large chunk into their weaker offenses, but they aren’t even strong enough to be theorically usable. And besides Glimmora, mostly due to technicality as its really good at setting up hazards, a lot of these Pokemon are shitmons too.
Glimmora's a weird case. Its main use is to set hazards and spam Mortal Spin. Doesn't really suit a mega.
>>59072518You mean 400-500 due to evos. Even then you don’t need to do it all at once because comp metas that gf shits out tend to be initially restricted so it’s far lesser batch. The operative word here is “try”, and Gamefreak barely tries at all.
>>59072518Only fully evolved mons need to be balanced that cuts it down 500Legendaries are supposed to be stronger than the average pokemon so can be balanced among each other rather than everything else, down to 420Also Mythicals (which are apparently different for some reason) are banned in all formats to those don't need to be balanced so down to 40010 Psuedos can be balanced among each other rather than with everything ese, down to 390Now completely possible, though still a challenge, if they were really "passionate about pokemon" and believed "each and every Pokemon" was important, they'd balance the Pokemon.
>>59072618>We are passionate about pokemon and each and every one of them is very important to us Clearly not since you fucked up garchomp's mega twice
>>59072518Some decisions are just blatantly unbalanced. Like how Calyrex signature moves have 0 drawbacks and hit about as hard as alternatives (Shadow Ball and Icicle Crash) WHEN its being reduced by spread damage reduction in Doubles.Giving Mega Glimmora more than a 3rd of its BST boost to its 55 Atk is an opposite case of Astral Barrage/Glacial Lance. Shit just doesn’t make sense. Glimmora is a very niche Pokemon, not some strong Psuedo or anything.
