Will Gigantamax forms ever come back? What are your favorite ideas for new Gigantamax designs?
>>59111909I don't see why they wouldn't. Legends Galar is probably gonna bring them back.
Yeah, with how popular Megas have been since their return (despite what veepee contrarians would have you believe), I think Gamefreak is going to bring these type of gimmicks back when they thematically fit. It’s just another thing to keep in their back pocket to bring people back.
>>59111930That will be epic.
>>59111909Will they? Obviously.Will they be popular, hype or will anyone give a fuck? lol noThey will continue to be failures just like everything G*lar has been.Megas will forever continue to be king.
>>59111909I'll take more GMaxes over NuMegas
>>59111909We already know they're coming back because of Legends: Galar sometime in 2028-2029 (depends on when Winds & Waves DLC drops, whether it was also pushed back or had to stay on-schedule similar to Legends: Z-A), and then they'll get added to Champions to make their mainline return.
It's honestly pretty sad how most of these are outright worse than just normal Dynamax.
>>59113385It was probably the worst gimmick for this reason. The forms that should have been the center of attention often ended up being shit compared to the "they just get bigger" forms.
>>59113015I give a fuck
>>59113385I like how a lot of them are also smaller than a regular Dynamaxed Pokemon too, hahahaha
>>59111909>Will Gigantamax forms ever come back?Possibly but on a much smaller scale so you can use them anywhere (like a Legends game) rather than being stuck to 10 stadiums in the whole game.

Just retcon Gmax and Megas into the same power up gimmick. They’re Megas when not near power spots, and Gmax when near power spots.
>>59113385They’re not a very well thought-out mechanic. Right now I feel like there was some discourse internally regarding gimmicks — some of the Gmax look like they could’ve been Megas, some of the newest Megas look like they could’ve been Gmax.I can’t help but feel like Gamefreak’s policy is now “go design some shit and we’ll figure out where it can fit”
>>59113025Gross
>>59111909We need a GMax vs Mega War in Legends Galar
>>59113385>Niggas at GameFreak seriously gave Corviknight’s Gmax move the effect of Defog for ONLY your opponent’s side
I rather GMaxes overNuMegas
>>59115742Sup toiletgatr
I do find it a bit amusing how batshit insane some of the Gmax forms are. Orbeetle is a UFO, Duraludon is a skyscraper, Alcremie is a wedding cake, Meowth is fucking longcat. They definitely couldn't get this ridiculous with megas.
>>59113385how many of them were even good? the chip damage quartet and lapras? the entire mechanic is just a flop where tou actively don't want to use it because it makes the pokemon worse. absolutely fucking baffling.
>>59115768Probably the ones where the normal max move is just a debuff for a useless stat like attack, special attack or speed. So dragon, bug and normal. But there aren't actually a lot of these ones. Off the top of my head Butterfree and Duraludon. Normal of course Snorlax is good.The main problem is the terrain and weather ones and stat boosting ones being too good. I feel like g-max moves should just also have the normal effect on top of it.
>>59115738It's a reference to gen 4/5 defog, you wouldn't get it
