Don't care, neither will see use once mence comes back.
>B-BUT
It will.

>>59160928
I fucking called Glimmora getting adaptability. I knew they weren’t going to give it a random +35 attack if they weren’t giving it a blanket damage boost ability.

Anyway, I’m predicting prankster for Malamar now. Priority topsy-turvy and hypnosis will be its niche.

Tell Kojo to fuck off, he's the one forcing it.

Mence will have to make concessions

>Froslass kills it unless it exchanges bulk for speed for the coinflip (if veil isn't up and/or Incin isn't on the field)
>Floette kills it if Incin is on the field
Those are just the megas it doesn't want to be on the field against. The moment Dondozo comes back is what it fears the most.
>>
>>59161422
Dondozo must be getting a nerf if fucking Tatsugiri can Mega after it dies.

>>59160928
the only value of mega scovillian is burning everyone before it dies in two hits
>>
>>59161687
This. If you click an attack with Mega Scovillain the game crashes.
>>
>>59161687
...And the only reason this is a safe strat to begin with is because mons who can exploit it like mence and Ursaluna literally aren't in the game.
>>
>>59160928
I mean sure if you kill most of the dex and tailor the meta to make the new megas shine yeah those are the better megas
>>
>>59160928
it’s fascinating how wrong /vp/ usually is
>scovillain is useful
>glimmora is strong
>meganium is totally irrelevant
lmao
>>
>>59161687
>A very good ability can carry an otherwise unremarkable mon
Yes, and?
>>
>>59160928
People complained about Glimmora? Regular Glimmora is nice already and the mega hits like a truck, why would you shit on it?
>>
>>59161818
People were assuming Mega Glimmora was bad because we didn't yet know its ability pre-Champions.
>>
Adaptability is perfect flavor-wise for Glimmora too, because 2x is the same as the boost from Terastallizing into one of your existing types

So it's like Glimmora is Tera Rock and Tera Poison at the same time

35 points into a dump stat is why people were negative. Having an extremely power spread move and move speed certainly helped the outlook
>>
>>59161801
You easily can slap the ability into a shitmon like Magcargo and nothing would change

Wait for this fucker to crash the meta too, it's basically Mega Kyurem. And I'm not sure how good will Mega Tatsugiri will be but if you can just add it to the usual Dondozo-Tatsu combo it's gonna be op as well
>>
>>59161837
Magcargo doesn’t have a redirection move
>>
>>59161831
Nearly every mega dumps some points into a pointless stat for balance
>>
>>59161828
>lifeform born out of tera crystals
>evolutionary peak is like it was permanently terastallized into both of its types
Kino
>>
>>59161847
yeah, though it’s usually 10-20 points and not 35
>>
>>59161687
educate yourself:

>>
>>59160928
Actually it was comp fans screeching about the stats. Also Scovillain is still shit.
>>
>>59161408
And the thing is, Kojo is probably closer to being a campaignshitter than anyone else
>>
>>59161681
What's wrong with calculators? They give you a good way to see how a particular interaction will turn out.
>>
>>59161708
No. That's not what they're saying. It's stats are horrible so it barely does damage. I guess it's okay because it could focus more on support, but there's tons of things that do support better.
>>
>>59160928
Most people thought Glimmora-Mega was gonna be fine. Spicy Spray is just such a good ability it can make bad stats serviceable.
>>
>>59161889
campaignshitter tip of the day: garchomp has a horrible attack stat
>>
>>59161889
It does adequate damage without investment because the Mega has such retarded stats. It has average bulk and two super high attack stats, which means when EV'd defensively it has decent bulk and average attack stats for an uninvested pokemon.

>>59161882
He has never battled once in his life.
>>
>>59161687
That’s half of an entire team in VGC and it can distrupt opponents more with Leech Seed, hitting hard even uninvested, and using Rage Powder to redirect attacks.
>>
>>59161240
How did this son of a bitch get a Mega in literally the same generation he was added, after the mechanic had disappeared for years? This is Mega Diancie all over again.
>>
>>59163170
because it mattters unlike flyshit
>>
>>59160928
As soon as I saw Scovillain’s stats, I had the hunch that they’d give Scovillain some broken shit like Moody.
Glad it got Spicy Spray though. Moody is a fucking cancerous ability made worse by how Scovillain is the best Moody abuser.

You posted the wrong mega, get told daily that it's garbage ends up being a meta-defining threat that puts Rain back on the table.
>i-it's j-just because it's f-free!
Even in fanfiction it's the currently most common Mega

Uh huh...
>>
>>59164090
They also had to scrap every real Guts or STAB Facade exploiter, which is even funnier.
>>
>>59164090
Being power crept Patchurisu isn't the worst thing. It's still kind of embarrassing though.
>>
>>59164090
>>59164098
Wait a tick, is that why Pachirisu isn't in the game?
>>
Mouse n Clef run dis
>>
>>59161782
If /vp/ is always wrong then I'd be weary about gloating over Mega Meganium not being relevant if I were you. You never no when you're going to be bullshitted.
>>
Why would 'campaign shitters' care about the competitive viability of a pokemon
>>
>>59164129
Because campaignshitters keep weighing in as if they have valid perspectives and understandings about competitive Pokemon, a consequence of the fact the games no longer have postgame content outside of shiny hunting, FOMO raid events, and PVP.

Admittedly /vp/ was right about Emboar and Feraligatr but that’s not really a hard tell
>>
>>59164090
It's weird that they leave these 2 behind but added sinischa which is basically the same thing but with a good damaging spread move.
>>
>>59160928
It's always the case. Compfags are retarded
