Which mega surprised you the most- either in terms of how good it is or the fact that they even made it.

I did not expect MegaBeedrill. I assumed it would remain in obscurity forever; very happy he's playing with the big boys now.
>>
I always liked bee drill. Tiers be damned. He's cool as shit.
>>
>>25612658
I think Flygon surprised me the most.
>>
Definitely Beedrill or Audino. Who even uses that pink faggot, anyway?
>>
>>25612658
why the fuck do we need mega salamence and garchomp?
>>
>>25612688
I always wanted beedrill to work but it never did. I would catch one and train it but furry attack and twin needle were just not enough to cut it.
>>
>>25612707
or mega tyranitar. All 3 have their niches and really didn't need a boost.
>>
>>25612737
Hopefully they update his movepool next gen

>>25612707
>>25612744
Because nearly every pseudo legendary needs to have one, apparently.

This brings me much sadness.

Lucario didn't really need a mega evolution either. Neither did Gengar and Scizor.

got to keep the power creep creepin'. Soon we will have ultra hyper phantasm 'Ore wa Gundam' evaluations hyper double abilities and triple moves per turn until everythings a complete mess.

I exagerate, of course, but shit's getting pretty out of hand. Did we really need Mega, sorry, 'Primal' legendaries?
>>
>>25612983
It's because they are popular,they said in an interview that popularity was one of the factor to decide which pokemon get a mega.

Mega Vespiquen WHEN

>>25612658

I think mega slowbro was the one for me

>>25613048
it's funny because it's worse than the non-mega slowbro

Brutal
>>
>>25613068

except they're both used for different things. Slowbro is used for longtivity and defensive pivioting because of regenerator while Mega Slowbro is more of an anti-wallbreaker because it's got such massive defenses, scald and is immune to crits.

if you're talking about design, then oh yeah definitely.
>>
>>25613128
Same with mega-sableye. Mega-sable stops all hazards, status inducers, has superior defense, while regular sableye can more easily stop pokemon from setting up. Sableye is more proactive while mega-sableye is more reactive. I personally prefer non-mega sableye over mega-sableye but mega-sableye sees more usage.
>>
>>25612983
well now Lucario is pretty average now
since steel nerf and his speeds pretty bad now

Mega Manectric
his design was so Odd at first but it grew on me

Also i love fast volt turn pokemon and i wanted to try him out and Ive liked using him since then
>>
Mega Beedrill turned out to be far more dangerous than I expected.
>>
>>25612702
Congrats!The best reply in this thread.
>>
>>25613128
>if you're talking about design, then oh yeah definitely.
Mega slowbro looks gay as shit. They could've turned him into a turtle or a hermit crab-esque creature or something, but they HAD to have him balance on his tail. It just looks half-assed and retarded.
>>
>>25613035
Well, duh, Pokemon with inflated stats will be popular. Inflating them even more isn't exactly smart.

Do people actually like pseudo legendaries aside from their bustedness?
>>
>>25613393
They wanted one comedic mega, since the rest are cereal.
>>
>>25613068

I said slowbro because I was surprised they even made it.
>>
>>25612658
Mega Lopunny is definitely the one that suprised people the most. And on top of that, no one actually thought it would be top-tier good either. Perfect example of what Mega Evolution should be about
>>
>>25613411
My favorite Pokemon is a pseudo and that's mostly because he looks bamf.

Yes. Tyranitar and Salamence were great. I personally don't care for Metagross or Garchomp, but I'm sure others do.
>>
>>25613411
I like pseudos (well I'm neutral towards Dragonite and Goodra). I can't wait until we get Mega-Hydreigon.
>>
It was given to a relatively unpopular pokemon

Takes him from shit tier to amazing tier

Keeps in theme with him being a prankster asshole

????
>>
>>25615674

Beedrills still show up in the anime constantly as absolute assholes that attack people at the slightest provocation, so it's not like they've been forgotten.
>>
ITT - retards think megas are for weak pokemon when in fact it's just to make cool pokemon even better as well as give some other guys a new lease on life

I was surprised that Pidgeot got one. Kept trying to use one, but it just couldn't hang. Now, it's a lot more viable.

So the same as normal Slowbro.

Woah, woah, woah
>It was given to a relatively unpopular pokemon
Sableye is mawiles counter part and both of them where pretty popular. Sableye was the first pokemon with no weaknesses and had popularity from that.
>Takes him from shit tier to amazing tier
Sableye with prankster has always been OU. Priority will-o-wisp, taunt and recover saw to that. He has been an anti-lead since Black/white. Also his non-mega form is just as good as his mega and playing with him you often do not mega evolve because prankster is better against the opponent than magic bounce.
>Keeps in theme with him being a prankster asshole
I wouldn't say asshole...

MegaHoundoom Cause I was sure it was one of the pokemon nintendo didnt care about. But what was even more shocking was the horrible ability they gave it.
>>
>>25618017
err by nintendo I mean GF.
>>
>>25612658
hes still not good enough
>>
>>25612707
its because they are popular
>>
>>25615602
goodra isnt psuedo..........its just reg
>>
>>25616795
was definitely the most surprising
