>>55681833>The contemporary meaning for gimmick is and has always been precisely Mega Evolutions and its subsequent iterations.Fixed that for you. Just because it's your favorite one, doesn't make it any different than Dynamax or Tera.
Though, technically, you could include Wonder Launcher in that list too. Bit more of a gray area, because unlike Mega and onwards, you could play all of Gen 5 without knowing it exists. But mechanically, it's in the same boat as the rest of the gimmicks.
