Where the hell are people getting this idea that there won't be megas in Sun/Moon? There's been nothing official about it, at least not on places like serebii or the pokemon twitter/youtube, so how can people say such a thing for certain?

We all know they're not retconning megas. But it looks like there won't be any new ones in SM. It's not likely they would remove a mechanic that has been so firmly established in the anime and past two games.
Welcome to Internet rumors
Because Megas totally outclass Z moves in every aspect. There's no way the two can exist together.

Internet rumor. It hasn't been officially confirm.
>>27554549
you know, besides the concept that you can give one pokemon a z-move and another a mega?
>>27554594
Megas last the whole battle, and Z moves can only be used once.

They will just stop paying attention to it and neglect it, leaving what was done up until now in the games. Like chatot's microphone functionality, feebas needing to be beautiful or babies in general.
>>27554549
Maybe we can choose if we want a Z move or if we want a mega?
>>27554689
What sense does that make? The Crystal either invokes a form that lasts the whole battle or a move that can only be used once? You destroyed a universe with that paradox.
>>27554438
It's game freak logic to remove features, and it's not customization or riding pokemon
What if Sun and Moon take place in the No Megas Universe and the plot of Eclipse is the merging of the two universes

NO! George, you don't get to destroy what came before just because you like your new toys better. Go away.
>>27554627
No, they'll have it in the postgame as an optional side quest.
>>27554759sun and moon will be the only gen 7 games though

It's highly plausible there won't be any new megas, since they're allocating their design clout towards Alola forms/Delta species this time around in addition to the new Pokemon so it's reasonable to assume that there won't be any left for new megas. I don't see why they wouldn't leave in all of the current ones though, it's on the same engine so it wouldn't be hard to re-implement them.
I have to wonder if Alola Exeggutor was originally designed as a mega though.

Simple, so the game with all the megas that comes after gets double sales.

Didn't Masuda say that Megas would be back, and even that there were new ones.
