Pokemon LOVES to rip-off other less popular monster collecting games in any form. The most blatant plagiarism comes in the form of Rotom Dex which originates from Yokai Watch's Whisper. Now, Megas and Giganmax were indeed infact ripped off from Digimon and Yu-Gi-Oh! too. The Z moves are even from Yokai Watch as well!
And this particular trend of stealing has already begun way back in gen 6, which still carried into future gens because GF is creatively bankrupt after gen 5.
