>tfw megas were removed
>>28125056
The only people who want Megas removed are people who didn't get to experience the joy of having an old bro get lifted out of the bottom of the bottom of the barrel and made relevant.
Except we know they aren't.
>>28125093
N-no. Megas were just a stupid idea. The is Pokemon for fuck's sake, not Digimon. Just stop kidding yourself it was a Gen 6 fluke and nothing else.

Kinda like Alola forms, right?
>YFW Megas are removed, Therian Genies are either gone or have their genie stats, and Pokemon actually get nerfed for once.
>TFW
If only. Then we'd be one step closer back to restoring balance to this godawful clusterfuck of a meta. The only thing that could make it better is if they gave real evolutions to all the poor pokemon that deserved them but got megas.
>>28125093
Yeah, if only it were just that I would be fine with it. But then they took other pokemon which were already great and made them even more OP.
it's time to celebratebut we all know that GF would never remove thatbut would be great if they do
>>28125218
Megas give your existing favorites a chance at being better.
Regional Forms at best do nothing because the new form is just as or even shittier, and at worst make your old friends completely irrelevant since it's not just a form change you can apply to your old Pokemon. Which is kind of a punch to the dick especially when they have Hyper Training.
>>28125254
if I vote for Trump, this would happen?
would he make pokemon great again?
>>28125056
Hoping that they're gone.
>>28125325
What'd be better is if they gave real evos to the pokemon they mega'd. That way you could have multiple of your favorites's evos on the same team as opposed to only being able to save a single one.

>hidden abilities
we don't need megas
>>28125339
No.
No.
Memes.
>>28125396
k.
I will vote for Hillary then
>>28125339
Yes.
The Donald will make Pokemon great again with the power of his Meme Magic.
>>28125363
.....but, at the same time, I want them to stay so Pokémon like Ariados or Sunflora get a mega evolution, while heavily nerfing Mega evolutions like Mega Mom or Mega fug.
>>28125379
What Hidden Ability would have elevated Beedrill to UU?
>>28125367
The design philosophies behind most regular Evolutions and Mega Evolutions are quite different, with the approach from the latter being more likely to appeal to those who already like the Pokemon, since they're supposed to be like a given Pokemon but super charged.
Regular Evolutions more often make drastic changes, especially cross-gen Evolutions. There's a reason most Pokemon that people prefer the unevolved forms of are those who got an Evolution in later generations.
And you can always use multiple teams or mix them up.
>>28125420
oh great anon
the other anon(>>28125396) lied to me

DRAGON OF BALANCE

Gale Poison/Bug
but remember anon, not every pokemon was meant to be competitive good
Beedrill is good in earlier game, even without a mega
>>28125527
>but remember anon, not every pokemon was meant to be competitive good
And? Can I be happy that my buddy got his chance to shine with some of the greats thanks to Megas? Should I want Megas gone just because a few Pokemon who didn't need Megas got them?
>>28125581
your bros can be happy with good abilities
>Talonflame is shit without Gale Wings
>Politoed was top tier pokemon in gen V, because of his ability
also, megas doesn't mean good
>Audino got a mega and it is shit
>Camerupt as well
your post is simple: I love megas and I don't wanna to explain
>>28125694
I like Megas because they provide an existing Pokemon with a boost without turning them into a completely different Pokemon. I believe that, for some Pokemon, a temporary "form change" along those lines is a better solution to making them better than giving them an additional evolution whose appearance might not be in line with what fans of the original want (see: Rhyperior). This works well for Pokemon that already feel "complete" as a concept despite only being one or two stages, or for Pokemon who cannot evolve further.
Simply giving old Pokemon a new ability can work wonders, but it is also not particularly interesting. Some Mega designs fall flat, but for others they manage to take a Pokemon's existing traits and expand upon them in visually appealing ways. I believe that, while Game Freak may have stumbled a bit in some regards, there is a lot of potential inherent in the mechanic that I want them to explore and develop further.
Simply put, I don't think getting rid of Megas because there were a few stinkers is a rational reaction. Rather than throw the baby out with the bathwater, I would rather they try to refine and improve upon it in the future.
You, for whatever reason, don't like Megas. I can respect that. But I'm glad that Game Freak added them and look forward to seeing what they do with it in the future.
>>28125093
M-beedrill still needs support to be good , its a waste of mega slot
>>28125197
But anon
>flygon has levitate
>>28125056
Megas are shit. No exceptions.
>>28127902
Flygon can't even manage to kill himself right.
>>28125056
That would be disappointing. I hope they don't cave to the underage Sinnohfetus whiners. Megas are great.
>>28128241
Don't worry. DP 7th Gen remakes will come after SM with new Megas, including the Sinnoh starters.
Search your feelings, everyone. You know this to be true.
>>28125093
Because fuck permanent evolutions, we've got enough of those.
>>28125056
It hasn't been official confirm yet.
>>28129868
How do you know the remakes will come this Gen? Did they say? I don't think anyone's stated that.
>>28125056
Too bad Aloha forms are even worse.
>>28131530
I have an unreasonable hatred for your taste anon.
>>28131536
I'd take Salamence turning into a starfighter to Exeggutor turning into a stripper pole.
>>28125056
>>28125093
the irony here is beedrill still sucks
