Why did no one care about this?
Its the most popular pokemon of unova.
>>
>>59309329
because it’s just chandelure except retardedly overdesigned
>>
>>59309331
I like it
>>
>>59309331
>every mega

>>59309331
Cope that's how actual chandeliers look. The original Chandelure is like some cheap Made in China "chandelier".
>>
>>59309329
it's just not that interesting
>>
Because it's just good. That's all. "Yeah, I like it", you say, before making 10 threads about how fucking stupid Mega Feraligatr is and laughing at the funny long legs Mega Starmie
>>
>>59309329
its uninspired, and I think making it a big chandelier like that kinda takes away from chandelure's natural charm, it just looks better smaller.
>>
>>59309339
>Cope that's how actual chandeliers look
Yes and Chandelure is a Pokemon, not an actual chandelier, which is why the design fails.
>>
>>59309353
Thats why its a temporary form
>>
Meta wise: it’s a shame its speed tier puts it in a shitty too fast for trick room too slow for a normal situation. The defense boosts still put it at 1-2HKO range against most threats considering its hp. Doesn’t help that in champions everyone and their mom uses basculegion.
Design wise it’s just ok. Yeah it’s more chandelier-y now, and the eye closing thing is cool, but they could’ve made its flames burn a different color (regular flames blue, shiny flames white gold), or given it garnishments that are not generic gold chandelier aspects.
Personally I think they should’ve used this opportunity to make the first Rock/Ghost type by making the chandelier crystallized like pic related and then give it some cheap rock coverage so that it doesn’t totally break the game with that special attack and rock type coverage.
tl;dr missed opportunity.

Are any of the za megas actually good? I always just see them get shit on. Both w.r.t. design and competitive play.
>>
>>59309329
How do you know no one cared about it? It was voted probably highly on a Japanese mega poll

You don't see the problem, personally? It has charm? It has soul? What about [other thing] you ask?
>>
Because it's just "fine". Nothing spectacular, very basic. It's barely even an upgrade competitively speaking.

If it had gotten Shadow Tag though...
>>
>>59309402
So far only Mega Froslass and Floette are actually great. Mega Golurk, Meganium, Crabominable are pretty decent, but most are bad.
>>
>>59309395
Why would they remove the fire type stupid nigger
>>
fucking retarded ability. It's a Mega Evolution, give it a peak ability. Honestly it should have gotten Contrary. It isn't fast enough to make it over-centralizing but it sure as hell would hit really fucking hard with it
>>
>>59309329
Needed Levitate
>>
>>59309463
>Floette
Do they just fucking hate Florges or something?
>>
>>59309369
And that's why megas are a shit concept.
>>
>>59309329
This thing is literally doing the same thing as dudunsparce lol
>>
>>59309402
Floette, Froslass, and the pepper one are all good. Golurk, Crabomimable, and Meganium are less common but not bad. Glimmora was popular for a bit but fell off. I’ve also seen Skarmory used well. So far, the others seem to be either difficult to use or a waste of a slot.
>>
>>59309528
You forgot the off-meta queen Delphox
>>
>>59309563
Oh yeah, I did. I knew I was forgetting something. She still shows up every now
And then too.
>>
>>59309329
No one cares about megashit
>>
>>59309329
i think it would be cooler if it looked more like an octopus/tentacled creature
>>
>>59309597
they do but only for mega CHARIZARD and LUCARIO
>>
>>59309513
if they're such a shit concept why do important pokemon like CHARIZARD, Lucario, Garchomp, etc get them.
>>
>>59309608
Important Pomemon like Glalie?
>>
>>59309613
its more important than Flygon
>>
>>59309512
>one upped by her prevo in both Kalos games
Being a Florges fan is suffering.
>>
>>59309329
this >>59309331
it doesn't do anything interesting or new with the concept. Just makes me "more" of what was already there but in a way that makes it seem less emotive
>>
>>59309474
>why would a temporary form that changes a pokemon's typing 18 times out of the total of 93 megas, meaning it happens about 20% of the time, change this pokemon's typing?
