Do they really think players will have the attention span to get the remaining half of mega evolutions over the span of 5 years? The fact that they didn't launch Mega Sableye this year despite putting it into game code, and that they keep re-running the same few Mega raids over and over.
Niantic are aware of how OP certain not-yet-launched mega evolutions are, and are deliberately going to hold onto the likes of Mega Rayquaza for as long as possible.
All the good shit like Mega Lucario, Mega Tyranitar, Mega Salamence, Mega Metagross, Mega Diancie, will take forever to roll out.
We'll be lucky to get Mega Sceptile, Mega Swampert, and Mega Blaziken as part of Hoenn Tour.
But, then what? A Sinnoh Tour in Q1 2024? A Unova Tour in Q1 2025? A Kalos Tour in Q1 2026?
Do they really expect us to wait three years to get Diancie? How long as they going to make use wait for the fucking Galar Starters or any new Pokémon from Paldea?
We've had the fucking Mimikyu hat for years, and a Pikachu dressed up like Mimikyu, but still no Mimikyu itself. The rollout of Alolan Pokémon has been a fucking joke, are we waiting until Halloween 2023 for that too?
