>tfw the only way to run Gen7 Mega Bee on showdown is in Balanced Hackmons
>>30805762
AG also allows it, doesn't it?
>>30805790
I doubt it, AG still works like any other tier except you can do whatever the fuck you want in it
>>30805790
Nope, the beedrillite isn't in SM at all so it's treated like a hackmon
How did they buff Mega Beedril?
>>30805790
Mega Bee is in Unreleased tier, which can't be used anywhere
>>30805841
Speed changes now apply as soon as you mega-evolve. Before, Beedrill would have to run Protect so you didn't just get blown up turn 1 by a faster opponent.
>>30805858
also they buffed Fell Stinger
>>30805841
This >>30805858 + fell stinger buff
>>30805841
Aside from Fell Stinger buff, all Megas have turn order recalculated upon mega evolving.
Beedrill no longer has to run Protect to avoid being outsped
Leech Life
Fell Stinger/SD
Poison Jab
Knock Off/Drill Run
This set alone kills 90% of the current OU.
>>30805858
excellent news, I've always liked the design
>>30805999
>excellent news
except you can't use it until stars
>>30806035
Doesn't Bank update in January?
>>30806049
can't transfer mega stones
>>30806054
oh
oh no
>>30805836
>breedrillite isn't in SM at all
holy fucking shit, are you serious
I assumed that they were all in the game's code
>>30806085
They are in the code. Enemies use them in facilities. It's just impossible for players to use them and they are by all counts illegal.
>>30806035
>Stars
Stop this meme
>>30806106
>Enemies use them in facilities
This is what annoys me the most. Cheating AI in battle tree get to use my favorite megas but I don't. What the fuck is Gamefreak's problem?
>>30806054
Kek. This is how Game Fug addresses Gen VI power creep; by removing Pokemon greatly buffed by the Mega Evo SPD recalculation.
I suspect it's so Alolan mon aren't curbstomped by Mega Evos that much. Not really surprised that Mega Evos are banned in VGC17 either.
>>30806230
>by removing Pokemon greatly buffed by the Mega Evo SPD recalculation
and yet leaving OP shit like m-scizor, m-pinsir, m-sableye, m-gengar, m-lucario
>>30806250
Forgot the most ridiculous of them all, mega mence.
>>30805934
145 is still an average speed tier though. It won't make it OU
>>30806293
>145 is still an average speed tier though
fucking power creep
The fact that he got buffed but you can't get his mega stone tells me he'll be distributed as an event of some sort.
>tfw caterpie is in game but not weedle
>>30806281
>mega mence
Not mega Fug
>>30806313
130 scarfed or gtfo
>>30806230
All the megas for good mons are still in
>>30806313
Scarfed Pheromosa is an actually used set
>>30806293
I feel like this has something to do with why a bunch of Gen 7 mons are very slow.
The speed creep is fucking out of control.
>>30806049
Yeah, but mega stones are untransferable, and its not like game freak will issue an update that lets you get the mega stones for other pokemon either.
>>30806744
Introducing slow mons isn't the solution. Especially if said mons lack recovery
>>30807034
We will likely get an update to the game that adds the missing mega stones, not doing so would be too much of a stupid move, even for gamefreak.
