>>14391256>A game is a form of entertainment. If the monster collection aspect is big to you, having less new pokemon to collect is a reduction in your entertainment and thus potentially your enjoyment. As a consumer you can decide that it's therefore not worth your money. The ability to decide what you value and what your money is worth is what a consumer is entitled to.Very true. But complaining that Mega Pokemon are not worth as much as intellectual properties because they don't take up slots in the pokedex, despite that finding their stone is as complicated as many conventional methods of evolution, is like criticizing a turkey sandwich for not containing enough double A batteries.
>They've said megaevos are for final stage pokemon. It'd certainly be ridiculous for a fully evolved pokemon to be weaker than the prevo because it can go super saiyan.Currently. But there is no reason they can't change that if they feel the need. Mega Evolutions and incredibly easy to insert into the game mechanics.
>Which brings me to one of my points, which is that Gamefreak seeks to appeal to many with a variety of designs. More pokemon means a larger variety, which means they have more chances of hitting on something that appeals to me.But that's my point. What's the difference between a regular pokemon appealing to you, and a mega evolution appealing to you?
>No, as a forme. Megawhatevers are the equivalent of a glorified Giratina Origin. If you value forms on the same level as fully new pokemon you can, but don't try to insist that I should.Mega Evolutions are clearly more different than any other forms in the game. And I don't value them as much an entirely new pokemon, but I sure as hell value them as much as when a Jigglypuff becomes a Wigglytuff. They got their own Pokedex entries.
A more logically argument is that Kalos includes fewer basic pokemon than what is normal for other generations, though it includes more evolutions than compared to other generations.
